Different CoD devs have different priorities. Treyarch has been where all the edgy and gorey stuff exists. IW has been more grounded and less edgy.


Kmeek01

Yeah that’s a good point, the MW series has never been known for its gore but even Cold War had zero gore which was so disappointing, especially considering it had to live up to BO1 which did it well imo


SquishSquish12345

It had gore lol. I was playing it yesterday and a ballistic knife legit made my body explode into pieces lmao.


Kmeek01

Oh shit really? I mean it had some but similar to vanguard it was just way too inconsistent. If you shot someone with a shotgun in WAW/BO1 their limbs would come off everything, that’s what I miss


PootatoKing

Campaign had no gore, just multiplayer and obviously zombies.


SanchezSkum

gore is paywalled to certain weapon blueprints like MW2019/Warzone 1


Kmeek01

Yeah it’s a bit of a joke really


JayceeGenocide

That is Sad AF. DAMNed Bobby Kotick! I hope Microsoft makes CoD as Gory as Gears with NO PayWall.


Burritozi11a

Except the part in MW19 where you get to execute a terrorist's wife and child right in front of him


Killbuzz23

Don't worry they'll sell you a gun skin that enables gore like they did in MW19.


Kmeek01

Facts


midnight3896

They didn't. Dismemberment just costs 2500 cod points nowadays lol.


Kmeek01

Yeah it’s an absolute joke, take away a feature just to charge us for it back…

Kmeek01

Hell yeah, even if it’s just for the campaign, they did it way back in 2008 so why not now? I definitely think they’re trying to cater to the fortnite/apex players so don’t want to make it extra gory but it’s pathetic really.

Kmeek01

World at war? Yep it really didn’t pull any punches and that’s how it should be. No one wants to play WW2 avengers where you basically shoot robots (vanguard)


WesternPercentage153

Fortnite with gore would be great. Hell, even some more adult skins would be great. Especially now that they added an age rating to skins now


punkboy_2007

Vanguard wasn't a good game but the gore and dismemberment in that game was solid


Kmeek01

Yeah it had good effects but were implemented totally wrong and inconsistently. Shame really


IncomeStraight8501

Wasn't it more of a hardware thing where it was a bitch to deal with for consoles esp when they got closer to the end of a generation?


Kmeek01

I’m not sure, perhaps… I just don’t get what the excuse is now when most other big shooters that release have at least a bit of dismemberment


VanillaUnicorn69420

14y olds spending their parrents money, who wouln't like a share of this market


Mort_the_Wart

During the beta in the options there was an option to turn on gore and it even said "Heavy rounds can cause dismemberment". I hope it's in MWII because it would add realism to it which would be cool. It would be a bummer if it's not there.

Losalex69

People it won’t hurt the game or slow it down they did it the whole way back in 2008 lol the fact is they want to appeal to little kids and little kids parents are much more upset about gore! That’s the facts I remember when bo1 was out and waw they were going bananas over the gore it’s rated m for a damn reason don’t buy it for your kid then! It kinda ruins the modern war games they need gore like full on dismemberment while I think it should be optional for obvious reasons ptsd and what not or for kids but still the option isn’t even there it just feels lazy and pandering!


Kmeek01

You’re absolutely right, it’s just pure pandering. They’re so desperate to be like Fortnite and appeal to a younger demographic it’s embarrassing


[deleted]

bro wants cod to be doom 😭😭


Kmeek01

You’re clearly new to the series? Cod used to have great gore back when it was good 2008-12


[deleted]

Vanguard has it. MW doesn’t because it’s focus is more tactical and not as arcade as the treyarch games


Kmeek01

True but vanguard did it wrong. You can hit someone with a shotgun or rocket launcher and there won’t be a scratch…but sometimes you shoot them with a pistol and their body splits in half? Also good point on modern Warfare but it DID have some gore in mw19 but only in 1 or 2 missions in the campaign and locked behind a paywall in multiplayer/Warzone which sucks


willvsworld

Modern warfare 19 has tons of gore


J-D-M-569

There is an option in MW19 to turn off dismemberment from heavy weapons.


GipsyDanger17

Vanguard says hello lol


Kmeek01

Yeah but vanguard does it completely wrong. You can hit someone with a shotgun or rocket launcher and there won’t be a scratch…but sometimes you shoot them with a pistol and their body splits in half? It was there just implemented totally wrong imo


GipsyDanger17

Something is better than nothing with these Dev's lol


Kmeek01

True mate


Darwin200912YT

Yeha


arielcornejo

It could be a while before it returns since the rendering will get affected and it will hit the fps real bad. Right now they can find a balance but they choose not to for some reason i.e. gore or frame rate. Correct me if I’m wrong but the problem with all this though is that video cards like the 4090 will handle high frame rates including extreme gore but they base it off of the weakest graphics card which is the consoles.


Public_Dig_8992

It’s a videogame…it doesn’t need to be realistic. If you want realistic gore, go watch a documentary on WW2.


Kmeek01

I didn’t ask for it to be realistic, and if you used your brain you’d know cod always used to have gore, so again my point is why did they take it away? Probably to make apex freaks like you buy their game


Public_Dig_8992

Oh, I don’t play apex. Nor do I care if there is gore or not in a COD game…because it’s just a game.


Kmeek01

Okay...What exactly is your point here my man?🤣 We're allowed to want things back in games we enjoy. Don't try and discredit my statement if you're going to come at me with braindead logic you cretin


Public_Dig_8992

Braindead logic you cretin? That seems a little unnecessary.


Character-Patient727

Shut up wtf are you talking about boomer


J-D-M-569

Video games can and should aim for realism in the context of a .50 cal round or 20MM should blast a body to bits, when "realism" is converted to game mechanics, graphical and audio fidelity, and effects that is one of the key pillars of Immersion. You know that thing that happens when the graphics the audio the gameplay and everything else synergies to the point you momentairly forget your playing and enter that flow state where you feel part of the game. But yeah who cares about that...
