NoobFeed Editor Tao Dawkins writes - Gamers have seen 14 years’ worth of Call of Duty games come and go since the original release of MW2. Fast-forward to 2023, gamers are in a completely different landscape today, and to better understand the evolution of why the shooter genre has transformed in so many ways, we have to focus on a specific point in time when the Call of Duty franchise made its paradigm shift.
In gaming circles MW3 is a failure outside of gaming circles seems to be business as usual yet I believe this one damaged the reputation of cod.
Kotick wanted it out the door for holidays of the stocks dipped that would of hurt his golden parachute pricing and sell off of shares he didn't care about the following years or ms he wanted cash and a out now devs are free to speak without fear of losing their jobs a lot of the truth is filtering out in commentary and we are seeing how much of a see you next Tuesday kotick is including making death threats to devs and disregarding advice
As you stated, ABK employees have been accusing Kotick of negatively influencing the development of COD MW3 (2023) and Overwatch 2. I recall in 2021/2022 that there were reports that the annual development cycle of CoD was going to be disrupted. MW3 was either not intended for a 2023 release, or it was expected to be an expansion for MW2.
MW3 damaged the reputation of COD? Not the last three games that came before it? CW, VG and MW2 were terrible and WZ2 ruined a lot of of what people liked about WZ. MW3 has fixed nearly every issue that we're problems in the last couple of games and WZ now played a lot more like OG WZ than WZ2. The poor reviews were mainly down to the awful campaign which is justified TBF.
My main gripe with COD are the skins which don't belong in CODs asthetic but it's past the point of no return now.
I loving cod this yr much better than 2 it just the new thing to hate mw3 it's still sold more than any game this yr
MW2 was great from a campaign and MP perspective.
From what I've seen/played, the campaign is all that is lacking in MW3
Call of Duty is similar to McDonald's. The commoners will stop and eat here daily while the educated and contributing members of society will drive on by to the more healthy options with significantly better quality.
It's The campaign and only the campaign that is lacking. All the multiplayer stuff is great in Modern Warfare 3. Alot better then MW 2
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 just introduced their new accessibility options for many players who are currently using it.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 gamers are finding that they're losing everything, including their bundles and rank.
Title should be players not fans. You can be a fan and not own the game so it doesn't affect you
This is correct. The use the term fans because its more divisive. Other times they use the term to be dismissive of real issues because they can always be attributed to the whines of a 'fanbase'. You may not realize this but every title, is designed to be be a clickbait as possible. The titles do not represent anything resembling objective truth and are often designed to hide the real story in place of a exaggerated placeholder.
Videogamer is not unique here but it is especially disheartening when you realize that they DO NOT CARE about videogame news at all. They ONLY care about cramming as much ads up you ass as possible. MY adblocker is shows that the site will carpet bomb your browser with THOUSANDS of ads/ad trackers per session.
They are an ad portal not a gaming site. The titles reflect that.
Oh I recognise all well.
Videogamer are terrible for it, but as you said, they aren't the first nor will they be the last.
man im so SICK of COD EVERY year.. and now its hard to tell them apart.. i saw MW3 multiplayer footage and i SWORE it was MW2.. and the campaign has become a convoluted mess of slow, plodding missions and exposition. ..no thanks.
Tw wad. How's that coping. Just another way jo took a word and completly fked it up
MW3 multiplayer is a copy/paste of MW2 multiplayer. The minimal amount of new maps and guns ( if any ) and a shiny new 70$ price sticker. Casual don't care and Office 365 users already paid the 69 billion for Activision, so Microsoft don't care either.
I’m not playing ranked while some MTX skins give out a free UAV… ffs, doesn’t CoD make ENOUGH money already?!?
What amount of money did you throw away the game’s “ranked” credibility for?!? It has to be severely shy of the costs for production…
