The Downfall of The Call Of Duty Series
Vložit
- čas přidán 24. 11. 2020
- After it's launch in 2003, Call of Duty was an instant success, going from peak to peak after every new release, all the way up until Black Ops 2, where it took the title of being one of the most successful series' in the history of gaming. However, following the release of Call of Duty Ghosts, sales and popularity has been in consistent decline, all the way up until the most recent COD - Call of Duty, Cold War. What could have caused such a downfall? Was simply the fact that people got bored over time? Was it a decline in quality? Was it the undermining of the skill gap? This, is the downfall, of the Call of Duty Series.
Thank you guys for watching, like and sub if you enjoyed, Sunny XO ❤ - Zábava
Honestly, being able to see how many players were on the game, map voting, scorestreaks, and especially, chatting with the enemy team and still being able to talk to them next match if no one left was what made it the best time
Exactly. The variety is gone due to the matchmaking system. Being booted after every match is a gamebreaker.
It was so much fun to recognize player names & chat with these people , or flame them or be flamed , whatever it was. At least there was some sense of competition and humanity in all of it.
They really messed up with Cold War in my opinion. Game had so much potential.
Very true, miss it
Chatting hmm I think you mean fighting
Miss this game mate
Games back then are fun
now just lootbox and goddam it every release just fucking same graphics 😭
please just make different .
I don't care work or not .. just different
Calling games shit but advertising raid shadow legends is so ironic
🤣
I would also prefer that he not get paid. Fuck this guy right?
Gotta get paid.
What a sell out this youtber is, I just unsubbed
@@mrfookieman8835 Well they pay you a fuck ton of cash for those those Raid sponsorships so I don't really care, the videos are still good.
2007-2011 was genuinely a highlight of my life due to the Cod4-Black ops 1 era. It was the perfect set of games at the best time. I will never forget those years
This comment is spot-on. That era had the 4 best Call of Duty games back to back: CoD 4, World at War, Modern Warfare 2, and Black Ops 1. The decline started with Modern Warfare 3 which just wasn't nearly as fun as the previous games.
@@dankairgadam8841 i was 13 when Cod 4 came out in 2007. That Era of Cod was my entire later high school life. Every day me and my mates racing home to jump online and play. Some of the best memories 👍
MW3 was ok, but it was the beginning of the decline in my opinion
This syncs perfectly with my 18-21 year old self. Sure I was busy at uni at the time, I still found plenty of time to waste on those games.
My PS3 got yellow light of death back then haha great times definitely the prime years of call of duty.
2007 - 2012 was when call of duty was in its prime, started slowly going downhill after that.
The real reason that led COD to downfall, is that Activision fired the key members that formed the original infinity ward team (Jason west, Vince Zampella). following to that, almost every member of IW resigned to support their former bosses to courts. The original IW team was responsible for cod4 and MW2 arguably the best and most innovative COD's out there, this team pushed the envelope in evey game they made ,since then COD has been in a state of recycle. no wonder the decline, lacking the masterminds that made quality their fisrt priority, . if they had these people still working for the franchise the game would be much different today.
And then the former IW team signed with the equally scummy developer, EA and created Respawn Entertainment, the creator of Titanfall and Apex.
thanks for saving me around 20 minuites of time :)
@@ace74909 Your welcome bro, unfortunatly this is the truth behind cod. i wanted to share this information with somebody out there cause ive done my research in the past, cod was my favorite game, and it seems many people including big channels like SunnyV2 that i respect so much dont seem to know the real reason behind cod failure since 2009
it is so sad that you're right, im so sad that this this way cod is going, becuse cod vanguard is just a joke
Definitely agree the most talented and creative are the ones that get fired while the trash makers get hired

