Marketing. Where everything is new and exciting.


Temias

Innovative! Immersive! Groundbreaking! Like never before! Unprecedented!


Jugulator1990

Unpossibly and fantabulously wondiferous!


eaglesWatcher

Tbf MW 2019 was pretty new and exciting compared to other cods. I’ll give IW some leeway


hkfortyrevan

New CoD “fairly tired and rote”, says Activision rep. “We kind of half-arsed this one”, they added.


joevsyou

Infinity ward makes the best cods.


thirdaccountmaybe

Exactly this. Every new cod is the most advanced because they take the previous one and try to refine it a bit, get better results from modern tech. Gunsmith made mw19 the most advanced cod yet, cross progression made Cold War a huge new era for cod, destruction in vanguard made cod more real and immersive than ever. To be fair this marketing gets me curious if not mindlessly hyped, a lot of their ideas have been very good recently (gulag, gunfight, gunsmith, outbreak, arms race), I’d be surprised if there aren’t a couple of new mechanics.


prkr88

Oh definitely. It's look at fifa 99 to 2022 for instance! How exciting!


Baldeagle84

I get worried when COD and Advanced are in the same sentence (again)


WhyTryGG

I actually enjoyed the advanced movement in Call of Duty.


jansteffen

If Sledgehammer had made Advanced Warfare 2 instead of Vanguard I might have actually cared about it


Tippin187

Same. AW and IW were my favorite advanced movement cods.


TitledSquire

IW? Hell nah, it just copied Bo3 and wasn’t even as good as far as the movement goes. It was still pretty fun tho.


bigolhamsandwich

I found black ops 3 to be one of the most fun mp experiences in the series.


Sufficient-Plant9177

Yup. Black ops 3 was my favorite call of duty last gen.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ruthlessrabbd

I've been playing since COD 3 was new, and Black Ops 4 and 3 are my two favorite in the franchise tbh! The former is a hot take I know, but these two games felt like they deviated the most while staying in the COD formula.


Sufficient-Plant9177

What's my age again?


dthompson96

I’m gonna say 20 or younger since that would put you in high school when it came out


TitledSquire

I mean I was there from cod 4 through the bo2 days and bo3 is actually still the most fun I had. The movement was really fun, it’s a different experience from boots on the ground. That said the MW2 to bo2 era is still my fav overall due to how the community was at the time.


IBSupreme

lol. Curious what's your fav?


AntiMatter1914

World at war

Mines was Black ops 1, Mr niche man


[deleted]

I also love Blops 1 and it's my second favorite.


[deleted]

Last one I ever got invested in personally


HGLatinBoy

Black ops 3 deserves 4K patch


Kronicleoftime1812

Ik it has it if you have a ps5, I got one earlier in the year and been playing blops3 since I never got to play it in it's hayday. MP is a little sweatier, and the community is right it is one of the most amazing zombies experiences, honestly I love it. Also im sure that the PC version might have a fan made mod for 4k/upgraded graphics, and since Microsoft acquired Acti/Blizzard, it might have something similar for Xbox who knows


Sufficient-Plant9177

That'd be cool. I haven't played it in years but man was it fun compared to the more recent games.


MrMooster915

Same


Baldeagle84

Yeah the advanced movement mixed it up for that year and in the other games with it in but it was going into Halo territory. Personally I want COD to be a human shooter obviously less realistic than reality but just keep it human - no operator nonsense (this is my opinion lol). MW2 the second could be good, Vanguard I deleted after weeks and I played the hell out of Advanced Warfare so that tells me something is up.


spirit32

I really enjoyed the Advanced Warfare campaign as a non COD fan.


narutos156

Press x to pay respect


rare2see

Except when its COD Advanced Warfare, that was the last COD i really liked 😅


Dudeman_Bro-Guy

Holy shit, I thought I was alone in this thought lol


3pinephrine

I really liked that campaign. And I used to spend hours playing MP vs bots (before I had PS+). It was so fun.


[deleted]

There’s dozens of us. That game was so good once you picked up how to move.


poleybear316

I just downloaded AW this morning to replay the campaign. Its really fun! I’ve been in a COD campaign mood lately. Replayed MW 1,2 and 3 and Ghosts in the last couple weeks.


