Cods catchphrase should be “yup, we made another one”
🤣 you lying
Edit: you aint lying
Kind of like dj Khaled. Producing a shittier version of an old song and acting like it's revolutionary
Activision isn't creative
but they didn't make another one did they 😂
just a reskinned ww2
Same as Battle Field and Medal of honor too..
You said "too familiar." That's the absolute perfect description of every single COD game.
Not really, thats about how every game in a series is, unless you have to completely re teach yourself how to play the sequel
@@gangstagummybear3432 Not really, you can't use a franchise as an excuse for reusing a lot. For instance play far cry 2 then 3 then play 5 or 6. There are multiple jumps in all games (besides 5 and 6, also not counting certain titles 5 and new dawn or new dawn and 6). My point is most dev studios have just gotten lazy so you think it's okay to be sold the same game every year COUGH any ea sports game COUGH.
You just shoot stuff, like any other game...
COD stopped being COD after BO3 anything after that everything just went downhill
@@KevinHernandez-kx6mu not at all
Literally said to myself "Only getting it if zombies is good"
gameranx: "Yeah it's garbage and boring"
Me: "there goes my call of duty streak"
Dont get it dont fall back
Never get it a game for its bonus edition. I got it for campaign and multiplayer and I wasn’t too disappointed but the zombies is pretty bad…for now
I skipped Black Ops 4. Like I'm going to pay $60 for a fancy Fortnite.
Nah better now there's a pack and everything it feels better just waiting for another map of some kind that's all its really fun when you jump in it just can get boring after too long is all
It's boring right now wait till season one that when it's gonna get interesting

"Zombies is the negative of this package"
Ohh no..
Well $70 for upgrade to new consoles I think
@@shadowweaver1599 yet GameStop is bold enough to sell that version for 79$ and call it a deal.
And the graphics look like tetris😂😂😂
Yea zombies is the only reason I ever consider buying a cod to play with some friends
Pretty much all I do is online, and I'm glad they did the free Vanguard weekend because it convinced me to not waste my money on it because the online is a major step back from Cold War
"That's right! They made ANOTHER one"