Definitely

This looks like a deep fakr
Obviously
It looked like he was being held at gun point lmao 😅
You left out something. After modern warfare 2 was released, there was this huge feud between Activision and the founders of infinity ward. It ended with the OG devs getting fired and making a new studio called respawn (known for apex and Titanfall). That was a huge reason as to why CoD saw a decline. The people that made the games good were no longer there. Also Activision generally doesn't treat their workers properly and there have been so many cases of harassment of workers from Activision.
Activision is gonna be the reason for COD's death. All they care about is money, which they earn by satisfying the new players with easy games, cringey skins for money,... I could list a lot here. I think if Treyarch and IW (and Sledghammer) were free from such bad publishers, COD would be as good as it was in 2007-2012.
Titanfall 2 is absolutely amazing.
This is certainly the real reason for the decline... you can't just replace the top developers with just anyone and expect it to be as good.
Man titanfall two was sick asf.. And apex was pritty decent for a while.. But sadly EA hoovered up that talent as quick as they could..
@@notyousuf4982 Its good.. But the maps kinds feel the same and the classes may have different ability's but depending on what class you like or not you might just get bored of it..
Your 2010 intro was a huge nostalgia trip which left me with the hope that if I bust off the old 360, open up the disc tray, carefully drop in the MW2 disc and head to the MP menu that there will be teams of like-minded people still reliving the greatest era of COD.
dude, try sticking your 360 MW2 disc in your Xbox one, it's surprisingly active!
Point of advice: DON'T play MW2 PC MP without XLabs. Absolutely dangerous.
@@lambda-m1676 really? Why?
@@unoriginal_name7091 Done deal.

what killed CoD multiplayer for me was the switch away from player-run servers. in CoD 4 and 5 you joined a clan and played on your own server that you could customise, choose every detail about how you wanted to play, which rotation of maps, how often to change them, how many players, tweak killstreaks or remove them, have different games going on for all those options so people could pick and choose
In my opinion, the MW1-BO2 era was so good because the games were so well rounded. In almost all of those games you could pick up the game, experience a good, memorable, and captivating story, and then spend the rest of the year enjoying good multiplayer. I think once they started throwing in cookie cutter stories and streamlining multiplayer development, it was over.
Yep and everyone is all grown up now, I remember I was in 4th grade having the time of my life on B02 and now I’m 18 getting ready to start a real life
Mw3 was my personal favorite

I'll never forget that time I went down in Kino and my 9 year old daughter ran passed me with a horde of zombies behind her and said, "sorry dad. You're on your own." Quality, daddy/daughter time. The good old days.
Did she have a wonder weapon or monkeys

@@TurboNutterBastard nope. An awesome dad. My father's thing was taking me to concerts. Real music I mean. Van Halen, The Stones, Led Zeppelin. Standing in line all night waiting to buy $8 concert tickets. Them good old days too.
I would die laughing xD
I still think Zombies is the most brilliant mode ever created. Not only is it great with friends, it functions well as a training ground to sharpen the individual player. I got several friends to be COD fans just by playing Zombies with them. The gameplay loop is simple yet filled with fun features with a difficulty that isn’t to bad in the beginning and slowly gets harder.
Works at War is super underrated, campaign is amazing, bolt action rifles, sun machine guns, BAR and trench gun were goated. Maps were great too. Id say the only down side was the lack of killstreaks
Agree, the historical accuracy was on point.
@@jme3476 It was one of my favorites and got me interested in history. I have no idea why Sunny said it was "GD awful"

I was gonna say smth similar cause codm is now one of the most popular mobile games bringing together all of the best parts of all the previous cod games (they should still add a campaign and reintroduce zombies tho)
@@dannyygraf True and its a best game too
Mobile was shite ngl, pay to win
@@jaye3431 I've seen better, codm is riddled with micro transactions
Don’t forget about all the micro-transactions and loot boxes in Advanced Warfare and later games. Casual players who didn’t play often and didn’t put money into the games were outclassed entirely by people who dumped money into the game to get weapon variants that were objectively better. Prior games just had you level up to achieve weapons, there wasn’t an equipment gap that artificially added to the skill gap. That was one of the main reasons I stopped playing AW, was because I got stomped by weapons that I wouldn’t realistically get the chance to use
Yeah I know just like this guy czcams.com/video/w7o-lloyuOo/video.html
Great explanation of why I stopped playing...every time i left the game after January and come back it's a whole different game
and sbmm makes the game unfun
Once they began the parasite practice of Kiddie Gambling that.. was the day cod died. And was mutated into a loot grinder for profit.
The game industry has sold its soul to the devil of shareholder profits and Corp greed.
EA was the first sign of the times.
Now we're insulted with broken games and yearly releases of repackaged bullshit.
People hated the Exosuits and jump jump bs in AW.. "don't worry we heard you and changed the formula" then they pushed Infinite Warfare out.. no exosuits.. but the mechanic was still there
They just got rid of the exosuit off the character model.
The rage ensued.
"Dont worry, we fiixed that and got rid of it, also people didn't like payloads, so we scrapped that"
*pushes out that piece of shit BO3*
Still has the same exosuit mobility shit as AW and IW... and repacked "Payloads" into that Cyber specialization BS.
Let's be real, one company did it well.
Bungie. And even they suck
I really hope Microsoft gets Activision in check because in the past few years Activision has been 6x worse than EA
Black Ops 3's workshop is pretty much the only reason I even still play COD
FACTS.
Plutonium is fire too, bo2 Zombies is the shiz
I’m glad I was around during the golden era of call of duty, MW2, WAW, BO1, MW3 were awesome back when people used to speak down game chat a lot, I really do miss those times…