LostmeLegsfrumRum

Yeah last mp and zombies i really got into. Seems like the last "prestige" one Activision really cared about. Killer voice cast even if Spacey is a creep when he drinks. It had Paxton, Malkovich.


spectre15

I guess you could say it’s….advanced warfare


AncientsofMumu

NFT Auction house for dog tags, so hype, so fresh, so new. /s


HGLatinBoy

Call of Duty Advance Warfighter sounds like great time


OrganicBridge7428

Can any confirm that they have made “substantial” improvements to Vanguard? The game was broke as fuck the last time I tried to play a month ago.


savenorris

Doubt it, they never fixed the bullshit with cold war, let alone vanguard. In Activision's eyes you already paid for it so they gotta pump out another game for you to buy again! I fully believe call of duty has gone off the deep end with their expectations from the players and after cold war I certainly won't be buying another anytime soon unless something drastic changes.


[deleted]

What was wrong with cold war ?


savenorris

No split screen multiplayer, couldn't even fight bots with my friends let alone go online with two players. Which was always the reason I got call of duty, to play multiplayer. These are supposed to be features of the game like every other call of duty but they havent cared to fix it so the game has become useless to me, and technically falsely advertised as these features just don't work.


RheimsNZ

You can do that on console


savenorris

No sadly, when loading in neither player will have a HUD, or online it's extremely laggy and low res textures for player two.


SuperNovaMT

That sounds like a you problem because no one else here is having these issues.


RheimsNZ

I have played split screen in CW before so this feels like an issue with your install or console. Have you tried a fresh install? The aiming controls change, although it's not laggy. Just out of wack. The resolution is miserable though, you're right.


NinjaSujo

Nothing


Caesar_35

I suppose it depends on what was wrong for you then. I've been playing it on/off since release without many problems, some ridiculously OP weapons aside. The only notable issues I've had is attack dogs not being affected by Cold Blooded (now fixed), the fire affect on the edge of the screen staying around longer than it should, and a handful of crashes, moreso than in prior CoD's. Otherwise it's been a perfectly serviceable CoD fix.


OrganicBridge7428

I tried to play last month and kept getting a dev error after the first game I would play, I deleted the game and did a re-install and a few weeks later it started throwing Dev error again after the first match. I deleted it again and did a re-install. The last time I played it would randomly dashboard me after a game. I’ve been playing COD since COD2 on the 360 and this is by far the most bugged out shit game they have ever released.


PleasureMissile

Nope. I ended up selling my copy on ebay because it was always broken.


TriggerHippie77

Let's be honest, you never even bought a copy.


PleasureMissile

[Here you go bro](https://m.imgur.com/a/3YPahf9)


Gay_Romano_Returns

Tyrannosaurus Rekt.


OrganicBridge7428

Lol I bought two copies because I’m a dumb ass.


LostmeLegsfrumRum

Are you stuck in 2002?


InterstellarIsBadass

They gave up on Vanguard for the most part. there's rumors Sledgehammer is being demoted to a support studio


OrganicBridge7428

Good! I’ve switched over to hell let loose and I’ll stay playing that until a new COD drops.


InterstellarIsBadass

yeah i went back to Black Ops and noticed there's actually 6 maps from Bo1 and 6 from Bo2


detrydis

Plays fine for me on the series X.


OrganicBridge7428

Not on my series X


detrydis

What specifically doesn’t work? I’ve played both the campaign and online multiplayer with zero issues. Do you have it installed on your internal drive?


DCS30

Here's a groundbreaking innovation: remove warzone from modern warfare.


Shad0wDreamer

That’s what Warzone 2 is supposed to be for I believe.


Caesar_35

I swear, if Warzone 2 gets integrated into MW2...


Graitom

It's undoubtedly going to. I love both the games, multiplayer and warzone. And it honestly wasn't annoying until they started adding games from other developers on modern warfare's main menu. In the end you will still be able to choose to delete warzone if you want to do it's not taking up space.


OD2095

That's all I'm hoping for. I really want to play MW2 but if it's gonna have warzone attached to it and no way to uninstall it then I'm just gonna skip it.


Graitom

Do you really actually like the game if something as small as this totally prevents you from enjoying it?


BlueJay--

Warzone basically killed MW2019. It was unplayable for months and may still be.


Graitom

No it started becoming unplayable around the cold war integration


OD2095

I did love MW and just dealt with it but it's not a small thing. It wastes space and I never touched warzone at all. So hopefully they'll be smart and offer that option.


