Following the Wii U and 3DS servers being taken offline, Call of Duty Black Ops 2 and Ghosts are officially dead.
Call of Duty players are jumping into Black Ops 2 for the final time before its Wii U servers go offline for good.
GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 leap up due to summer sales
Well regardless of exclusives, or whatever else there is to play on Xbox or ps, CoD has has still been the top selling game on ps platform since forever also.....so no surprise that the most popular game franchise on any console could easily have a revival due to servers coming back online...this is just credit to xbox backwards compatibility & thats good thing for Xbox gamers.
@Frosty orrrr maybe it’s a breath of fresh air to be able to go back to the peak of the series .. and it’s beem great lol
Why worry when they have OS, Server and Background Data in their hands...
Gaming is just the small piece, at the top left in a few K piece jigsaw.
If you buy a house with cash for 1 million dollars you still own the house. Microsoft don't need to make the money back.
Shooters is what Xbox people play most of the time and that’s about it by the numbers and sales of games.
Unreal Tournament and Quake III were simply amazing ... CoD's and CoD-likes' rise killed the arena shooter popularity ...
Unreal Tournament 2004 is my favorite in the series.
Didn't enjoy Unreal Tournament III, Quake Champions that much.
Too bad Epic cancelled Unreal Tournament 2014 becoz of Fortnite
I got hooked on the QIII Urban Terror mod (and my work colleagues I introduced them to)... LAN Sessions at the closing of the doors at work, into the night , sinking beers and eating pizza..... Good times.
Wow, good games never get old I guess.
CoD will always be a beast of a franchise, and how awesome is it that you can just boot it up or pop it into your Xbox and play, MS BC is really a neat feature.
@crimson:” Shows you that backwards compatibility is a worthwhile feature.”
I agree it’s worthy at the start of the generation when there’s few new generation games but halfway through the generation it’s not a feature.
Now it’s good that this game is finding a renewed life for its fan but it shows a mayor flaw in new games release when a close decade old game is toppling the charts
I don't know if I understand what you mean. It's a feature regardless of the time into the generation.
Let's take Armored Core 6 for example. Let's say I'm interested in checking out the previous Armored Core games, sure would be nice if I could play them on my current-gen console.
We're about 3 years into current-gen and old games are hitting in the top 5 for sales charts in the month.
I do get where you're coming from with older games possibly being better than the newer games, but the feature stays the feature. I can only speak for myself, but when there's a lull in game releases or nothing great is out, I like to go back to old titles. It's just nice to not have to have a bunch of consoles out to do so.
I think moving forward it'll be less and less of an issue as like with the PS5 you can access most all of the PS4 games, but I like going back to PS1 and PS2. Would be awesome to kind of make backwards compatibility a prioritized feature moving forward. Hell, Sony was the first to implement it.
Pretty obvious tips (take cover when reloading)BUT I can tell you from experience, 90% of new players don't do any of these things. So it is a good read for them without a doubt.
It is really funny to play this game after years and years of play way harder and creative FPS. The auto aim sort of kills this game for many players though, but this game was always about getting more people to play. I'm liking the features though. It is almost a fully modded retail game.
One thing these console games need... Gamer owned community ran servers.
Although the first company to make a fps with out auto aim on the wiiu that can also use ir pointing for aiming wins...
Other wise get your perks up! Play play play and then play some more.
These tips are lame imho.
Those tips are pretty generic, every player will have a favourite weapon. The best way to play a game like this is to match your play style.
If you are aggressive you need to be able to move quickly reload quickly and potentially have a large clip.
If you play slow and defend an objective, you need a silencer etc..
Each play style can vary, but most players take the hide in a corner till someone walks by, kill them and then move to another corner.
The best tip, make sure your back is covered and have clean line of sight
Use the stock attachment. Even though the ridiculously strong aim-assist in this game counters it a little, you'd be surprised how many people can't hit sh*t when you're strafing in odd patterns slightly faster than normal. Also puts you more on even footing with SMG users if you favor assault rifles.
Oh and carry either of the lock-on rocket launchers. If you're already using an automatic weapon with a pistol as backup you're doing it wrong. I'm sure people will say otherwise, but you may use it once, maybe twice during the game when you can't reload quick enough, but most things reload quickly anyway, whereas a launcher you will likely use half a dozen or more times per game. You get 75 points for shooting down a UAV, which are normally always overhead, with over a hundred for other score streaks. And trust me, your team will thank you if you're constantly knocking out enemy care-packages and air support as soon as they arrive, making them pointless, all while building your own. You can play a support class in this game.
Already got bored with the game and moved on, but they're the top things I learned when playing it for a week or two.