There was a reason why Call of Duty: Black Ops II is considered "The Last Good Call of Duty."
Black Ops 3 was pretty good aswell. Mainly because of the zombies.
@@russiankodiak6849 Yeah, mainly. After COD: Ghost came out, that's where it went downhill.
@@russiankodiak6849 zombies saved bo3
Tbh, Blacks Ops was the downfall of COD, but zombies saved it and the multiplayer dynamics/gameplay was superior in Black Ops II than Black Ops I , but still not superior than MW2
@@Slimenator I disagree with that. Some say the downfall started with MW2 because it felt like playing an action blockbuster game made from Michael Bay instead of actually being a "realistic" military game like COD4: MW. The main reason people play COD is mostly for the multiplayer, so I think BO2 and MW2 handle it pretty well.
Call Of Duty 4 and WaW will always have a special place in my heart. The former being when the engine changed and so did the world when it came to videogames, and the latter for introducing zombies. So many countless hours on each! Nowadays I'm not into it all that heavy anymore. Modern Warfare series still remains my favorite series of all times (new and old) but my taste for multiplayer has really dwindled down. Nowadays, as of last month i discovered DMZ (similar to Escape from Tarkov, only more forgiving) but then as of a couple of nights ago started playing Shiptment 24/7, only because i wanted to start having my own camo for my weapons and it was the quickest way to do it. I'll always love Call Of Duty, as I've been a long time loyal fan for the last two decades, but alot of things have definitely changed, some for the better, some for the worst
One of the best memories i got from cod was the first time i played cod black ops for the first time on a friends house and we went to zombies mode. That was One the most tense stuff a 12 years old could experience, miss those times and old cod in general

Legend thank you very much
I’ve been saying this as someone who has been playing since mw2, and have spent considerable time playing CoD4, Mw2, BO, MW3 and BO2 at a competitive level. It is so simple to revive this series. People want Call of Duty to be enjoyable and want to play with their friends. Fortnite in 2017/18 proved that.
To me the solution is simple -
- Remove SBMM, or tone it down significantly
- put fun kill streaks back in
- remove the unnecessary 500 attachment options. Players want simplicity. 1-2 attachments like MW2 or Black Ops was the best
- spend time developing fun maps
- keep lobbies together after games
- being back map voting
- bring back OG game modes - Demolition, CTF, etc
- Bring back Ground War
- remove micro transactions and pay to win
- ultimately, if CoD wants to be on the map they need to listen to their fan base and want to not take advantage of the players. It’s so simple in my mind to create a fun game again, because it’s already been done. Mw2, black ops, etc were some of the most successful because of the simplicity and fun the game was designed to be. Now it’s designed to sell you as much shit as possible
I personally hate that COD Ghosts was hated on so hard. I honestly genuinely enjoyed that game and had tons of fun playing it. IMO advanced warefare was the real nail in the coffin.
Man it’s sad to see these times will never be repeated… but I’m happy I lived and experienced the first cod4 online days. Truly legendary times. Everything was new and the community was epic.
I miss those days too. That was back when the internet was the wild west, no censorship to be found anywhere. I miss the budding days of online games & internet forums. I hate what they have become in recent years.
Halo 2 brah
always logging into the same server (on PC) and meeting the friends you made there aswell as your personal Nemesis made CoD4 so special for me :D
MW2 Remastered 2022 lol
Yeah man. The internet was a different but better place then.
learning to play cod as a child back in the golden era was a grind for sure
I miss the bo1 gold camo grind
@@Kbxbigbro808 yeah black ops is the best cod game
I never was big on the COD multiplayer, but absolutely loved Zombies back in the day. I loved the arcade like nature of the game and how it was a fun cooperative experience. My friends and I spent many a night on BO2 Zombies back in 2012 and 2013. Heck, for as awful of a map as it was, Tranzit was still fun just for how much we'd troll one another on the map by leaving each other behind and watching them run after the bus. Town was definitely my favorite though. Simple and fun.
i loved cod4, mw2, mw3, bo1 and bo2, but goddamnit bo3 was amazing, i still play bo3 zombies to this day, as this video mentioned, *religiously*