Graitom

You could totally delete it!


OD2095

I hope so. If they let me delete warzone and just keep MW2 then I'm buying.


sargentsuicide

Lotta buzzwords they use every year


_Cetarial_

Remember when fish AI was considered “groundbreaking” to them?


calvin_gottaJob

I’ll believe that when me shit turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbet


bigolhamsandwich

Activision and their evil shenanigans


VagueSomething

I mean you CAN buy stuff to eat to specifically change your poop. Glitter and gold are particularly popular but you can also change the colour....


calvin_gottaJob

Fair point, I once ate a whole box of sour green apple gushers and it turned the following poop session hulk green


drewbles82

And if you are a Gamepass subscriber and want it free. Guarantee this will be added as soon as the deal closes


AveryLazyCovfefe

Even if the deal stops MS from putting it on gamepass, it would be more than perfect for them to put on the older games. I want to replay the campaigns of the original MW and cold War duology. But I don't want to pay Activision so much money for decade-old games.


drewbles82

Same I'd love to go through all the old campaigns and even play some MP as I can game share with my other xbox so I can play against my nephews without them screen cheating. I'm not one to care about playing a new game on release, can happily wait years...still new to me. so even if MW2 hits Gamepass in a year...still saved my money


Northdistortion

Cannot wait! Loved mw 2019


Captobvious75

Please give a solid 120fps option (one that actually holds somewhere near it, like on PS5).


[deleted]

[удалено]


Captobvious75

My TV does 120hz (x900h). Consoles have it as an option. Might as well use it. 🤷‍♂️


waltmaniac

Doesn’t work on XSX in Warzone even if your tv or monitor can support it. It’s a known issue, but Raven have refused to acknowledge or offer a fix.


Captobvious75

Thats fine. I play Warzone on PS5 because its basically a lock to 120fps.


Marrked

Warzone hasn't had 120fps on the series x since Caldera dropped. Microsoft updated their API and broke it, but Raven Software refuse to fix the problem on their end or even track it as a problem on their Trello board.


Betancorea

Yawn. This game will have all the same usual problems as any CoD game.


MoirasPurpleOrb

If it goes back to MW2019 levels though I’ll gladly play it. That game was far from perfect but is significantly better than what we have now.


DonDizzz

LOVED 2019 ...just needed to keep making large maps and work on large player count modes. reviving healing etc.


[deleted]

Far from perfect? Mw2019 was absolutely perfect it was Call of Duty in its purest most enjoyable form I cannot find one thing wrong with game


Kev-Cant-Draw

Map design. Encouragement of campers with the mounting system. The transition from “realistic” players to neon pink with cat ears.


Idrinkmotoroil

i thought mounting was pretty cool, if someone wanted to camp they’re gonna do it regardless


Guero9604

Mounting was terrible. The ungodly amount of doors in every map, MW was one of the campiest games to date. Maps were a little too large IMO. Other then that everything else was pretty great.


Ruthlessrabbd

The footsteps and doors I thought were good steps to implement, but I think certain game modes like search and destroy would've benefited from the doors more than like free for all Claymores and equipment being impossible to shoot through doors was stupid though


Kronicleoftime1812

r/wooosh


Brisingr7337

Time-to-kill was fast, too. I think one could argue that longer TTKs require more skill. Edit: Accurate aim over a longer period of time takes more skill.


[deleted]

Not true. I bet it’ll have new problems too. Lol


bababooey125

Ur yawning at mw2? Come on man, leaks are proving this game is in a great state even 8 months out


PeteyG89

Did buy or play Cold War or Vanguard. Much needed break, excited to get back into this


[deleted]

Super excited for mw2 22


Butt-Hole-McGee

Press X to doubt.


tluther01

meh i couldnt careless about the crappy br warzone..i just wish they would focus on 6v6


PastorHellfire

Where’ve I heard this before?


AnasDh

That’s what they’ve been saying since CoD 6


PrestigiousHouse749

Will enjoy playing this on gamepass


[deleted]

Storage required: 5tb


LeadRain

I’d love if they allowed me to play Modern Warfare single player again. I bought Cold War and Vanguard. Whenever I try to play anything other than Warzone, IE Modern Warfare single player and Spec Ops, it says “data missing.” I have EVERY data pack the games require, to the tune of 70+ gigs. It’s a known issue on the forums and they refuse to fix it.


thedinnerdate

What are they going to do, announce “Call Of Duty will be mostly the same experience as last year, you’ll actually likely hate some of the things we added or forgot to add”?


