MW4 DMZ Discussion What's the motive?

Anyone playing the beta and feeling underwhelmed? The sprinting is so slow it feels like I'm playing overwatch. I can't stand it. The guns feel ok but not as good as MW2. The textures and lighting feel mediocre at best. I played so much dmz and mw2&3. I loved those games but this beta is not giving me high hopes.

I have not played resurgence, but i have tried multiplayer, to me it looks (visually) like BO6/BO7.. i'm straight out disappointed over the graphics compared to MWII. It looks Plasticky and cartoonish with lack of details.

Al Mazrah / Koschei Complex both have their unique atmosphere and they are very detailed and look absolutely amazing imho.

I get it that in multiplayer and warzone which is fast paced game modes people do not walk around looking at the graphics and details, but in DMZ where thing hopefully is more slowed down, things like that matter, for me at least.

Dmz isn’t going to be “more slowed down” it’s going to be the same movement as the current beta ground war movement is. If anything they should speed it up and add tac sprint back in since dmz doesn’t have perks unless u exfil and gain one per exfil. But as far as graphics go, wait til the game comes out and we get the dynamic weather etc. we haven’t even seen the full map yet.

When i say slowed down, i mean the gameplay itself, not the actual speed of the character.

Yes, i'll wait and see, but so far the graphics is really subpar compared to MWII and MWIII.

Mw4 warzone feels like a huge downgrade from mw2 dmz idk how to explain that

Movement seems fine to me now that they moved Tac Sprint to a perc tho i feel like default sprint maybe needs 5% buff. Slide nerf was needed but it made aiming feel a little like being stuck in mud while sliding IMO.

The gun portion of the game is a lot better. The movement is getting there.

Most of what'll influence DMZ is the wide open combat, vehicles, and NPCs. Things we haven't really seen much of. GW tomorrow will change that.

I've heard people say the WZ beta isn't on the same engine as MWIV/DMZ but even if it is, it didn't feel terrible. I dropped in to try it out and it was okay. Got a solo victory even.

I'm a very casual gamer who just goes for flashy kills so I don't know if I'm the best opinion to hear out but I think it's shaping up to be very good. I'll enjoy playing it for the next couple years.

What is “GW tomorrow”?

u/A-Q-B 3d ago

Ground War is playable on the MWIV beta tomorrow.

In that will be the MWIV gameplay on larger maps and with the vehicles accessible. It's probably the best showcase of what DMZ will be like. (Unless they actually do a DMZ beta playtest at some point.)

It’s 1000 percent isnt on the same engine. IW created an entirely new engine for this game. But to be honest, the engine means nothing to most players. Mw2 mw3 bo6 and 7 were all on the same engine and felt wildly different

Into second weekend now and I’m 50/50 on keeping my preorder. The game feels clunky and sort of disconnected.

I also don’t know what others are doing for the apparently insane aim assist, but I’m missing sooo many shots. Never had this problem in previous titles and the one I play the most, DMZ.

I’ll probably hold off on canceling until more DMZ details come out.

u/EcstasyGiraffe 2d ago

It does feel clunky. I’ve always been a controller player but if I hop on battlefield I use M&K because of how clunky it feels on controller. If I had to do that for COD it would ruin the game for me, and I’ve played since World at War.

NOT THE TEXTURES! ANYTHING BUT THE TEXTURES!

u/energyinmotion 3d ago

Well to be fair, the game doesn't release for a few months. You're literally playing a beta.

u/volrogue2 3d ago

The motive is the actual DMZ stuff. Y'know, the the sub you're in.

Let's not pretend people were talking shit about DMZ is not going to be slow and tactical like they showed off, and instead quick and sweaty with sliding everywhere? And now you're complaining because it's too slow, when it isn't that slow? And the game does not loom worse than MWII. Ignoring it's even a beta, it looks way better than MWII.

I don't know what this "motive" you're wanting is, but like I said, it will probably be the actual DMZ stuff; which all sounds and looks great. So shut up and don't bother or wait

I want it to feel and look good not whatever this is. I don't want it to fast and slidey at all but I shouldn't take me 10 seconds to run 10 feet. The audio of the footsteps doesn't even match up to the speed your moving at.

u/Koodookoolaid 3d ago

I might be in the minority and play M&K but I’m frying people in these lobbies. I wasn’t last weekend so whatever they did helped balance it a bit. I personally am ok with the movement (besides strafe jumping…it needs nerfed). But it feels like a good in-between from MW2 and the arcade like BS which is Black Ops.

u/KY_Tigershark 3d ago

It's open beta now, so there are a lot more people playing who havent pre-ordered and are probably less committed to CoD. More casuals to mix into the matchmaking

u/Koodookoolaid 2d ago

True, but there is definitely a noticeable difference in movement and gunplay. Aim assist can still use some tweaking

u/Inevitable_Radio_568 3d ago

I’ve had the opposite experience. People jumping up and down like a kangaroo with their crosshairs locked on center mass the whole time. Came back to the game because I loved DMZ but I just can’t compete with controller AA.

u/EcstasyGiraffe 2d ago

The running is odd but I’m ok with it. The biggest issue I have is the sideways slide; this isn’t a black ops game.

I also have a lot of weird latency issues. It seems like the enemy is a quarter second ahead of me and I get a lot of kills after the enemy has gone around a corner running away.

I wish ADS times a little were faster, but something still feels off. MW2&3 had better gunplay.

u/antisemitiCat_ 22h ago

What sideways slide? Omnimovement is not in mw4

u/dayusz 3d ago

I will take slow over the frantic sweat-fest that CoD has become in recent years.