When games become “too familiar” it’s proof you don’t need to buy every single one that comes out. It’s similar to people who buy FIFA/Madden every year. At some point you deserve what you get for buying the same game with minor tweaks yearly.
People have been telling other people for years to stop buying COD. I'm still playing World at War. Haven't bought a COD since. I was given MW2 and Black Ops, played those, they were alright but I always go back to play World at War on PC. Still holds up. I likely won't ever buy a Call of Duty ever again.
People who buy every year of these kinds of games have no real right to complain
Modern Warfare is the only one I play
This thing should stop man cod assasians creed etc are just the same goddamn game with different skins why the hell people keep buying them
I think MW2019 is all you need right now. It’s still the best in recent years.
I love the fact that every gun has a reflex sight on it...when they were ridiculously rare during WW2
who said that Vanguard will be Historically Accurate ? they didnt focus on that
Yeah. The first real red dot that could be used for normal weapons used by infantry was made in 1975. Before that they were only used in aircraft because their batteries were so big that you just couldn't use it on a rifle.
Also many of the attachments would make the weapons unfunctional. I mean i do like customization, but this is just stupid.
As in, non existent. Those were holographic plane sights that were extremely sensitive and temperamental.
hey man idk if you know this but respawning wasn’t possible in ww2 either, crazy
@@gloomyyyyyy here come the fanboys
"It's really early." What happened to games not needing hundreds of updates after you buy them? the only things they should be fixing should be glitches.
They don't fix anything ever, unless it's a micro transaction issue, then it's fixed within a couple hours. Every gameplay update they release they just breaks it more.
They need to take this game back an re do it it's that bad the graphics are the only thing good about this game that's it.
To be fair it seemed like the “really early” comment was in regards to multiplayer balance/meta and all that
It’s definitely tragic how half-assed games are at launch now.
fortnite is what happened
“Unique quirky soldiers” my great grandfather is rolling bro💀
Ikr nothing like a bit of disrespectful commentary
Idk it's about as disrespective as Inglorious Basterds. The characters are more action moviey then what was reality. But I don't think it's to the point of beeing insulting.
@@Sharcade0 Comparing the passion behind that film and the passion behind these annual 60$ dog treats… If the game was actually groundbreaking or written excellently with passion it wouldn’t be so disrespectful. CoD world at war is a great example of how to be respectful and still tell a story through gameplay in a horrifically real historical setting. Not this breakfast club in the middle of a war zone b.s.
Bubbles :) good to see Trailer park boys fans
It’s obviously not trying to be a serious/realistic WW2 experience, that much should be obvious from the fictional boss character and plot. I see it as more of a setting/backdrop for the game. It feels more like Inglorious Basterds than Saving Private Ryan.
Still wished Activision took years off before releasing a new CoD. I thought they should kept supporting Modern Warfare, but they're the 2K/Madden of military fps.
Totally
Modern warfare was a real upgrade from their usual and I agree, they should’ve stuck to it
I loved modern warfare and people still complained about it.
You do realize every year it’s a different company making COD right?
Cod just fucking sucks. Stop buying it lol
I feel like everyone would be fine with them taking a year off lmao
Everyone except the Activision Execs
If anything 2 years, they should have somehow made mw a bit better like they should not have made it as repetitive, skipped Cold War and vanguard, then take those 2 years and make something huge, but I don’t ever this there will a game like that, they may be fun for a while but that’s about it. There just running out of ideas at this point.
^think
same thing with iphones, new 2k, madden, etc no one needs a new one that barely adds shit each year
People: "uhhggg it's too familiar
Cod devs: "ok how about jet packs?"
People: "noooo it's too different"
Cod devs: "ok so then back to the old stuff"
People: "uhhhgg it's too familiar"
Bro bo3 was my fav cod jetpacks arent that bad
dont defend them eww
The jet packs were stupid... Just like the wall running was.
@@FakeHemuli I liked BO3 but more because of zombies. I hated the brecci and the gravity spike cheese tho
Advanced warfare 2 is what we need
Activision just simply taking a few years off the COD games, would do wonders for the franchise. Less development pressure, more time to come up with new, unique and interesting ideas and more time to really perfect the core mechanics as well as the story, balancing and map design. And more simply, having some time away from a certain franchise builds so much more hype. Look at Halo, hasn't had a new entry in over 5 years, and look how much more excited people are for that (generally speaking). Also, it's not even like the cod games are really bad or anything, like you said, they're a well oiled machine, but too much of anything is a bad thing, whether it is good or not. I will be so disappointed if they release a new one next year, it's probably pretty likely, but a man can dream.
PS: Lots of good points in the comments here! No matter who your favourite developer is, or whether you still play the new cods and enjoy them or not, it's clear that something drastic has to be done sooner rather than later, in order to keep the interest going. I think everyone just wants another truly great cod game, not another 5 "meh" games before 1 amazing game.
well said dude, I will play halo infinite over these three FPS games
few years ‘off’ not ‘of’?
Ya'll do know Activision has 2 different teams making COD's?! Each team brings a game out every 2 years, wich make it possible for Activision to bring 1 out every year. My opinion is that this team always brings out the better COD 🤔🤷🏼♂️
Exactly,they still have a lot of good things in the games,even when they release every year. But releasing every year makes them compromise on cruical stuff like gamebreaking issues and less content in cold war. Not so good flow in maps of mw19 etc. Taking a year off would make it really good,otherwise even if mw2022 launches and it's incredible,people would be so off the franchise they wouldn't have that enthusiasm

As someone who hasn’t played the new cods, I thought it was amazing, of course I saw MW 2019 but never played it, but i’ve been able to play Vanguard and it’s been really fun and it feels so nice to use the guns.
play MW 2019, it's fantastic!
We all have our preferences. You guys are lucky, because as of now the only CoD I can play is Mobile...
Tranzit, moon and origins are probably my favorite zombie maps. The waw version of Nacht der untoten allows you to combine the ammo of both the scoped and non-scoped kar98s so you keep the non-scoped empty and use the scoped kar98 with double the ammo get to really high rounds that way but that only works on the ps3 waw version but on the remake on black ops 3 I think its 3 it does not double the ammo that's just dumb took all the fun out of it for me. on ps3 waw is disc only and my ps3 stop reading discs a long long time ago so its like a zombie map I will never play again messed up.

@@lafrek8145 it is now because people accept it.