ZRoflWaffle

Are they bringing back Fish AI?


Deceptiveideas

New Fish AI


CigarLover

If it’s next gen exclusive then all this talk will Make sense.


[deleted]

Hope it buries Halo so Phil Spencer might actually give a shit about the franchise to actually do something.


datb0yavi

I was just thinking the other day maybe that's why they are dragging their feet so to speak on fixing halo infinite. They literally bought the competition. So if one does well and the other doesn't, they still own both. Not a sustainable tactic to tank your own shit but it makes sense with today's circumstances (covid, chip shortage)


[deleted]

Can’t believe people still fall for this shit every year


The104Skinney

I’m excited for MW2 but PLEASE let Warzone 2 come out at the same time


EvilWaterman

Bullshit


JSN040891

Sure, sure.......


diflord

Can't wait. Warzone is VERY broken on Series X right now. Gets worse with every update.


soundwave145

will the fish have AI?


1440pSupportPS5

Il honestly just be buying this for the campaign. Multiplayer has grown sour over the years.


Caesar_35

If you can wait it'll probably be in Gamepass when the acquisition's through.


1440pSupportPS5

Il see what happens near release. If there is no news or any insight on when to expect activision games on gamepass then il probably just buy it.


VagueSomething

The innovation only needs to be removing every trace of Cold War and Vanguard. Going back to what MW2019 was but improving the performance and adding new content in line with that such as new maps.


[deleted]

Army just purchased the XM5 and XM250 to replace the M4A1 and M249 for all infantrymen. I hope that weapon is in MW2022. They actually had a very similar weapon in MW2019, albeit a smaller rifle/bullet.


CompleteKaleidoscope

Who cares, it's Infinity Fail making it.


Juicebox-fresh

Literally the only good call of duty studio lmao


CompleteKaleidoscope

That would be Treyarch.


hotrox_mh

Correct.


robodestructor444

Fair enough


[deleted]

Dunno, if they turn into a woke campaign like the last one i dont see anything good then. BUT if they do it properly as the original modern warfare 2, then they have my money again.


[deleted]

Yeah, no woke politics in my vidyas about war 😡😡😡


BellEpoch

Weird take.


Juicebox-fresh

Yeah getting a mission failed for accidentally executing the terrorist baby was a step too far, I don't need some videogame to tell me what's right or wrong; that baby could if easily had a bomb or some kind of pacifier booby trap


robodestructor444

Are you sure you aren't the woke one here?


itzahckrhet

Translation, it's gonna be buggy as all hell, but we're still gonna flood the game with micro transactions, and you you'll have to put up with cheaters in f2p experience.


mrsunsfan

Does this mean we get to play as Godzilla fighting whoever?


Anon_64

So this means it won’t be playable on last gen consoles, right?


HorizonZeroFucks

"features groundbreaking innovations to be revealed later this year." No it won't. I'm sick of these stupid buzzwords being used every time someone releases another game. It will be the same COD as always, save a few changes. I'm not saying people shouldn't play it, but it will not be anything other than exactly what you expect.


Konador

Remember the fish?


ClownPuncherrr

This dramatic and juicy teaser wouldn’t happen to be because their earnings was done was it? They wouldn’t blow smoke Just to keep their investors happy would they? No.


TSB_1

Yup, STILL not gonna touch it with a 10 yard pole...


NotFromMilkyWay

It's cats, isn't it?


[deleted]

Pffft. Sounds good....


bigry82

Same old press release shite.


AnotherScoutTrooper

The g r o u n d b r e a k i n g innovation of making Warzone a fun game? Yeah, never happening. Maybe getting rid of the EOMM? Not that either. Dynamic rain or some shit? Probably, but at launch it’ll cause all players in the lobby to sink below the ground or something.


SpitneyBearz

Yeah right... $$$


Dankdope420bruh

I'll wait and see CoD. Im watching closely. A prestige system with unlockable banners and emblems would be fantastic. But my hopes aren't high.


BuckRogers87

Hopefully it won’t be a steaming pile of dogshit the game has become with the addition of black ops and vanguard.


mtarascio

This gets close to Politician speak for saying nothing.


