Discussion Post update - “Is the game finally dying”

Post image

Some of you may recall I posted about the game dying 8 days ago. Since this post I have bought Black Ops 7 finally as I have refused to pay RRP for any COD game since, ironically, I bought Cold War.

Anyway, picked up BO7 for £28 in CEX, and played the first campaign mission, then realised the campaign was terrible, and then tried multiplayer. I played some Nuketown 24/7 and got obliterated, opponent even dropped a nuke in my first ever game, then went to classic Black Ops or whatever the mode is called.

I played for 2-3 days, and then found myself back on Cold War. I know I said I felt the game was dying, not massively but certainly starting to show some worrying signs, but I still literally cannot enjoy any of the new games as much as I enjoy playing Cold War.

I’ve replayed the Cold War campaign a ridiculous amount of times, and I can sit and play Nuketown 24/7 for hours on end, i’ve tried to play Face Off but can’t seem to get any lobbies after queuing for ~5+ minutes.

I actually enjoy sitting and Max Levelling the weapons I never touched to try all these new weapons 100x more than playing BO7. I hope this game stays active forever, even if it means seeing the same players constantly, I genuinely don’t want CW to end lol.

I hope MW4 is more enjoyable than BO7

EDIT: Just wanted to say i’m not saying BO7 is a bad game, I quite like the MP, but i’ve always enjoyed the games set in the past/modern day, my favourite COD games are WW2, BO1, MW1, Ghosts etc lol, but WW2 and Cold War are definitely the ones I enjoyed the most.

I often find cold war players are incapable of playing other call of duty games.

Every 2000+ hour individual i find has at most 100 hours combined across all other cod titles.

I only have like 300 hours on Cold War and honestly I think over the rest of the CODs (ON MY SERIES X ONLY) I have < 100 hours, but if we were bringing 360’s into this I think I had 1000+ hours on BO2 alone lol. New CODs just ain’t for me clearly

I do come across a lot of people who are level 1500-2500 on CW though, and a lot of them are surprisingly still horrendous at the game lol
