Don’t play with my heartstrings like this. lol. A new DMZ would be the best thing to happen for cods future. I’m excited for BO6, but I can’t help but wonder, with older school weapon build system and backpack removal for BR, they are steps backward, what are the NEW features that will take steps forward? DMZ would fill that space nicely… I have a lot of great ideas for what they could do in a new version of it. I hope they do too.
They are moving warzone to it's own exe, and dmz will also be on its own standalone build/exe within the hub. This will allow backpacks and such. They are also looking at actual stashes to allow you to keep extra vests, attachments, etc. and are also looking to overhaul the insured slots, while adding a market/auction house. I suggested making the insured slots have the original 4/6/12 hour timers, and only give out base guns, no attachments. When you pull a gun the slot goes on cool down immediately. This would allow for selling guns, or building them, with everyone being able to get a max of 9 free guns a day, and having to purchase from the market for anything else, unless found in world. They are also looking at making attachments lootable, and sellable. Allowing for blueprints to bed added at weapon stations, and in the lobby as attachments are applied to guns. They are also looking at doing a similar system to how delta force extraction does guns. We will see, I'm just hype to see DMZ becoming the flagship of the COD umbrella.
@@knolsey here’s my ideas for a new dmz. Factions reputation making bots less(or more) hostile, w dif factions of bots in the field fighting in active combat zones. More bartering for equipment, have to barter for insured weapon build, etc Dog tags, you need your teammates dog tag to revive them at a barracks or hospital. If an enemy takes the tag you have to get it back in order to revive players. Extracting enemy tags gives special rewards. A barracks in the field for loot storage/bartering. Seasonal weapon case rewards. More interactive missions that have cut scenes or character interactions and results upon completion. In game events. Civilians protect or escort missions etc And more. But it sounds like these are all things they are actually working on anyway. A new era of DMZ would be incredible, I’m looking forward to it.
@@jonc1920 they are taking ques from tarkov, while still staying in the more casual space, i am TRYING my damndest to give feedback, as someone who streamed over 4,000 hours, and played over 5,000 hours of dmz during mw2's year. it's pretty much all i did lol.
@@jonc1920 from my chats with the guys i know at IW... -factions were thought about but decided against, as they are trying to tell a long term story via the missions, though they do want to incorporate some form of safe area, potentially two factions you can choose to be a part of that have different safe areas, creating base raiding events. no place to store loot in game, as it is an extraction shooter, though they have thought about loot exfils kind of like the plunder helicopter that drops the cash bag (like a division dark zone loot extract.) -crafting, looting attachments (even off of guns from dead players), focus on barter and a player market. -wipe based case rewards, more missions, better missions, better rewards. -civilians are a no go outside of more dynamic hostage contracts, as they don't want to turn the game into a war crime simulator, any more than it already is lol. -they want to do more limited time events, with bosses, short term faction wars, etc. they just need to have the mode fully fleshed out first. they're doing great work, i just hope they win out over activision and get to make DMZ true to their vision. additional: they want to bring Raids back with MW4, as well as a much more in depth mini co-op campaign alongside them for co-op this go around. they are also testing a few new 6v6 single life modes, like snd & hostage rescue, including a ground war version of SnD.
couldn't agree more. when they said back in the 2021 reveal that it was originally planned for verdansk i was blown away at the potential, now it may actually come to fruition, and i'm here for it baby. lol
Couldn't agree more, though I do hope br is able to survive. Dropping nukes is a good time lol. 95% dmz, 5% br for me is the perfect time balance lol. Though I do have to admit, I'm a whore for SnD.
DMZ is the only game that saw me actually paying out good money so its a format that works as I have never in 40 years paid money to play a game for skins and load outs. Still playing DMZ with friends and again is the best game mode I have played.
I grinded DMZ when it first came out, kinda thought it died when mw3 came out.. grinded mw3 and warzone to max every season, that shit was dry after 1 match every time, i went back to dmz about a week ago, most people you play with you will run into in another server again but i find DMZ matches faster than Warzone matches.. DMZ still has that fresh feel every match because every match really is different to the last, so much to do for a mode that was abandoned. Lots of good and shitty people still jamming, wouldnt have it any other way if every match was easy it wouldnt be the same cop a loss and hustle some gear back, loved it then love it still.
yeah man, i have been running into phixate once or twice a week since the damn game came out lmao. there are so many people playing the game, but sbmm does what it do lol.
If DMZ comes back it’s over for me. That’s the best thing COD has ever created. I wasn’t even that good in it but going in solo trying to regain was the best. I hope you’re right. The devs probably noticed all the hype from Delta Force and realized they have to do something about it.
the IW team has believed in dmz since 2018 when they first started toying with the idea, it was Raven that stood in the way of it continuing, alongside activision wanting an open world zombies mode to placate the zombies community until bo6. thankfully we're coming full circle, and extraction shooters are still the hottest thing in fps, with the proverbial gold rush on to make the "warzone" of extraction shooters. funny part is IW already has it, they just need to refine it, and get activision off their jock lol.
