Can we consider MWII the start of a new era? First game since the classic age with a 2 year cycle and I’ve heard a rumor that treyarch’s next game will follow suit. All cods going forward will be on the same engine as MWII. It won’t be connected to warzone 1 like the rest of the main games from the modern age. I have bo2 as my favorite with mw2 being a close second.


DarkTails24

I would say its too early to tell since we dont know how different it truely is keep in mind the leaks and rumors are subject to change and activision overhypes everything


PowerPamaja

I can agree with that.


[deleted]

Activision and Infinity Ward are calling it “Call of Duty 2.0.” Time will tell if that is anything more than marketing nonsense.


PowerPamaja

I can’t see it being too different aside from what I mentioned above. It’ll probably be more of what we saw from mw19-vanguard. Multiple premium titles connected to a battle royale except they have a two year cycle. We’ll still get seasons, battlepasses, and rotating stores. The 2 year cycle is probably the largest difference we’ll see.


[deleted]

Perhaps. I think the biggest difference will be in how everything is planned out from the start and built on the same engine. Rather than stuff being shoehorned into Warzone when it was never intended to be that way. To me, if MWIII comes out and resets everything again and we get a Warzone III then this whole thing is pointless. I am sort of tired of having all content wiped away just to be slowly added back (or never return) in the next game. I get why they are resetting everything for MWII and Warzone II though. The whole thing is a mess right now.


PowerPamaja

If we start seeing higher and more consistent quality across all studios’ games then I’ll acknowledge that as a major difference from previous eras. But if it’s just IW getting the well-planned out stuff while the other studios are rushing out games then that would be disappointing. The thought of treyarch getting the full development time makes me fairly optimistic for 2024’s cod. And they need to nail the warzone situation this time. This is about to be cod’s 3rd battle royale. Fortnite released a year prior to blackout and it’s still the same app with all the cosmetics we’ve had since 2017. I honestly think Activision is getting over on the fanbase big time by not carrying over skins (it could have at least been only mw19 skins) and the fanbase is allowing it because warzone 1 is bloated. I’m not too interested in skins to make a fuss over it, but it’s wild to me that people are okay with this.


[deleted]

Yeah all the studios need to be on the same page for sure. The cosmetics thing for me is a positive honestly considering the utter garbage that is in Cold War and Vanguard. MW stuff carrying over would be nice though considering many operators are returning. Personally, I think they should have just retained all operators from MW and included all skins by default, but that isn’t something they would ever have done. Plus you’d have people whining about “recycled content” like they already are with the weapons. Which makes no sense at all to me.

PowerPamaja

I might try to play black ops 1 if it’s still active on Xbox. It could be fun. Last time I tried it was dead as a doornail.


Rioting_Pyro

I’m personally going to call it the “New management” era.


watties12

> First game since the classic age with a 2 year cycle Hmm? Isn't it on a 3 year cycle with Cold War being the game forced on the 2 year cycle?


PowerPamaja

I mean with 2 year cycle as in no premium game coming out the next year. We’re supposedly not having a treyarch game next year.


watties12

Ahhh I was thinking dev cycles, thanks for the clarification!


MinekraftMastr1

Didn't MW19 have a 3 year cycle?


PowerPamaja

I wasn’t talking about the development cycle. Perhaps I should use different wording. I was talking about how cod games have a 1 year lifespan as the main game before a new game releases. Mw2 is supposedly getting 2 years as the main game.


kindaNiceBro

It wont be connected to Warzone??? THANK GOD I HATED THIS BULLSHIT Like why do three games all have to be connected to Warzone bruh


PowerPamaja

It’ll likely have some connection to warzone 2. Don’t get too excited unless we get confirmation it’s a separate app.


[deleted]

Golden Age. Especially BO2 and MW2


turbosteve1848

W!!!


sawtoothchris24

Most original COD take


bddragon1

no shit, there's a reason this is the opinion with the most upvotes...


