Why does everyone hate COD now?

Everyone I have seen loved 4 and people are hating on five, when it is just four but explored differently(WW2). Now people are hating on 6? Also, I never liked COD4 I like halo alot more and can't play cod for more than an hour without getting bored, I am just wondering why people suddenly hate it?

Well, when something sells well (like 10-15 million plus) it will naturally have unsatisfied consumers. People will actually play COD4, 5 or 6 and NOT like it.

To be fair, it is a good game series, i just hate FPS where all you have to do is stand behind something to recover health and let the red on your screen disappear. I think its stupid and cheap. But thats me.

Well the next modern warfare isnt part of COD anymore.

And the other devs whoi now handle COD were the worse ones anyway 9although COD5 imo was a superb game)

Part of the problem is probably the guns in COD5, not as accurate online and less customisation options?

Plus i think people just generally like the setting of modern times much more.

As for hating on MF2, ive not seen any and I cant wait for it.

I have always always hated Call of Cuty ever since before 4 was released.

they dont. its just the small percentage that don't like it are far more vocal than the overwhelming amount that do like it.

1. Story is stupid

2. Lack of a hero (like Master chief or gordon freeman)

i find nothing wrong with the series it can get old though.

Because CoD is milkage and the people that buy it are supporting this milkage. CODMW2 is just a rehash with new guns and a new mode (kinda like what 5 was) I wont be buying into activisions milkage this year my last game was W@WWii_Gamer_277

I have noticed the decline in COD praise lately and I have no clue why TBH.

Personally I was never in love with the series but I do thing 3 and 4 were great. Im looking forward to MW2.

SSBB is not milkage.

The rest, meh, whatever.

best Mario Kart was on the N64.

Because knowing CoD4 sold well there going to hop on the "Guitar Hero Milkage" Train and ride it all the way to the bank..

Which is not neccessarly a bad thing. there making money and pumping out games as well, but i swear...if i see Call of Duty 7, i will kill somebody.

Having played them to death may have something to do with it.

Because it's boring now, despite how well made Call of Duty 4 was, it can be a chore to play. It also doesn't take any skill, and the campaigns really aren't that replayable either.

Yep, I agree totally. CoD 4 was well made, no doubt. But it really was, IMO, a total chore to play. 2002 gameplay with totally static enviornments? No thanks, I'll pass.

As for myself, it is more that I am just getting sick of so many shooters every year. Modern Warfare 2 is looking good visually. It is just the fact that it is yet another year and yet another usual FPS being mentioned with the holiday season's top shelf games. Do not get me wrong, I still enjoy shooters, they just take a back seat to RPG's and action adventure titles for me.

The only shooters I am hyped for this year are Wolfenstein, Red Dead Redemption and Borderlands, which is actually an RPG/FPS hybrid. Other than those 3,which are more campaign driven, I just do not think I will be able to handle anymore shooters this year. Especially typical war first person shooters that mainly are online frag fest driven.

people like to hate things that everyone else likes..they think it gives them individuality...-_-;

[QUOTE="Wii_Gamer_277"][QUOTE="h575309"] Ok so by that definition, how is Mario Kart Wii, SSBB, L4D2, and the countless other rehashes not "milkage"?h575309

Yeah, schools been busy. I had to drop a class just to give myself time to study. So yeah, CoD 4 just had some bad gameplay design. It's AI was terrible, and to make up for it, they just spawned dozens of them with infinite respawns. Yeah, bad game design FTL.

It refuses to evolve in any meaningful way beyond what was already present in CoD2.

Fantastic campaign on 4. 5 had an awful campaign. Both had awful multiplayer. Dumbed down to it's simpliest form for mass appeal. Add in yearly sequals and it gets old very fast.

I'll be buying it this year for the campaign but i doubt i'll majorly touch the multiplayer. I'll be heading back to halo this year.

Let see, the game started out with large epic open scale battles in both MP and SP (the smallest map in cod 1 is bigger than the biggest map in cod 4), it now has smaller close quarters battles, the game also had balanced guns and lack of a UAV, so flanking was a very big threat in MP games, again in Cod4 UAV all but nullifies any flanking that you can possibly do and promotes camping and assists in the nade spamming trendously. In shipment I've literally thrown grenades where the red dots were and racked up tons of kills, it was stupid and this noobified MP really turned me off from the series.

After all it is releasing each year

The multiplayer is more overrated than the campaigns as well, I can never get into it.

Gameplay perfect? :lol:

Maybe you're satisfied with stagnation but I certainly am not.

I don't like the vocal outcry about COD games being rehashes because i can't disagree more. Each game since COD2 has been vastly different from its predecessor (well as different as a FPS can be), usually adding a new game mode/game mechanic each year. Moreover these games are not meant to be purchased for their single player campaigns, they are all about online experience and each new installment delivers continually each year. Obviously people who dislike the franchise just don't enjoy FPS games or are uber halo fanboys (nothing against halo i just find the game play of COD to be more challenging and deeper). I look forward to modern warfare 2 because i have a lot of faith in infinity ward! deadesa

:lol: really man?

in addition compared to halo's online which consists of running at a person shooting then meleeing i find it to be FATHOMS deeper

I enjoy a lot of FPSs and found the online in these new COD games to be overrated... And I'm pretty sure people buy games for both SP/MP, you get your money's worth off of that.deadesa