@@marshallstrong7854 going off of the info I get from my inside source at IW. I am super excited for a DMZ return, but there is also a cynic in me that is scared Activision will be Activision lol.
i'd be fine with the omnimovement if it was at the mw2 speed. that honestly would be pretty rad. with the speeds the way they are it's over the top hard to hit a snipe, as everyone is running 40 mph, and the guns have piss poor velocity. of the four big studios that work on cod (Infinity Ward, Treyarch, Raven, & Sledgehammer) only Infinity Ward is capable of making a quality product. that is the biggest problem. cheers.
you and me both mate, i'm honestly thinking about going back to streaming it a bit. i was blown away by the terrible decisions being made at activision, but it seems once again; IW knows better for their game than anyone else. beingthe original creators of COD, WZ, and now DMZ. it's so good to see the good guys win.
@@Rock11td there's nothing even close to like it, IW truly created a new style of FPS game, sure it's an extraction shooter, but it's so, so much different than any other. join the discord if you're ever looking to play. ;) it's in the description.
it's not, why do you think they have cut so many modes from warzone over the past two seasons. there are only 4 modes available, 2 resurgence, 2 br. it's down bad. streamers who play both average 400% the audience while playing dmz vs warzone as well, you can find anecdotal evidence if you look hard enough, i was just lucky enough to get in touch with a dev.
@@knolsey its amazing a game mode they all but tried to kill, that gets no updates and has known bugs/exploits unfixed as a result, is doing better. dmz is what brought me back to COD i was so over warzone and pvp with no goals other than 'kill, die rinse and repeat'.
DMZ wasnt a bad mode i hope IW can find a way to add a more solo friendly version thats more PVE focused than PVP but also find a way to get players who want to PVP get their fix
the pvp wasn't too bad when the game was getting regular new content, however it is absolutely out of control now. they are looking to add a bit more gear fear to make people think twice about pvp engagements, without making it brutal to die. DMZ is already amazing, and from what i've heard, they're making some incredible decisions over at IW. we just have to hope activision lets them cook.
@@knolsey yeah kind of like GTA's passive mode maybe there could be penalties like not being able to plead for help and prices in item shops being doubled
nope, i'm on a 20 year old audio interface, as i'm slowly building up my equipment. i'm only buying top end equipment, so i'm not wasting a few grand on the way up. i've so far made about 5k from youtube, and need about 2500 more to finish of getting to the levels of the guys with hundreds of thousands of subs. it's a hard game to get in to, and i'm not in a position to just toss ten grand on the table for something that may not repay itself ya know? hoping to be squared away by early next year.
@@knolseyThat's cool! the reason I ask is because there are condenser mics you can get between $20 - $50 that really elevate your audio quality and giving your voice full range..... Coming from sound engineering background it always irks me listening to people like Nick Mercs who insists on using a headset mic. Good luck and all the best getting geared up!
@@manners403 yeah mate, i'm close to getting a decent interface. i'm on a Shure SM57 from my band days. my biggest problem is my voice is full of mids, so i have to EQ in highs to balance out. i tried a double compress, i've tried slapback, nothing works. so i'm recording from about 3 feet away, behind a pop filter, and then raising the channel within davinci, applying a de-esser, and light compression. always down to hear from a professional. all my sound work was in the live scene, only recorded my own bands (they're the outro music in the videos.)
@@knolsey Yeah the SM57 is more mid range focused, great fro female singers and tom drums but not great for every application or full range voice, recording and broadcasting unless you have a good interface, also needs less compression since it tends to be mildly compressed as it is. I was surprised when helping my teen son set up for TH-cam that I found a USB condenser mic for $30 that has built in noise reduction with dynamic range and clarity which sounds high end. My recommendation with SM57 being a cardioid mic and not a condenser is try have mic closer to you about 8-10" with pop guard and set the gain so that you're not clipping, compress very lightly with low ratio to allow your voice to stay natural and also allow for full range of the SM57 to come through in the recording. Try to avoid over processing digitally in software as it may not produce good results aim for light compression and limit of clipping which should be minimal for your purpose. The SM57 doesn't require much EQ on Mids, you should try and embrace its sound profile, reduce the 2K and 4k levels by 2 -3 db and then balance high and low ends without pushing too aggressively on either end. This should hopefully give you more natural result. Try to compare your audio to others audio clips to get some reference if you feel you're getting lost in and not being satisfied with results. Cheers... Can't wait for DMZ-2
@@manners403 thanks for the advice man, i'll give all of this a try on the next video i record. (already have one set for 6pm USeast today.) if you wanna see my struggle, go skim my older videos and see how far my audio quality has came, all on the same mic lol.