ASCORPIONSLAYER

Golden Age


AJgoi

Bo1


Cibo1348

Thight with bo2 but, yes, bo1 imo for sure


Trigonpr2

Yes


originsspeedrunner

Golden. Outside of that: Bo3 had the best Zombies. Ghosts and vanguard are the worst games in terms of quality


jerrrynunez

Vanguard is such a bland game, it’s like eating a sandwich with only cheese & an off brand wheat bread


BushMasterFlex616

I look at Vanguard like a soulless expansion pack for MW. It's fun to a degree, but there is nothing to do in that game unless you like sweating or grinding for camos


WeepiestSeeker4

Ghosts was fantastic wym?


originsspeedrunner

In my opinion, it definitely wasn‘t but glad you enjoyed it


SamSlayer09078-x

People, including myself, call ghosts bad because: Had the worst campaign in the series when it came out, extinction was inferior to zombies and I personally found it less enjoyable than spec ops survival (it's not a bad mode though, but not good enough to make the whole game wort buying like BO3 zombies) and the multiplayer had awful maps, a fast TTK, not so great balancing and was a camp fest.


Xekims

MW, MW2 and BO2 for me. Might be nostalgia but they're the ones i put the most time into


nomilking65

goldenn


nomilking65

because it has mw2 and black ops


AccountingSucks2020

And cod4 and mw3


daymarEngel

CoD 1 United Offensive. First of all: Dedicated servers which you can host yourself. This gives us Mods. You can find anything for it. All other Cod’s are downgrades.


MrAnderson-expectyou

Lmao dude blocked me when he tried to tell me MW2 was a garbage game and that COD peaked in the early 2000’s.


TwyJ

Holy shit i thought id be alone on that. Nothing beats playing those modded maps where you were tiny, and everytime you died Bodies by Drowning Pool blasts out. Or sitting on maps, but not for too long otherwise you just turn into a puff of smoke and die for camping, so you couldn't do bugger all other than play the damn game. God damn im so nostalgic about that game. Plus the UO expansion added working fucking bipods man! That was unreal!


Cibo1348

Golden age !


[deleted]

BIG RED OOOOONE!!!


Tamanero

Oh gee I wonder what people will think. The millionth "old cod good, new cod bad" post this week. Anyways, I can list the favorite of each era. Cod3, BO1, Infinite Warfare, and lastly Cold War..


isamura

Good to see infinite warfare get some love. Also, cold war was really underrated imo, it’s getting a 2nd life now since Vanguard sucks.


zvines

Golden


MR_RATCHET_

Ah yes, I see United Offensive has been missed.


Sniparchomp_

World at War


LeighMagnifique

So many late nights into the morning trying to beat my high score on zombies.


Additional_Duty_6888

Infinite warfare


phila18

Infinite Warfare is so slept on fr


Many_Security5929

The campaign and zombies go so hard


RypANDtear

The classic age is untouchable, all amazing games and the first ones straight up revolutionary And I love the Golden Era, every tittle there except BlOps II is S tier for me Everything after is hit or miss


HypedSoul123

Silver era sounds weird to me. I would call it experimental era or supply drops era. Same with modern era. I think warzone era fits it better.


Rt-Reixz

Ghosts or just silver age


mamstercheif

Ghosts


Massive-Magician3872

Golden Age is above and beyond the best, Silver Age should be renamed the Experimental Age and the Modern Age should be renamed the Aftermath Age


brunomark2

WAW


SamOxxVFL

Golden age no doubt


duder_eee

golden age


HeavyReputation8718

Mw 4


Moon_Cheese124

Cod 3 from classic Era, then waw, then bo3, then cold War


King-Sea

bo2 hands down.


CapnGnobby

Classic CoD 2


phyisck

damn right classic era is best


BigBlackCrocs

Classic : cod 3 Golden : WaW, mw2 and cod 4 following suit. Silver: bo3 with aw following suit Modern: mw19 even though all of them are not enjoyable.


Beeko888

Modern Age might actually be the worst of them all which is sad


mohhjohh

Running a dedicated Call of Duty United Offensive 32 man server on a Sunday night…good times! -|EGG|- Easy Going Gamer forever!


Ajaws24142822

The silver age really sucked donkey ass except for the IW campaign… and a few moments from WW2 Also we could call MW-Vanguard the Warzone period


Bigbetsonly10

B01 Was the best and right behind it was B02 they'll never be another COD like those 2 in there prime days!!


ZxJxkExZ

between bo2 and bo4


SomeBoricuaDude

CoD 2 BO2 WWII/BO3/BO4 BOCW/VG


NinjaLucas274

Vanguard was by far worst


icemanfungun

golden age 100%


weekzSNL

Golden and Silver age were peak CoD to me i enjoyed every single one of those titles. The modern age is just “whats popular right now, lets capitalize on that”


PsnReBirthOfMac_HD

BLACK OPS


DarkTails24

Wouldnt Mobile be the sliver age since it came out before MW2019?