I remember almost going insane at school having to listen to everyone go on about MW2. And that was 10 years ago?! Damn.
Yeah I remember going to college in 2009 and you could always rely on CoD as a conversation starter with the guys lol
The skill gap was great. It meant that unless beeing on the very bottom of the skill level, everyone got their shot at beeing the dominating one. That’s why I, despite beeing average at best, willingly came back to the game. It’s annoying to be rekt by a chopper gunner, but then you are motivated to play more, to get matched with lower skilled players eventually. Getting better increases the probability of that happening.
Im not some fan of COD but its sad to see the downfall of COD hope you guys made memories
I wish you mentioned that Bo3 had probably the best zombies mode for a lot of people, mostly because of Jason Blundell and Zombie Chronicles, and overall great maps and story.
Don’t forget mods on PC
This is sunny he only focuses on the bad parts of newer games (and Fortnite seasons in the Fortnite decline video) in these videos
Yeah Black Ops 3 zombies was probably the best zombies, had everything for both the new and old fans at the time. The multiplayer was sort of enjoyable tho the micro transactions ruined it
I hated BO3 zombies tbh, the gobblegum was just another ridiculous way for people to pay more money, I also just weren’t a fan of any of the maps tbh
I disagree with everything you just said there personally to me cod 1 had the best cod zombies and best story and black ops 3 was shit my reason being you die too fast when zombies attack you you get stuck and they can beat you to death they are able to sneak on you and kill you easily.

This series will always be in our hearts, I remember the Xbox 360 days of coming back from school and 360 noscoping with my friends... To bad they made the games over monetized and futuristic
Games aren't supposed to look old forever nigga
Good luck trying to no scope or use noob tubes now, they are practically an art and skill to master on your own now, and if you can pull it off flawlessly match to match, you are the outliers within the community.
As for now for no scoping and quick scoping, you will have more luck on PC then console players, not that it is not a managable skill to master any more, but damn they nerfed it and is way hella hard to pull it off now, especially if you're console players, which in turn gives an unfair edge to PC players since they can be more precise.
This is what happens when the devs listens to the lower on denominators, who also happened to often be the most vocal, than the actual mass fanbase. We end up with a game made for the minority, marketed for the majority.
Is a terrible a game? No.
Is it a great game? No.
It's an okay game.
Let's not even get started with the server issues, especially within MW 2019.
For a wealthy game developer/studios I expect better then being able to play 3 or 4 matches in a row before having to wait 10 or 15 mins between lobbies 4 to 6x in a row while transmission error code pops ups - effectively wasting an hour to an hour and a half trying to find a lobby.
With any other game I have ever owned this has never been an issue.
We all know good memories never gets old
And the old cods were the good memories in our hearts
I still remember the fun moments i had in mw2 and bo1 and 2
Futuristic didn’t kill the franchise tho
Have fun with your WW2 shooter buddy
I lived the height of the Call of Duty era and I remember me and my friends connecting every day to play together.I believe the game failed to evolve and create that sense of community it had back then.For a kid in his early 10s logging into Steam and playing with other people you didn't even know felt almost like as If I connected on Facebook.Going through Prestige Ranks actually meant something and unlocking that final colour scheme was HARD.
Another reason for their downfall is that Call of Duty did not experiment with different physics, play styles etc.I would love to see an installment focused on realism or on alternate history.
I miss 07/08. Playing CoD 4, WaW and Halo 3 with my friends after school. It was a glorious time.
Completely agree with everything that was said in this video about the decline.. BUT I do think a big point was nostalgia of us coming back from school and doing the same thing over and over and over again. You spawn, you shoot, you die, but we were happy with doing that for 2-12 hours every day online with our mates. We all miss the glory days of gaming when it’s all we looked forward to after Friday at school.
Yeah, but there are kids going through that now that aren't in love with the CoDs of their generation and doing the same thing. Hence the decline. You make it sound like the only people who think CoD sucks now are the ones who were there when CoD4 or WaW were the newest games.
I’m 16 and loved warzone with the boys but I’ve played cod since I was 9 and I feel like I mainly play just cause my mates do the game offers nothing

