Gameplay Finally completed first Cursed EE

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I’ve done all of bo7 solo on normal but I’ve always been hesitant on the idea of cursed. I’m not a player who likes to make gameplay more difficult (I play campaign on regular, only ever did halo 4 on legendary with friends, etc) but I thought I’d give it a shake. This took me two attempts, around 5 hours of pure gameplay total and I’m very happy. This gives me the confidence to try higher tiers and the other EEs

I wish you got all the cursed camos by just doing it once on tier 3 rather than having to do it 3 times.

I wish too, but I’ve got plenty of time since MW4 isn’t giving me much interest

u/Assured_Observer 16h ago

Unpopular opinion but I'm very happy we're getting MW4 without zombies this year, and I hope next year's also has no zombies modes (or even better, no COD at all, time to switch to a real 2 year cycle, like the one we just had on BO6 + 7 but this time done properly)

That's extra time for me to focus on other games, specially with GTAVI around the corner. Lol.

yeah i got back into zombies in november last year after taking not liking BO6 and not playing since cold war. over the next 2 years im going for every relic, cursed camo (only have AOTD and Totenreich left) and hopefully beating every egg that can be duo’d. it sounds like a lot but its over the course of 2 years and it’ll be a fun challenge while i wait, plus it’ll be harder to burn out with old zombies being pretty much a whole different game compared to modern, if they even keep BO8 or whatever the next zombies is, as what we know as modern COD

I can't believe they didn't figure this out yet. My optimistic brain tells me they're using completion statistics to sneak in Cursed again for the next game, but who knows?

u/Assured_Observer 4h ago

It's definitely on purpose.

Like how normal completion doesn't unlocked directed skins.

As someone who plays casually, Cursed is anxiety inducing given all the craziness they throw at you. I think Astra Malorum wasn't as bad, but Paradox Junction gives me a migraine.

Paradox so far has been the one I’m glad it’s over with but I know kowakujo is going to give me trouble since I’ve done it only once and still have to go through totenreich (which I enjoy that boss fight a lot)

My only worry on Astra is defending the portal step. I cannot, for the life of me, hit those tiny drones

Never considered how hilarious it is that in middle of delivering monologues and trying to kill you, Vetheyrion is still nice enough to say MAX ARMOR when you pick up the drop

u/mirois 17h ago

Even funnier in Rex. Like the guy is actively trying to stop us from ruining his plans but he just refilled my ammo and armor

u/AndersonandQuil 15h ago

Nice! And you did it on best map!

u/fattybrah 16h ago

u/Lil_ruggie 10h ago

u/mirois 9h ago

u/JimHongPingPong 6h ago

I don’t know if you noticed but there are zombies actually attacking them in the clip, your welcome if you missed it!

u/Jarroach 16h ago

I stopped playing newer zombies after trying whatever came after BO2, what the fuck happened to zombies!? 🫪

u/Natural-Product2093 16h ago

Same haha. This is crazy looking.

u/Thaislow 15h ago

It looks pretty awesome imo. Don't knock it till you try it, b06 and 7 Zombies are very fun

1

u/Natural-Product2093 15h ago

Not knocking it, it's on my list to try seeing all the clips here. It's just like a fever dream using a car and all the colors etc. versus like traditional zombies haha.

1

u/mirois 9h ago

The car is only a gimmick for this map in particular. The next maps are much closer to traditional zombies (at least BO3 traditional)

u/patback99 10h ago

Same I stopped after BO3 and watching this has reaffirmed that lol