IW invented COD, IW invented the DMZ game mode, and have been quoted numerous times regarding their passion for game mode. I been playing COD for 20 years, never once bought a bundle, or played any warzone until DMZ became a game mode. DMZ opened me up to more of COD and to more of me spending money on COD. I knew that if DMZ hooked me, it had to be something special. Warzone is boring, repetitive, predictable and feels the same as multiplayer. You load in try to get the most kills and try to win, the results are never personal. With DMZ, it's totally personal, everything you do is based on your choices, there are no predictable games in DMZ, it's random, and more like real life than any other video games I have ever played. If you play DMZ and think you know it all, you will be sadly mistaken when you get taken out in the most random way imaginable. I seriously demo scenarios for DMZ games, I have notes about situations that have gotten me in trouble in the past, the game mode Amazing. But I guess if you lack creativity, imagination, and curiosity, I can see how the mode may not be for you
you and me both, and infinity ward always keeps it as realistic as they can, the only ones that werent super realistic were The Boys, and Spawn. even the Footy skins from the world cup had tactical gear. niki was a meme though for sure lol
Its so good to see someone finally speaking up about what Call of Duty should be, i hated what mwIII did to warzone. I miss Wz 2.0, more need to speak up@@knolsey
I still play DMZ only. I even started a new account just to go through the missions over again. I have even been debating getting a bundle or two for a second time. 😂
If they did go to dmz as their main mode the only reason they would want to push that has nothing to do with player numbers the reason would be money made in pay to win bundles . When it comes to the falling player numbers in wz the main factors for that would be servers that are way below industry standard , an anti cheat that cant detect the simplest cheats and eomm
yet dmz has the same anticheat, and is on the same servers. weird that there are so many players playing dmz, and no one playing warzone. i do agree with you though, the servers are dogwater, and a real anticheat is needed. oh, and of course bundle sales are a key metric, it's why they quickly quit making mwz bundles this year.
DMZ is so fricking good, even better now that ppl have been FLOCKING to it and its not at alla pvp only experience at least on my eu servers with the "trust factor" .like degrees me and my buddies have. people are actusally TALKING FIRST to eac other
Great Vid! I think most have quit due to the level of cheating. Anti cheat so bad that it causes people to believe so many are cheating, even if they're not. Trust has gone!
DMZ always been better then Warzone to me.. I feel like it's more tactical and spontaneous.. nothin like peak DMZ vibes and I been on Cod games since 2003
@@knolsey MW3 guns are bad and don't belong to the modern setting. BO6 guns are decent but they also don't belong to the setting and work completely differently. Quality over quantity
@@the_true_pepol the only two that doesn't belong in the modern setting is the stg44, and k98k. I own almost as many of the firearms from the mw3 list as the mw2 list. Matter of fact, my wife's bugout is a SIG cross (spx), and an IWI micro Uzi in .40 cal. I've got a CZ bren DMR, which is either the mtz 762, or subverter. I also conceal carry an fn five seven, which is going into bo6 lol. They have missed quite a few great sidearms, and even a few incredible lmgs like the OD REAPR. Definitely stayed modern for the most part though. The stg44 and kar98k were just simple reused assets because SHG suck at developing games, also the cod kids demanded the kar back, even though buffing the spx, spr, MCPR, and imperium would have just been better. I've also shot the MRAD, as well as the irl imperium (can't think of name ATM.) the MRAD was incredible, but the real imperium was the most jank long gun I have got my hands on outside of the RM277 (my father in law was on the board for the ngsw program.) There is absolutely a way to balance all guns into dmz, by adapting the balancing of dmz to those guns, and allowing all attachments on all guns (under barrels, muzzles, lasers, etc.) within current parameters. Shoot, my girlfriend actually has my DSA FAL on her bugout kit for the past year or so, as it's setup with a 4x monocle, handstop, flashlight, and bipod. I've got a video coming up on the entire list of bo6 weapons, and a lot of them are what would have been brand new in the early 90s. I am certainly most hype for the vintorez, as I'm fortunate to have one in my collection and it is one of my favorite guns. I'm not even an AK guy, though I do have a pp19, akm, and 102.
@@knolsey I meant the guns like AMR-9, SVA-545, Longbow, both of the Holgers, BAL-27, MORS, BP-50, TAQ Evolvere, Pulemyot-762, Riveter, Soulrender and a frickin spear. They're either not accurate/ functional/ assembled from different weapons/ don't belong to the setting, for the most part they're all of the above. And don't forget AMPs and goofy attachments which don't make any sense even remotely. Plus MWIII gunplay sucks as a whole, the guns are just laser beams without any punch. I don't own any guns currently except for a double barrel shotgun (toz), but while serving in the army I've shot a lot of them and I know a lot about them, too Edit: and MWIII guns are ugly, just like the whole game, I regret buying it
@@the_true_pepol i feel you on the gunplay being bad, they definitely need to rework it to take skill to use the weapons for sure. PKM is still in heavy use around the world Taq Evolvere is just a belt fed SCAR, it's fine G36 is still used by a few NATO nations Longbow is a rad weapon all around SVA is just an AN94 prototype FN200, including AMP are fine, both are real, and for sale by FN today. melee weapons are always a gimmick mors/bal i agree Riveter & AMR9 should be Conversion kits conversion kits shouldnt be all 3d printed. i am okay with the AMPs, as most aren't really worth using, though IW wouldn't let the BFB, quartermaster, etc. stand. one thing you've always gotta take in to account is the care and love IW put into their games, and understand that they would absolutely fix the shortcomings of SHG, and Treyarch. Appreciate the service. i went LEO, before starting my own company running wreckers for my local PD, we now have 27 departments sole contracts. it's given me a chance to do some incredible things i never thought my life would bring. i'm thinking about starting a channel where i just tell stories, and cover dumb internet stuff. kind of like Penguinz0, or Oompaville.
they aren't too concerned about the health of those things, as they can always bounce back next year if a game flops. it's getting that mainline f2p mode to suck in new players now that WZ in waning so hard.

