Call Of Duty: WWII

This is like an ex trying to get back together with you because they swear they've changed.
 
Looks good. So this will have the French resistance in it. Sweet. Kinda like that old Medal of Honor game.
 
And I don't mind diversity in a game as long as it fits the narrative like women in the French resistance and African-American units in World War II.
 
That didn't stop you from buying the worst version the last 3 years. :grin:

But yeah, i agree. Day one on Scorpio is the obvious choice if you can swing it. Even with the worse performing version, i wouldn't fault someone for getting it on Xbox One S just for the controller preference though.

Owned.

This looked better than anything I was anticipating. I haven't bought a COD since Black Ops and looking forward to seeing this at E3.

On another note- I am not sure how I feel about this installment. i don't mind the WW2 theme, but do we need to storm the beach again? Pretty much every WW2 game was a Private Ryan wannabe, and this looks a LOT like a Saving Private Ryan Wannabe. I was hoping on a different angle, but I guess that's a bit much to ask of a COD.

On ANOTHER note- The game will be fine on whichever system you play it on. No need to Scorpio evangelize, lol. We all know it's more powerful. It's just annoying to bring it up over and over. "It's Da Definitive version!" is annoying when Val does it, and it's annoying when anyone else does it as well outside of specific comparison topics. Even then it's annoying when all it is is bragging.

A different approach concerning Normandy?
 
You can't have WW2 without Normandy in all it's glory. What do you want them to do? Come in on jetpacks instead of boats?

Oh dear god...
 
I don't see the big deal with beach landings. Sure other games have done it, but no game has come close to how well Allied Assault did it 15 years ago.



Sure it's dated now but that s*** set the bar for in your face warfare back then. We all agree the beach landing from Saving Private Ryan was a spectacle of filmmaking and I think Allied Assault nailed it.

I wonder how they'll keep up with the level of customization of the other CoDs. Can't slap a thermal scope on a BAR now. 0/10.

Now that I think of it, a beach landing MP map might be lousy.

If CoD sticks to the usual 6 vs 6 matches, how is a beach storming map going to work with so few gamers?
 
Just finished the Call of Duty Infinite Warfare campaign. Worst COD campaign ever.
 
Trailer did nothing for me. But then I could'nt careless about SP in the FPS genre.

The change of era has me open to keeping my eye on it, but unless they make big changes in map design and removing the god aweful killstreaks then I doubt I will ever get it.
 
I coulda told you that, saved you a few hrs of your life...
I just thought about it again. I finished the game, and of course not only did it not take long, but WTF there was no big ending and I have NO IDEA what I just played. There wasn't even a story. It was just literally stupid.

Oh well, back to working through the Gears of War 4 campaign. At least that is entertaining.
 
Hmmm, I'm interested in this. Loved CoD until they went modern. CoD 2 is probably tied with Halo: CE as my favourite single player FPS.

But.....RDR2 comes out around then too and that might be the only game I play every day for a looooong time....
 
What are the chances Activision improves the matchmaking?

When I talk and want "balanced" teams, I don't want a team to be balanced by having a few good, few avg and few bad players. I want teams to be pretty even where it's unlikely to have guys who go 30-3 and others who go 2-20.

I'm no programmer, but I don't get why it's that hard for the servers to select a group of 12 gamers whose stats are pretty close to each other. And like ranking up and down, as a player does better or worse, they get put into new groupings to reflect their skill set.

Is the programming that hard to do?

Playing WaW lately. Bad enough avoiding the god mod hackers, but nothing like going 20-3, 24-3 and 26-6 and still losing each match by about 10 kills. One game I went something like 32-6 and barely won.
 
There was a video of someone who ran the IPs he was connecting to during games and it matched up with dedicated server banks somewhere.
