Good fuck this shitty franchise, it's literally just western propaganda the game™

I could have sworn that it was only a few months ago when I saw an advertisement for Modern Warfare II in a pizzeria. Did they seriously spend only a few months making this?

Wait, what’s this in the comment section?

MW3 the $80 DLC which there was alot of evidence of it being DLC

Ah, that explains it!

I kind of wish that the designers explored the World War II setting more instead of a heavily fictionalized modern setting. Maybe I’m overgeneralizing here, but it feels like a lot of WWII titles approach the setting in a very formulaic way: the Allies consist of the Yankees, Brits, and Soviets whereas the Axis consists of the Germans and that’s it; only rarely do any other powers appear, and paramilitaries are even rarer. Several years ago I once griped about how there are no video games where the Italian Fascists are the main antagonists.

The only recent WWII title that’s impressed me is The Light in the Darkness, which is unique because it tells the (Jewish) civilians’ side of the story. Unless there’s something that I overlooked, everything else looks pretty generic.

I'm very confused by COD games. They have three separate studios working on their separate iterations. There's a new game each year and then there is some battle royale thing.

Jesus Christ. There's a literal "war on terror" architect in Activision Blizzard.

They're all basically having to contribute to each other's games now, and they're given shorter development cycles than ever

Infinity Ward, Sledgehammer and Treyarch

Sniper elite is the only ww2 game I can think of where you fight Italians, that or I'm misremembering where you fight germans in italy.

I vividly seing ads for Modern Warfare III at my local train station

[-] JoeDaRedTrooperYT@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

MW3 reboot is basically a giant downgrade compared to the og version objectively speaking. Even Modern Warfare Zombies (yes, Modern Warfare 3 reboot has Zombies), something every Call of Duty fan and even myself wanted since 2009 was a disappointment.

I have no idea what You mean by that bc the only CoD game I have ever played is World at War

[-] JoeDaRedTrooperYT@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 10 months ago

I'm talking Modern Warfare Zombies is something every COD player wanted. The closest thing we have is CoD MObile Zombies (MW3 doesn't count)

[-] PoY@lemmygrad.ml -1 points 10 months ago

same.. only ever played the nazi zombie killing in that

[-] Mzuark@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 10 months ago

Now that's just unfortunate, I was planning on buying that. It must not even be good propaganda.

The red flags were the rebooting of the MW trilogy.

[-] Ronin_5@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 10 months ago

You can see the signs even towards the end of life for MW. As MWII came out, they decreased the quality of gameplay of MW through updates.

Live service games suck