And that it is causing some revolution in COD that devs are ready to end Warzone and embrace DMZ? LMAO. My ribs hurt.
not only did he make that video after i made this, he also explained that they are compartmentalizing warzone into it's own offshoot build, so it really has nothing to do with this, other than the fact that warzone is dying.
I don't understand how people play dmz it's a practice game with bots it's basically plunder init I don't get it what can good about extracting with money an that 😒
you simply don't understand extraction shooters, if anything BR is the practice mode. DMZ has missions, a base to build, more engaged pvp, and is just better all around. it's not tiktok brainrot tho, so i get it.
Its more like playing campaign but with few hundreds hours of gameplay and without cutscenes, and its free. There is a lot of PVP but its not only way you can play it. Not every player who plays shooters is a sweat. sometimes people like play slower with more tactics. Sometimes even surviving raid can give you more adrenaline than having a 20 kill game in BR. And without updates there are 0% chances that Activision will break something in the game :D If someone don't like it - dont't have to play. I think hate from BR fans pushed AV to abandon the game and still more people play it, its ridiculus :D
People are playing dmz because it is easier to kill somebody than in Battle Royale. it is not because of missions because 99.9% of the people not doing missions and it is not because of exfill because 99.9% of the people are using Koschei glich. Everything else is a lie from people not capable to confirm themselfs in Ranked...
DMZ is terrible. I never physically met anyone who played it, and most of my neighborhood runs COD. I pray COD doesn't do DMZ. All people want is Verdansk with the IW 8.0 engine with an actual working anticheat (and something to nerf short range crazy movement "demons"). It's not that difficult.

that's the best part of a transition to DMZ, it takes a lot less work than a BR like Warzone to maintain, allowing them to work on MP, co op, zombies, and even play with new modes. i think resurgence will end up sticking, but traditional BR, prob only limited time events for a couple of weeks a season. i know the guys who are still playing wz will riot if bots are put into the mode in place of players, yet there arent enough players, so just shut it down lol.
They need to copy fortnite. Keep a map open 24/7 alter it. Balance it. But leave it a stand alone game. Stop trying to use it to bait ppl to purchase the multiplayer

We are currently on the IW 9.0 engine. Warzone 1 was on the IW 8.0 engine. What are you talking about there? And Warzone has lost huge # of players since WZ 2.0 because of WZ 2.0 horrible clunky movement and atrocious RNG gun recoil (essentially IW 9.0) and huge amount of hard and soft cheaters. Not to mention the in game EOMM manipulation that was strengthened since WZ 2.0. Warzone didn't lose players because the world wanted DMZ. Fortnite is dominant because they're a BR, not a DMZ.

Don’t play with my heartstrings like this. lol. A new DMZ would be the best thing to happen for cods future. I’m excited for BO6, but I can’t help but wonder, with older school weapon build system and backpack removal for BR, they are steps backward, what are the NEW features that will take steps forward? DMZ would fill that space nicely… I have a lot of great ideas for what they could do in a new version of it. I hope they do too.
They are moving warzone to it's own exe, and dmz will also be on its own standalone build/exe within the hub. This will allow backpacks and such. They are also looking at actual stashes to allow you to keep extra vests, attachments, etc. and are also looking to overhaul the insured slots, while adding a market/auction house.
I suggested making the insured slots have the original 4/6/12 hour timers, and only give out base guns, no attachments. When you pull a gun the slot goes on cool down immediately. This would allow for selling guns, or building them, with everyone being able to get a max of 9 free guns a day, and having to purchase from the market for anything else, unless found in world.
They are also looking at making attachments lootable, and sellable. Allowing for blueprints to bed added at weapon stations, and in the lobby as attachments are applied to guns.
They are also looking at doing a similar system to how delta force extraction does guns. We will see, I'm just hype to see DMZ becoming the flagship of the COD umbrella.
@@knolsey here’s my ideas for a new dmz.
Factions reputation making bots less(or more) hostile, w dif factions of bots in the field fighting in active combat zones.
More bartering for equipment, have to barter for insured weapon build, etc
Dog tags, you need your teammates dog tag to revive them at a barracks or hospital. If an enemy takes the tag you have to get it back in order to revive players. Extracting enemy tags gives special rewards. A barracks in the field for loot storage/bartering.
Seasonal weapon case rewards. More interactive missions that have cut scenes or character interactions and results upon completion.
In game events. Civilians protect or escort missions etc
And more. But it sounds like these are all things they are actually working on anyway. A new era of DMZ would be incredible, I’m looking forward to it.

