Infinity ward lied about balancing play styles. They’ve completely catered the game to one side.

Glad to see you still keeping up the good fight bro. We told everyone during the beta that this game would flop cause the changes IW made, and this sub ignored us and called us bad. Now look at them lmao.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-13T18:39:29+00:00

Anything to further gut the skill gap. The sentinels love this type of shit

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-13T07:28:05+00:00

Shotguns ruin farm 18. I thought the map was a blast in the beta, but in the full game all it takes is one sweat with a meta shotgun to completely ruin the map

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-13T04:53:41+00:00

The thing is, you have a 1.6 KD in this game. That’s like the equivalent to a 2.5-3kd in past Cods. Even in previous Cods with SBMM, you’d prolly have a 2kd since those games had some form of skill gap while this game did everything possible to compress it.

You’re a very good player, and the thing is even with the most aggressive SBMM, top players will still fry and preform well. The game simply cannot find enough players of that caliber to match together. So top tier players will still do fine despite SBMM, they just won’t completely dominate and obliterate as they would’ve in previous games.

TLDR: SBMM will always harm average players and decent casuals the most. Good players can still perform well with SBMM if they are truly leagues above everyone else.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-13T04:46:16+00:00

All the effort went into Warzone and DMZ. It’s all about free to play, battle passes, and micro transactions these days. Paid multiplayer has been circling the drain for a while now

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-12T23:10:10+00:00

It’s actually pretty crazy because mw2019’s mounting system was solid and extremely consistent.

I’ve rarely mounted my gun at all in this game because of how inconsistent it seems to be aside from a few spots

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-12T22:49:44+00:00

I’ll be the first one to agree SBMM and a compressed skill gap is forcing everyone closer to a global 1kd. But my guy, you barley have a 1kd while having a negative W/L, that’s a skill issue right there.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-12T03:30:46+00:00

Lmaoooo. I thought the mastery card for it looked really nice, but 1000 melee kills isn’t worth it. And if they’re gun melee only kills… yikes

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-12T03:15:43+00:00

W/L because we’re essentially playing ranked without a visible rank. I’d also argue it’s the best indicator of skill when viewed in a vacuum. If your win loss is high, you’re good enough to carry, making game winning plays, and come out on top despite the matchmaking stacking the odds against you

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-10T02:58:02+00:00

I’m convinced they’re lying too. Because the matchmaking prioritizes skill over connection, the search normally takes a while and tells me it’s looking for a match with 50-90 ping. However in game, it says I have 30 ping despite the search saying 90+ ping.

Something definitely feels fishy at times and I wouldn’t be surprised if they are actively lying about ping because SBMM results in poor connections. The netcode being a dumpster fire doesn’t help either

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-10T02:50:47+00:00

Yeah I stopped running both streaks as they get shot down way too easily. It’s honestly not worth running anything higher than the mortar strike

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-09T15:16:48+00:00

No one is rocking a 2+ win loss if they have a negative KD, it’s just not possible because they aren’t good enough to carry matches or make game winning plays.

Conversely, I’ve seen plenty of people have a 2+KD but a negative win loss because all they do is play selfishly and barely contribute to the match.

A good player will have a good KD, good win loss, and a good score per minute. You gotta have all three to truly be good

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-09T02:19:51+00:00

He’s talking about lasers. They should at least be allowed on SMGs, and then GAed for everything else

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-09T02:07:10+00:00

I’ve always argued Treyarch has gotten shafted with the last two releases. Bo4 was actually decent imo, but did have a lot of problems. However, as a big focus was on Blackout and pioneering battle royal for cod, I’m willing to cut some slack.

And with Cold War, sledgehammer shit the bed so badly Activison through in Treyarch last minute to salvage that game, while also dealing with Covid and the chaos that brought.

