Geekpulp's Sock Merchant is reporting that the patch released along side the recent Variety Map Pack has inproved the matchmaking experience online. He writes - I have had very good connections for the most part since it was released. The latest patch was released at the same time as the new map pack. Give it a go if you liked you some COD4. If not, I'm sure I'll be killing you in a GTA IV in three weeks time.
Everything you need to know about Modern Warfare III coming to Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass.
Will be interesting to see what sort of numbers GP users draw in come tomorrow. It is believed that this is one many have been waiting for.
Darth,
That is not accurate; this game is old, and most people who want it have already bought it. You might get a small number of subs, but we will mostly see a good influx of players(not new subs) from people with Game Pass who will try it, which is what happened with D4.
CoD: BO 6 will be the test for actual sub numbers.
That's fair... seeing as many have been saying they want CoD in GP. My comment was more of , now that its here... what can it do. Im sure there will be other titles in the franchise that will either entice or turn off different users.
No one's buying a console and signing up for a monthly bill just to get this game to avoid buying it. That's ridiculous. Besides everyone bagged the crap out of this on release for the 4 hour campaign.
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.
...they didn't fix a thing. In fact, since the original patch, it's worse. The "host migration" is so broken, it's pathetic. Also, if you get sucked into a match, without joining a lobby...and you don't like, or just played the map that's currently available...you register a LOSS for quitting. This REALLY sucks if you're only wanting to play the NEW maps, because they've now been thrown into the mix with the OLD ones. Thanks a lot IW...you suck balls.
COD4 I find boring, just tonnes of walking around and then about 2 seconds of action where either you die or your opponent and then more walking about...
won't even let me get in a match and it's becoming very irritating,they need to learn how to patch their games.
they still havent fixed the most glaring issue in that americans who join your game will always become the new host. 15 aussies and 1 random yank = yank host and lag for the rest.
They have till april 29 to fix it or im trading in cod4
But it depends what you like. I honestly dont enjoy COD4 that much anymore. I'll get that urge to play it for awhile sometimes but ends of feeling repeative to me.
They did great work on the for the style of there FPS. But its just not the style I like to play much.
