I'll be fine as long as they do a good job with their Zombie mode

Black Ops 3 Zombies mode is the least I've ever played a Zombie mode. I liked 1, 2 was great because there were smaller maps you could just play and survive as long as you could with you mates but in 3... we got 1 map, which was confusingly big, with goals in that I didn't understand and they wasted money on it to get Jeff Goldblum to voice a character in it. It was 1 mode, no option to change. So sad.



Hmm, pie.

The maps of BO3 wasnt as fun or creative as the previous ones (which is why i was glad they brought the old ones back) but I did like that they provided the new maps with more of a purpose with the whole easter egg and completing the story with the 4 original characters.

I'm hope now that the original cast story is done that they can focus on that new cast of 4 that was in the Die Rise map.

Yeah, those millions of gamers didn't even beat the game which means they spend most of their time on multiplayer. Skip the campaign and focus on making multiplayer great. Also, it would be great if new COD were 40 dollars.

Millions still managed to beat the game. Did you bother to do the math?

I doubt it will be 40 dollarydoo's, this is Activision remember.

Yeah, but most spend their time on multiplayer. Also, it won't be 40 dollars right away, but give it a couple weeks and it will. I remember the last COD drop to 40 dollars after a month.

Fair enough. Life's too short, and there isn't enough time to play the games we want to play, let alone the games that turn us off.

That said, my pre-judgment of IW was way off the mark. After watching the trailer, I figured the game would be generic and uninspired. I found it to be pretty great. That's the campaign though. If you're a multiplayer guy, then you made the right choice skipping.

I thought the campaign for it looked cool as fuck. I really wanted to buy the game just for it. But I've held off, for some reason. The thing is, triple A games come out and replace each other so quickly. They rely so much on the "hype train" that I haven't bought as many triple A games as I'd like to. Weird statement, I know, but me not buying Infinite Warfare really had nothing to do with being against the publisher....

I guess I'm going off on a ramble. But I find it interesting how ironically superficial nearly all of Infinite Warfare's hate was pre-release.

Doesn't matter how the majority spend their time.
My point still stands that millions of gamers still beat the single player... Ergo it is clearly an important incentive for millions of gamers to buy the game for that component.

Oh it was totally superficial, no doubt. But, to be fair, this is what we had to work with:

When we actually saw some gameplay footage it looked pretty darn good:

Well that's the thing. It just looks like every other Call of Duty game. 

The only thing offensive was the use of Bowie

They chaseing that "Hero Shooter" / "overwatch" money.... 

The more I think about this, the less sense it makes. Overwatch is made by Blizzard, Activision's sister company. Wouldn't this just cannibalise their own product?