Playing MW3 as my first COD was the greatest time of my life. I have so many memories playing with my frieds….
It was years ago, yet time flies so fast. Its sad
MW19 is the closest thing so far to mw3/2 feeling which is why I came back after quitting when b02 came out and MW19 is still going hard
The increasingly greedy monetisation sure didn't help. It is ironic that the thing the publisher did to combat the decline was causing the decline.
Still remember cod big red one as my first cod ever

I remember being so excited to come home after school and hop on bo2 or bo3 with the boys. Ahhh the memories
I will never forget crawling across the ground and watching that nuke go off. It was absolutely surreal to see the cloud coming at you and knowing there was nothing that could be done about it.
Personally, I think that a lot of the decline of COD was that it simply ran its course. As time went on, every COD started to feel just like the last. They were left with the option of taking risks that could backfire or playing it safe and watching as the audience got bored. They went with the latter.
I hear you & this opinion is really common from what I have seen online. But I personally disagree. I think COD started to die when they listened to people complaining that it was "more of the same" every year. COD started to die when the devs started to try different things (Like jet packs & nube toobs) I think if they would have just ignored the people who were complaining about the "samey" gameplay, they would have retained their original audience, which happened to be huge at the time. The die-hards honestly just wanted more of the same. If they wanted something different, they would have just played a different game. & once COD did change to become unrecognizable from its roots, the die-hards did indeed go & play something else. Hence why the playerbase for COD has dropped dramatically after BO2, the last "real" COD.
This is just my hot take, but that is what I observed playing thousands of hours of COD when I was young & carefree. I would have never stopped playing COD if it would have remained the same game that I fell in love with.
I'd argue sbmm and the movement toward rewarding low skill is what has killed it... its really the only thing I don't like about modern warfare 2019 is sbmm ensures that every game is a sweat fest of meta weapons...zaps the fun out of it.
on the other hand games like Counter-Strike exist which prove that games can last very very long, as long as the devs dont fuck shit up
@@SugaryPhoenixxx 100% all the way and even tho i played bo2 for like 3 4 yrs after release i consider mw3 the last real cod. bo2 is just the very early stage of them over complicating things... start with futurism then add 500 wildcards, 100 perks, and 3000 skins. bo2 didnt have that but the concept the game held and somewhat design led to what cod is now in a way
what. they constantly changed things up from future shit to past shit, more zombie stories, then br and mobile games like cmon bro
I remember getting cods 2 and 3 when I was like 7 or 8 and they were old even then but the games were cheap. Those are still some of the best gaming moments I remember

Best cod game ever
I thought ww2 was one of the best cod games, one of the very very few recent ones however
The only good thing to come from Cod WWII is the breakdown of wings of redemption.

I thought the zombies from WWII was pretty good, and they made the multiplayer better towards the end of its lifespan.
@@SuperSuplex I agree

Yeah but they add new guns, maps, and stories and the concept of the game itself is simple enough to stay quite original. Tbh I think cod isn't bad when compared to the madden series. Finally I'm not trying to argue with anyone I just thing its a good game because it may be the same thing every year but at least its not football games which have no room to change unlike cod which adds new content with each game
There’s new shit in every cod game, almost nothing is the same
Ea sweating nervously
personally i think that the wartime shooter genre as a whole is beginning to collapse. if we look at battlefield their franchise is also losing favor albeit not as fast as cod while the revival of the medal of honor franchise will most definitely end in failure not only due to the loss of popularity of cod like shooters but it's a franchise that hasn't had any relevance in gaming for over a decade. if anything not only are we witnessing the down fall of cod but of all shooters like cod
To be fair, CW is making a major comeback for the series, zombies being better than it ever has been (appealing to many different audiences), and Multiplayer good like it always has been.