They don’t patch it later too trust me
"I still think they should've taken a year off, focused on their other projects" What other projects Jake? Activision literally makes nothing else at this point (activision, not activision blizzard)

It's not only them making one every year, but that with the three, or however many, companies that rotate to release one, it just feels like they end up with a weird circle with each company trying to out do the other like the ESO logo of the three serpents eating the other's tail. Either they just stop toying around and call it what it is, CoD 2022, or just shake hands with each other and release one CoD, maybe every 3rd year. I will say that I enjoy the mindlessness of just hopping into a CoD and shooting the enemies, but I'm skipping Vanguard since I still have like 3 or 4 other CoDs that I do enjoy playing for their story, or multiplayer.
how come no one is talking about how amazing the graphics and sound are? this is my first ps5 game and i cant believe how good this game looks and sounds. i haven't played a cod game since the wii u and i cant believe how good this game is
6:16 "Shout out to World at War"
Bro WAW was the best WW2 based cod game !
The campaign was gritty, dark and violent. Some missions genuinely gave you an idea of how intense WW2 really was. That final mission where you place the Soviet Flag on top of the Reichstag was such a satisfying feeling. And that Stalingrad sniper mission was just so brutal and real !
Zombies, really what can you say ? It's the OG, the one that got everyone obsessed. And that 3rd DLC pack map I think it was spelled Der Reise is easily the best Zombies map in COD history. Super engaging, simple and had just the amount of add ons to make the gameplay enjoyable but not too gimmicky. How OP you felt when you had both a Pack a Punch'd Ray Gun and Wonderwaffe !
And lastly multiplayer.... Really underrated honestly. Sandwiched between 2 great multiplayer games. (COD4 and MW2) It was so short lived and honestly, it had some of the best gun balance and of any cod game. Sure the MP40 and the PPSH we're player favorites but even guns like the Type 100 or BAR we're relatively reliable with the right set up. I even remember all 5 sniper rifles were easily competitive with each other. The player movement was also very similar to COD4s so that's a plus too !
All in all WAS was such a short but sweet ride for me & I'd honestly put it as the 2nd best all around COD game just behind MW2.
Miss those days !
i couldnt have said better bro gj
People didn't give WaW the credit it deserved back in the day.
I would go as far as to say the best WW2 game made!
It would be the best if it wasn’t for the insane amount of hackers and the flamethrowers
Exactly, and I think they understand that but you know most of their fan base is people who just like to play fast arcade shooter so they kinda tries to add few realism at the same time keeping things over the top, mix things up.
Also there is a mission(the jungle one)completely inspired from waw but obviously they made it look hella nice and intense.
I love how the "ww2" sights are just modern sights lol
Ikr
what did you expect ? full iron sigh ? in your dream lol
@@chocho6766 I hate when people say it’s not historically accurate, like no one cares if it’s historically 100% gameplay will just be awful
@@Will-zi6fn The fuck are you talking about? CoD made their popularity by making historically accurate WW2 games in the beginning. Even when they went back on it in CoD WaW, it’s one of their best games ever

The Midway segment of the campaign was my favorite by far.
best games ever were Gears of war 2 and Battlefield 1. The level of difficulty, the graphics.. amazingggg

