Modern Warfare Season 3 new maps, weapons and more datamined! Creator Codes mentioned, as well as details on Modern Warfare 2 Remastered campaign pre-order bonuses..
MW 2019 is five years old at this point and on previous gen hardware, but it is still the best looking Call of Duty game to date.
MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.
That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.
I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.
Call Of Duty is back with its yearly instalment, but is Modern Warfare 3 breaking new ground, or just a lazy cash grab? The answer may not surprise you in today's review from JDR.
The original Modern Warfare and Modern Warfare 2 games have been drawing players back in
I really hope we get other activision games on GP soon. My dream would be Scarface but I know the license probably expired
None of those games had dedicated servers on console in the first place? Were always player hosted. Did something change?
Makes sense to release the remaster before the inevitable remake a few years from now.
It's sad that there's maybe 3-4 decent maps in the standard playlists that aren't remakes from previous games and half of them are the new maps that were added since launch.
Backlot and Village are decent choices but I'd like to see more MW2 maps. Scrapyard is already in Warzone so get on it. They need maps that encourage a run and gun style instead of endless camping - bring back Highrise. They also need to let players vote on the maps again like previous CODs so they don't have to leave the lobby every time they're forced to play on Piccadilly.
They're not remastering MW2 multiplayer because they know everyone would play it instead of the current Modern Warfare.
They should delay this year's COD especially if they plan on releasing that remaster.
How are you going to remaster the best CoD ever, and not include the best multiplayer? Gotta make sure everyone buys the battle passes for the current game right Activision?
