I'm surprised how excited they are about pretty much copying CSGO's Wingman format

Hopefully that will give people more incentive to play csgo's wingman mode. But this is a good example of how awful valve is at promoting their content. Come on, valve, fucks sake

To be fair, this mode is inspired by a mode from Modern Warfare 3 (can't remember what it was called, haven't actually played it).

I am pretty hyped for this game. The gunplay looks tight and fun and the game seems like a return to its roots. Hooray.

Spoiler still hyped though, the og mw games were my favourite

I thought Wingman was some kind of mode against some AI or something. ??‍♂️ Granted I haven't been playing CSGO for a while.

Gotta admit that does looks smooth af though!

Wow another of those trailers where you can't understand what's going on

Watched the reveal earlier and I have to admit that it looks so much better than I expected. It seems to be the COD after many years, which will actually deliver something new. I like.

Definitely will jump into the beta when it's there and see for myself.

But yeah, it's looking good

Might turn out good. Let's wait and see!

yyyyep. That's why I filtered out most "GAMING NEWS!! $$$" youtubers. They just read Reddit, press record and ramble for as long as they can and try to stretch it to 10-14min, then fart that out every day. When they have an opinion, it's always in lockstep with the popular one, to validate their audience and preserve trust.

lol, damn!

Doesn't matter much anymore when the initial steps for promoting a "AAA game" don't go well. They will pay all the beloved Youtuber/Streamer shills to play and say good things about the game, and people are gonna start thinking this is a good a deal. Usually it's difficult to detect (and that's the whole point), but other times...

Games now work the same way as any other marketable products. Companies can literally buy gamer's trust, and it works reliably because most people forget and don't think 2 steps ahead. We're kinda fucked honestly

It does seem like people are starting to react to this though, so there might be hope. Let's stay positive...

Remember, that post was reacting to a dumb IGN video, not a Call of Duty video. Most of the buzz I’ve seen around this game is actually very positive, people seem excited for it this time around.

Not impressed with the gfx - the shadow 'creep' when moving forwards is really bad...dynamic shadow casting, cascade shadows? Not sure what they were thinking with this, and I seem to recall they updated the 'cod engine' to last five years?

I suppose the gfx are not that important, because cod has always been a kidz game for MP, and the SP campaign has been mostly neglected over the years.

These initiatives of journalists actively trying to boot off independent tubers off the platform (for those who don’t know, some journalists went after the sponsors to stop their revenue) reminds me of the devs claiming the streamers should pay royalties.

This is how stupid this is.

Also if game journalists were doing their jobs instead of pedalling politics, they wouldn’t give ammunition (and views) to the likes.

It’s incredible to think that COD now offers a 50v50 option
