Birdman, as a retired Call Of Duty veteran myself, I applaud your commitment to the COD content. I started COD in 2006, yet recently retired when the atrocity that was Vanguard came out and pushed me away from this beloved franchise. On top of that, seeing how COD is now charging $70 for DLC multiplayer, mid campaign, and zombies no one asked for, it’s safe to say COD is in the past for me. Glad to see you can still enjoy it though.

I’d have to say my main problem with the new cod is that you can hear your teammates footsteps very loud and clear but enemy footsteps will be silent when they are sprinting directly behind you
Its Dead Silence. I think its a bit too op, you can literally not hear someone rushing up behind you through all the favela windows. Would be great if the perk makes you slower, as it is now, theres no reason to not instantly use it 24:7 when unlocked.
@@mohsaic3489 Theres a perk that said something about it makes ''combat noise'' louder so i think thats it??? Im not really sure, i just used the beta to throw smokes and oneshot people through it with a thermal sniper lol.
I‘d say the movement is the big thing why the maps play so different. Back then sprinting was a resource, now you can sprint 24/7 pretty much. Additionally the spawn is COMPLETELY different.
Back then there was marathon & lightweight pro. Along with ninja pro. Sprinting has always been apart of COD. Even weapon mobility when taken into account for person speed
I dont understand how something like spawns that always worked in old games gets progressively worse each year...These terrible spawns are actually gonna destroy respawn gamemodes just like in recent titles.
It's on purpose. The old spawning system was perfect in like OG mw3 for example. It's on purpose because they want bad players to get free kills. That's their entire motive with every decision.

As a old mw2 veteran i get a headache seeing this maps, especially favela. It breaks my heart seeing what they did to my baby, but im happy i got to live and see and feel the real OLD COD days. thank u god
the player base will just camp on all maps regardless of how the game is built so the maps only matter about which room the enemy team will hide in and what perks / equipment will let them stay in that room without dying the longest. The run and gun classes that people make vids are just telling the campers what classes to expect and not really doing anything for the run and gun types. Gun fights are a thing of the past most players want to just let a claymore or a Betty do the work for them and none of the classes that the TH-camrs or streamers make are ever made with that in mind.
Well so far, I’m a super heavy run and gun type of player no matter what weapon I’m using, sniper, smg, AR, and this year everyone loves to get into gunfights because it’s fun, it’s a breathe of fresh air, the movement feels good so it kinda influences players to move around and be tactical instead of sitting in one spot. The only issue would be regular game modes like TDM where players don’t have an objective so they sit on top of buildings in favela, but other than that objective game modes are a blast.
Are we playing the same game dude? All i see are people bunnyhop slide cancel spamming their way around the map with dead silence, i would actually LOVE to see people playing more defensive. I have not once encountered a player setting up mines in a room and i played the beta every day. All i'd seen were people crying about ''campers'' every round, even when someone was standing in a corner to simply reload. So im guessing you are like them.
TLDR: this feels like a copy and paste, and makes me miss the old days 😅😂 As someone who played day 1 2009 mw2 as a 10 yr old , this was a nice nostalgia moment for me. However, I feel like I’m playing a really good mod. First two hours was nice cycling through the maps looking to see if they got every little detail( they didn’t); feeling out the movement system and such. Then it sets in, where’s the iconic announcers, where is the music when the game starts, mid battle, and end. And then you look at the gun you’re shooting, this is not mw2, this a different game using the maps I loved as kid growing up. I don’t know what I was expecting. Didn’t plan on buying the game, and I’ll hold out to see what the other maps look like till the close the beta entirely. Will say the movement system isnt completely terrible with the maps imo
@@Sporkey4 100% agree, that is another aspect of the original mw2 that really made it special. I do like how there seems to be a ghillie suit perk identical to how putting on cold blooded pro would auto put it on
You know the OG mw3 was basically a re-skin of mw2 right😅One of the biggest criticisms back in the day was that it was MW2 DLC. History always repeats itself i guess 😂
Well honestly the nostalgia got the best of me on this one. The 150 health is a dead breaker for me as I always was a hardcore player . I was too very bored with the game after about 2 hours , I just don't think cod will ever be what is was . It's tike to move on .