@@DissTrackTed lmao never, this game sucks ass, cold war also sucked ass, but the campaign is good
i for one would love to see a modern warfare game come and implement alot of the good things from vanguard like the ability to shoot through walls alot of things in vanguard can be fired through making cover hard to pick. I also, like the ability to change ammo type to add certain characteristics to your play style like, FMJ and lengthen, subtle but good in a lot of ways. i believe this franchise needs more transparency as to the make it real war. After MW this game was finally going in a direction i could get behind. MW to me seemed to have less bugs and was the birth of war-zone, in which needs to have least 3-4 different maps to randomize as i know their huge but maybe swhich up the game play modes for those warzones. vanguard does a lot of good but also a lot of bad too, the shotguns for one is by far the most troublesome and they could have found a way to make the paint for your gun's better or at least be something that you could use or want to unlock. A lot of the paints in the game are awful looking and something i would never paint on a gun. Also the mastercraft weapons in pacific, are bugged. They glitch your character so you can't even see, however i see vanguard as it's typical COD fun with average expectancy of what the game has to offer. it's in a sense "what you'd expect" from the title. just feels a bit bland and WWII was very nasty of a war. this game relishes on the wood handle weapons with journeyman's craft grade metal workngs of the gun, they make WWII feel old when if they would have used a lot of the gun play feels from MW would have freshen the title up, instead they repeat the last play style mechanics as cold war (arcade) style feel. this game almost on a level feels like it was made for mobile game play. the maps are good in vanguard (dome) being the loathed map for me this game as i said before does good but has it's cringe too.
I'm enjoying the multiplayer a lot. The campaign was pretty good not as much into the zombies mode but, I will give it a try soon.
An “in between game” was all I needed to know
Just like Cold War
You wasn’t going to play it anyways…….
For a multiplayer perspective, this game is a definite step up from MW and CW. I think if you’re someone who wants to grind for warzone or just likes cod multi, this is a highlight game in the franchise out of the last few years.
@@jessedekrossic facts we need a good one
@@MalikATL facts maybe on Black Friday
COD is just playing the relevance game at this point.. As long as they keep showing up, people will keep buying it.
I wonder when the franchise will actually fall off (like PES soccer games lost to FIFA)
There has to be a game which can show up just as regularly year after year and take away their potential customers
Same with battlefield and halo. When are we gonna get something original also as ur opinion as cod just being relevant. Cod outsell it's competition for a reason. Cod has had many God tier games like black ops 1 and 2. Modern warfare 2 and 3. Black ops 3 has plenty of community on steam with zombies maps. Cod will never die but I would like them to just make a standalone zombies game. It would be amazing. And it would be refreshing
Well they did talk about another modern warfare next year November
@@ghostlegit there hasn't been a halo in years until recently. That's the difference
@@anthonyfernandez82 time frame doesn't matter. I see alot of people criticism of cod for it doing the same thing over and over and Nothing new and battlefield and halo are the exact same.
Agree to this overall. Really liked campaign, multiplayer seems the same as mw19 just with ww2 themes, and zombies is a bit of a bummer
"COD is finally returning to it's World War 2 roots!"
COD: WW2 (2017): Am I joke to you?"
As an outsider, this has been the least hyped up COD since Infinite Warfare. I get the feeling this is going to be considered a disaster once the dust settles.
I think the hype wasn't really there because bad marketing and especially the subpar Beta experience. The beta had all sorts of problems, many of them are now fixed at launch. Ive been playing a day now and even though there is always a "honeymoon" phase, I think I can say with certainty this is an excellent addition. Obviously not everyone has the same wishes for a CoD game. But this is game is really fast-paced, unlike the really campy "tactical" MW2019, and I just like that
(Also Infinite Warfare is one of my favourite CoD games, partially due to its fast-paced gameplay)
I no life’d Both MW19 and WZ, hated CW and really wasn’t looking forward to this until I saw gameplay. Looked clean, but the beta was dogshit and so broken. Pleasantly surprised with how great it feels and the great flow/pacing this year. Refreshing
@@AC-be5gu hardly refreshing lad. Feels like I'm playing MW all over again.
@@binns5302 the greatest tragedy with MW was the fundamental design of MP.
The best engine ever was unfortunately in constant conflict with flawed design. I'm not sure if you at all remember it's release since this doesn't at all feel like that on any grounds other than the base engine.
I'm not saying this one's perfect but yes, it's incredibly refreshing, to have a FPS that looks and feels gorgeous while also having people mindlessly charge around the map. Which is all I look for in a cod
I’m surprised COD is still a living series. They release the same game year after year. I mean it’s ridiculous. I think the best thing they’ve done was release war zone. I actually thoroughly enjoyed playing that. COD campaign plot lines are trash. The multiplayer is mediocre. Like there are games with way better combat. Just a lazy series

They just need to start remastering some of the older better cods. They would make a lot more money with that
They already did that with CoD4: MW, and then MW2, but after that they stopped, I would LOVE a remaster of WaW but it doesn’t really make sense when WWII was out and Vanguard was about to be released, so there was already space taken for WW2 games, as well as BF1 and BFV being set in WWI and WWII, all at the same time

I used to HAVE to have call of duty. The first one and the following couple of semi historical ones were unreal. The original modern warfare was game changing. These yearly updates have become hugely missable.
I agree. World at War and the 2 Modern Warfare ones were amazing. Then they lost their minds and started releasing crap every month. The World at War Zombie defense was intense. I tried their new zombie defense one a few years back and it had none of the charm of the original.

Cool it’s ww2 but if it’s the same game with a different look it shouldn’t cost $60-$90. If anything it feels like a dlc for MW2019. It really sucks that Call of Duty is in the state it’s in as well as Activision. I miss getting excited for a new release of cod and it’s starting to just feel fatigued.
MW2019 was fantastic tho and it really is a matter of don't fix what's not broken. I get what you're saying but the controls are so tight and polished that it's all perfectly well done! You shouldn't have to pay another 60-90 bucks yeah but at least it's well made and it's a shooter taking place in a realistic world, there's only so far where you can take it as it had "realistic" limits.

It's pretty good, pretty rough around the edges rn with some bugs but in a month or two those will be fine in my opinion. Overall it's good, not great just good.