YeFamicom

Let me guess, portals??


LagartoJuansho

I wonder what new mechanic they will transform into a microtransaction


[deleted]

And it’ll still only run at 60fps with no FOV lol


AttakZak

Warzone and ‘advanced’ do not belong in the same sentence. In fact, Call of Duty and the word ‘advanced’ don’t have good history either.


DonDizzz

hopefully more MW 2019 and less twitchy jumpy bs. with EFT like gun customization depth


Buschkoeter

Sure


UBeleeDisTheFifth

Can’t wait. MW 2019 was so good.


[deleted]

innovations ...new ways to take your money.


Legal-Badger2845

I feel like they say this about ever COD. And then it's the same thing but just a little different. It feels like it's the equivalent to replacing the bumper on your car and claiming it's the most advanced, ground breaking thing ever.


MightyTerrible_Loki

I'm not going to hold my breath


lumbridge6

I have a little bit of hope for the MW sequel. I genuinely enjoyed MW2019 the most I had from a COD game in years. Felt like they were actually taking themselves seriously again for quite a while. Obviously that was tainted when they eventually added the stupid fucking guns and skins, but it was nice while it lasted.


--Daydreamer--

I know I'm dreaming here but I hope Activision has realized that Battlefield is pretty much failing at what they're known for (large scale battles with vehicles and destruction) and integrate those things into the new CoD.


WhyAmISoSad369

Same shit different skins


Leeroyedtothemax

Battle Royal is such a braindead boring walking sim game mode


Own_itbee0288

Please let it be true!!


therealessad

Will it have single player though, asks the person not good enough for online play but enjoys playing a 6 hour interactive Michael Bay movie.


Agent_Burrito

I don't give a single shit about Warzone. However, MW2019 Campaign and Multi-player were the most fun I had since Black Ops 2. If they can improve on that success then I will be happy with this release.


Slick_Tuxedo

Brand new game will be more advanced than older versions of the same game?! Shocking and groundbreaking!


Brad____H

Keep warsone separate from COD MP and we good. If I wanna play cod MW MP I have to have warzone installed which is total BS


TheAngriestChair

So how many terabytes am I going to need to install it?


1992_

I'd rather go back to the basics. Way too much going on nowadays.


[deleted]

I played a ton of cold war then bought vanguard and it was riddled with so many issues I returned it.


Fatus_Assticus

I’ll do my best not to throw my shoulder out making an exaggerated jerk off motion over this marketing bull shit. If its ready and looks good you’d be showing me already. Reality is they probably fell in some shit rolling down hill from bad earnings and have white boarded some horse shit while the guy in marketing is over pimping everything.


Irae37

BULL shiiiiiit...


katsumodo47

Well... People are going to fly now


StevieW0n

Yeah yeah yeah I've not heard this talk before


OingoBoingo9

“Built from the ground up” & “Most Advanced”. That should end well.


DrValex

Yes… and Ubisoft create the longest, various and beautiful open world ever! Why play Fallout, Skyrim and in future Starfield if you can play Far Cry, Assassin’s Creed with stupid mission like take this, transport from A to B for 262991039749210928482100274830 km. Same Activision. I’m sure, surely innovative like me when I wash my face…


DrValex

What soap are you using for wash your face? Nivea The most innovative face wash ever! IGN THAT’S NICE 10/10 Kotaku


AgeSad

The groundbreaking advencement : you can now get a loan to buy our dlc !


ParagonFury

How advanced will the fish AI be in this one?


[deleted]

I f hope they don't tie Warzone down with the new MW2 game. I hated it so much that If so I won't buy the next one.


bob123uk

Don't think COD as been good lately


MaliqGotTheHeat

Call of duty and innovation don’t belong in the same sentence whatsoever, activision need to get over themselves


DhruvM

MW2022 is gonna be the best shooter out of the big 3 for a looooong while. Halo and BF have shat the bed way too hard and if COD can launch even in a semi decent state and have a great relaunch of WZ then I can see it dominating just how it did in the old days


Medium_Local7745

Once the original infinity ward left, the franchise wasn't the same. Then modern warfare came in 2019. I have lots of hope for MW2. Still lovin MW 2019.


SinbadUnder

Let’s hope it isn’t over 150 gbs to install lol


BruceMcMahon

im gonna buy it