@@jonathansloan3140yes 16 maps that def aren’t 14 years old from a previous game. It’s totally all new content instead of shit that could’ve been in an update 💀
Not even close. Looks like you haven't played them if you think they all play the same, because they don't. That's why there's a big debate on which COD is the best. They look the same on the surface, but end up playing very differently.
Crazy to think they are mugging people off to play completely old maps LOL! Could have added all these maps and 8 brand new ones. People who buy this are mental
From all of my watches of this game, it plays and sounds so much like vanguard, but with the skin of mw2. The clean realistic engine but with faster and more fun mechanics, I’m excited
@@divinity8773I haven’t played vanguard but from what I gathered at the very least is that people liked how Vanguard played in the gameplay itself, but the maps were shit, and putting a ww2 theme was really shit cuz of all the dumbass retarded monetization they did that ruined the theme
There's also a glitch with the guardian where once you get effected by it, you lose your HUD and can't tell who is the enemy and who is your team (until you die)
@@superimpala4791that’s not what he means. After you get out of the gaurdians blast area then your hud should come back. I had the same glitch happen to me which got me killed
@@jayr7890more of a side hustle at this point. A few years ago the old coot said TH-cam is not his main source of income anymore because of TH-cam getting too soft and corpo. He said he makes most his money off the stock market, and I imagine he's expanded his money making to other sources by now.
It's not even that Derail is bad it's just too big. It feels 3 times as big as a normal map. Ton of spawning and running and everything happens in the middle building so a lot of space gets wasted. But curious to see if hard point utilizes that a little bit like the back of Skid Row. Could actually be better than the OG which isn't saying much
I like the point about map utilization. I don't really like hardpoint, as I'm an S&D main, but I did play it in BO2. However, I can admit some of the bigger maps can benefit from more modern game modes. Hardpoint can put an objective in a previously low traffic section of the map and switch it up.
I feel like the maps won’t be as fun due to the movements. OG Mw2 movements were slower, still glad they’re adding them in! Rather have OG maps than the map reskinned.
I am just happy that I managed to experience the greatness of old cods. I really just want to understand why they decided to change the older games to what it is now. Bo2 to me was the greatest cod I played. I never played mw2 online so dont roast me. I think i missed out but at the same time, I wasnt around gaming around that time. I just want the orignal way how cod came out
Cod4 to Bo2 was the greatest stretch in a gaming franchise history imo. Absolute banger after banger. Plus Halo 3/reach and gears 3 were out too. Golden age of gaming
@@SteezyMDmultiplayer games had been refined but not overcomplicated yet back then. There’s just too much shit in multiplayer games nowadays that there’s no way to balance the game, and there’s always gonna be an objective Meta. I don’t know I miss the simpler progression without 1000 attachments, battle pass nonsense, etc
what are you even here for? Call of duty is known for having players who put in 1000s of hours. its really not crazy at all. this would be normal for a regular person whos not a youtuber. In his case hes reviewing the game, it wouldnt be a detailed video unless he played the game alot.
I’m not one to comment on videos but this video deserves it! He went into so much details and referred to so many call of duty’s over the years he knows his shit! Fair play nice video very well detailed!
Solid breakdown, I totally get your point on estate vs skidrow as far as maps go but oddly enough I enjoy estate and dont really like skidrow lol. It's probably just because I'm not great at the game but I feel like I can see easier in Estate and plan my attacks out but then in Skidrow I feel like I'm just staring at grey walls and getting picked off around corners lol. Almost definitely a skill issue but it was cool to see a different opinion.
I think it’s going to be great the nostalgia is real . The doors are a pain in the ass could do with clearer names about heads it’s tricky always shooting my team mates . I think they done good over all they done it justice I think
Honestly I feel like it didn't even really go out the window. By the looks of it they basically just re-released MW2 under the guise of it being a new game so that they wouldn't have to forgo the yearly cash grab they get for new title releases.
The problem with 150 base health is balancing issues. The reason OG Mw2 did so well is that every single weapon was strong and viable, only difference was basically recoil. That is how it should be. Do you want AR's to 4 shot you at medium range, then pick up a P90 and use 12 rounds at medium range? The differential between strong and weak weapons become much more apparent with higher health pool's. Of course, Sub machine guns should be close quarter guns, AR medium to long, and DMR/Sniper long to very long- but when you look at the maps, there isn't enough mixing between these ranges to justify the damage differentials. This is why you see people use the AK, SCAR, M4A1 most of the time, because they serve you best at any range.
