Propaganda shit aside. What the fuck is this, man? The original betrayal was simple but the new one is convoluted, takes forever, becomes a John Wick movie, and le roooosia was behind everything!!!

the two things that stand out to me are:

  1. How corny the new skull mask looks

  2. The sheer ridiculousness of the opening firefight taking place at a range of 10 meters in the open. It’s like a Nerf fight

The game really is just corny as shit. All the “Operators” are wearing a bizarre mix of airsoft gear, fashionable hoo-ah shit from 2005, and like dive suits and shit. Just bizarre. The default Ranger skins are actually dressed like, you know, actual soldiers, so it’s not that no one on the art team knew what was what.

And yeah the skull masks just look dumb.

The only realistic things about it were the weapon designs, graphics, and some of the weapon handling. Everything else is just call of duty but with more banter

I think the skull mask looks pretty good :shrug-outta-hecks:

With all the three laned maps and long time to kill weapons with laser bullets and no recoil, call of duty multiplayer has basically been a Nerf fight mixed with laser tag since black ops 2. With some weird jumpsuits in between in a few games. They tried to change it with warzone and the modern warfare reboot in 2019/2020, but I don’t know how successful it was.

The average and slightly above average COD player has no understanding why the COD games are enjoyable to them, so all they did was complain. They complain about skill-based match-making, they complain about “noob weapon spam,” they complain about having bad teammates, they complain about spawn camping, they complain when the maps are big enough to not have spawn camping. They literally judge the game by how well they do in it and anything that levels the playing field (i.e. they’re not stomping kids in matches) makes it bad.

Seriously, the old skull balaclava and goggles thing Ghost had in the OG at least looked like something someone would wear. All I can think of looking at new Ghost is how he had to get that mask custom made and then put on facepaint to match it before every single mission, it’s so dorky.