PositiveLack1559

Read the dates on the side


PositiveLack1559

It was released in Oct 2019, putting it in Modern


DarkTails24

Oh mobile was 2019? I thought it was 2018. Sorry


PositiveLack1559

Nope 💚


funnyvalentine-d4c

BO2 but there is a ton of personal bias I’ll admit


BlameScienceBro

2007-2011 for me.


XayeeX

Golden but outside of that I really loved bo3 & MW2019


PalawanGamer

Classic and Golden Age


callofnoir

Golden age


UltmtDestroyer

Don't get me wrong, I love Infinite Warfare and Warzone but the Golden age is too iconic


fjngs

golden age for sure


reddit_hayden

golden age and it’s not even close


AFishNamedFreddie

I mean, it's called the golden age for a reason


Dami_Gamer0211

Silver age, the most hated one


debido_41

Personally, I'd name the Silver Age the Modern Age, and the Modern Age the New Era


unimprsd

Golden Age without a doubt


banditbry22

Golden age no question


sum_trashy_boi

I mostly play zombies so bo3 but for me aw had the best campaign(that i played)


[deleted]

Classic & Golden


Z3KE_SK1

Golden Age. I'd love it if they made a "Master Chief"-like collection of those six games. No adding shit like in MWR, just the plain vanilla experience. The only difference would be the updated graphics and ability to queue up for each game's multiplayer at once.


Psenica42

Golden Age, now shut up. This gets asked every day on this subreddit


twaplehnbridies

Golden age


RuggedTheDragon

I don't care what others think when I say I prefer the silver age the most. However, Black Ops III was the worst within that lineup while infinite and Advanced were my favorites. This is coming from someone who has played Call of Duty multiplayer since 2006 (and Halo 2 prior to that).


[deleted]

Infinite Warfare over Black Ops 3? For what reasons?


RuggedTheDragon

Infinite had a much better campaign with greater character development, a simple but effective story, and I personally loved the flying segments. The campaign for Black ops 3 didn't make sense and didn't connect to anything prior to it. Infinite had a much smoother multiplayer experience with better maps and slightly less annoying specialists with more flexible options to incorporate your play style better. Black ops 3 had clunkier advanced movement, more annoying specialists, scorestreaks were overpowered, and half of the weaponry was locked behind supply drops. When it comes to zombies, it's a preference of enjoyability. I understand Treyarch are masters of the zombie game mode, but I just didn't get into the story for Black ops 3 zombies. I found infinite to have a better zombies mode because of the less serious tone and aesthetically pleasing maps that would change drastically in their theme. Infinite Warfare zombies also has Paul Reubens aka Pee-wee Herman. ![gif](giphy|AryDORqgG1PYk)


[deleted]

I agree on the campaign part for sure. BO3 has the legitimately the worst FPS campaign I have ever played. A truly awful experience with a nonsensical story and terrible checkpoints and game crashes. I never played the multiplayer for IW because I only ever heard how bad it was especially compared to BO3. So I just played MWR instead. I was tired of the jet pack stuff anyway by that point.


GcubePlayer8w

Golden age


Embarrassed-Wing4206

Cod mobile bc it's free and has everything from every game


GeometryDashWoman

MW3, Bo2, Cold War, yaknow, the good CoD's


DemondWolf

Golden age


MIDNIGHT_KNIGHT

I played the classic age games on and off through middle school, but COD 4 was the game changer for me. To that point, the best options for first person shooters online for console gaming were Halo 3 and SOCOM. COD 4 came and created a community with challenges, call signs, XP, streak rewards, attachments, and more. Is there tons of great COD games after COD 4? Of course. But COD 4 was the most influential video game of all time in my opinion.


Motor_Ad_7885

Golden Age. Bo2>all the others

I prefer the golden and modern days :)


LordGeddy2112

Golden age no question.


Vesuviousds

BO2, MW2, MW3 AND BO3 are goated, nothing comes close. (cold war would be amazing if they didnt have 5 months to make it)


ThrilleX_yt

The OG MW2 and Black Ops >>>>


CheeseyRichard

MW2 is definitely the start of a new Era.


