Hey all, you know the deal...
The other thread hit over 1,000 posts and we have server issues when that shit happens so here she be, a fancy new mega thread.
Anyway, just a quick rundown.
Post anything and everything gaming in here. Console games, handheld/mobile games or PC.
Playing something you love or maybe hate? Find a hidden gem on Steam? Let us know via a review. Try to make sure you give a good rundown on it. Graphics, sound, storyline, overall gameplay and replayability. Let's keep it at a 1-10 scale.
Thanks to all that left me awesome rep comments/posts and even pm's thanking me for the many reviews I wrote.
Just an FYI, developers do read our comments in here I guess. CD Projekt Red (of Witcher 3) was one that stopped by.
Anyway, thanks all for your input and as always, no griefing. [Reply]

I know this is an old post but theres a new year coming up and its about the same cost.
also , if you look around you can get the entire year for less .. like 75$
but you dont NEED the entire year packages, its just better to buy a whole year than a season at a time, i think
I didn't like the fact they take away content especially since it doesn't have enough varied PVE content for me to wanna keep grinding. I really only like the open world activities and strikes. [Reply]

Gonna get the new GOW tomorrow too. Pretty excited for it. I still need to beat the new Horizon. It's starting to get cold out so I'll want to stay indoors more and play.
I recently got the MW2 PS5 bundle and I'm a little mixed on it myself.
It's CoD so it's generally more of the same thing they've been pumping out for a decade now, but I don't like the new perk system or the weapon unlock system either.
For the perks: for each loadout you have two optional perks that you will start the game with. Then each loadout has an additional perk that will be unlocked roughly 5 minutes into the match, followed by an ultimate perk that will activate roughly 8 minutes into the match.
On top of that weird system, I don't like the perks much themselves. I've found myself settling on using "scavenger" which is one that I basically never used in previous games simply because the other options suck balls.
Also, and this is a more annoying issue for me at the moment, the weapon system requires you to unlock certain guns by using other guns, often from a completely different class. I mainly use SMGs and am trying to unlock all of them to see which one I like best, but instead of them all unlocking after reaching a certain level like normal, instead they require you to do research on which guns you'll need to use and level up before you even unlock it.
For example, there is an SMG I want to unlock called, idk, the Hurricane. In order to unlock it, I must first level the Kastov, which is an assault rifle, to level 12, but in order to do that I must first unlock the Kastov which requires me to level the Whatchamacallit, which is a sniper rifle, to level 25.
It is truly the stupidest fucking thing on the planet and I'm not sure what fucking psycho signed off on it. [Reply]
I said 'unlock' a lot in that post, but you get my point.
Idk who thought that shit was a good idea, but it's fucking infuriating me right now. I just want to find the best SMG for me and instead they're making me use these dumbass single-fire rifles that I have literally NEVER used in any CoD I've ever played.
Oh, and not that this matters, but they've seemed to have done away with checking your stats. You can't even see your lifetime K/D or confirms/denies in Kill Confirmed, none of that. Small thing but still weird. [Reply]
Don't get me wrong, I still have a ton of fun when I play.
This is my first CoD since WW2 so I'm not sure if this is new, but they allow you to choose multiple game modes prior to queuing. So I've just been picking TDM, FFA, Kill Confirmed and Domination and I can get into a diverse array of matches super quickly.
I just.. truly don't understand the logic behind forcing people to use one gun in order to unlock another. [Reply]

Wow. I was really considering purchasing this, but that sounds incredibly frustrating. [Reply]
Yeah, like I said, I enjoy the game, but the more I think about it, the more it pisses me off. Why the fuck would they think this was a good idea? All you do is piss off your player base. No one benefits from me having to play with single-fire rifles and LMGs when I don't want to play with them. I'm truly baffled as to what their thought process was.
And this quote shows exactly what I'm talking about. Note how many of these weapons you need to use are not even SMGs. It's absurd.

I don't mind when they gate upgraded weapons. It helps the player avoid becoming OP and ruining the game (I'm big on difficulty myself, I want a challenge).
But gating NEW weapons and forcing you to use weapons you don't even want to use is whack. [Reply]
Modern Warfare 2019 was superb. Probably the best COD ever.
This one feels SOOOO much worse for some reason. Everything from perks, to the maps, to the weird unfinished feel of it. The skins and weapons progressions. Nothing is intuitive.
To me, 2019 was like a 95/100 and this is like a 70/100. I was so excited for this one and just feel so underwhelmed. [Reply]
I actually purchased the PS5 call of duty bundle, the damn thing plays good on the ps5. I actually like this call of duty. The last one I played was black ops 3 I think. [Reply]
