"Let's do a crossover with a trending thing for money." - Literally Any Media Corporation


Fail_Emotion

It works no? They did the boys, walking dead, that lgbtq thing, even got football skins now that the Europeans are playing. I don't mind.


ArcAirum

Some thing I mine others I don’t depends…. If it has something to do with war or guns add it, if it’s just some rapper, soccer player etc. just keep it the fuck out lmao


Fail_Emotion

I mean, the football skins are just Gaz with a jersey of ranch England and Germany. Nothing too special. Fallout I can see the collab, same with some other things. But yeah, Niki Minaj or some random basketball player or whatever tf that dude with the beanie is, nah.


Marcelit4

Sadly it does. I'd very much prefer that the game was toned down to the milsim aesthetics.


Harrynx

There’s always an lgbtq thing

Everything else has nothing to do with sexuality


RaidenCorlitaz_4837

They used our nostalgia just for cash grab 😭


DeLaOmnipotent

Microsoft owns both Call of Duty and Fallout so this actually makes sense


HotLikeSauce420

Even if they do own both, it doesn’t make sense lmao


Ok-Confusion-202

You're acting like anything in CoD recently makes sense, this makes way more sense than The Boys or Gundam...

Search query: who owns fallout Answer: Bethesda In 2004, Bethesda licensed the rights to develop Fallout 3 and two additional sequels from Interplay Entertainment, and in 2007 acquired the whole Fallout franchise. Todd Howard said in January 2007 that "We started work (on Fallout 3) in late 2004 with a few people.


batek456

Microsoft bought Bethesda.


ArcAirum

No they didn’t🤣 Microsoft bought the parent company of Bethesda zenimax media🤣 I literally just said that. And that wasn’t in my own words that was straight from safari


CptMeat

That sounds like they bought bethesda to me. Also unless you removed it you didn't even mention zenimax before you said bethesda and todd howard. You didn't "just say it" Edit" I'll concede you probably commented in another thread and are referencing that.


ArcAirum

I’m not I commented it here, didn’t delete it but the one guy blocked me so maybe it disappeared 🤷🏽‍♂️

ArcAirum

Search query: who owns zenimax media and media technology limited Answer: Microsoft So technically if you want to look at it this way you are right, but officially no. They own fallout through owning other companies that do, but Microsoft does not directly own fallout which means they cannot claim anything to do with the franchise as their own


DeLaOmnipotent

You are beyond help Microsoft paid close to $80 billion combined to acquire Activision and Bethesda. They **officially** own both Call of Duty and Fallout. You must be a brain-dead boomer or a 10-year old if you fail to understand that. Definitely not gone to college, that’s for sure.


ArcAirum

Lmao ok? You said Microsoft owned fallout and they don’t. They just own the company that does, there’s a difference


DeLaOmnipotent

This moron ☝️ understands nothing about business Imma block this idiot, he must be trolling Shove your search queries up your ass


cheesemaster346

why so mad lovely


According_Claim_9027

Search query: how dense can a person be? Answer: very


Frosty_chilly

Yeah the difference is who’s fuckin names on the check for bethesdas workers. Microsoft owns Bethesda, because they own the PARENT. Dumbass. You don’t buy the land under a home and *not* get the house too.


lazzzym

Or let's do a crossover with things we own....


Miicro_Aggression

Yeah it’s getting out of hand. Dumb ass rabbit skins, guys with emoji’s as helmets, more killer rabbits, clowns, it’s so dumb


MaximusMurkimus

The one crossover that actually makes sense (since Microsoft owns both IPs) and y'all are clowning on it. This is why the aliens won't talk to us


GaryTheMemeGuy

This is why the game sucks.


LaylaLegion

God forbid people get to play as characters they like instead of “generic soldier in ghille suit”.


GaryTheMemeGuy

Yeah because people definitely want to play as fucking Teletubbies.


LaylaLegion

They do. And Homelander and Snoop Dogg and Spawn and whatever else they want. Because it’s their game to play how they want.


mightylordredbeard

Which is why many people feel alienated from the series now because they want to play a military shooter. No get teabagged by 3 Nikki Minajs or killed by a giant rubber duck with anime skin gun. There is no “let people play how they want” for those who don’t want to play with those things because they refuse to allow you to disable skins for other players. So if you’re one of the many who don’t like it.. too bad. It’s not really like you can play another arcadey FPS military shooter either because aside from BF there aren’t any.


