Call of Duty has become like a yearly holiday of sorts. Every November, you can expect a new CoD game to release, for thousands of people across the world to call in sick and begin their climb towards digital dominance. How did we get here?
“Jason and Vince just got fired!” A lead artist shouted, as he rode in on one of the many small kick-push scooters that would typically lay around the studio. He quickly scooted away to some other part of the office space to spread that shocking message.
A friend worked there in production and was miserable due to working with IW and with ATVI. When he complained to his VP about it, he was told...be glad you have a job and are making games.
Sounds about right, but is also sounds like something Infinity Ward would say. They made their own bed and cashed in hard to do it. F em.
That sucks, but that’s corporate America. I mean, they could’ve turned down the money and leave to Respawn too. At least they got something, my corporation would’ve probably expected everyone to go back to normal.
daaaym
"oh we're running ur life? pff get over it, like honestly"
scum
I mean, if my company wants to give me a bonus and raise my salary by 50%, I'd get over whatever the hell they wanted me to. 🤷♂️
Activision developer Infinity Ward has opened a new studio in Austin, Texas, which will work on the Call of Duty franchise.
"Infinity Ward has opened a brand new studio in Austin, TX," reads an advertisement from the developer.
"The studio will work on creating new and innovative experiences for Call of Duty and create state of the art technology to power them. Our studio provides a safe, trusting, and empowering environment to unleash your creativity and help make the extraordinary."
Another dev team for call of duty, like there isn't enough currently........ yayyyy
Well this atleast partly confirms yearly releases are definitely remaining, doubling down if anything.
Call of Duty developer Infinity Ward is facing serious community backlash after claiming to change a Warzone feature due to "feedback."
They did not listen the dis it for the zombie modea only people been asking for this to help the servers run better for months they refused till now hahahah yeah infinity wars is the worst
"Player Feedback" as in some folks on Twitter or "player feedback" as in we surveyed current players?
I don't hate it. I LOATHE it.
Tired
Ewww!
no doubt about it, most people hate it....... its the stupid OCD that make them keep buying that garbage... this time next year, the majority of people will be complaining about the next one..
The game is pop garbage now, its as "casual" as the word itself. There's nothing unique or innovative about the game anymore, just lazy devs cashing in on popularity.
