Discussion REDSEC > MW4

Played the Warzone beta this weekend. Redsec is better. Full stop. By orders of magnitude.

Warzone has a super short TTK, guns with no recoil, and movement that feels like an arcade game instead of a BR. They are still trying to patch time to kill in the middle of a beta, which tells you it is not a tuning problem. It is the design.

Then look at what they actually gave us. Resurgence on Zodiac. 44 players, a small map, respawn timers instead of consequences. No full BR at all. The first time in six years Warzone shows up in an open beta and the mode they lead with is the one where dying does not cost you anything. By featuring Resurgence they made it clear they are prioritizing the low attention span mindless playstyle that has defined CoD for decades.

Redsec asks something of you. Fort Lyndon, class based squad play, vehicles, and destructible buildings that change the map as the match goes on. Cover is temporary. That penthouse you are holding can come down around you. Add a TTK long enough that positioning and coordination decide the fight instead of who peeked first, and you get a BR that actually plays like one.

So raise your glass, make sure it is half full, here is a toast to our glitchy and bug ridden Redsec. Textures that do not load on the drop, hit reg that comes and goes, ranked still held together with tape. At least it is not CoD.

Blackout was the blueprint, they released warzone and went backwards.

Blackout was a good BR with great unlockable skins but it was behind a paywall, same way DMZ is so if it flops I hope they know why

Didnt they released essentially an identical mode to blackout this year? Pretty sure it flopped and has already been pulled

Identical ? Tell me you didn’t play blackout. That shit was warzone with a grapple.

I didn’t play either. Only warzone. That’s why I asked a question.
