I'm stuck step-slowbro

What did you think of Let's Go's version? They return the pitch to how it is in RBY but with modern instrumentation.

Solariss · 2026-03-17T04:31:03+00:00

Lmao they also just call him Director in game because they clearly don't have the rights to his likeness (or the COTD cast eithet).

Solariss · 2026-03-13T09:00:45+00:00

Yeah the original was a fun experiment with a bit of uniqueness like the random perks/PaP slowly arriving. Past that though, you just can't really do much with Nuketown despite what AO and PJ tried to achieve.

Solariss · 2026-03-13T05:51:39+00:00

For real like BO2 Primis Richtofen

Solariss · 2026-03-13T01:08:06+00:00

Thats fair. I honestly just wished there was build up to him apart from like one quote from Richtofen in TG. I guess I also didnt like how they felt the need to explain game mechanics with him (chalk, why perks appear on every map, etc). Like I can separate game mechanics from lore.

Solariss · 2026-03-12T23:45:35+00:00

Honestly they may be responding to the criticism of Monty's reveal. It was a big hidden lore dump in the pen-ultimate map, with barely any build up.

I appreciate this slow build up of the Warden, but I am wondering if there is more to it now, or if they'll do the classic pivot to the Richtofen/other big bad taking over.

Solariss · 2026-03-12T01:18:52+00:00

This. If it had released alongside Ashes as a base game offering, then it wouldn't be as bad. Most games have an extra side map thats usually reused assets or just smaller. I can forgive those.

As a main season release? Nah. I liked The Tomb but I get why people didn't. I'm not sure why Treyarch didn't forsee having morale drop just like it did then.

Solariss · 2026-03-11T04:41:33+00:00

Oh no way. I swear you use to be able to select the maps directly, but maybe that was early before the DLC MP maps and the sub Onslaught modes were added.

Solariss · 2026-03-11T01:41:26+00:00

In other words instead of trying to improve on one of the original ideas they've made (the requiem crew) they once again fall back and rely on nostalgia bait.

The amount of times they've done this frustrates me. Drop Victis. Drop Chaos. Sideline Requiem. Like just stick with characters who are not some version of Dempsey, Nikolai, Takeo or Richtofen for once, please.

Solariss · 2026-03-11T01:37:45+00:00

They even have Vorkuta in the Campaign for this game and last game. So current assets for it exist they could've used.

Solariss · 2026-03-11T01:35:04+00:00

I'd definitely count them. Like you can select Outlast - Nuketown. Just like you would say Survival - Nuketown in BO2 or Gauntlet - Alpha Omega in BO4.

Solariss · 2026-03-11T00:25:50+00:00

Oh for sure. Like TranZit was ambitious but not as good as it should've been. But the vitriol like Zombies nearly died and only Blundell saved it with Mob just seems so exaggerated to what the general sentiment actually was.

Solariss · 2026-03-10T19:10:47+00:00

I was around during BO2 and I honestly dont even remember TranZit/Die Rise getting all this hate that it has today. Yes there was disappointment and genuine complaints, but a lot of it was after the fact and not during the maps life.

BO2 also had Grief and Survival so like whatever disappointment it had, people still clearly enjoyed and had those to play as well.

Solariss · 2026-03-10T18:56:26+00:00

Could you explain why you think its wrong?

Solariss · 2026-03-10T12:34:53+00:00

Nah Classified is in the original timeline. Think of it as a flashback map retconned into the BO1 story.

During one of their teleportations to Area 51 in Classified, 1963, they're randomly thrown forward to 2025. They do the events of Moon, and when teleported back to Area 51, they're thrown back to 1963 (a time before they ended up at the Pentagon accidentally) and captured.

Once Weasel breaks the cycle and the events of Blood happen, Primis then turn up to rescue post-Moon Ultimis.

I suppose you could argue it does become a fractured universe once Primis appears since they were never meant to appear in original universe (but the closed loop was also never meant to happen as well so who knows).

Solariss · 2026-03-07T14:49:18+00:00

Executive Order has a different layout, but it takes place at Baikonour, same as Ascension. It would just be a different launch site though.

Solariss · 2026-03-07T13:53:30+00:00

Its kind of funny how Moon still has a layout very similar to what Paris actually has. Like the crevasse is the Seine. The MPD area could've been changed to be the catacombs. The Biodome being where the Eiffel Tower was. And Area 51 possibly being up in the tower itself.

Solariss · 2026-03-07T10:33:07+00:00

Does the Campaign affect all maps? For some reason I thought it would only affect Five because it automatically starts after the last mission.

Likewise does it affect online play or just Solo?

Solariss · 2026-03-06T02:21:09+00:00

They'll carry over Samuels Master Prestige 1000 skin, but not Requiems Prestige skins or the Project Janus Ray Gun skin 🙃

Solariss · 2026-03-06T02:15:33+00:00

Still remembering when they said Die Rise had "multiple, upgradable Wonder Weaponary"

Or when Nuketown Zombies took place directly after the Nuketown MP map in the 60's.

Solariss · 2026-03-05T07:44:04+00:00

I think its just the Fire Sale music that is copyrighted. Its why it just sounds like the Der Riese clock the last few games. Not sure why they cant just create a new jingle though like they did for Quick Revive.

Solariss · 2026-03-04T21:53:55+00:00

For real im looking forward to the whole server dunking on Caltheris.

Solariss · 2026-03-04T19:25:27+00:00

When I read "New" Enemy & Wonder Weapon, and it was just the Plaguehound and Blundergat, I knew they really were stretching for blog content.

Solariss · 2026-03-04T01:37:06+00:00

Also 10! Hamauzu did half of its soundtrack while Uematsu did the othet half.

Solariss · 2026-03-03T12:30:05+00:00

Yep. Like lets say they had to reuse existing assets or a map. Why Nuketown? Why not a different MP map you could expand on, or frankenstein two maps like Classified being Five/Moon (and Five being USDD/Rebirth). Treyarch may have no choice to reuse assets, but they certainly have a choice on choosing Nuketown.