I'm a zombies player as well, and still on the fence about this release. What are your thoughts? Genuinely asking
I got the game at launch and was looking forward to the countless rounds of zombies. However, I was surprised that zombies is only 5 “rounds” of go there do this come back here and repeat. It’s got some fun, but it’s not what I was expecting.
TL DR: I liked going 40 rounds in Firebase Z, the zombies this time is nothing like that
imo, I'd recommend checking out zombies in several months, since it looks like they were hella rushed to make it. Some people assume that a lot of fundamentals will change with this zombies, so just keep an eye out in like summer time or sum.
Wait for a sale.
I play COD for campaigns. But I'd still wait for a sale.
All the modern sights and scopes feel like a missed opportunity to me. It would have been cool to have mostly iron sights to make this game feel different from the more modern cods.
Maps are far to big for ironsights
@Etang Bose iron sights worked in battlefield 1 and V

The modern sight kinda bug me since this is WW2 themed game, sniper scope is okay
2 seconds in and u see the bolt of that Mosin clip right through the scope. Nice
It's good to see them coming back to their roots with the ww2 theme, I still remember playing the original first two games. The graphics really came a long way.
They did it already in 2017

Campaign: 5/10 - not great, not terrible.
Multiplayer: 8/10 - gameplay looks and feels very smooth and very fun. Maps flow nicely. Servers a bit poor as of launch but will no doubt be fixed soon. Gunsmith is pretty overwhelming which is either a pro or con depending on how much you like to customize. Overall one of the better multiplayer experiences in the newer cod era.
Zombies: 1/10 - probably one of the worst zombies in a cod game ever. It’s not round based. Challenges are extremely repetitive as there are only 3. No Easter egg at all.
From what you say, my opinions
Campaign: good then. It doesn't seem like the focus was the story. Just give me something to play through for a couple of hours and we good
Multiplayer: have to agree. Also, having a lot of customization is always good... Except for the balancing team, that's a nightmare
Zombies: well, it seems they said they will add a patch soon for it. For now, let's just do what you do during the game and wait around
Agree with everything but I think zombies will change come season 1
Multiplayer is completely trash
@@topboy9779 feels like a poorly ported mw19 reskin.
WOW!! Really?! Zombies sounds awful. I guess they figured they wanted to mess it up.
To be honest, from what I have seen so far I feel like Red Orchestra did a better job at portraying Stalingrad than Vanguard does.... almost 10 years ago.
I'm 42, is this modern irony??
@@hugozhackenbush681 nah ur just old bro
Ah red orchestra what a game.. hell let loose has a good stalingrad map
Is this worth getting if I havent played a COD game in years? Took a break from games & starting to get back into playing.
Advanced Warfare 2 is what we need. Something to allow them to be creative and innovative. I loved the fast movement, unique guns, interactive maps, it was all fantastic.
Yes ! What about another Ghosts? That was my favorite cod for some reason
@@js_det9137 I agree with Advanced Warfare 2, but Ghosts WTF
@@Skill3dOut i would take a ghost 2 anyday then the cod games that are out now, campaign was terrible in that game i do give you that lol.
@@Skill3dOut 😢
That would be great but then again the futuristic CODs was always the worst received amongst the community even tho this was when I felt like it was the most creative from the developers. I hope it does see a release soon now that we had 3 years of classic COD
Anybody else wish that the campaign was available separately? Id rather play that and just avoid multiplayer lol
Yeah that’s all I want it for the story, I don’t really care for multiplayer.
On the flip side id love to buy just the multiplayer. CoD campaigns have seriously dropped in quality over the years, or maybe Black Ops just spoiled me.
@@redhammer92
Why though? COD multiplayers are way more repetitive/boring than campaigns. And there's too many cheaters
Amen
No. The COD campaigns are really disappointing for me. And Cold War just pissed me off. They had an opportunity to dive into the complexities of the Cold War, such an interesting time, and they produced a shit story. “Evil Russian wants to nuke America.” Thats the whole story. This is so dumb first because it doesn’t even remotely reflect the reality of the Cold War. Also because it’s just so damn one dimensional. What if they just spent some time to construct a story that feels real and motivates you to do the missions? I just personally feel that the stories are bad. The plot lines could have been written by kids. And if you want a linear cinematic FPS, I’m sure there are better ones out there that don’t cost you as much
Feels a bit like the new macbook release. “We brought Back the Ports”
“We have 20 maps at release.”
Should’ve been standard But I’m happy they did.
Not a good comparison. The new M1 MacBooks are legitimately the best laptops ever made