I like that its closer to Cold War TTK. Cold War was my favorite game since BO2 and the one I played the best in, had like a 2.3 K/D in Cold War as a filthy casual
Damn ur good especially on PS5 If there’s an open beta for all without preorder, if it’s decent, then I hope there’s a sale by Christmas then maybe I might try it Honestly I wish I played back in the day
I think the spawn thing is a bug because there is quite a number of times where I've lit respawned meters away from mutliple enemies who have just respawned in and sometimes I havent even realised because EVERYONE LOOKS THE FKN SAME!! Surely they gonna fix both these things pretty quick Back during WW2 i remember the spawns being equally as dog shit and they fixed them pretty quickly. Its a shame the rest of ww2 wasn't fixed quicker because it was a very solid COD 6 months down the line.
@@Coffeendonuts I disagree personally. It took way too long for fixes to be put in place and the maps were awful. It was decent once it got fixed but most people had abandoned the game by that point. Id rate BO3 and BO4 higher and put ww2 on par with MW2019 from the last ten years.
Man MW2 is a huuuge slice of nostalgia for me personally. Looking back through all the modern call of dutys the game transformed completely to the point where I no longer play. I saw the lineup of maps and instantly knew this was MW2. I preordered this just to play the beta and popped 50-60 kills most games after not playing for 10+ years. I am looking forward to jumping straight into what i think is going to be the next best call of duty in the modern age.
Some tweaks are needed, I think if they adjust the movement A BIT MORE, fix the visibility and a few other things, it'll be a freaking dope game. I've had A TON of fun on my PS5, and am looking forward to the PC beta. Also the devs making this have made it clear they want to listen to feedback and have a reputation for doing it. So if that is the case, I am over all really excited.
@Riorozen You get 16 different maps and the current MW2 maps aren't there. With new movement and speed. its not an update its completely different, its pretty oblivious to say this could be an update. When theres a new call of duty theres only ever minor tweaks to the formula. dont fix whats not broken, MW2 was the best selling cod ever, they fixed a few issues but i could see why the core mechanics are the same mostly
@@Riorozen theres never been a call of duty update that gets rid of every map and gives you 16 different ones. wtf thatd be like updating it to be a completely different game come on now.
I like the movement. footsteps are confusing. Sometimes, i can't tell if it's the enemy or a teammate. The kill sound effects are boring. Mw2 did it better; especially the headshots. The uav duration is too short. Aim assist was only strong at long range. Counter uav's last too long. Visibility is kinda dookie. Blue dots don't show sometimes. Spawns were only bad for me on skid row. I earned xp a little too fast as i got to lvl 20 in barely 5 hours, and the servers are unstable even for a beta...
*THIS!* The footsteps for enemies/teamates are exactly the same. Its actually amazing how nobody has mentioned this because its constantly disorientating.
I agree with the spawns, I've noticed the exact "revenge spawn" and have gotten many kills from it. But I've also had some moments where I've spawned legit right next to an enemy
Use to watch this dude play bo3 and call mfs “Eugene” in 5th grade, I just started my freshman year of college. Keep doing you man, glad to see you never switched up
When you mentioned the gameplay being dark and hard to see, I immediately thought of Bane: "Oh, you think darkness is your ally. But you merely adopted the dark; I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but BLINDING!"
I think I am going to start skipping COD again. I am one of the players that started during COD 4 MW (2007). MW 2 (2009) was amazing. Unfortunately, the series was terrible for almost a decade after that. I will not be playing this installment.
I just bought this game, and seeing that TTK broke my heart, BO4 TTK made me quit until MW2019 because of how long it was, MW22 fixed this almost bringing it back to the OG MW2 TTK and didn't feel so sweaty like MW2019, now I feel like we're going back to sweaty matches and slide cancelling and this is very unfortunate, but at least we get our old maps back I guess
I always thought it seemed odd when they released the mw2 remake without mp. Im convinced they made it, decided not to release it so not to split the playerbase that year, and then they held onto it and tweaked it and its now mw3 2023. It plays like an mw2 remake.