I feel like cod ghost was verry underrated playing since cod 2 big red one to now at least cod ghost still has map votes, force chat, dlc actually had new maps and the map changes when you get the moab and certain challeneges to get a special weapon or power up like micheal myers, and the predator etc it actually felt like a dlc, the time to kill was fast felt equal to blolack ops for the time to kill, and so much cuatomizations and awesome perk system and gun accessories, remember being able to change the dog to a wolf and changing the announcers voices.
People just couldn’t handle going from the best call of duty in history to the worst, it just made people wanna stop.
@tacotoucan 69 mw2, the définition of call of duty.
Rip those days
Playing Modern Warfare 1, 2 & 3 was one of the best gaming experiences I’ve had so far. The story/missions, the team and sense of comradeship between the characters. The then sometimes shocking loss of this characters?!? To this day I hold a spot in my heart filled with hate for Shepard 😂
After that the games were still fun, but in a more simplistic shoot ‘em up way, rather than “I feel involved in this story and must invest time to find out what happens” way.
Advanced Warfare was the last Call of Duty I ever played. I didn’t really care for the characters or the story that much, I just enjoyed shooting people but it didn’t feel the same.
Yeah I know just like this guy czcams.com/video/w7o-lloyuOo/video.html
MW 2019 was a glimmer of hope.
And then the promise no microtransactions
We all got excited.
They gave us a solid boots on the ground brawler FPS. It was great.
That lasted all of 5 minutes.
Soon as the Store was added. I knew.
Warzone was released.. and BAM. The promise broken. They shelved MW and focused on War zone. Then they pushed Black Ops crap War. Which honestly just pissed on the ashes of BO1/2 which were some of the best CoDs ever made. And a warzone update for Vamguard broke MW2019 COMPLETELY. The game is literally unplayable now.. EVEN THE CAMPAIGN. How's that even possible?
So I have ZERO faith in Activision, Treyarch, Infinity Ward, and Raven. Atleast Raven makes a beautiful game with good story.. but Activision molests that into a dumpster fire.
Save your money brotha.. CoD is dead.. and it's been dead since Advanced Warfare.
This shit show isn't the call of duty that everyone loved.
I was young when I first played through the betrayal and I was so shocked and confused. I didn’t know that kind of betrayal existed.
@@matthewbartley2746 The MW2019 campaign is playable and i still enjoy it.
@@matthewbartley2746 I agree, warzone ruined call of duty series, the updates are so annoying, mw2022 crap is even worst I miss when cod was all about multiplayer/specops modes and not the battle royal crap
This video almost made me cry. Cod is my entire childhood. I'm gonna miss this.
I love how sonny's old commentary was. Honestly hilarious going back to this
It goes to show, no matter what it is everything has an end

Of course! That's called REALITY! But then, the devs could re-release old skool COD if they wanted to. Blizzard did a u-turn on World of Warcraft Classic, and that old game is still going strong... Today!
If it ain't broke... Don't f*cking fix it!!!
Tips to making a good game:
- forcus more on device compatibility and fps along with system requirements
-make sure your graphics are sharp but any style is okay
- listen to your audience and make updates about their conplaints
- take a long time to make the second sequel and post it in a time of dissappointment
Activision: i just pretend that I don't see this
It's not that simple tbh
The community is always devided and never knows what they want. The cheapness of early CoD games will never catch on nowdays. Shooting at spawn would make people complain and call the game "trash". Some games have the advantage of being able to improve mechanics and listen to Audience like Spiderman: Miles morales, but shooting games dont
I've actually had the opportunity to speak and get to know game developers and the time it takes to sharpen graphics and even make the game is insane. Unfortunately the industries don't give enough time for great gameplay and graphics. Gaming communities love complaining about things but tbh a lot of faults can be traced down to them
Impossible. when the gaming industry already lose it's passion since 2009. As I remember before developers we're passionate to bring a game you can enjoy base on their wants. now it's just "How to make a game that can cash grab the hell out of kids"

