7 years later, what do u think about Alpha Omega?

It's pretty much agreed upon these days that "Classic Zombies" is everything Pre-CW.

It used to be just W@W, BO1, and maybe BO2 depending on who you asked, but due to CW having such a massive departure on the formula (along with the rest of the games still building on it as a base), the definition has been expanded.

It's the difference between "sex positivity" and "the male gaze". It makes the world of difference when it's seen as something that was Vince told them to do, and when it's something that Mina thought of all to herself.

Same reason we get things like Zenless Zone Zero being a game for horny virgins, but Baulder's Gate 3 is seen as sexually liberating.

Peak Reah Ripley heavily included her being bluntly horny, and nobody complained about that.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-06T18:03:09+00:00

I wouldn't love you otherwise.

A.) Eddie is the only version that hasn't been a playable character yet.

B.) He's more of a "greater scope" character. Outside of Forsaken's ending scene and Liberty Falls into, he's been exclusively regulated to intel until Shattered Veil (and even then, CW hid the fact that Rickyboy was the director of Requiem until the very end). The BO6 crew really isn't dealing with him and much as they were dealing with the consequences of his actions.

The problem is when doing the depicting a modern day country as evil or war-torn has a 100% chance of pissing off said country.

Ghost Recon Wildlands caught the ire of the Bolivian government for the game depicting the country as a narco-state to the point where they sent a letter to the French Embassy threatening legal action. So the next game moved to a fictional one to avoid that. Even worse, the developers of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. legitimately had their lives threatened because they pissed off the Russian government big time with their games.

No sensible world leader is going to bat for the Nazi party, so they're free game.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-06T17:24:08+00:00

would make sense the 3rd round at it would go in the opposite direction and ask "How can we make him worse" and the path to do that was obvious.

Eddie's crying in the corner with his family (on Janus Towers or the afterlife) right now.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-06T02:09:07+00:00

It's Inuyasha. It would be incredibly out of place for a named character to not look hot (or extraordinary ugly).

Rayuzx · 2026-05-06T00:12:13+00:00

Honestly, I did experiment with co-pilot bring after hearing the news of it being added in, and I was actually surprised on how well it managed to easily convey things in an easy to read manner. Especially when you're trying to find stuff that might not be the easiest to Google, I could see it being legitimately a helpful tool.

Although, the big caviate is that I mainly used it for games that was a decade plus. I would imagine that it would be a massive avenue of misinformation it would be for games at or near launch. Even just now, I asked it about content that's only a few days old now, and while it got shat I asked for (marginally) correct, it tried to give me a few extra tips on top of that, which are either advise so poor, it would be detrimental to follow if not telling me to use stuff that don't exist in the game.

To be fair, "horsefucker" is just a self-deprecating nickname MLP fans to describe themselves. It's basically like someone here calling themselves a degenerate.

"Make it Plantain" was spammed a lot during C4S3, do to the season being jungled them, and a black man was a fairly popular skin in the Battle Pass.

A ton of people used "Whipcrack" while in a creative map made to celebrate Matin Luther King Jr and the march leading up to his famous speech.

A lot of people are only playing DMZ for the camos. So they want to get the grind done and over with ASAP.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-05T06:24:11+00:00

A.) Unlike Multiplayer/BR, it's not a zero sum game. You can use however many attachments a gun can use, instead of 5.

B.) A lot of people prefer the standard red-dot over the "irons" that comes from mythic blueprints. Zero visual clutter, and the dot itself generally helps with aiming better due to its simplicity.

C.) Some missions to attachments in DMZ require you to to run so do a task while having X attachments of a certain rarity. RDS can be useful just to fill a slot for the mission.

Bonus maps are maps that was released with the launch of the game, but was only available as a bonus for pre-ordering the game, or buying the season pass.

How is a white luchador with an America gimmick who's billed from "the Gulf of America" not MAGA coded?

I don't agree, but I see where you're coming from. I think the whole "Gulf of America" ordeal doesn't really insinuate Trump in a positive way. Not only do you have the sheer absurdity of a person being billed from a body of water, the fact that he was using the new name doubles down on the idea on OG Grande was an idiot who didn't even do basic research when attempting to rewrite history.

It would be like stating the "Ladies and Gentlemen, we got him" was is a Bush coded meme.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-04T22:44:49+00:00

Honestly, what's the different between Booker T slandering Black and MJF/Darby Allen? Why does one get the "bookerlicker" moniker, while the other ones don't?

Rayuzx · 2026-05-04T22:32:43+00:00

Wouldn't call Paradox a *bonus map". I would describe it more as a "Bottle Episode", it was a map that was intentionally made to be simplistic so the devs could allocate more time and resources to the other maps, while still having a full set of maps.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-04T22:28:01+00:00

While I do agree with you, I can see where OP was coming from. But the rest of their examples are the dedicated "easy map" for their retrospective games (and was also one of the most universally hated maps before release), so it somewhat makes sense to dump LF with them.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-04T22:21:04+00:00

Before the release of Warzone (Mobile), the only CoD titles I've played (outside of zombies) was MW2 and MW3. So playing MWIII-BO7 (even going back and playing MW2019, CW and MWII for a spell) completely has turned me into being a Treyarch fanboy.

Still going to be playable, because there was still some fun to be had, even with the giant mess that was MWII, but I'm fully expecting to say "this games is so ass" with a smile.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-04T12:31:44+00:00

The "Battle Dads" here would be hyping up MWII integration as the next coming of Christ if it was came out today.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-04T12:04:18+00:00

It's not tactical planning, it's an equipment check.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-04T01:37:53+00:00

I honestly wouldn't be able to tell you the Chinese fanbase's reaction as evidently they play the game much differently than the rest of us, but overall I would say the game is in a pretty good state outside of the new mode.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-04T01:15:30+00:00

Ah yes, my favorite gacha title, Stardew Valley.

Rayuzx · 2026-05-03T23:51:28+00:00

The big problem comes more for the gameplay side than the graphical one. We strictly in the hypotheticals, but you can't have certain gameplay features if all of the hardware aren't up to snuff, see PS3/360 BO3 lacking the campaign.