List of What I Deem Necessary Features For a Good Game. A) remove unnecessary movement (sliding and tac sprint. It makes the game require “more skill” and no one wants to sweat, they just want a fun time.) B) remove attachments that provide any sort of damage increase. (These make it so higher level players will quickly look for a way to get into lower level lobbies. They also provide an unfair advantage to people who don’t have that attachment.) C) make certain spawn killing is impossible. Whether it be relocating where they spawn mid game or having spawn protection. (No one likes to die before they even get the chance to move/play.) D) design new maps (I know impossible right?) E) add DLCS for maps in zombies and multiplayer. By doing so you will make passive income from two sources. People are buying the game and buying more fun content. (Worked for every cod before bo4 should work even better since the player base should only rise if done right. At any point if a player base starts to die out it's time to come up with a new game idea.) F) Remove any paid for bundles (Money hungry feature that pushes away most casual players.) G) make any cosmetic locked behind a difficult or fun challenge to add content. (In doing so players will be encouraged to play the game more than if there was only the same thing as every other game.) H) add fun little easter eggs around maps. (Self explanatory but it's just a nice little touch for people who get nostalgia highs.) I) Keep guns/weapons fun NOT realistic Snipers one shot above waist. Shotguns one shot at close range but are near useless at range. ARs depending on mag size have more or less dmg/fire rate and never kill in less than 5 bullets. SMGs are the same as ARs but deal more damage close range and less at distance, for example they 4 shot close range but 7 shot at distance. LMGs are the same as ARs but will take additional bullets to kill in general due to the excessive magazine. Pistol will be identical to SMGs but you move a little faster and can switch quicker. J) Take the necessary time to get a good base before launching. (People will always wait for a good game, but will quickly discard a poorly launched game.) Finally, don't ignore feedback like it’s going to kill you to look at other people’s opinions.
I think what ties so much nostalgia for these maps for me is this is when drake dropped decent music this was before take care, remember playing on these maps and always listening to drake and lil Wayne 💯 Gone for surgery but now I’m back again World Series attitude I forget the song
It took them to doing another MW3, and i still dont know why they named it that, to just add back MW2 maps that cpuldve just been added to MW 2019 or the fake MW2
So like legitimately I don't remember playing mw2 2009 multiplayer myself but a deep core memory was unlocked seeing this gameplay with the maps so you right on the nostalgia factor.

Go to 17:42-17:45, that shit had me 😂
If you've played any of the last 5 cods you've played MW3 lol
Not even close. Looks like you haven't played them if you think they all play the same, because they don't. That's why there's a big debate on which COD is the best. They look the same on the surface, but end up playing very differently.
@smiles187 but this one plays like the past 2 ?.

That was a dive at that. Man could’ve died lmao
Crazy to think they are mugging people off to play completely old maps LOL! Could have added all these maps and 8 brand new ones. People who buy this are mental
From all of my watches of this game, it plays and sounds so much like vanguard, but with the skin of mw2. The clean realistic engine but with faster and more fun mechanics, I’m excited
Weapon balance is going to be a nightmare. Ump is the only viable gun
So from this logic that MW3=Vanguard+MW2.
Vanguard=Trash game
MW2=Trash game
What does that make MW3? 🤔
@@divinity8773 Ultra trash.
@@divinity8773I haven’t played vanguard but from what I gathered at the very least is that people liked how Vanguard played in the gameplay itself, but the maps were shit, and putting a ww2 theme was really shit cuz of all the dumbass retarded monetization they did that ruined the theme

There's also a glitch with the guardian where once you get effected by it, you lose your HUD and can't tell who is the enemy and who is your team (until you die)

You mean he's hard at work
Isn't youtube his job
@@jayr7890more of a side hustle at this point. A few years ago the old coot said TH-cam is not his main source of income anymore because of TH-cam getting too soft and corpo. He said he makes most his money off the stock market, and I imagine he's expanded his money making to other sources by now.
it is his job
It’s his 2nd job he works in accounting or sum he revealed it a few years ago along with his daily whip
As a Call of Duty athlete I needed this vide
It's not even that Derail is bad it's just too big. It feels 3 times as big as a normal map. Ton of spawning and running and everything happens in the middle building so a lot of space gets wasted. But curious to see if hard point utilizes that a little bit like the back of Skid Row. Could actually be better than the OG which isn't saying much
That's the point lol you can play slow or rush to the middle. It's up to the player what kind of game they want to play.
