Is it high time for Activision to really invest in dedicated servers.
Do you remember what gaming was like before Fortnite entered the gaming space? One of the biggest arguments was about loot boxes. Now we have conversations about crossovers, battle passes, and community outreach.
Idk. Loot boxes did disappear and battle passes and in game purchases are all cosmetic. We get free weapons and maps post launch, any gameplay affecting content. I could care less about all the cosmetics.
I absolutely hated the days where weapons were locked behind a less than 1% chance lootbox pull where it'd take 5+ hours to have enough tokens to do a single pull and lazy remastered/remake maps cost you $15 each wave or $50 for the season pass that you didn't know what you'd get and these maps were only available to those that bought it so you get a smaller pool of players match with.
Call of duty can simply not copy the bad aspects of Fortnite? Or is that too out of this world? Like COD, a realistic shooter-just HAD to have Nicki Minaj running around? Or super heroes?
I prefer the battle passes with free maps than the $50 season pass that divided the community. I definitely feel that Fortnite had some influence on CoD having loot boxes with Blackout being introduced in 2018 with Black Ops 4.
Actually Fortnite bullshit ruined Unreal Tournament. Epic are sellouts and I will never have that shitty store on my PC, fuck them and that shit bag Tim Sweeney. At least the community keeps the games alive, I still play UT2004.
The Black Ops Gulf War leaks continue with a list of weapon descriptions giving more info on what you can expect from new and returning weapons.
Recently, players of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone were met with a new bundle featuring the B.E.A.S.T. Glove, inspired by King Kong's armament in the Godzilla x Kong movie. However, the $80 price tag attached to this themed accessory left many Call of Duty fans feeling underwhelmed.
Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash
Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.
I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.
yes yes yes
Dedicated servers is long overdue. The lack of dedicated servers is what killed the fun of multiplayer for me in games like Advanced Warfare and Black Ops 3. It seems like P2P can't keep up with the Exo movements in each game.The older Call Of Duty games would have benefited from dedicated servers. I like playing Call Of Duty on PC because of the better online service but the player count is nowhere as high as consoles.
Lol is that even a legitimate question to ask in 2016?
No no no no no no. Dedicated servers close down. Look at Resistance. I played that regularly and then boom they shut down.
I don't want my online experiences to be on a timer. If spot hey have dedicated servers, allow for player hosted too so the game never goes away like Resistance.
Mixed bag right here, mix bag i say!! I'm for it but they have to at least give us some indication that COD severs wont go down after a year or 2 stretch, heck between cod banked income over the year i cant see how they couldnt afford to keep the servers maintained and running..But then again if they dont offer that option then is P2P isnt really bad..is it ideal (not really) , but i rather be able to play online than not at all.. Just started playing BO3 again, definitely fun especially after not playing it for the last month an a half.
