Warzone already exists with its big maps and the new rebooted MW3 campaign featured Far Cry-esque mission formatting. Based on that design trajectory, an open-world CoD campaign is pretty much inevitable.
>Far Cry
I loved Far Cry 3 and 4, unfortunately I don't believe Raven can make such a quality single player game.
Frick, even Ubisoft themselves can't make a good new Far Cry anymore.
They have 80 billions to find, of course COD, WOW and cie are going to be milked to death
>multiplayer maps
worse, it was the first Warzone map from 2020
the first Warzone map they're going to rerelease because they saw how hyped Fortnite was when they brought back the first map last year

Actually the Verdansk mission in the campaign was just a normal level. It wasn't one of the "open world" levels.
Here's how an anon from the cod general explained the situation: >Infinity Wards original plan for MW3 was an episodic release of it's story throughout its second year similar to how they released the raids in MW2. So when going into MW3 season 1 all players would have played of MW3's story would have been the first campaign mission in the game. Season 1 focuses on Nolan because the players just got done playing as Nolan and busting out Makarov. >But Activision said "Nope frick that full game out in Novemeber" so the episodes got released all at once. We now have the entire story. But the development for season 1 content was already started. So those cutscenes got new dialogue to update the context.
>Raven Software
Are they really trying to bank on nostalgia here? I doubt the studio that has worked in the COD map mines for the last decade will be anywhere near its former self. Hell, they were never even that popular to begin with.
Open world war game has potential, but as long as consoles and low-end OCs are part of the targeted systems, the games will not have the hardware necessary to have an actual live battlefield. It will just be more static locations that you clear out with occasional story segments that only cue when you go to the predetermined area on the map.
Ugh... cod doesn't have the bones for open world campaign. It works as a side mode where it doesn't demand that much from it other than excuses to shoot around AI but for campaign it's so lackluster. Either it goes full Battlefield 2:MC or Frontlines Fuel of War, with armies (doubt since it looks more like it wants to be far cry with fast travel) or better to just have traditional level design, much more memorable.
They are just doing it to re use the maps for warzone aren't they?
Is it really that expensive for them to make a 6 hour linear campaign? That's all we want, it just has to be a fun way to engage with the games new mechanics and weapons and check out the pretty graphics while drinking a few beers
How can you crash something that was never good to begin with?
cod was good for awhile but black ops 1 was the peak after that it was all down hill
Does Raven have any good devs left at it?
it's a ship of theseus
anybody who ever worked on a decent raven title 15 years ago is long gone
🙁
i want new hexen/heretic

didn't MW3 do pseudo-open world levels that were just reused multiplayer maps?

I find it hilarious that theres a premium battle bass, on top of the normal battle pass

Raven is the worst of the 3 studios isn't it?
Sledgehammer is the worst of the 4
Pre MW2 2010 IW > Treyarch > Raven > Post MW2 2010 IW > Sledgehammer

WHAT IS WITH MICROSOFT AND OPEN WORLD SHIT?
>GEARS OF WAR
>HALO
>NOW CALL OF DUTY
STOP FRICKING RUINING FRANCHISES YOU HACK homosexualS
So just like they did with Halo, turned it into a open world slop.
Imagine telling yourself 15 years ago that there will be an open world Halo game and it's gonna destroy the entire Xbox brand
I still can't believe everyone pretended this campaign was good

No it doesnt. It never does unless you were an open world game to begin with.
>open world COD
>bad
do Gankertards really?
MW3's campaign did that and it was the most boring campaign ever
Oh yeah if there's one thing I loved about CoD it was the game having invisble walls that prevented all flanking
MW2 (2009) sold 4.9 million copies in the first 24 hours
MW2 (2022) sold 4.5 million copies in the first week

>>COD going open world slop
Oh god, how could they let the sloppiest sloppa in the industry slightly change its brand of slop?

he was right, they showed the dog
>3 hour open world game
how exciting
>open word elements
>fast travel
So its global map where you pick missions to play.
YOOOO LES FRICKIN GOOOOOOOOO!!!! COD-BROS WERE GOING HOME! WERE EATING GOOD
they want to recycle the BR map and put as little effort into the campaign as possible