I like the point about map utilization. I don't really like hardpoint, as I'm an S&D main, but I did play it in BO2. However, I can admit some of the bigger maps can benefit from more modern game modes. Hardpoint can put an objective in a previously low traffic section of the map and switch it up.
17:50 why did the old man have to do his teammates like that😂
About the footsteps. U can hear them super well but currently there isn’t any difference between ur teammates footsteps and the enemies
THE 150 hp is more noticable when the SBMM is activated on you and you die in 2 hits but everyone else takes 25 bullets to kill
What's the point of a rigged game. RIP COD
They finally gave back the old damage system, where a few bullets kill you, instead of 30 bullets killing you , like in the past 5 years
I feel like the maps won’t be as fun due to the movements. OG Mw2 movements were slower, still glad they’re adding them in! Rather have OG maps than the map reskinned.
I agree. Maps don't feel as big as they used to because of the movement and the fact you can change your FoV
The maps dont even look the same. There is this brown filter and the colors are dull.

I am just happy that I managed to experience the greatness of old cods. I really just want to understand why they decided to change the older games to what it is now. Bo2 to me was the greatest cod I played. I never played mw2 online so dont roast me. I think i missed out but at the same time, I wasnt around gaming around that time. I just want the orignal way how cod came out
Cod4 to Bo2 was the greatest stretch in a gaming franchise history imo. Absolute banger after banger. Plus Halo 3/reach and gears 3 were out too. Golden age of gaming
@@SteezyMDmultiplayer games had been refined but not overcomplicated yet back then. There’s just too much shit in multiplayer games nowadays that there’s no way to balance the game, and there’s always gonna be an objective Meta. I don’t know I miss the simpler progression without 1000 attachments, battle pass nonsense, etc
After 10 years this Bridman's voice sounds the exact same as them old BO2 multi team videos.
Playing a beta for 20 hours is crazy
He has no life and gets no women obviously
what are you even here for? Call of duty is known for having players who put in 1000s of hours. its really not crazy at all. this would be normal for a regular person whos not a youtuber. In his case hes reviewing the game, it wouldnt be a detailed video unless he played the game alot.
not to mention he gets paid for it
Seriously people who say this is a dlc just completely forget about the zombies and campaign…
But still it feels like a look back into my childhood to see these maps😍
I’m not one to comment on videos but this video deserves it! He went into so much details and referred to so many call of duty’s over the years he knows his shit! Fair play nice video very well detailed!
Solid breakdown, I totally get your point on estate vs skidrow as far as maps go but oddly enough I enjoy estate and dont really like skidrow lol. It's probably just because I'm not great at the game but I feel like I can see easier in Estate and plan my attacks out but then in Skidrow I feel like I'm just staring at grey walls and getting picked off around corners lol. Almost definitely a skill issue but it was cool to see a different opinion.
Why are people talking about this garbage like its anything but MW2 DLC? lmfao
Bring back supply drops and weapon variants like in Advanced Warfare.
I think it’s going to be great the nostalgia is real . The doors are a pain in the ass could do with clearer names about heads it’s tricky always shooting my team mates . I think they done good over all they done it justice I think

Imagine 2 years of MWII💀
Honestly I feel like it didn't even really go out the window. By the looks of it they basically just re-released MW2 under the guise of it being a new game so that they wouldn't have to forgo the yearly cash grab they get for new title releases.
@@JBurns-gp2io you got a point there

I been subbed to bro for so long😭 the most consistent yt
I will say that for some of these maps camo challenges are gonna be a breeze especially for long shots
The problem with 150 base health is balancing issues. The reason OG Mw2 did so well is that every single weapon was strong and viable, only difference was basically recoil. That is how it should be. Do you want AR's to 4 shot you at medium range, then pick up a P90 and use 12 rounds at medium range?
The differential between strong and weak weapons become much more apparent with higher health pool's. Of course, Sub machine guns should be close quarter guns, AR medium to long, and DMR/Sniper long to very long- but when you look at the maps, there isn't enough mixing between these ranges to justify the damage differentials. This is why you see people use the AK, SCAR, M4A1 most of the time, because they serve you best at any range.
