Game Podunker Natetodamax writes, "I am somewhat of an achievement whore. Or I was. Or maybe I still am. I’m not so sure. Either way, when Microsoft introduced the world to the Xbox 360 in 2005, they unknowingly (or knowingly?) introduced a new addiction to the gaming population. That addiction is the stupidly simple concept of achievements. By playing games, people can get rewarded for doing certain things such as beating a level on hard or getting X number of kills with a particular weapon. The reward itself is nothing but a set number of points that adds to the ever growing pile of useless Achievements Could Be More points known as a Gamerscore. The question here is why this system leads many people to be labeled as achievement whores..."
Here is a look at the first two maps of Season 6 for Multiplayer.
La Casa involves intense action in a Vill and Koro Village is a battle in the streets where enemies lurk at all angles and shadows.
Modern Warfare 3 is set to be one of the biggest COD games yet features-wise, but it shouldn't leave out one of the best MW2 game modes in the rear view mirror.
Some alleged Modern Warfare 2 pay-to-win elements were recently added, see what they are here and how they work.
The DOG is legit Broken if ur hiding in a room or grass he turns his head even if ur behind a closed door he turns his head and barks letting them know where u at thats PAY TO WIN!!!!!
I hope all the assholes who buy these get stuck in lobbies with each other. I skipped new COD games for a long time and a short time with MW2 convinced me to go back to on a hiatus.
With the skill-based matchmaking (engagement-based would be more accurate), I imagine this will make the game even more miserable for most players when the matchmaking has decided it's time for a tough lobby.
I played the OG MW2 recently on the Series X and it's disheartening how much more fun it is. I don't even care about the balance issues anymore. lol
My friends dont play with me anymore i am former pro player and i even streamed on MLG for RX gaming the team i played for... My KD is always high 5-6kd my friends who i went to school with are not good wht so ever so with SBMM kicking in its always putting us in TOP TIER lobbys and they cant hang now they dont even tell me when they getting on LOL
I recently started playing OG MW2 again and I'm having a blast. Feels like I'm in high school again.
Welcome to COD under MS. It's all downhill from here, they're going to be looking to make that $68B back as fast as possible, at any expense to the player.
The deal hasn't even closed yet you pleb. CoD has been doing stuff like this since the loot boxes in WWII.
Nice try though pal.
Activision has never needed Microsoft or anybody for that matter to act like greedy bastards
why did my 2nd comment about SBMM get downvited LOL?? Do we have people who Enjoy trash SBMM tbh make sense it caters to LOW KD players and u will never get better playing with the same trahs everyday LOL
Probably gonna see more of this BS once the deal is fully done..Gotta recoup that 70B.
Look at Minecraft. The game hasn’t went anywhere since Microsoft bought them. No 4K, no 120fps, no graphics pack, and no Ray Tracing. Just some new biomes, mobs, and more skins as usual.
Same could be said about Rare. Who knows what will happen to Activision once they’re under Microsoft’s roof. We can all take a good guess though.
TBH they did update it by accident then they pulled the update down on xsx and xss i remeber the XSX version having ray tracing but the S did not. Then after people seen that it was updated it was removed that same day
No way !!! Nobody wouild think they would monetize on items that weak asses will use to get advantage during multiplayer action !!! I would never think they would do that ... I mean is a free to play game after all ! /S
Wait once M$ will put their greasy hands all over Activizion and you will see what awaits the "lucky" ones who will play this slot machine of a game. Sooooo Lame !
I think achievements/trophies should be used to improve the gamer, and for proper goal setting. Not for bragging rights.
haha agreed man, but it will never happen. Avatar awards are a fun thing to play for but sometimes you'll put stupid Sh!t (like a Fable 3 crown) on your avatar for bragging rights. AAHHHH when will it end?!
I like them because it gives you a reason to pass a game 100%.
Because there's not too many games nowadays that will by themselves make me wanna do that.
I could care less for achievements. I just get them by playing through and if i get one well ok cool if i dont i could care less.
The problem with achievements is that it killed gameshark and action replay. They should just make it to where trophies are disabled when you do that. That way I can have infinite everything just like the ps2 days.