I’m 33 years old and we definitely had broadband by 2007 (about half of us had broadband by that time according to the internet). Wasn’t really the ‘dark age’ of multiplayer as I clearly remember voice chat multiplayer in SOCOM 2 in 2003, although it was quite new at that time.
Just hate when Gen Z commenters act like mid-2000s was the ‘dark age’ of the internet when it was more like the ‘wild west’ where everything wasn’t yet settled or streamlined.
I'm gen Z and that confused me. I always thought the internet was huge in 2007. I remember my dad playing halo multi-player religiously around then
I remember when Xbox live came out. I think it was 2003? We had broadband then. I would spend 12 hours playing the Mech Assault demo. 😆
Yeah I know just like this guy czcams.com/video/w7o-lloyuOo/video.html
I remember playing RuneScape on dial up internet around 2005, I think 2007 is about right for broadband. Never forget pking in RuneScape and grandma calls mid-fight and I’m disconnected.
As someone who grew up with the old games, it really is sad what happened to the series
Man I remember BO1 and BO2, when I was very young, and was TERRIFIED to play zombies by myself. And when origins came out in 2013 and all my uncles were playing it
I have such fond childhood memories of playing cod mw2 with my dad who was probably in his late 20’s early 30’s playing spec ops, multiplayer and campaign. I’m pretty sure he reached at least prestige 13 good times, not mention the countless friends I made or all the good times playing infected
That classic sound as the mission details run across the screen in the beginning of the mission; it gives chills.. That development team created a masterpiece.
Seeing Call of Duty go head to head with Halo was peak of the gaming market
I remember they added very OP DLC guns to BO2 and beyond that added also all sort of jetpacks, flying, and more Sci-Fi stuff that killed it for me. And once they stopped releasing on steam they became even more dead. And I think i'm not the only one to think this.
You're spot on about removing the skill gap and making the game less fulfilling. MW2 was the first one I played online. I got it months after it was released and I was terrible at it. The highest k/d ratio I had was like 0.79 but when I had a good game it felt awesome. In terms of killstreaks I think the best I did was get a chopper gunner like 4 times. I had mates who had like 100 nukes by the time the game was winding down. I got BO1 on it's release and grinded out and was good at it. Personally BO1 is my favourite simply because I was the best of my friend group at it. I had a k/d ratio of like 3.something and I was getting chopper gunners and dogs near enough every game. I had friends who were massive MW2 stans and they hated BO1 because they were better at MW2. I guess it's each to their own really, you prefer what you're better at. I personally got frustrated at MW2 for the nube-tubing and 360 no scopes, etc. I felt BO1 was a lot better for cutting that out. Again, I guess it just depends what you prefer. I felt BO1 had a better single player and it also had zombies so that tipped it for me. That being said, I think MW2 and BO1 are definitely the best CODs in terms of online gameplay. I really enjoyed the WAW campaign although I never played it online. Was it BO2 where they had the Alcatraz zombie mission? That was really fun when playing with a group of your mates but I thought the campaign and online modes were dogshit and I'm pretty sure that's the last COD I ever played.
Your story is very similar to mine. BO1 was/is always going to be my favourite because it wasn't uncommon for matches to end at 50-0 with literally all the kills being from me spamming dogs and choppers lol. Sometimes even my own teammates would either quit the match because they were bored of not being able to kill anything, they would kick me from the team, or the other team would rage quit after yelling at me for hacking. Ah good memories.
What's B01??