@@IWILLNEVERDIE885 I think he was comparing the 2021 version. Like it doesn't makes sense to get the 2020 (first M1) version then replace it with the new one this year because they brought back ports. Agree not a good comparison though, no one should buy a MacBook every year.
doesnt matter when the maps are terrible and the balance is awful
Honestly Vanguard is underrated once you look past Zombies. MW2019 multiplayer has amazing replayability and I think Vanguard maintains that too.
I like to leveling operators :) 2vs2 mode has been changed and is so good.
“Call of Duty Vangaurd - Never Gonna Buy”
Interesting thing to highlight a game youre "never going to buy" lol, i guess i can say that about pretty much every game coming out
Idk. Myself I don't get tired of WW2 shooters. I'm too in love with historical shooters
But I don't see myself getting anything here that I can't get in better WW2 shooters or a better CoD
I'm still sad Battlefield V sunk itself with the marketing beforehand because that game is pretty solid
This to me doesn't look like the CoD World at War sequel I've wanted since it came out
Hell Let Loose is far far far superior
@@718Hokage und! das! heist! Erika!
You hit the nail on the head with this comment. I couldn’t agree more.
Ive played CoD since it competed with MoH back in the day on pc and was there when the og MW dropped and changed how pretty much every studio does multiplayer with the rank and unlock system. Thats the perspective im sharing from so Ill just add that I was fairly disappointed at Cold War after really enjoying MW 2019.
If you enjoyed MW youll get your money with this entry, easily. All the mechanics from MW are back plus a few new ones in multiplayer like moving while mounted and shooting through destructible cover. Theres so much to unlock and customizing your guns is very well thought out and will surely keep you busy The zombies is the only thin, lacking mode here that feels a bit incomplete at launch. There's nothing much to it at this time other than surviving waves (no story, no real secrets, etc.) Its fun but thin, however if youre following the devs youre aware that new, larger content is dropping in December. The campaign shows effort, voice acting is believable and immersive and the set pieces are fun to play.
Also, shout out to Bear McCeary - the music in this game has no right being this good for an annual releasing franchise. The volins, drum beats, etc. It just kicks ass. When the music kicks off a match and 5 minutes later mortars are dropping and dogs are running lose it just pulls you in.
Anyway thats my thoughts - hope you enjoy it if you buy it. Great job Sledgehammer and Bear
TLDR but yeh
I hated mw
As someone who has never played a cod game before, and wanting to get into it, what game would you suggest?
So this is a strong "wait for a deep sale", ok thanks
Then you will be waiting a while CoD games never have a deep sale. Look for Call of Duty games in Steam and they are all full price. 10 bucks off is probably the best deal you're going to get and I'm not paying $49.99 for a CoD game, maybe $5 since I'm probably just play the campaign and be done with it.
@@nathank3976 it’s crazy how little the cod franchise goes on sale, even cod ghosts is still full price and the 360 cod games are 20+ bucks.
@@nathank3976 it will probably drop about a tenner or 15 quid by December and that's about as good as it gets until the next game is announced.
More like "never purchase, just wait till they hand it out free". Only reason I played WWII & MW2 Remastered is cause they were given to me, like hell I'm paying for those. MW19 & BO2 are the last CoDs I bought with my own money.
@@nathank3976 sad thing is huge games from Ubisoft like origins, valhalla and watchdogs go down to £25 for the gold edition atleast once a month
I was looking forward your take on this installment, thanks for the heads-up. I'll get it on sale, maybe.
Thanks a lot, this was very helpful!!!
Does the controller do anything different playing on the Ps5 version
the characters are great but I feel like the whole campaign is just an introduction to this characters and a prologue....they're definitely gonna put most of the story in the game seasons :v ..........WAW still did WWII best
💯 agreed!
they never put story in seasons , are they really gonna do it?
@@ThornsOfOurTime Well they literally added story in both Modern Warfare and Cold War but in the form of cutscenes in each season
@@kozak1079 oh that, by story i thought it was campaign
I really wish the whole campaign was playing as polina, her gameplay and missions were so great.
she's best girl! Love laura bailey!
tribute to pavlachinko the original polina
Lol I loved this game way more than I thought I would. I legit was ready for 30 minutes of play and I’d switch back to another game but I can’t stop playing. The campaign and multiplayer modes are so much and smooth than I expected. Went in ready to shit all over it but I quickly changed my mind.
Lol yeah ok sure
I played the beta and the game was complete garbage so I didn't buy it.
Who paid you to type this comment? Lol
Bro I need whatever drugs you’re on
