Community Support: The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

With the recent Quick Scoping debate raised by Treyarch regarding their newest game to be released, Call of Duty: Black Ops, we bring in question some of the well done community support in times past, the terrible community support, and what we can look forward to with Black Ops in the future.

Agreed, the support from Treyarch has been unparalleled for a shooter, and I for one look forward to seeing what else they continue to crank out.

Losi4934d ago

Maybe a Medieval themed game? I'd personally like to see Treyarch take over the Modern Warfare series and expand that in the areas that IWNet failed.

Shackdaddy8364933d ago

I would rather them do an actual modern day war instead of some made up - shoot as many Russians as you can - game imo. Maybe Iraq?

kdogdaddy4934d ago

Someone's been watching Seananners and Hutch... :)

Is quickscoping really that fun to do? Some people make it seem like it's life or death for them.

CommonCent4933d ago (Edited 4933d ago )

Good read. Its true a community can break a game if it's interest isn't kept. You can't "Modern Warfare 2" it out and not communicate with the community and refuse to let them know that stuff is getting worked on and fixed.
Letting everyone know a fix for a game's issues is coming a week before a patch is not good enough, you must address them the moment they are brought up.
Oh and continued development of content keeps interests high not nickel and dimeing through "map packs". Fuck you Activision, Fuck you!

holy hot cakes... This is actually starting to look like they are making some very good improvements to the COD franchise.

64 bit support is not the same as a next gen upgrade. 64 bit has been used for like 12-15 years now?

Modern Warfare 3 Ranked Play Coming During Season 1, Treyarch Handling Development

Modern Warfare 3 Ranked Play will be arriving sometime in the middle of Season 1. Treyarch is once again handling development of it.

I'll bite.
I don't min/max or alter controller schemes anymore because the default options suit me fine aside from aiming sensitivity, which was freakishly low on default.
But the matchmaking system still does that dissemble-reassemble which I hate and knew that my following games after my first overall score would increase In difficulty, i.e. drop shotters (many more examples)

You've got this ranked play but you have this spm scale that throws you against the sweatwall of hell (2 good games>1 bad game)

Swiftly uninstalled and I save 110+gb

MW3 loses a veteran Call of Duty developer of 18 years

Just 24 hours following the Modern Warfare 3 reveal, former Treyarch Studio Design Director David Vonderhaar has announced he’s stepping away from both the Call of Duty studio and Activision.

MrDead254d ago

Call of Duty development, what's that? They just make the same basic game and keep adding more and more MT's

anast254d ago

He probably should have stepped down 10 years ago.

Harkins1721254d ago

Might as well just quit your job now.

anast254d ago

I am sure you know what you are saying...I think.

Rocketisleague253d ago (Edited 253d ago )

He's a developer in one of the most successful franchises and works from Activision, do you know the benefits you get working there? Or the pay?

Half of the peasants on this site don't understand developers are humans and are working mostly for necessity like the rest of us

Stanjara254d ago

He couldn't have done another one.
Best of luck. Good decision.
