Activision Promises To Fix Call Of Duty Amid Negative Feedback For Warzone And Vanguard

You can't fix something that was designed by people that don't know wtf they're doing. Fix every glitch in the game, and it won't change anything because the core design is a mess.

@ahpuck: shame on gullible people that got scammed again, by the same one? sounds legit.

@ahpuck: I know. And im sorry. But i can not. I mean, i just cant stop buying ubisoft games. I cant! They provide so many hours of content. You're getting the most bang for your buck.

@ahpuck: blame for what? the huge profit?

@ahpuck: To be fair... I'm not sure that it's completely being air headed.

Honestly, I really do think that what it is with games like CoD is the frog-in-a-pot scenario: the water gets hotter and hotter and hotter and the frog keeps sticking around because it's such a slow worsening that they don't even notice it until the water finally boils and it's dead. They just haven't noticed how little fun they're actually having anymore.

I also think that part of it is also nostalgia for past games and fun times with friends that folks keep sticking around and throwing money at it in the hopes that those times will come back again some day.

Yes, both "arguments" to stick around seem really obvious to those of us who have gone through this cycle before or even in some cases are just standing on the sidelines watching it all but-- again, it's like a bad break up: we can't do it for them.

All we can do is just keep pointing out that things are really far worse than they're telling themselves that they are until they hopefully at long last make that realization for themselves and snap themselves out of it so that they can finally, at long last, walk away to find far, far, far better out there.

Because it's there, we know that it's there-- we see it every day but they just don't right now. Sadly, they're just too busy dealing with the pain and aggravations of what they're stuck in to look around and see it just yet.

@ahpuck: I don’t get it myself, but I guess most of them just find the fun outweighs the negatives OR they are really uninformed and poor consumer.

I don’t like COD, but I really enjoyed Skyrim, Witcher 3, the Division, and Cyberpunk 2077. I never pre-order and I wait until the worst bugs are fixed. So when I buy the game, it is in a state that I know I will enjoy. So, when I do give feedback, I’m not salty and mad, I’m just trying to make it even better.

So, I’m guessing for a lot of folks that really love COD, it might be similar. Though I have little sympathy for folks that buy the game without informing themselves, and then rant and rave about how they are a victims. I’m not absolving game companies that produce poor products, but the best way to fix that is to not buy the game until it is in a state that you find worth the money.

@Barighm: The most succinct and yet thorough example of existential philosophy ever. Bravo!

@Thanatos2k: That's why I want them to go under so badly. Because people have to realize. They haven't really made many stellar projects. For all the money they've been getting.

In the past decade, we got Advanced Warfare, Overwatch, WoW Legion, and MW remake.

Keep in mind scumbag EA gave us BF 4, ME 3, DS 3, Titanfall, BF 1, Titanfall 2, Apex Legends, and SWJ: Fallen Order in the past decade. And they're seen as the more scumbaggy ones.

The company that's doing it for the money more than anyone else. Made more quality games than blizzard who isn't.

@dlist4ever: <Gulps down half a mug of beer> <Slams>Yeah, we have plenty of picks in the sea.

We have dishonored over there. Classy lady, night owl but amazing regardless.

We have Rage. Now don't mind her blue fluffy mohawk and tattoos. She's worth every moment of your time.

Then we have her cousin DOOM. You can't tell by the dress and the green helmet. But she's thicker than a 10-ton boulder, with a face like an angel.

We have Half life. She's more pricey to get with. But is totally worth every penny.

We have Battlefield... She gained over 450lb within the span of 3 years. And gets plastered here every Thursday. And every time she's here. She tries to trick one of these men to take her home... She takes all your money and gives you the hardest time possible. Honestly, staying with her is like picking up a bill for someone else's home that you never visit. Ignore her.

And, Halo. <Amazed whistle> I don't know what she did. But, god, damn! All of it worked perfectly.

@dlist4ever: Cause they're fun