I'm excited to get the game I'm really looking forward to getting the BAR and the STG44 back those were my 2 favorite guns from 2 years ago and I had tons of fun and made alot of awesome memories with WW2 I hope that Vanguard is going to be something along the lines of that thanks for the video I'm even more excited now 👍
...
Definitely skipping this cod. I wasn't particularly impressed by the beta so I waited for this video and hearing about how boring the zombies mode apparently is definitely turned me off.
This is one if the best CoD in years
Zombies Is really bad
Team Deathmatch is dope. Only reasons I play COD.
Multiplayer is great. Zombies is basically how it was in Cold War
@@Dannyjedge not even close to how it was in Cold War it’s not even round based
I've never cared much for the MP of these games but almost always enjoyed the campaign.
Personally. The cod campaign i really enjoyed was infinite warfare. I know the majority of people will disagree or say that I'm an idiot. But that is my opinion
@@xgamerunknown6414 Agreed. The Infinite Warfare campaign was the standout campaign of all the future and near-future CODs. The writing stood out to me.
I haven't really played a call of duty multi-player since black ops 2. It's a shame their campaigns are short
@@jaktrapt I mean multiplayer is the whole point of COD really. Buying COD for a single player experience is kind of a waste, there are so many other games you could be playing like god of war for example from a single player standpoint
@@MM-jc7uv I would definitely not call it a waste if it’s a good campaign then it’s well worth my money
Well im getting this tomorrow maybe this was really helpful, thanks!
I just wish the campaign was longer because it really set up good things. But I enjoyed it overall
Could have sold this with just the Multiplayer as CoD: Armorer's Arena.
With all the odd attachments for the various weapons this go around, it really feels like the mad scientist version of gunsmithing. Would probably sell better too, just free the attachments, add a reliability/wear system for mods that really shouldn't go together that resets every match so you can run around with ridiculous loadouts without sacrificing too much fun to balance/"realism" and back it up with the Call Of Duty tried and true multiplayer model and you'd have a repackaged gem you could sell as brand new with a minimal amount of polish.
I disagree as I wouldn't buy it if it was multiplayer only. There's no reason for them not to include the full package especially for the 70 bucks I'm about to pay to play it. Why would you think more people would be willing to pay for less? The last time they tried that it didn't sell well at all. The more you include in the package the more customers it attracts. That's just simple economics.
The last COD I played was the MW reboot...and even that, I can't go back to because it became such a storage hog. Activision really needs to move to a new engine. Some people may not realize that this game uses a HEAVILY modified engine that came out in '99. This engine could buy beer at this point....
IW 8.0?
bro thier new engine came out in 2019 lmao look it up
@@idiopathictendencies8453 IW 8s backbone is based
on the Quake 3 engine.
Now you see, that campaign story idea sounds SO good. 5 different characters from 5 different parts in the war, coming together to create a unique group to fight. It sounds like it would make for an amazing campaign. But then knowing COD they make the campaign last 4 hours and focus everything in multiplayer.
Why cant they just have 1 good campaign game? One that lasts long. One that isnt just move forward to progress. One that isnt just shoot shoot shoot. Give my action adventure COD instead of the same shooter every year.
That would be amazing
It’d be better if it was based in reality, and you can just play as a generic soldier, instead of a “war hero”
Man, I wish they made a strictly campaign cod game. An action adventure fps. A long and interesting story with refreshing gameplay. It’s never gonna happen since they know multiplayer is their money anchor and apparently keeps players around longer than an offline game would.
Cold war had an okay story
Ok so I’m going to game stop but I don’t know if I should get Cold War, vanguard, modern warfare. Please help me with the best decision
if they can sell lots of units, then they will keep putting out same contents yearly, just like those sport games, or iphones.
I remember the cod ww2 cutscenes were so clear then it went back to play dough graphics
Do you know when is the soonest sale for cod vanguard?
Do you need xbox live to play the non multiplayer mode?
I have been buying CoD only for the single player these last few years. The SP campaign just like in WW2 does not disappoint if you ask me. The multiplayer. Well, the last CoD MP that I enjoyed was in CoD 2 or CoD 4. The fast-paced gameplay that you see in most games now is just not for me. I like the fact that the CoD campaigns are a bit more lineair and have a good story, instead of an open sandbox game where you put in 60+ hours of doing side missions which take up more than than the actual main storyline.
you have to be 40
@@Dutchmaster707 30, maar bedankt :)
9 levels that feel like 6 is disappointing for 100AUD, i have buyed indie ww2 games for the same price and got like 15-20lvls.
