    How are you finding COD? This was my favourite game back in the MW2 days but I got completely turned off the series. Last one I enjoyed was MW3 and haven't bought the last few. As years go by I'm tempted to jump back in and the boots on the ground stuff appeals. I feel real conflicted on one hand there' stuff I like but on the other I see issues that'll drive me insane (like quite possibly literally insane). Kind of waiting for the post-launch novelty to wear off before I make a final decision.

    to be honest I usually only play online and I've been having trouble with my Xbox live sub at the moment so I haven't got a chance yet, that being said I usually don't play the single player and for the past two nights I've been enjoying that.

    I'll hopefully have the live issue fixed today and ill play it over the weekend and ill let you know.

    yeah I saw you having trouble getting online on an xbox thread but hadn't checked the dates. Used to like the campaigns but couldn't get through Blops2/Ghosts. I think I played 3 or 4 online Ghosts' games. Pretty sure the Blops two disc was in my garden for 8 months

    I was a big MW fan and to be honest and I didn't really like the WWII games they brought out but this one just looked class and with the deal for the xbox I couldn't turn is down so if I like it I'm sure anyone who had anytime for the WWII games will as well

    I used to love Call of Duty, but MW3 was such a load of bollocks that it killed any interest I had in the series.

    Excellent game. You might be better going for the deluxe edition as you'll get season pass for a tenner

    Saw a really good video the other day about how EA/Dice managed to turn around Battlefield 4. The launch must have been one of the worst ever and caused huge backlash from the community. Over time (a long long time) they eventually fixed a lot what was wrong and continued to support it probably to the detriment of subsequent BF games (Hardline / BF1). It's still a really good game, quite well supported 4 years on.


    Hard to see how the likes of D2, COD WW2, Battlefront 2 etc are going to recover from their launches or if the studios will even throw resources at them to do so. Don't necessarily think these are bad games or that they will certainly harm their franchises but the games themselves seem to have significant problems.

    to be honest I've totally forgotten about BF4 since I got BF1 I might load it back up and have a look at it! I remember really enjoying it!

    Think that was mainly down to Dice LA getting at it and un****ing it.

    It was proper ****e at launch, definition of a half finished game.

    Take away is that there'll either be refunds offered or Bungo will need to reverse the changes.

    Microsoft have given them a deadline already, Sony will probably follow suit, Blizzard as well maybe?

    Only way they listen is hit em in the wallet