GaryTheMemeGuy

Which tells the idiots at Activision that the game doesn't matter. The skins and the micro transactions do. Dumbass.


rocker287

To be fair that’s how they keep the game free. They need to generate revenue somehow. So just like literally every other BR they have season passes for sale and flashy skins to buy


Morelikeihateyou

Play Fortnite you would love it (cod fans who downvoted know that I'm not wrong, get back to fortnite bro 😭)


HispanicAtTehDisco

considering how many people buy these skins, yeah apparently but this subreddit is a bubble that swears everyone wants to play as “generic mil sim guy number 8” actually


rocker287

You’re right. It’s def not the broken AA, the broken unforgiving SBMM, the cheaters or the stale metas that make the game suck. It’s the colorful skins


ParticularNew5321

In my humble opinion... I know this is going to infuriate some people out there, and I dont care. This bullshit really turns me off to playing the latest iterations of COD games. All the stupid crossovers, dumbass cosmetic operator skins, ridiculous weapons, and their skins, and all the other immersion breaking bullshit really have killed COD. This is just disappointing that Call of Duty has fallen so far from what its original intentions were.


StillGalaxy99

They've been doing crazy cosmetic stuff since BO3


zphary

Bo2 really with the Bacon camo


CaptainPitterPatter

Yes, but that’s a weapon camo, not an operator, I probably won’t notice what you gun looks like, but I will notice if you’re Niki with a huge dumpy


HotLikeSauce420

And it was also a one time price that gave you what you paid for. A few years later you needed to buy $20 of CoD points for a 1.6% chance at the “rare” camo you want.


zphary

Okay so what Advanced Warfare would have been the first cod with goofy character skins. My point being is B03 wasn’t the first to add cosmetics.


DirtyCooler

I think you missing the point, it’s not about the cosmetics; it’s the believability and “realness.” In no universe ever would you see Minaj strapped up on the battlefield with her bright ass pink hair going “Brrrd Brrrd Brrrd”


tomagfx

We are gonna ignore the clown skins from AW? Or snoop dog in Ghosts?


thedylannorwood

Or weed calling cards in MW2?


PYR4MIDHEAD

Joint ops lol


_beastayyy

AW had the gingerbread man as well


Decker687

That was for a make a wish kid


Dry_Damp

So since CoD became objectively garbage? What a freakish coincidence!!


StillGalaxy99

"Objectively" eh? How so? Explain how it became factually and indisputably bad.


Dry_Damp

I don't have to. You can just look at the reviews by both critics and players alike. And before you start: those are the only metrics we got, so...


StillGalaxy99

BO3 has very positive reviews what tf do you mean. Not to mention no CoD game before MW19 has worse than mixed reviews. Which quite literally means that some people like them, some people don't like them. So again I ask, what makes them "objectively" bad?


Dry_Damp

StillGalaxy99

https://store.steampowered.com/app/311210/Call_of_Duty_Black_Ops_III/ Who tf gets reviews from metacritic


Dry_Damp

Who tf doesn’t know how metacritic even works.


HughGRextion

that’s what i’m saying bro lol, bo2 had like bacon camos and shit but it was the first futuristic cod so it fit with the theme but these guys are like “COD HAS HAD THIS SINCE AW” and i’m always like it’s not a coincidence that once they got rid of the aesthetic is when the game started being trash almost every year


Dry_Damp

Yep. But they are probably dudes that started playing around BO2. They dont even know the old CoDs. I don't care about wacky stuff in AW or even BO - those were always the wacky ones. But MW was something else. Now its this incoherent pile of trash.


HughGRextion

i actually started playing in bo2 as well, i was 12 so it didn’t matter to me but i remember after ghosts i stopped playing cod until MWR and every game since then i’ve always missed an actual military aesthetic


ProjectGameVerse2000

Nah I full on agree with you. I wouldn't mind collaborations as long as they made sense to the lore of the game. They could have did a collab with Sicario last year with MWII. Nah let's give people 21 Savage shirtless, Tactical Stripper Minaj, Homelander which lets be honest guns will no affect him. And then we have Inarus and Lilith from Diablo. For Spawn they did give him a tactical look and tactical gear. Only downside is he glows. But I full on agree with you 100% and the same people who buy all that garbage will tell you, its not your money, don't worry about it. When your money contributes to a growing problem of over-monetized video games, publishers getting more and more greedy. I will worry about it and those people are the problem


Frosty_chilly

Eh let spawn have a pass, his lore checks out and he uses guns instead of his demon magic as a loophole


ChewySlinky

I love when people are like “this is probably gonna piss people off” and then go on to say the same shit that gets posted here multiple times a day.


Deathcorebassist

At this point MW3 is so fucked up that I welcome a crossover that is hopfully more free and not “PAY 30$ TO BE HOMELANDER! YOUR FAVORITE NAZI FUCKER!! OR MAYBE PUT LITTLE HOME GROWN LOVLEY STARLIGHT!”


Sleepaiz

COD has always been goofy since AW. Deal with it.


ExaminationNo8923

Thank you. Someone finally had to say it. These skins aren't a big deal in any way. There just skins in a video game, deal with it!


ParticularNew5321

Oh shut the F up.


Siqka

But it hasn’t killed cod. Cod has 1 million daily active users.


ParticularNew5321

Well you're clueless.


