    • @theglassarrow_
      @theglassarrow_ 4 месяца назад +3

      Its primarly to applies to a larger player base. zombies makes up a small amount of players, while most just play multiplayer. multiplayer in fps/3person shooters, have taken an open world approach for the last several years (almost a decade now, pub-g and fortnight came out in 2017, 7 years now) and have taken over other game modes.
      if you want the most players have open world maps in short. the original zombies formula doesn't take well to that. There is also a push for just making new things in each game. no one actually pushes for the same game with updated graphics every year, while COD can do this simply due to the fact you get all content re-shuffled (different maps/guns) and the player base moving on to avoid small lobbies.
      Zombies desperately needs a stand alone game, that gets years of support, rather then tacked on at this point. look at something like r6 that doesn't need a new game every year. same formula while has gotten stale there, has worked for them since 2015. we don't see games get lifespans that long anymore.

    For me the COD killer is COD themselves, warzone changed the game for the worst. They started putting all their effort in warzone, and now they don't even put effort in their games anymore. They need to stop experimenting with warzone aspects in zombies because its truly not working, not many people like it. All we want is a simple hud (NO WARZONE ASPECTS), simple round based, simple perks, simple story, simple characters (NO OPERATORS), and that's what made zombies work back then. And of course from the rumors of gulf war they are still keeping warzone aspects like seriously... Do we really need armor, no that's what jug is for. Do we need salvage parts to craft items, no. Do we need more salvage parts to upgrade our weapons rarity, no. Do we need to have different tiers for perks, no. I mean when will they ever learn is the question.

      @paulallen2680 3 месяца назад

      Exactly, innovate by adding mechanisms or more things on a map. Don’t change the foundation itself that people who played zombies enjoyed. Same argument for halo, why change the foundation when you could just add more sandbox mechanics like halo 2 did to 1 and halo 3 did to 2. Halo reach added sprint but it was a sandbox item, not an innate mechanic in the game that would radically change other parts of the game like halo 5 or 4. Halo infinite has sprint but it practically looses its function as it barely allows you to move faster than normal speed.

    4) No round based maps.
    5) bad wonder weapons.
    6) Score streaks in zombies.
    6) Spawning in with any weapon or equipment you want. (Was more fun and challenging to spawn in with shitty pistol that you could upgrade to something fun.
    7) Armor system in zombies.
    8) Map tells you what to do (Steps, EE steps, Objectives).
    9) Open world zombies.
    10) Infinite self revived (if found or purchased)
    11) Buyable ammo for every weapon (Makes it too easy)
    12) Zombies dropping equipment & Ammo.
    13) Bad easter egg’s

Also it was actually helpful for every bullet to count as points. Oh,u have 5 bullets left but ur 30 points away from pack a punch well no problem just hit those five shots on one or even a group of zombies and boom. U have enough points wether u killed them or not. Apparently they took this feature out bc one of the devs or owners children's was essentially gettin bullied bc he wasn't getting enough points to help progress the match. Sad.

  • @I--benn--I
    @I--benn--I 6 месяцев назад +5

    I feel like the biggest reason it looks so similar to MP and Warzone is so that new players have an easier time understanding it and i can totally get the thought process for it because it's likely for accessibility (even then there's no reason they can't Zombiefy the HUD like how the Active Duty Slots on MWIII have a Zombie like look)
    The issue is that and this might be a hot take but i find that kinda offensive tbh and before you ask "how could it be offensive?" let me explain.
    If the reason really is to make it easier for MP or Warzone Guys to play Zombies and to make it accessible then that means they think the average CoD player is too dumb to understand a Zombies HUD so they have to make it like something they've already played.
    I find it odd that they think a new player to Zombies likely won't understand what's on their screen if they're from MP or Warzone.
    (I see accessibility got brought up later in the vid, i typed this like halfway through. lmfao)
    Also CoD really needs the option Fortnite has which is being able to turn off nearly everything on the HUD and being able to resize the hud.
    Alot of the HUD issues would be gone if you could just make it like 30% smaller or whatever you want.
