    Wait, Infinite Warfare qualifies as “the grand old days”? Manufactured drama much?

      I remember trying out the beta and finding out this is just slower Titanfall 2 with no Titans and worse movement.

      Isn’t that the ones with the mech suits? I hated the loot box guns so much. Couldn’t compete with those

        Acti CEO reading this article: “so they want more lootboxes?! excellent!”

        disclaimer: I haven’t played a CoD since maybe 4. Only read the odd review

          Last one I played a lot was I think Black ops 4, bought Cold War and was disappointed, especially since I needed an Xbox live subscription to even play single player

          But last one I enjoyed was probably Black ops 2

    Can they please make some ww2 games again? Feel like a simple game with no super powers or super tech and a clear “nazis are bad” message would fo a lot of good for the franchise and the youth

      I have recently been venturing into older CODs to replay the Zombies maps since the mechanics of the older games are a lot more fun than the newer ones. To my surprise, they have solid playerbases even today. Can’t say for sure that the PvP multiplayer modes have players anymore, but jump into World At War if you want a WWII game!

      Also, confidently accept that there will never be another Call of Duty built with an ounce of passion. That age is long gone.