-factions were thought about but decided against, as they are trying to tell a long term story via the missions, though they do want to incorporate some form of safe area, potentially two factions you can choose to be a part of that have different safe areas, creating base raiding events. no place to store loot in game, as it is an extraction shooter, though they have thought about loot exfils kind of like the plunder helicopter that drops the cash bag (like a division dark zone loot extract.)
-crafting, looting attachments (even off of guns from dead players), focus on barter and a player market.
-wipe based case rewards, more missions, better missions, better rewards.
-civilians are a no go outside of more dynamic hostage contracts, as they don't want to turn the game into a war crime simulator, any more than it already is lol.
-they want to do more limited time events, with bosses, short term faction wars, etc. they just need to have the mode fully fleshed out first.
they're doing great work, i just hope they win out over activision and get to make DMZ true to their vision.
additional: they want to bring Raids back with MW4, as well as a much more in depth mini co-op campaign alongside them for co-op this go around. they are also testing a few new 6v6 single life modes, like snd & hostage rescue, including a ground war version of SnD.

couldn't agree more. when they said back in the 2021 reveal that it was originally planned for verdansk i was blown away at the potential, now it may actually come to fruition, and i'm here for it baby. lol
@@knolsey Verdansk always felt more DMZ like than a Battke Royale map
@@ITZCHELSEA2244 Verdansk, and Urzikstan for that matter would make amazing DMZ maps, but especially Verdansk.
@@knolsey Urzikstn already kind of is if you count MWZ there were some innovations in MWZ I hope get carried forward to DMZ 2.0 like schematics
Verdansk is for campers
Only DMZ.
It’s a great dame mode and Activision made a terrible mistake canning it. Especially after taking our money with DMZ bundles
Couldn't agree more, though I do hope br is able to survive. Dropping nukes is a good time lol. 95% dmz, 5% br for me is the perfect time balance lol. Though I do have to admit, I'm a whore for SnD.
Love DMZ! Worst thing was them not including it in MW3, there are some many DMZ guys still playing and loving it!
DMZ is the only game that saw me actually paying out good money so its a format that works as I have never in 40 years paid money to play a game for skins and load outs. Still playing DMZ with friends and again is the best game mode I have played.
I grinded DMZ when it first came out, kinda thought it died when mw3 came out.. grinded mw3 and warzone to max every season, that shit was dry after 1 match every time, i went back to dmz about a week ago, most people you play with you will run into in another server again but i find DMZ matches faster than Warzone matches.. DMZ still has that fresh feel every match because every match really is different to the last, so much to do for a mode that was abandoned. Lots of good and shitty people still jamming, wouldnt have it any other way if every match was easy it wouldnt be the same cop a loss and hustle some gear back, loved it then love it still.
yeah man, i have been running into phixate once or twice a week since the damn game came out lmao. there are so many people playing the game, but sbmm does what it do lol.
If DMZ comes back it’s over for me. That’s the best thing COD has ever created. I wasn’t even that good in it but going in solo trying to regain was the best. I hope you’re right. The devs probably noticed all the hype from Delta Force and realized they have to do something about it.
the IW team has believed in dmz since 2018 when they first started toying with the idea, it was Raven that stood in the way of it continuing, alongside activision wanting an open world zombies mode to placate the zombies community until bo6. thankfully we're coming full circle, and extraction shooters are still the hottest thing in fps, with the proverbial gold rush on to make the "warzone" of extraction shooters. funny part is IW already has it, they just need to refine it, and get activision off their jock lol.
I sure hope ur right man we need more DMZ
@@marshallstrong7854 going off of the info I get from my inside source at IW. I am super excited for a DMZ return, but there is also a cynic in me that is scared Activision will be Activision lol.
I’ll believe it when I see it…
won't have to wait too long it seems.
Yay to no omnimovement. I’m too old for that shit.
i'd be fine with the omnimovement if it was at the mw2 speed. that honestly would be pretty rad. with the speeds the way they are it's over the top hard to hit a snipe, as everyone is running 40 mph, and the guns have piss poor velocity. of the four big studios that work on cod (Infinity Ward, Treyarch, Raven, & Sledgehammer) only Infinity Ward is capable of making a quality product. that is the biggest problem. cheers.
I still play DMZ several times a week. Its still great.
you and me both mate, i'm honestly thinking about going back to streaming it a bit. i was blown away by the terrible decisions being made at activision, but it seems once again; IW knows better for their game than anyone else. beingthe original creators of COD, WZ, and now DMZ. it's so good to see the good guys win.
I stopped playing DMZ for 6 months then started playing again, it just feels great to be back in Al Mazrah! No thing beats this mode.
@@Rock11td there's nothing even close to like it, IW truly created a new style of FPS game, sure it's an extraction shooter, but it's so, so much different than any other. join the discord if you're ever looking to play. ;) it's in the description.
Agreed 1000%.. it's the best mode ever in Cod hands down
No way. Not a chance. More people playing dmz than BR and Resurgence? No. I love dmz. But this is crazy talk.
it's not, why do you think they have cut so many modes from warzone over the past two seasons. there are only 4 modes available, 2 resurgence, 2 br. it's down bad. streamers who play both average 400% the audience while playing dmz vs warzone as well, you can find anecdotal evidence if you look hard enough, i was just lucky enough to get in touch with a dev.