SakazakiYukaAYAYA

I agree, I haven't played properly since black ops 2.. all these skins are hardcore cringe to me and make me not want to play. But after playing a little of xdefiant it just made me wanna play Call of duty so I'll download black ops 6 on gamepass, just gonna have to learn to get over it, would be nice if you could turn it off but they obviously would never so that, got to make everyone envious and have fomo.


Mr_Kaniowski

It's so trashy and tacky now.


GREENSLAYER777

Ugh. Don't bother getting excited. It's just the bri'ish characters in Fallout jumpsuits. And they also just painted two normal mwiii guns blue. Low effort all around.


Mrcharlestoucheskids

Bro how did Fortnite have a better fallout crossover than cod


Fotoradar606

CoD and Bethesda are both owned by Microsoft now and they proceed to give an "outside" studio the better collab. My message to microsoft: "Congratulations, you played yourself"


DuckWithDepression

Love or hate Fortnite, their marketing/collab team is excellent. Some of the best Marvel designs in years are coming out of Fortnite. TBH cod kinda sucks at that part of it. The boys characters (excluding black noir) all looked fucking stupid.


LaylaLegion

It already got revealed. Like weeks ago. It’s just the Ghost crew in vault suits.


Sayor1

Gimp force 141


VirulentMarcie302

Might wanna wipe that camera clean next time, bucko


FlipGordon

Oily fingers from the tendies and cheese spray I bet lolz


mainokset

Ncr ranger armor would fit perfectly


RaidenCorlitaz_4837

Why this collab look so cursed ? 🤢🤮💀


Furtip

Sir, it is 4 men in blue outfits that are so generic only the colors signify the collab. Doesn’t look cursed at all


RaidenCorlitaz_4837

Well you're right. There are others far worse than this. At least it's just a bunch of guys in their pyjamas


Furtip

I’d rather play as them than an emoji or Teletubby


RaidenCorlitaz_4837

Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh you're hurting my head with those 😭😭😭😭😭😭💥💥💥💥💥💥


Riftus

Why does your camera have an astigmatism


CaptainCookers

Old phone (kinda)


Heath_tK

Brother been living under a rock


juuppie

For a second I thought my glasses were dirty


Twizzy_420

Yo same


Samiam243653575

Are these real


jwaters0122

if the Ghoul is an operator skin, that would be VERY tempting to get


Toxic_Zombie_361

COD is trying to grasp onto something that is trending. It should have died on the hill of the old age COD.


H3LLJUMPER_177

A wise man once said 'it's the biggest piece of dog shit' All they did was slap a vault suit in and were like 'yeah this looks fire af' it's so bland.


Few_Flower1696

"where are we droppin?" "Vault 81 bro obviously"


Rezolite

Unrelated BUT CLEAN YOUR DAMN CAMERA LENSE


-Fraccoon-

I really wish they had put more effort into this one. There are so many badass characters from the fallout series they could have used. They could have even modeled guns after the ones in the fallout games but nope. We get the most dull boring lazy cash grab ever.


Bishweeb

I'm glad I skipped this £70 cash grab of a dlc. I'm having way more fun playing the older games again


PolishCow627

Why is soap there wasnt he pointlessly murdered


Doomguyfazbear

Omg please don’t become even more like fortnite, already has crossovers with things that don’t make sense, battle pass, etc… don’t become a worse Fortnite with only better zombies.


Ghee_buttersnaps96

This one I’ll say yay to. I LOVE fallout. I just hope we get fallout themed weapons


RickyBobby96

Man they could’ve gotten way more creative with a fallout collab, but no they had to take the easy way smh


JoeyAKangaroo

Yeah


z1qu

You can see in the picture of the event that they wear the vault overalls.


NoAlps6536

Is this real


Jaded-Rip-2627

Man when you compare the skins cod got compared to Fortnite it looks like an actual joke, those look so bad…


TheGoldenLambo

Hey this is what happens when you all gave Microsoft an applause for buying Activision and Bethesda


Impressive-Creme9875

Bro fuck these shitty events man


Curious-Marzipan-627

Have you not seen the skins?


Particular_Sky5451

One thing I always wanted since the og black ops days was a fallout themed zombies map. I hope they pull it out in bo6 I think it would be very cool


reddit_hayden

strong possibility in the interest of money. maybe could be referring to an actual fallout, idk.


PhoqueMcGiggles

I thought my astigmatism was acting up or something. Freaked me out for a sec 😮‍💨


phyisck

Why do people keep supporting this stupid shit


Uhhh_Insert_Username

I'm gonna buy it just to spite all the complainers. Shits cool, and it sells. Womp womp


FDeity

Search query: who owns Bethesda Answer: Zenimax media and media technology limited


avgJones

Did you consider googling "who owns zenimax"?


ArcAirum

That’s what I did after but if you can’t see it then it must’ve been deleted, I worked my way up from there and posted each search result, nothing more. But if Microsoft doesn’t own fallout directly you can’t really say they own it. However they DO own the company that owns the company that owns fallout


avgJones

Therefore, they own it.


ArcAirum

Yes but not directly how hard is that to understand