Cod- increases skill gap with the ability to fly 20 feet above the ground
Reviews- nO SkIlL gAp
The idea of boost jumping is a skill gap in a controlled environment like bo3 or IW even though I hated IW. AW is just randomness it’s the randomness that lowers the skill gap. If anybody can be anywhere at any time you’re going to have a lot of players who aren’t good getting kills just being anywhere shooting people in the back and sides. This is why MW 2019 is the the absolute least skilled game of all time. Not just because of just quick ttk but randomness. So many windows, lanes and random areas in the map for anyone to get a kill. I think the one on one gunfight in AW does take skill because of the boost jumping but in a public match setting, it’s randomness is deterring
AW was my first CoD, because of that it will always be my favorite. It increased the skill gap a lot, there is also a risk and reward sort of deal with exo jumping, because he can be killed by someone you don't even see. I dropped a few DNA bombs on that game, felt great.
ima be honest. MW 2019 brought back vibes from the golden age of bo2. every search n destroy match was just like the old days w all the people talkin shit and overall all the fun moments
You guys ever think about this: once we have our kids ( if not already ) we will be telling them these were the best cod games ever made. They will look at us funny and truly fully never understand how great these games were. It’s sad to think that that’s exactly what we use to do to our parents when they showed us the games they used to play in there younger age. Man I hate growing up.
Damn that’s deep, also speaking facts!!
COD4 and COD WAW felt the most pure, MW2 to BO2 were awesome, and everything after that had some sort of negativity surrounding it. (In my opinion)
It all started when kids arrived at MW2
WaW was peak cod. Ranking system for each game type. Clan tags. mw2 had 3rd person so that was goated
@@DRealPk3 then you've never played BO2 i guess.
@@CoolManCoolMan123 waw was superior
@@DRealPk3 WAW was basically a copy of COD4. Well, not exactly copy but more of a copy than MW3 being a copy of MW2.
The cod advance warfare stepped up on the zombies portion of the game which made me actually play the game for years. Then Cold War game out and it was a game changer with outbreak zombie mode. I would never thought open loot shooter zombie would be really fun. I transitioned from advanced war zombie to Cold War.
I remember being 11 in line for black ops 2 midnight release and then playing after getting home with it, it was awesome. But now that the developers / companies behind the developers have ruined cod it sucks knowing how good the game could be.
2:10 everybody had a lobby like this
lol
Raid Shadow Legends got our boy SunnyV2.
He sold out damn 😔
Can only refuse 6k for 30ish second script to read. You ever make over even 1k in 30sec? Odd yes, but gotta realize these creators are real people with real life problems lol
17:05 eyyyy you credited my boy Longle, hell yeah
I think that one of the reasons for the decline was also the release model. Putting out a new game every year, that is supposed to be similar anyway, was only good to sell as many copies in a short period of time. But then people like me thought „alright, I have to spend money, learn guns, killstreaks etc. just to eventually play the same game”. I would rather preferred if they kept more focus for longer on a single game. Look where valve made it with cs:go.
I agree with this whole video, Warzone and MW 2019 were definitely somewhat of a comeback, they were the first games I wanted to play since Black Ops II. But the SBMM complaints are absolutely valid and I do think it ruined the series
You don't understand
Cod community is toxic they always complain every year diffrent problems every for an example in black ops 4 mp people like blame truth and 402 thunder didn't complain about Three lane maps but the act man and other CZcamsrs complained about three lane maps in mw they go the non three lane maps way guess what 402thunder and blame truth complaing about mw maps and saying to infinity ward go back to three lane maps but other and giving them credit for not doing Three lane maps, people complain about treyarch games bo4 and bo3 being similar but blame truth doesn't with modern warfare they changed the mini map and change the cod formula blame truth is bitching about it cod devs infinity ward and sledgehammer specially they get the most hate and don't know what to do I found on Reddit someone asking devs to stick to standard multiplayer formula and other dude saying change the cod formula . CZcamsrs like ggreloaded and murdashow saying they can never fix the map and spawns issues in vanguard and mw (they can if they add a map maker )always trashing mw Piccadilly and vanguard maps , people say we want this other say we don't want it in the game the devs don't know how to satisfy this community and provide good games , you have people like mrsoldierhd and chainsfeeed showing video of how to exploit spawns on rust how to camp in MW how to exploit sbmm in cold war, you have CZcamsrs like raidaway and other how never say their opinions and keep buying games ever year(Activision keep doing annual release I know they have to do it to keep their CZcams channel but we need to stop buying games so they stop annual release) and Activision plays a big role in this franchise they are forcing devs to release the game unfinished and rushed cod need to stop annual release and have all the devs teams work on a big cod game and the release for cod should be 4-5 rather than ever year.
The devs don't know what to do. Because they get how much criticism from diffrent direction they don't know what's right and what's wrong Infinity ward and sledgehammer should not listen to this community and do what they want to do and be passionate which what infinity ward are doing and slegdehammar should do the same.

2007-2011 was the most best years in the years of COD....COD is like going down into the garbage bin.
The other huge downfall was the removal of mod tools/editing and dedicated/payed servers where players could make their own custom game modes/maps that kept a lot of the older games alive and made a competitive scene with promod. When they removed that they alienated another dedicated player base in favour of casual arcade style gameplay.
But modding was made for arcade players. And how could you say they only want arcade style players when the studio which made realistic games(infinity ward during infinity warfare) couldn't make the games great so they had to bundle it with a remaster of literally the third most influential COD? Only treyarch had the arcady style gameplay and sledge tried best to get people's attention during WW2.

COD died when they removed prestige, removed factions, added fucking clowns instead of soldiers, added a shit ton of useless micro-transactions nobody wants, added a shitty create-a-class system with thousands of attachments instead of the SIMPLE and PERFECT pick-10 or pick-13 that existed, before they added a demonic SBMM system… it’s insane how corporate greed has killed one of if not the best gaming series ever made. If us REAL FANS got together we would make a REAL COD game, a better one than these assholes would ever make. I’ve been playing COD since COD:Final Hour on PS2, and I’m glad I was there during COD’s Peak, my favorite CODs were BO2 and MW3 and in 2024 I’m still praying that someday we would get something similar to them, hopefully… some day.
Cod 4, WaW & even Black Ops were all so simple in reality, yet they had such a depth to their gameplay that made you want to keep going back time and again.
I remember countless all nighters playing S&D, feeling like a boss being the last one alive with a silenced MP5 trying to get the bomb. I stopped after BO and moved onto Battlefield which too ended up removing any element of skill from the game after BF4.
I miss those days.
At least BF1 and to a lesser extent, 5, offer greater level of player flexibility and immersion than CoD multiplayer has ever wished to achieve.