Vanguard single payer was a huge disappointment
You might enjoy battlefield multiplayer. It can be challenging for sure but it’s not the same sort of fast paced as cod. Specifically battlefield 1 is an awesome fairly new one.
I do wish activision brought ranked to some of their game, for example warzone isn't doing the greatest, and i feel like a ranked would really give the games a bit of a boost.
The last cod I played was BO4. I kinda miss playing COD. Would you guys suggest getting this game? (I only play multiplayer)
Does the ps5 have they terrible trigger feedback in multiplayer if so can u disable it
Would have normally been excited but rn i got farcry6 deathloop and this to finish 😢
noting to complain about
You don't buy a cod for its campaign at launch anyway
Isn’t the campaign the only reason ppl buy cod?
COD WW2 actually became one of my favorite CODs to date and that's just considering the multiplayer. I would have never experienced it if it wasn't given for free on PS4. I rarely buy or play any of the CODs in the last few years, but If this is anything like Sledge's last entry I'd consider getting it on a deep-deep sale. I like Sledgehammer's flavor for the over cooked dish that is COD. :P
Cod WW2 is extremely underrated. Prob my fav cod. That or bo4 or AW
At release cod ww2 was the worst cod ever released, it was atrocious and the game was so lazy made, the original devs put no effort into it and all the players left that dogshit, they ended up getting a new dev team and remade the game which is why it’s kind of underated and not many people came back because of when they last played it but it ended up being decent but still pretty bad because it’s hard to fix the mistakes from the old dev team because of the base game already made, the maps were the worst in a cod game ever, so lazily done and no effort in them so it was hard for that new dev team to do anything with it but they did their best and it was ok, just hard to fix the mistakes from the previous guys
@@rSiika not hating on your taste but your fav games are some of the worst cods according to manny people lmfao, u must be young but hey you love what you love, I thought bo4 was fun but the new cods got nothing to the older ones
@@ILLUSI_O_N-V1 1. I meant advanced warfare not infinite warfare. 2. The reason I like cod WW2 is because I liked campaign and I'm biased towards WW2 games. I can't defend vanguard tho
@@rSiika yeah people HATED advanced warfare, personally i didnt think it was that bad, but man they hated it
I laughed that the normal opening intro which is usually so excited just sounded exhausted and like "uh not this shit again"
I buy these solely for the new graphics and multiplayer. So do you think this will work for me?
I already burned through the campaign and I really enjoyed it. Going to dive into multiplayer next. Never have been a fan of zombies so I couldn't care less there.
considering buying the game only for the single player, how did u feel abt it and how did it play out was it more story based or what
you should try cold war zombies. that game brought be back
It’s really good. I just started playing and I’m hooked
Single player was extremely plain dialogue with the operators and the story is forgettable.
PASS, there is so much awesome coming out now and soon. I'm not wasting time with these anymore.
Yep exactly.
Multiplayer is definitely better, MW 2019 engine with world at war like maps, the gameplay is way to smooth 👏🏾
Whats so great and awesome coming out now and soon???
@@hyp3r-systems838 I mean, Halo: Infinite my guy. Looks better than any new FPS on the market right now, certainly a better option than any of its competition.
What the developers COMPLETELY got wrong was the bombing scene (which starts roughly at 2:24). I am not talking about the obvious over-the-top Hollywood action scenes here - we all love them :) - but a tiny little detail that just struck me: the pilot CLOSES the canopy when going for the bomb dive and OPENS it (here: at around 2:37) only after having released the bomb (and the canopy seems to be open also during all other dogfight scenes, IIRC).
Now in the real world it was the exact OPPOSITE! The canopy might have been open during "normal flying" (including dogfights perhaps), but it was ESPECIALLY open during the bomb dives. Why? Because the airplane (naturally) loses altitude very quickly during such a dive, and in the humid and warm climate of the Pacific theatre at lower altitudes the glass would get foggy (coming from high up and cold temperatures) and the pilot would see nothing.
So yes, you had all the AAA, shrapnel and loud engine sounds all around you, including the (hot) air that was blowing into your cockpit - while trying to accurately place your bomb on the deck - with an OPEN canopy!
Yeah, just nitpicking ;) But given the fact that the developers actually introduced a "canopy open/close" animation makes you think why they got this important little fact wrong (they apparently did do research to some degree). :)
Hey I gotta question here I rlly like warzone but I’m a huge fan of the multiplayer I use to play cod mobile a lot but I just got bored of it anyways my questing is, should I get vanguard or modern warfare
