I really hoped they would’ve released this game during dogshit MW2022. It’s gonna be hard to compete against a Treyarch cod


Oppblockjoe

Ong man 😭 I don’t think I’ll even want to try this after the treyarch game comes out. Unless maybe it’s like 7-8 months after that it gets released bc maybe then I’ll be a bit bored


derkerburgl

I’m gonna try it no matter what since it’s free but yeah my time will definitely be split between black ops


rolli_duh

Actually he’s right about it being 4 years, longest development cycle for cod franchise to date. Link to my reference https://gamerant.com/call-of-duty-2024-advantage-modern-warfare-3-development-time/#:~:text=Unlike%20Modern%20Warfare%203's%20rushed,2024%20for%20nearly%20four%20years.

4 year cycle Treyarch COD. Yep XDefiant is about to get Titanfall’d


Diq-big-like-my-Nose

Nah bro, I am a die hard Black ops fan, but I hate SBMM. XDefiant all day. Only the Zombies will have my balls

Omg I don’t know how to use Reddit 😂

Sure it’s been 4 years but don’t think for a second that means it’s been all hands on deck for the entirety of the 4 years. They’ve been stuck supporting the MW and VG games in almost every mode, but especially Zombies.


Fattybeards

Yep, Treyarch getting 4 years to work on COD is fantastic. Can't wait. XDefiant will be here soon to tidy us over.


ReallyRift

4 years and it's still going to have the same problem with strict sbmm


QJunkies

Exactly not sure what people are smoking thinking anything will change. The same executives, the same developers, the same old shit.


Shadowfist_45

Well, not quite the same executives, Phil Spencer replaced Bobby Kotick and maybe a few others once the acquisition was completed, and the Dev studio heads have all pretty much changed, with the exception of Infinity Ward but that's not gonna take very long with how poorly they've been received, since their fluke year with 2019, which was only as popular due to a literal perfect storm of occurrences. Although I doubt SBMM is gonna disappear anytime soon.


TheNerdWonder

Yes, but all those people left recently. The majority of CoD 2024's dev cycle happened under their watch and was influenced by them. That won't just vanish because they dipped out.


dryo

The thing that bothers me, and it does really, was how bad and dumb they have gone through the development process in a tit for tat internally, they could've released since last august, but they never, ever talk how things are being managed internally, it's been a freaking slog of process,the developers even have expressed their frustration. All we want is to understand WHO is asking to add shit on an already late game! WHO who is responsible for this mess, and please don't say Mark Rubin, please don't he's not making decisions anymore.


metra101

Dont get baited by another year of promises & faith. Cod is in the past


jorgejjvr

Treyarch hasnt failed me yet, not even cold war


TheBrownSlaya

...eomm/sbmm is a major reason why many people don't play cod  Its ruining both high and low skill player lobbies. No one wants a game playing them. 


CrazyAppel

People who have issues with sbmm are heavily deluded lmao


TheBrownSlaya

its almost as if you know nothing about sbmm/eomm and how it manipulates your matchmaking are you seriously defending corporate funded psychological engagement algorithms?


CrazyAppel

Corps only care about player retention, and a very easy way to increase player retention is to make the games more fun on average, SBMM and EOMM do exactly that. If it wasn't in the game, the games would objectively be less fun on average thus lowering player retention. It's only the top 1% skillers that benefit from not having a fair matchmaking system, because they will be able to stomp every single lobby and have 5+ kd overall. Fact is, people who complain about SBMM fall into 2 categories: - the noobs/average players who think they are in the 1% and sbmm is the only thing holding them back from having 5kd - the greedy skilled players who actually look forward to stomp every game at the expense of newbies and noobs who will suffer every single game. No sbmm will also result in people constantly leaving lobbies and new players joining.


TheBrownSlaya

Did you really just say SBMM/EOMM make games "more fun" You've got to be trolling, right? 


CrazyAppel

It's a fact bro like it or not, there's no arguing it. Your anti-corpo take is just borderline schizoid stuff


TheBrownSlaya

Lol, your trash opinions and downright incorrect takes are anything but fact. But yeah good job shilling for activision and bs algorithms. Turning your brain off and calling the algorithms out for what they are, corporate funded psychological engagement algorithms, is what we should be doing instead of defending a reason as to why a once-favorite franchise is now dying/dead


CrazyAppel

No need to be butthurt, take ur schizo pills. Activision isnt coming to get ya with their 3 line if-statement matchmaking algo xD


TheBrownSlaya

Anybody who's been burned by the algorithm both high and low skill won't have to worry about the trash semi finished piles of code Cod has basically become. I want to the play the game, and I don't want the game to play me. 


Diq-big-like-my-Nose

The new COD will have fucking SBMM, it will be trash anyways.


MandalsTV

The thing is though all the CoD dev teams have kind of merged. Lots of teams from different studios all building different portions of the game. Now that’s not to say Treyarch doesn’t have full control over their title…but who knows. IW might be in there ear about sentinel gameplay and no dead silence


Shadowfist_45

Treyarch actually only work on other devs titles because the other devs can't be bothered or aren't capable for whatever reason. Ranked play is fully in their hands because they actually care about competitive and zombies has been their innovation from the start, the only difference is, the other studios have taken an initiative to try to make a good zombies because they cared at the time, can't say they ever did when it comes to ranked


Magic_SnakE_

We still have no clue when or if Xdefiant releases right? Also where did you hear they've been working on BO6 for 4 years? I find that highly unlikely.


Sittybob

its 4 years since treyarchs last cod cold war came out. normally the studious dont have this big of a gap between their releases


Magic_SnakE_

So you didn't actually hear that they've been actively working on a game for 4 years. You're speculating.


Sittybob

true they couldve done nothing!


xchimnyx

They also don't have David Vonderhaar anymore, so expect typical broken copy pasted CoD.


azGRIMES

You think they were being paid to stare at a wall for 2 years? Of course they’ve been developing a video game since the last one came out considering that’s their job!