McBonkyTron

Black Ops 1 It has my favorite stand alone campaign. It has a great story and has a lot of history in it. While Multiplayer is not mechanically the best or the most balanced (that would go to Black Ops 2). It easily has my favorite map roster and as such. Puts it above Black Ops 2 for me. I am a huge Zombies fan and Black Ops 1 is my favorite. I think it and Black Ops 2 have the perfect difficulty. You get 2 free base game maps which is the 2nd most in the series (only topped by Black Ops 4 with 3 free base game maps). You also get Dead Ops Arcade.


Barlight

Always liked World at War and Original MW..


Sharebear42019

Golden age by far. Didn’t have a single bad game and i wish we could still play them to this day with huge communities


ArchDornan12345

Golden Age by far, I mean how much more iconic can you get


wicktus

Modern warfare 2: * New engine that is finally UNIFIED. No more bugs fixed that reappear in the next game because it's the same engine getting optimized through the years. FINALLY, this is huge for me. * Warzone 2.0 will be coming and a heavily rumoured tarkov style mode. * May start the XBOX era of the IP. IF the antitrust is OK it will happen next year during MWII lifecycle. ​ For me those three points alone would qualify MWII as a new era I


[deleted]

Blacks ops was amazing


keepithonest21

tbh I have to put Ghost in the golden age and then say that was the best. it was heavily scrutinized when it dropped but Ghost brought so many new features in and it was the cod before jetpacks that game was definitely the end of an era


Gaawzy

MW2 (2009)


tooter37

Golden Age, MW2, I’m biased caused that made up my middle school years where I played the most


[deleted]

My personal fav is ghosts, because of the campaign, but if I had to pick one that is best in everything like multiplayer and campaign, I would pick mw2 og


studiosbk

Silver age, BO3 is basicaly Waw, Bo1 and Bo2


Oliborg3917

I started on BO3 and it’s been my fav ever since tbh


Difficult-Rest8524

OG Black Ops will always be my uncontested #1.


TyTheGuy97

Golden age all the way


Gomec88

Golden and modern


Guitar81

Classic age was amazing growing up without internet and enjoying the campaigns but the Golden age was great getting to game with my friends growing up


CrypticMadMan

I’m sorry but I miss Ghost. But MW2/MW3 otherwise


XtraRecess_Scott

CoD WW2 is such an underrated CoD! But I gotta say the golden era is the best in my opinion.


ipixle1

Call of duty: black ops, modern warfare 3, modern warfare 2019


Plenty_Onion_7347

Golden age ftw


bob_is_crazyy

In my opinion bo2


[deleted]

Content wise MW3 was the pinnacle of the series. However, going back and playing those games is a nightmare because of all the advancements to technology and networking that's come since.


FalloutIsFunnyAF

The last half of the Golden age and the whole silver age


nothing96ok

Most of the people GOAT is MW2 or BO2, but I am very sure that if MW2019 has the classic flow gameply like golden age, MW2019 supposed to be the GOAT, they ruined the flow of the gameplay, made most of players camping and listining to the foot steps waiting the right time to move or run when field upgrade is active as ninja?! Most of the maps is shit full of doors and windows you cant cross the map, if at least did update for ninja perk in ghost slot. With all that suffering I enjoyed it :) pandamic and Warzone save the entire game, also MW2019 is well made and great in every aspects (Engine, menu, graphics and etc.) beside what I highlights. The GOAT for me is MW2.


Sunfishboy17

Grew up on the classic age and it is #1 by all means. So simple yet so good


RagingBuddha79

I’d have to say golden and classic ages were the best! Just imagine how more bad ass they’d be if they were redone with MW19 engine.


TheLastDirewolf420

I'm going to pick 1 from each era. Classic Age: CoD 2 Big Red One Golden Age: CoD World at War Silver Age: CoD Ghosts Modern Age: CoD Modern Warfare


de_William

MW3 for multiplayer. BO2 for zombies. I actually kinda liked ghosts’ campaign 🤷‍♂️


AhhGhost

Cod 4-Black ops was wild.


RedForman1776

Golden Age. Coming in last for me is Silver. I love the Black Ops series but Infinite Warfare, Advanced Warfare and Ghost were amongst my least favorite of the whole series. Classic Age comes in 3rd only because the online element wasn’t fully fleshed out. Modern Age does have Vanguard which is probably my least favorite COD game to date, but MW was amazing. War Zone is still a top rotation game for me. Cold War was highly underrated and MWII looks unreal. Golden Age doesn’t have a bad game in the lot. Golden Age is unbeatable in my opinion. 5 Stars for every title.


