      Re: Modern Warfare II

      And another when trying to play today. It's unbelievable how unstable this game is on PC. I've never played a game that crashes this much.

        Regarding your advice, how does this apply to somebody who uses a controller on their PC?
        I think the article I read said it works fine for controller only issue I remember seeing was equipping it with a mouse click

          I've been reading a lot of this, which is why I'll likely wait a week or two to buy. Gunplay looks fantastic, maps don't look great but also not totally awful either. Give me a quality of life patch after the first week and I'll be hopping in quick.

          Also, after playing the beta, it's incredible their UI/UX testing passed in any form. It has to be one of the clunkiest, most confusing menus I've ever seen. And based off of some streamers I've watched, it doesn't seem to have changed at all post-beta. Not a huge deal, but man is it frustrating that little stuff like this still plagues these huge studios.

            I hate they released the game with out hardcore mode. Overall the game is great so far.

              Gameplay is fun. UI is terrible. The stability is a mess. Fix the stability and I can live and will have fun.

                I have no self control and caved and bought it the same day as I posted the above .

                I actually have been having a ton of fun so far. Obvious terrible menus, interface could use some work. However, the gameplay has been about as good as I can remember a CoD MP being in recent memory. If I had one gripe, it's that the time in between games is *too* fast now. Before it took forever, now I literally don't even have time to update a weapon in between games. Which also comes back to the terrible interface, I can't understand the custom loadout screen to save my life.

                  Gonna wait till it’s stable on PC. I’m more excited for Warzone 2 though. Warzone 1 killed MP for me

                    The game isn't much more stable on PS5, honestly. The game is constantly dropping party members and causing crashes. It seems to mostly be a problem when you're playing in a group, but still, this is some poor QA.

                    I also agree that the UI is bad. Too many shoddy-designed menus and "hidden" features. This stuff was fine in MW, too, so I don't know what made them go hard on the obfuscation.

                      Has their always been an issue with not hearing members of your party during matches?

                      I haven’t played COD in a while so I wasn’t sure if this has always been an issue or something that just started

                        I'm all about Invasion right now. Putting up 5k points a round and just having a blast with this game.

                          Are you and your party members in a voice channel together? If you are, are you "connected?" On a PS5 this involves pressing start, going to the little headset icon and hitting square.

                          They literally made the easiest thing ever impossible to figure out with their new voice chat features. I'm loving the gameplay so far but some of the other decisions they made are absolutely dumbfounding.

                            I finally caved and bought this game.

                            It's still COD so there's the typical stuff that comes along with it but overall this game plays really good. The TTK is about right, I love that you can play the game more methodical and strategic.

                            The only complaint I have is the weapon customization UI. I enjoy that there are a lot of options and that you are forced to use weapons you ordinarily wouldn't in order to further progression but the menu is not intuitive enough to make any meaningful changes between rounds. I think some sort of basic list style menu would work well for that. I think I read somewhere they are overhauling it?

                            No real interest in BR so Warzone doesn't matter to me but for the most part I've enjoyed playing Domination, Kill Confirmed, Hardpoint, etc.. I just completely avoid team deathmatch.

                            I saw some of the popular streamers complaining about the game. If it makes me a 33 year old boomer then so be it but I think the movement, pace of play, etc. are better for a COD than MW19. I know they all fell in love with breaking their hand to slide cancel across the map and tactical sprinting automatically but the game is better without it. I just really disagree with them complaining about lack of "skill gap" instead of adapting or moving on.I didn't like MW19 so I moved on.. no big deal.

                            I think Battlefield V still has some of the best movement in a FPS but it works well for that style of gun mechanics. For COD I think this one feels good and I could see myself enjoying it for a long time.

                              Game is really ****ing good

                              Pretty sad that Ground War is a better Battlefield game than Battlefield 2042.