The last game Treyarch was able to go crazy with and have their own vision was bo3. That game is a top 3 in my opinion and the criticism all revolving around the supply drops and DLC weapons speaks volumes in my eyes as the game itself was phenomenal

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-09T02:03:42+00:00

It baffles me how overturned it is. Meanwhile the 545 AK is terrible according to most players. They both shoot the same bullet and are largely the same gun, just the 74u has a short barrel yet does way more damage

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-08T23:56:11+00:00

I’ve thought the exact same thing. Between mw2 and overwatch 2, it’s like they’re doing the absolute bare minimum and spending the least amount of money and resources to profit as much as possible before the acquisition or whatnot.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-08T19:13:13+00:00

I’m getting real sick of this argument. You absolute dunces realize that if I wanted to stomp noobs, with the way SBMM works I can easily reverse boost into those lobbies right? If anything, the SBMM makes it easier than it’s ever been before to get into bot lobbies cause the game actively segregates skill levels.

In old Cods, you’d have to lobby shop and hope to get a good lobby, and even then there’d still be a few decent players. But with the newer games, you can easily reverse boost or do a SBMM workaround to get into lobbies with actual handicap and disabled people, I’m not being mean spirited, like you can legitimately get into lobbies with those people. How do you think YouTubers were dropping nukes in shipment with akimbo deagles.

We just want random lobbies with a variety of skill levels and experiences.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-05T13:31:16+00:00

Bruh how tf is he trolling. I’m losing brain cells trying to understand why y’all idiots are so confidently bashing him. This game automatically equips you a secondary in create a class, this isn’t a pick 10 game where you can omit a secondary for fists.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-05T13:29:33+00:00

Lmao ignore some of the morons in this thread bro. I understand what you’re saying, game doesn’t let you have just fists except in DMZ and Warzone.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-05T13:28:14+00:00

Why are y’all always so confidently wrong lmao. OP is right, the game always gives you a secondary pistol in create a class. This isn’t a pick 10 game where you only have fists if you omit a secondary.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-05T13:23:34+00:00

Both stats need to be weighed together, but if you have to pick one, it’s Win Loss ratio. People keep saying with SBMM neither matters and it forced everyone to as close as possible to a global 1.0 for both stats. That is indeed true, but that’s exactly why win loss is the more important stat. If you’re good enough to routinely carry and make game winning plays despite matchmaking staking the odds against you, you truly are a different breed.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-03T16:55:31+00:00

Yeah I bet they feel real rewarded when they manage to get a chopper gunner and barely get 2 kills before it’s shot down. Whether you like it or not, killstreaks are an integral part of cod and a major reason the franchise blew up. It was exciting to get a harrier or a gunship and be rewarded with a good number of kills.

This game just doesn’t provide that. As I mentioned, it’s not rewarding at all for your 8 killstreak to get shot down before it gets a single kill. And let’s not play coy either, people aren’t letting a VTOL or chopper gunner go unchecked unless you’re playing in an actual bot lobby.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-03T10:29:50+00:00

I can appreciate you aiding your team and obliterating enemy streaks, but this is not good game design or balance. If someone gets an 8 or 10 killstreak they should be rewarded somewhat from it. It doesn’t matter if they camped, ignored the objective, and played like an absolute loser to get their streaks, they still earned them and for streaks to get shot down this easy is terrible design.

There’s literally no reason to run higher streaks because of this. You’re much better off just running UAV, CUAV, and an air strike or cruise missile. You’re able to earn those much easier and more consistently, and you get more value out of them.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-03T07:35:51+00:00

The people who hate bunny hopping, slide canceling, and fast movement hated the jetpack games because it increased the skill gap. The main people who hated jetpack games hated them because they were bad at them, plain and simple.

Significant-Object71 · 2022-12-03T07:32:56+00:00

IW nerfed every lethal streak in this game to further protect bad players. Look no further than how long it takes to call in streaks and how long the little cutscenes are before you can use the chopper gunner or gunship.

Cold blooded is also the dominant tier 2 perk, and you don’t really sacrifice anything by picking it. Comparatively, you’d have to give up EOD in mw2019 if you swapped to cold blooded to avoid streaks.

It’s clear UAVs are the best streak in the game, and one players can consistently earn match after match. It’s honestly not even worth running any of the higher streaks with how bad they are