@@knolsey its amazing a game mode they all but tried to kill, that gets no updates and has known bugs/exploits unfixed as a result, is doing better. dmz is what brought me back to COD i was so over warzone and pvp with no goals other than 'kill, die rinse and repeat'.
DMZ wasnt a bad mode i hope IW can find a way to add a more solo friendly version thats more PVE focused than PVP but also find a way to get players who want to PVP get their fix
the pvp wasn't too bad when the game was getting regular new content, however it is absolutely out of control now. they are looking to add a bit more gear fear to make people think twice about pvp engagements, without making it brutal to die. DMZ is already amazing, and from what i've heard, they're making some incredible decisions over at IW. we just have to hope activision lets them cook.
@@knolsey I really hope they have a MWZ type sub mode that's just PVE maybe have it be a spec ops/DMZ hybrid
@@ITZCHELSEA2244 just need the ability to turn pvp off for yourself, making you immune to other players, and vice versa lol.
@@knolsey yeah kind of like GTA's passive mode maybe there could be penalties like not being able to plead for help and prices in item shops being doubled
@@ITZCHELSEA2244 yep this is the kind of system i'd assume they would go with.
Are you using a headset microphone to record your audio?
nope, i'm on a 20 year old audio interface, as i'm slowly building up my equipment. i'm only buying top end equipment, so i'm not wasting a few grand on the way up. i've so far made about 5k from youtube, and need about 2500 more to finish of getting to the levels of the guys with hundreds of thousands of subs. it's a hard game to get in to, and i'm not in a position to just toss ten grand on the table for something that may not repay itself ya know? hoping to be squared away by early next year.
@@knolseyThat's cool! the reason I ask is because there are condenser mics you can get between $20 - $50 that really elevate your audio quality and giving your voice full range..... Coming from sound engineering background it always irks me listening to people like Nick Mercs who insists on using a headset mic. Good luck and all the best getting geared up!
@@manners403 yeah mate, i'm close to getting a decent interface. i'm on a Shure SM57 from my band days. my biggest problem is my voice is full of mids, so i have to EQ in highs to balance out. i tried a double compress, i've tried slapback, nothing works. so i'm recording from about 3 feet away, behind a pop filter, and then raising the channel within davinci, applying a de-esser, and light compression. always down to hear from a professional. all my sound work was in the live scene, only recorded my own bands (they're the outro music in the videos.)
@@knolsey Yeah the SM57 is more mid range focused, great fro female singers and tom drums but not great for every application or full range voice, recording and broadcasting unless you have a good interface, also needs less compression since it tends to be mildly compressed as it is. I was surprised when helping my teen son set up for TH-cam that I found a USB condenser mic for $30 that has built in noise reduction with dynamic range and clarity which sounds high end. My recommendation with SM57 being a cardioid mic and not a condenser is try have mic closer to you about 8-10" with pop guard and set the gain so that you're not clipping, compress very lightly with low ratio to allow your voice to stay natural and also allow for full range of the SM57 to come through in the recording. Try to avoid over processing digitally in software as it may not produce good results aim for light compression and limit of clipping which should be minimal for your purpose. The SM57 doesn't require much EQ on Mids, you should try and embrace its sound profile, reduce the 2K and 4k levels by 2 -3 db and then balance high and low ends without pushing too aggressively on either end. This should hopefully give you more natural result. Try to compare your audio to others audio clips to get some reference if you feel you're getting lost in and not being satisfied with results. Cheers... Can't wait for DMZ-2
@@manners403 thanks for the advice man, i'll give all of this a try on the next video i record. (already have one set for 6pm USeast today.) if you wanna see my struggle, go skim my older videos and see how far my audio quality has came, all on the same mic lol.
IW invented COD, IW invented the DMZ game mode, and have been quoted numerous times regarding their passion for game mode. I been playing COD for 20 years, never once bought a bundle, or played any warzone until DMZ became a game mode. DMZ opened me up to more of COD and to more of me spending money on COD. I knew that if DMZ hooked me, it had to be something special. Warzone is boring, repetitive, predictable and feels the same as multiplayer. You load in try to get the most kills and try to win, the results are never personal. With DMZ, it's totally personal, everything you do is based on your choices, there are no predictable games in DMZ, it's random, and more like real life than any other video games I have ever played. If you play DMZ and think you know it all, you will be sadly mistaken when you get taken out in the most random way imaginable. I seriously demo scenarios for DMZ games, I have notes about situations that have gotten me in trouble in the past, the game mode Amazing. But I guess if you lack creativity, imagination, and curiosity, I can see how the mode may not be for you
always go in with a plan, then audible 18 times to get to the end lol. you're absolutely right.
DMZ!!! Let’s gooooo!!!
Hopefully they release Las Almas!!!!
Urzikstan is just a teskinned las almas lol
@@knolsey that’s what I remember hearing
If they do another DMZ that will be awesome 👌
Not if it's at the expense of Warzone.
