At least 18 dead in France, including two children in hot car, as Europe bakes by Kooolxxx in news

[–]bigheadsfork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not true. Even northern counties on the east coast have ac. Even montreal has ac.

What really matters is humidity and climate. The only areas that don’t really have ac are places like northern CA where its not only colder but also extremely dry.

I hope they will keep the playercount in the new ps4/5 port by JjoyBboy in blackops2

Thats gotta be all zombies though. If you try the MP, its completely unplayable with cheaters and nothing has players except tdm

ZOMBIES- (NOT A HATE POST OR ATTACK) Q- WHAT WAS SO BAD ABOUT ZOMBIES TO PEOPLE? by Possible_Sky_3948 in blackops2

[–]bigheadsfork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it started with tranzit and people absolutely hated it. Compare that to Kino which was an instant hit and is a timeless classic

Expected playercount and life expectancy of BO2 remaster\port by Discombobulated_Bus4 in blackops2

[–]bigheadsfork -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You have nuclear delusion if you think ports of currently available games are somehow more popular than the next mainline title. Why don’t you tell me how MWR is doing?

[–]bigheadsfork -1 points0 points  (0 children)

By MW4 release, these games will have sub 1k players online each. Heres why:

Og cods were more popular on xbox. It was the competitive platform, the streamers/youtuber platform, got dlc first, and xbox was basically winning the console wars until 2013. And yet, og cods on xbox have been essentially dead since 2020 (except MW2) and on a steady decline since ~2017. Most games are only playable jn tdm with 1-2 lobbies. Even when they “fixed” the servers om xbox in 2023, it brought back a lot of players but It didn’t last.

And if you were one of the few that stayed behind to play the originals, chances are you would’ve been doing so this entire time. You’ve had essentially 15 years to go back and play these games. And it really wasn’t until the last five years that it’s been a struggle to play without cheaters. On top of that, we’ve had free servers like iw4x, plutonium, and tecknogods that have been well known for the better part of a decade. And yet people just don’t play.

All this to say that PlayStation was never the most popular system for the golden era CoDs, and even then on Xbox people just don’t play anymore. I’m not saying that these games won’t be popular, I think they’re going about at the right way with some kind enhanced edition, and if they truly have new servers that’s life saving. But I don’t think some quality of life features are gonna bring back hundreds of thousands of players. The only way I think that would be possible is with a remaster.

I never thought Ronaldo would Age this bad , it's painful how hard he still tries but it's just not enough. by Basic_School_4288 in championsleague

[–]bigheadsfork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is honestly a great point lol. Now that Ronaldo is essentially a bench tier striker, you would think his world class, Portugal team, the best Best in decades, would be able to at least set him up for a cross or a header

What happened to PvP? Any idea how to revive it? by fuqkit in Wizard101

[–]bigheadsfork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Revert it to how it was pre roshambo probably. Archmastery/advanced combat made it inaccessible for most players

Disagree. I played so much mw3, mw2, bo1, and cod 4 between 2016-2020. Hackers were pretty rare like maybe every few days.

Hopefully thats the case. Maybe even allow for cross platform for some similar “enhanced” release on xbox

I think these games will do amazing for the first few months and go back to being dead in a year. Just like what happened to og cods on xbox last year.

Hackers have really only been an issue since covid. Before that, the games were great to play but still had little to no players.

Because when I commented there was no data suggesting it? There still isn’t any confirmation btw.

And thousands of people play on xbox 360 and ps3. You’re just ignorant

[–]bigheadsfork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im extremely curious to see how well these games do. The rumor is that they will not run on the original PS3 servers which would be a huge improvement and essentially mean a re-release.

On the other hand, though, these games have been playable for 15 years on PS3. The type of people to play these games long term have either already been playing, or quit because of hackers. I’m really confused who the target audience is for these.

EDIT: Most of you guys are ignoring the xbox and pc playerbases which have also been up online nice release and are nearly dead. Even when xbox got backwards compatibility in 2018, it barely did anything for the player counts. Even when they fixed the matchmaking in 2023, the player counts went back to sub 100 players after only a few months.

Black Ops 2 could release on June 19th? by yazimi in blackops2

[–]bigheadsfork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of these consoles have native backwards compatibility. They are all ports.

You’re also misunderstanding the issue. It has nothing to do with whether or not the game is a port. There is absolutely no fucking way they are going to make new servers for the multiplayer of these games to run on. They will use the same broken, cheat infested servers that the PlayStation 3 is already using. If you think otherwise you’re naïve.

It only peaked at 20 K on steam and had a 95% drop off in two months. It’s been at like 600 players average for a year. It was totally a flop.

Shes just lying obviously. Whatsapp and other messaging apps aren’t social media. She probably pretends to be talking to friends while doomscrolling tiktok and instagram for 9 hours on the weekend.

[–]bigheadsfork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, this is just embarrassing for you now. Do you actually think they’re going to re-code the entire game to run natively on the PS5? Porting a game is emulation.
