    lol, I don’t. I won’t even pirate AAA games (I always buy if I enjoy them). not worth the time because they aren’t fun.

      I’m absolutely glad I’m not playing BO6 Part 2, which is what this game is. Forget that nonsense, I’d rather go to BOII, BO4, MW Remastered, or even BOIII for that matter.

      I heard the BOIII modded zombies scene has been cooking some good stuff as time goes on.

        You don’t need to own the game to try it when you have friends.

              They didn’t say that. Just that they love campaigns in shooters.

                Point to me one AAA studio that doesn’t have those. If you want to be 100% ethical you should only buy indie games, and I honestly don’t fault anyone for doing so. I just buy whatever game I find good. Unless the company is literally funding nazis, LGBTQ+ phobia (like Hogwarts Legacy), or war crimes (like Escape from Tarkov, and I also did not buy BO7 until Microsoft pulled out of giving money to Israel), if the game is good in the area I care about, I will buy it.

                  Just play a singleplayer FPS then? That isn’t CoD’s niche anymore my dude.

                  Why did they spend time making a single player part of the game?

                    A full width split screen zombies mode, and a full lobby of people who want to play Kino Der Toten are pretty much the only thing that would interest me in another COD BLOPS title.

                    I just can’t imagine who these titles are for now. I appreciate they’re trying to make the graphics and sound amazing, but these online experiences, as imagined by the developers, have taken away more than they’ve given.

                    The last modern warfare title I bought was MW2, that bizarro named one. I opened it a few weeks ago and the whole game has become a loader to other COD games and its multiplayer lobbies are empty. So stupid and I wish I could get a refund.

                      I’m not so sure about the latest versions, if they made local split screen better.

                      Black Ops 3 has the Kino der Toten map split screen but it doesn’t run full width. I’m pretty sure the same map on Black Ops 1 did run full width.

                      My favorite moments with these games were always playing locally, and having that keeps the game playable for as long as you own it and a working console.

                      When you say “it doesn’t run full width”, what do you mean? I’m not following either 😅 do you mean the split screen is vertical (i.e. side-by-side) rather than horizontal (i.e. one on top of the other)?

                        Here’s an example of the split screen not running at full width on Black Ops 3

                        And here’s how it used to look on Black Ops 1: https://youtu.be/lnF2W-e7e8Q

                            Oh, that’s strange! And you’re saying that this happens only on this map? The not-full-width thing, I mean?

                              That’s weird. Maybe it’s a performance issue, they squeeze a few more FPS with narrower views.

                                I can point to you several other games, many of them shooters, that are singleplayer. Like, you have the three modern DOOM games and ULTRAKILL just as an example. And like, you don’t NEED to have it be new games? You can just buy old singleplayer military FPSes?? Like, just looking at my library, I have Arma: Cold War Assault, Red Alert 2: Heroes of Stalingrad, every Bioshock game, Half-Life 1 and 2, Black Mesa, Medal of Honor (2010), Crysis 2, Spec Ops: The Line…

                                Operation Harsh Doorstop is good for a military shooter, of which I’ve played in the past. It’s free to play too if I’m not mistaken (and the modding scene for it is quite fantastic as well).

                                  Modem warfare 3 was the last COD game I played and I thought it was mid.

                                  The original modern warfare was peak COD imo (MW2 was also very good)

                                  I played BOII, of which was arguably the best COD game of all time. I also considered playing MW Remastered for the Horizon Modern Warfare mod.

                                      It’s so puzzling, you can have any world you want in a video game, absolutely fantastical places to explore and take your mind off things and be intuitive and solve puzzles, there is way too much violence in the world already, I really will never get it.