Love to see Mil Sim stylr cod to come back
you and me both, and infinity ward always keeps it as realistic as they can, the only ones that werent super realistic were The Boys, and Spawn. even the Footy skins from the world cup had tactical gear. niki was a meme though for sure lol
Its so good to see someone finally speaking up about what Call of Duty should be, i hated what mwIII did to warzone. I miss Wz 2.0, more need to speak up@@knolsey
DMZ NEVER DIE!!!
DMZ is king
I still play DMZ only. I even started a new account just to go through the missions over again. I have even been debating getting a bundle or two for a second time. 😂
i have four accounts at this point lmao.
If they did go to dmz as their main mode the only reason they would want to push that has nothing to do with player numbers the reason would be money made in pay to win bundles . When it comes to the falling player numbers in wz the main factors for that would be servers that are way below industry standard , an anti cheat that cant detect the simplest cheats and eomm
yet dmz has the same anticheat, and is on the same servers. weird that there are so many players playing dmz, and no one playing warzone. i do agree with you though, the servers are dogwater, and a real anticheat is needed.
oh, and of course bundle sales are a key metric, it's why they quickly quit making mwz bundles this year.
@@knolsey problem is activisions vision for cod is minimum effort for maximum profit
DMZ is so fricking good, even better now that ppl have been FLOCKING to it and its not at alla pvp only experience at least on my eu servers with the "trust factor" .like degrees me and my buddies have. people are actusally TALKING FIRST to eac other
The social aspect makes the game!
@@knolsey YES! And the bestr and saddest paert is that no other game, fps gamne has been nable to bring one to life like nin dmz
Great Vid! I think most have quit due to the level of cheating. Anti cheat so bad that it causes people to believe so many are cheating, even if they're not. Trust has gone!
That's a side effect of having no real anticheat lol. Thanks for the kind words, cheers.
DMZ always been better then Warzone to me.. I feel like it's more tactical and spontaneous.. nothin like peak DMZ vibes and I been on Cod games since 2003
absolutely. DMZ is peak cod, and the future of the game. so stoked that IW thinks so too.

I hope they'll refuse to bring into DMZ not only omnimovement, but MW3 and BO6 guns as well
disagree, you can never have too many guns in an extraction shooter. though i hope they make them work like the mw2 guns in gunsmith.
@@knolsey MW3 guns are bad and don't belong to the modern setting. BO6 guns are decent but they also don't belong to the setting and work completely differently.
Quality over quantity
@@the_true_pepol the only two that doesn't belong in the modern setting is the stg44, and k98k. I own almost as many of the firearms from the mw3 list as the mw2 list. Matter of fact, my wife's bugout is a SIG cross (spx), and an IWI micro Uzi in .40 cal. I've got a CZ bren DMR, which is either the mtz 762, or subverter. I also conceal carry an fn five seven, which is going into bo6 lol.
They have missed quite a few great sidearms, and even a few incredible lmgs like the OD REAPR. Definitely stayed modern for the most part though. The stg44 and kar98k were just simple reused assets because SHG suck at developing games, also the cod kids demanded the kar back, even though buffing the spx, spr, MCPR, and imperium would have just been better.
I've also shot the MRAD, as well as the irl imperium (can't think of name ATM.) the MRAD was incredible, but the real imperium was the most jank long gun I have got my hands on outside of the RM277 (my father in law was on the board for the ngsw program.)
There is absolutely a way to balance all guns into dmz, by adapting the balancing of dmz to those guns, and allowing all attachments on all guns (under barrels, muzzles, lasers, etc.) within current parameters. Shoot, my girlfriend actually has my DSA FAL on her bugout kit for the past year or so, as it's setup with a 4x monocle, handstop, flashlight, and bipod. I've got a video coming up on the entire list of bo6 weapons, and a lot of them are what would have been brand new in the early 90s. I am certainly most hype for the vintorez, as I'm fortunate to have one in my collection and it is one of my favorite guns. I'm not even an AK guy, though I do have a pp19, akm, and 102.
@@knolsey I meant the guns like AMR-9, SVA-545, Longbow, both of the Holgers, BAL-27, MORS, BP-50, TAQ Evolvere, Pulemyot-762, Riveter, Soulrender and a frickin spear.
They're either not accurate/ functional/ assembled from different weapons/ don't belong to the setting, for the most part they're all of the above. And don't forget AMPs and goofy attachments which don't make any sense even remotely.
Plus MWIII gunplay sucks as a whole, the guns are just laser beams without any punch.
I don't own any guns currently except for a double barrel shotgun (toz), but while serving in the army I've shot a lot of them and I know a lot about them, too
Edit: and MWIII guns are ugly, just like the whole game, I regret buying it
@@the_true_pepol i feel you on the gunplay being bad, they definitely need to rework it to take skill to use the weapons for sure.
