How is the COD local MP more fun on the wiiu?

Read the digitalfoundry article, they make it pretty clear. But to be resourceful, it has a dedicated screen for each player (one on the TV, one on the padlet).

It's had positive feedback thus far.

I'm sorry but that doesn't sound like 'more' fun at all. I think you are not understanding what makes cod local MP great. Having two screens to focus on is a negative in a twitch shooter like this. 

I don't get what you mean here either if each player has their own screen locally how can that not be a better experience?

Also was reggie supposed to say dude did his job the lady never had any rebuttales.  


Well shes an anchor for a world news CNN, what do you expect? Let an industry professional speak to reggie and watch them go no holds barred.

Is that guy blind or is it just false advertisement?

I know what makes local MP great, I'm a gamer. What's your point?

2 screens, 1 per player, no twitching.


sigh have you even played local cod MP? the most fun you can have is watching the game on a splitscreen tv. You can watch and anticipate each others movements. If you have to look at two places it's not good for a shooter of this kind. 

no twitching? I think you don't know what this term means. Call of duty IS a twitch shooter

so again ..what exactly about having two screens make the cod a more 'fun' experience?

What's fun about knowing where other people are on the map? I always hate that because I always felt it was cheating. 

Look at 2 places? You know that in local MP on the Wii U one person uses the gamepad while the other uses either the controller pro or the wiimote.

Simple. Screen peeking is less ideal when it means having to look away from your specified screen (either GamePad or TV) to do it.

lol the hell...isn't this what makes a splitscreen the better option? Same screen and you can see the other user. I realy don't understand what you trying to say here

@mad55: again..this COD! the best thing about this series is local splitscreen MP. Having multiple screens makes no sense (unless you have a really small tv) and definitely doesn't sound like more fun. This is in fact the first time I'm even hearing this argument.

and no Hyperbole to an extent is acceptable in PR..Spin is expected too..but this is lying though. 


Local multiplayer is fun until people start screen hacking.

lol jesus christ...at least try and understand and read everything I typed people :D You guys are like some pack or something ...but sure I'll respond

ugh no that's not cheating lol You do realize there's a map showing where the other players are? It's part of the game design. When you have it all in one screen you can time and approach others differently and it makes the encounters much more fun.

And yes THIS is what I was referring to. To do this, if you are using two screens for two players then this aspect is gonna be missing from the game. 

And let's face it..you people honestly truly believe this is gonna be a selling point for the COD crowd? Really?

That's interesting. I always considered it to be better/fairer/more realistic to not know where your enemy is. I've heard this argument applied to Madden - wouldn't it be great if the other player doesn't see the play you choose? One way or another, if you still prefer the one-screen local option, it's there.

I agree, but if shes such a sidenote why is this thread 11 pages it seems like people are making more of this than their needs to be.

Ughh..... what the fuck is this, the inquisition?

Yes, I have.

Some people, who play fair, keep their eyes off their mates' screen, it has nothing to do with being blind.

I had a friend who actually put a matress across his big-screen tv to ensure other players don't peak.

 

Anyways, what's your point? That it's not a cool feature, for certain? I told you to read the DF article. I also meantioned other sources of positive feedback for the feature. Are you denying them?