Thank you birdman for keeping it real there aren't many TH-camrs like you anymore I appreciate you bro
Cycle continues. He will not break free of it. Must consume product.
Saving my $ again this year
I like that its closer to Cold War TTK. Cold War was my favorite game since BO2 and the one I played the best in, had like a 2.3 K/D in Cold War as a filthy casual
Damn ur good especially on PS5
If there’s an open beta for all without preorder, if it’s decent, then I hope there’s a sale by Christmas then maybe I might try it
Honestly I wish I played back in the day
20+ minute video and I agree 100% with everything you said. I don't think that ever happened for me in a COD video.
I think the spawn thing is a bug because there is quite a number of times where I've lit respawned meters away from mutliple enemies who have just respawned in and sometimes I havent even realised because EVERYONE LOOKS THE FKN SAME!! Surely they gonna fix both these things pretty quick
Back during WW2 i remember the spawns being equally as dog shit and they fixed them pretty quickly. Its a shame the rest of ww2 wasn't fixed quicker because it was a very solid COD 6 months down the line.
WW2 was the best cod in the last 10 years.
@@Coffeendonuts I disagree personally. It took way too long for fixes to be put in place and the maps were awful.
It was decent once it got fixed but most people had abandoned the game by that point. Id rate BO3 and BO4 higher and put ww2 on par with MW2019 from the last ten years.
Man MW2 is a huuuge slice of nostalgia for me personally. Looking back through all the modern call of dutys the game transformed completely to the point where I no longer play. I saw the lineup of maps and instantly knew this was MW2. I preordered this just to play the beta and popped 50-60 kills most games after not playing for 10+ years. I am looking forward to jumping straight into what i think is going to be the next best call of duty in the modern age.
Some tweaks are needed, I think if they adjust the movement A BIT MORE, fix the visibility and a few other things, it'll be a freaking dope game. I've had A TON of fun on my PS5, and am looking forward to the PC beta. Also the devs making this have made it clear they want to listen to feedback and have a reputation for doing it. So if that is the case, I am over all really excited.
@Riorozen You get 16 different maps and the current MW2 maps aren't there. With new movement and speed. its not an update its completely different, its pretty oblivious to say this could be an update. When theres a new call of duty theres only ever minor tweaks to the formula. dont fix whats not broken, MW2 was the best selling cod ever, they fixed a few issues but i could see why the core mechanics are the same mostly
@@Riorozen theres never been a call of duty update that gets rid of every map and gives you 16 different ones. wtf thatd be like updating it to be a completely different game come on now.
The maps are going to be what sets this game apart…I hope so anyway
Agree with this big time. Respect for not falling into the hive mind set and repeating what everyone else is saying
Lemme catch my son playing cod mw3, he would be sleeping on the rails that night 💀
Dont understand how people are exited for a DLC pack its mind boggling
I like the movement. footsteps are confusing. Sometimes, i can't tell if it's the enemy or a teammate. The kill sound effects are boring. Mw2 did it better; especially the headshots. The uav duration is too short. Aim assist was only strong at long range. Counter uav's last too long. Visibility is kinda dookie. Blue dots don't show sometimes. Spawns were only bad for me on skid row. I earned xp a little too fast as i got to lvl 20 in barely 5 hours, and the servers are unstable even for a beta...
Me personally, I could never complain about earning too much XP since it shortens the grind but we're all entitled to our own opinions.
@@PsiballlI agree with you bro
Aim assist is definitely very strange and inconsistent
*THIS!*
The footsteps for enemies/teamates are exactly the same. Its actually amazing how nobody has mentioned this because its constantly disorientating.
I had a panic attack when he said picadilly the map from mw2019 i wanted to forget that name/map😢
Who's buying cod again? Lol
I agree with the spawns, I've noticed the exact "revenge spawn" and have gotten many kills from it. But I've also had some moments where I've spawned legit right next to an enemy
Use to watch this dude play bo3 and call mfs “Eugene” in 5th grade, I just started my freshman year of college. Keep doing you man, glad to see you never switched up

When you mentioned the gameplay being dark and hard to see, I immediately thought of Bane: "Oh, you think darkness is your ally. But you merely adopted the dark; I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but BLINDING!"