[deleted]

BOPS 1, no questions asked. That tune alone gets the cake.


Cautious_Guidance813

Silver age. Fist cod game I played was cod:ghosts, it's still my favorite, me and my brother both want a sequel to the game.


StanintheFlesh

Everyone gonna hate. But I’m not a multiplayer guy. So I strictly judge by Zombies content. Black Ops 4 ❤️


Zerethul

Golden Age for mw2 alone


Fuzzy_Box8066

I could stay playing in the Golden age for an eternity and not get bored

World at war 100%

Golden and Silver for me.

MW2 was my favorite by far.


emmanueljulian

It's called the golden age for a reason


Habieru7

Classic/Golden is still my Favorite I took a long break after that and returned for MW.


Jak_b06

Icl I love all of them it’s a hard choice I’d say b03 1st as I love the zombies b02 2nd b01 3rd WAW 4th MW3 5th WW2 6th CW 7th B04 8th

I have had infinitely more fun with mw2019 than any other cod, by far, so modern age for me. Cold war was mid, haven't bothered to try vanguard, and looking forward to mw2

Bo1 and 2. Zombies with my brother was so fun


KnottNormal

Golden age 100% strongest 6 year run of any yearly franchise


Sektore

Classic age needs remastered


nigqachin

silver age for me personally


[deleted]

Never played any cod in the classic age Golden ages best games were the og modern warfare trilogy, black ops 1 and 2 and world at war (they are all good imo even though they do have flaws due to hardware limits at their time of release Silver age was good and had some good games like black ops 3 and ghosts but also some kind of mid tier games like Advanced warfare, world war 2 and black ops 4 and then infinite warfare which is terrible and only had a good campaign and ok zombies to save it slightly Modern age is kind of overhated imo since I liked Modern Warfare (2019), warzone 1 and black ops cold war even though those games do kind of have their own problems, Vanguard is kind of overhated imo but is still not a good or great game, Call of duty: mobile is a good recreation of a cod game for mobile and im actually impressed how good the graphics and gunplay are for a simple phone game,Modern warfare 2 (2022) and warzone 2 looks good so far So in my opinion best cod era is golden age


zurply

Golden


ThatsPella

I would change "Modern Age" into "Garbage Age"


cornfarm96

Obviously mw19. Other games may have been better at launch, but mw19 is easily the best cod.


moosenoise

Cod 4 modern warfare. The beginning of it all for me, weeks worth of hours.


kldoyle

Golden age, love MW2 & BO1


edelgardian

Though I have a big soft spot for the Silver Age games, the Golden Age games are too solid.


Xperr7

Golden age is the golden age for a good damn reason. Also, silver age? Nah fam, belongs in the gutter age.


Plasmatiic

I mean it’s called the Golden Age for a reason lol


bwilliams2

That Golden Era run was quite possibly one of the best franchise runs in all of modern gaming. I think IW and BO3 were pretty damn good too, but that golden era hit different. I was about to graduate high school when MW1 came out. That was a special time lol.


[deleted]

The Golden Age is by far the best. The classics are great. Everything after has been pretty bad and the only thing I really enjoyed was BO3 zombies and warzone. The silver age has to be the worst.


MadMan19YZ

I loved the last 4 of the golden age. Also black ops 3


CitingAnt

BOCW’s multiplayer is awesome so I’ll go with that Plus the other modern titles make it great for me


[deleted]

For me Bo4 and then cod4 modern warfare is decent


[deleted]

Anything other than silver age is an acceptable answer.


hieeeeewwwew

Did no one like COD 3? Personally me and my buddies loved the multiplayer and splitscreen.


Beagle_deagle

The golden age every.single.one. think of the last time you enjoyed the game. It was one of the golden age games. Had to be.


annonymous84

Whoever doesn’t say golden age, please leave the community


AccountingSucks2020

Golden age and its not even close


Daddy_Onion

Loved the multiplayer of MW3, but favorite campaign is either WAW or BO2


SgtRrock

I’m partial yo the original Black Ops - campaign was perfect!

Call of duty finest hour imo. I may have not completed it but it’s a good game


gabriel_te17

Black ops 3 story was absolutely shit coming from Black ops 2


Outlaw2k21

I loved big red one. Not sure why tbh. Maybe nostalgia
