The COD Vanguard alpha player visibility is a real issue, and here are samples on how hard it is to make out enemies from the background.
Call of Duty: Vanguard has sold over 30 million copies, a milestone confirmed by the game's former social media strategist.
That's the thing about Call of Duty: it gets panned online, but still sells gangbusters.
Begs the question: is the online community complaining truly a vocal minority, or are people just unprincipled? Both I'm sure, but to what extent?
Just like Madden and Fifa (FC), the audience is conditioned to buy every year by EA and ATVI.
Why talk about Vanguard? It was still the best selling game of that year. And at a 70+ metacritic.
Modern Warfare 3 last year was the 2nd best selling game of the year(been awhile since it wasn't 1st) and at a 50+ metacritic.
It would be cool to see the sales for all the call of duties to see if there's a trend and to compare.
I have only bought 2-3 CoD’s ever and the last time I bought one was at least a decade ago. The only reason I bought it back then was to play with my Son who was still in high school. I got some copies for free here and there from friends but I would only play the campaign. I’ve been burned out on PVP since Battlefield Vietnam on PC , Planetside stuff like that. I do enjoy PVE if done well but I doubt I’ll ever play a PVP game again unless they do something totally different than what’s been done before and I don’t see that happening anytime soon.
I have friends that buy every CoD and I ask them why do they still play after 20 years of the same game? Most of them say because of their online friends or real life friends that play it. Not because the game is good or it’s better than the last.
Maybe because people pre ordered it. I have pre ordered every COD since COD MW 2019. I enjoyed mw and cold war. Didn't play beta to vanguard I just pre ordered it like 2 days before release and regretted it a few days after release as it was bad.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II ranked play arrives in 2023. Meanwhile, ranked play gets retired in two older COD games.
Don't laugh but I don't understand as I'm a casual gamer but what's the difference between the MW2 multiplayer that I'm playing online now compared to this ranked play etc? What is ranked play. I thought I was playing with a rank that increases at certain point stages.
Is it going to be crap like all their previous ranked play? Timed events that place you in a ladder and you move up and down in that ladder? Just give us a normal ranked play like every other comp game please, let us move up and down between the ranks based on ELO, for the whole season
Here is a look at what is likely to be the last new map for Vanguard before the new game is released.
Was watching Gareth's gameplay video and one of the kill cam replays showed a person able to see around a door with 50% of their screen showing past the door's edge. The person they killed? Couldn't see them the whole time. Not a good idea at all to allow people to creep view that heavily around corners without the other person being able to see them at all. Only going to turn the game into corner peepers who pop out and discourage those who choose to run and gun.
It’s funny it’s the first place I looked because it’s a important place to look if your in the open middle of the damn map lol. Plus with it being a go to place for people in the alpha. The visibility hasn’t bothered me any. I don’t expect characters to pop out I don’t mind it.
Why do people keep buying this turd?! You deserve better. Command it with your wallets. Have some self control damn you.
I don’t even think zombies is gonna sell me on this one. I played the alpha and it has been one of the worst cod experiences I’ve ever had.
it will sell like hotcakes anyways