12 hours in one day?? i cant even last 10 minutes without the sbmm making me want to unalive myself.
I said the same thing about this was supposed to be released last year. They definitely advertised the old maps for last year’s mw2
Bro, how do you play 12-14 hrs in a single day..? I wanted to put the Striker in my mouth after 2…
Can’t see enemies and teammates shooting each other. Imagine checking 100 dark corners/windows but still die to someone I couldn’t see
This is game
2:23 that graph shows how inconsistent hit detection used to be. bo2 has a lower ttk than mw19, yet bo2's ttk feels slower
I’m good tbh
Same lol
I think I am going to start skipping COD again. I am one of the players that started during COD 4 MW (2007). MW 2 (2009) was amazing. Unfortunately, the series was terrible for almost a decade after that. I will not be playing this installment.
I just bought this game, and seeing that TTK broke my heart, BO4 TTK made me quit until MW2019 because of how long it was, MW22 fixed this almost bringing it back to the OG MW2 TTK and didn't feel so sweaty like MW2019, now I feel like we're going back to sweaty matches and slide cancelling and this is very unfortunate, but at least we get our old maps back I guess
I like how you were talking about the spawns just for it to do exactly what you said in game
I always thought it seemed odd when they released the mw2 remake without mp. Im convinced they made it, decided not to release it so not to split the playerbase that year, and then they held onto it and tweaked it and its now mw3 2023. It plays like an mw2 remake.
List of What I Deem Necessary Features For a Good Game.
A) remove unnecessary movement (sliding and tac sprint. It makes the game require “more skill” and no one wants to sweat, they just want a fun time.)
B) remove attachments that provide any sort of damage increase. (These make it so higher level players will quickly look for a way to get into lower level lobbies. They also provide an unfair advantage to people who don’t have that attachment.)
C) make certain spawn killing is impossible. Whether it be relocating where they spawn mid game or having spawn protection. (No one likes to die before they even get the chance to move/play.)
D) design new maps (I know impossible right?)
E) add DLCS for maps in zombies and multiplayer. By doing so you will make passive income from two sources. People are buying the game and buying more fun content. (Worked for every cod before bo4 should work even better since the player base should only rise if done right. At any point if a player base starts to die out it's time to come up with a new game idea.)
F) Remove any paid for bundles (Money hungry feature that pushes away most casual players.)
G) make any cosmetic locked behind a difficult or fun challenge to add content. (In doing so players will be encouraged to play the game more than if there was only the same thing as every other game.)
H) add fun little easter eggs around maps. (Self explanatory but it's just a nice little touch for people who get nostalgia highs.)
I) Keep guns/weapons fun NOT realistic
Snipers one shot above waist.
Shotguns one shot at close range but are near useless at range.
ARs depending on mag size have more or less dmg/fire rate and never kill in less than 5 bullets.
SMGs are the same as ARs but deal more damage close range and less at distance, for example they 4 shot close range but 7 shot at distance.
LMGs are the same as ARs but will take additional bullets to kill in general due to the excessive magazine.
Pistol will be identical to SMGs but you move a little faster and can switch quicker.
J) Take the necessary time to get a good base before launching. (People will always wait for a good game, but will quickly discard a poorly launched game.)
Finally, don't ignore feedback like it’s going to kill you to look at other people’s opinions.
I think what ties so much nostalgia for these maps for me is this is when drake dropped decent music this was before take care, remember playing on these maps and always listening to drake and lil Wayne 💯
Gone for surgery but now I’m back again World Series attitude I forget the song
Fr haven’t seen this dude since bo2 days and he’s still rocking the Lisa Ann gt 😂😂🎉

Great video! Cook your nades more tho lolol
Mw3 2011 was my fav cod ever so kinda hope it will be a bit like that
It took them to doing another MW3, and i still dont know why they named it that, to just add back MW2 maps that cpuldve just been added to MW 2019 or the fake MW2
17:42 got me in tears😂
So like legitimately I don't remember playing mw2 2009 multiplayer myself but a deep core memory was unlocked seeing this gameplay with the maps so you right on the nostalgia factor.