PKM is still in heavy use around the world
Taq Evolvere is just a belt fed SCAR, it's fine
G36 is still used by a few NATO nations
Longbow is a rad weapon all around
SVA is just an AN94 prototype
FN200, including AMP are fine, both are real, and for sale by FN today.
melee weapons are always a gimmick
mors/bal i agree
Riveter & AMR9 should be Conversion kits
conversion kits shouldnt be all 3d printed.
i am okay with the AMPs, as most aren't really worth using, though IW wouldn't let the BFB, quartermaster, etc. stand.
one thing you've always gotta take in to account is the care and love IW put into their games, and understand that they would absolutely fix the shortcomings of SHG, and Treyarch.
Appreciate the service. i went LEO, before starting my own company running wreckers for my local PD, we now have 27 departments sole contracts. it's given me a chance to do some incredible things i never thought my life would bring. i'm thinking about starting a channel where i just tell stories, and cover dumb internet stuff. kind of like Penguinz0, or Oompaville.
Unfortunate, hope the Warzone bleed off won’t shrink the multiplayer/zombies populations
they aren't too concerned about the health of those things, as they can always bounce back next year if a game flops. it's getting that mainline f2p mode to suck in new players now that WZ in waning so hard.
DMZ all day
every damn time i am on urzikstan i just get mad it, and guns like the mtz762, basb, and uzi aren't in the dang game. dmz is the superior cod for sure.

I don't understand how people play dmz it's a practice game with bots it's basically plunder init I don't get it what can good about extracting with money an that 😒
you simply don't understand extraction shooters, if anything BR is the practice mode. DMZ has missions, a base to build, more engaged pvp, and is just better all around. it's not tiktok brainrot tho, so i get it.
Its more like playing campaign but with few hundreds hours of gameplay and without cutscenes, and its free. There is a lot of PVP but its not only way you can play it. Not every player who plays shooters is a sweat. sometimes people like play slower with more tactics. Sometimes even surviving raid can give you more adrenaline than having a 20 kill game in BR. And without updates there are 0% chances that Activision will break something in the game :D If someone don't like it - dont't have to play. I think hate from BR fans pushed AV to abandon the game and still more people play it, its ridiculus :D
People are playing dmz because it is easier to kill somebody than in Battle Royale. it is not because of missions because 99.9% of the people not doing missions and it is not because of exfill because 99.9% of the people are using Koschei glich. Everything else is a lie from people not capable to confirm themselfs in Ranked...
DMZ is terrible. I never physically met anyone who played it, and most of my neighborhood runs COD. I pray COD doesn't do DMZ. All people want is Verdansk with the IW 8.0 engine with an actual working anticheat (and something to nerf short range crazy movement "demons"). It's not that difficult.

that's the best part of a transition to DMZ, it takes a lot less work than a BR like Warzone to maintain, allowing them to work on MP, co op, zombies, and even play with new modes. i think resurgence will end up sticking, but traditional BR, prob only limited time events for a couple of weeks a season. i know the guys who are still playing wz will riot if bots are put into the mode in place of players, yet there arent enough players, so just shut it down lol.

We are currently on the IW 9.0 engine. Warzone 1 was on the IW 8.0 engine. What are you talking about there? And Warzone has lost huge # of players since WZ 2.0 because of WZ 2.0 horrible clunky movement and atrocious RNG gun recoil (essentially IW 9.0) and huge amount of hard and soft cheaters. Not to mention the in game EOMM manipulation that was strengthened since WZ 2.0. Warzone didn't lose players because the world wanted DMZ. Fortnite is dominant because they're a BR, not a DMZ.

my kd is at least twice yours, i have over a thousand wins in br, 500 in resurgence, and over 3000 hours in DMZ. so i guess, sure thing; bucko.
100% facts
DMZ is just the better game objectively speaking xD
@@ramyyoussef2760 yeah totally dude. That must be why they canned it after a year. Bad players like it cuz it’s easier. You guys literally throw a fit when anyone pvp’s in it when that’s the main point of an extraction shooter. The ai is just filler. DMZ is the most barebones sorry excuse of an extraction shooter
@@riisky2411 no need to be a hater bro. you are entitled to an opinion and so are we. I think DMZ is the best fps experience ever and many agree. why come here and argue if u think otherwise instead of just playing other stuff 😂
Warzone ruined COD MP! Screw BR/fortnite/DMZ bs!!
DMZ won't ruin MP, that's the icing on the cake. unlike a BR, it doesn't need to be catered to, as the engagements play similar to SND anyway. this is the beginning of COD returning to form, and i am absolutely hype to get an extraction shooter on top.
anything IW saying/doing is irrelevant. you are right about one thing they did try to kill something, That something being call of duty as a whole with the release of mw2 (2022).
Lol okay kid, weird that mw2 is the best selling cod of all time, and al mazrah had 5x the players we do right now, on the same week last year. Cope harder, I'm sorry you're bad at shooter games, try assassin's Creed.
@@knolseyLolol kids hurt, you calling me trash is absolutely hilarious cause your the one that’s gotta play against bots to feel good about himself 😂 maybe you ought to play assassins creed my guy
@@knolsey bestselling doesn’t mean good game
@@Lordoctane12 I don't think you understand how business works.
@@knolsey it was best selling because of how much they hyped it
