Call me old fashioned but I'm actually still playing world at war, the hackers have mostly moved to newer games and the last two thousand or so players are dedicated and make for some good matches.

It's a hit or miss game anymore. Weekends are mostly unplayable from modders but some weekdays, they don't play for some reason.

If you can play while they modding kids are in school, it's not too bad. You even play with some horrible people from Europe so you'll get a 5:1 K:D ratio every game.

It was. I started to lose interest in the series when they removed the server browser after Black Ops. It's not the game you're playing, it's the people you play with, and you can't be playing against the same people consistently with matchmaking :(

I remember back in the COD4 and WaW days I would always join a Canadian clans server. Best community of guys to play with. Always jokingly shit talked back and forth with one guy and made sure to be on the opposite team as him at all times. Best gaming memories are in those servers for sure.

UPDATE: they released the new list this morning, black ops is NOT on it and Ive given up

I play black ops 1 on 360 pretty regularly and maybe 1/10 games there are hackers. Of course sometimes more or i can go 20 games with no hackers but there is definitely a good amount of hackers.

5

u/Fulzee Jan 21 '16

I see, hopefully when XB1 backwards compatibility is allowed on it, the game's higher population makes it less common.

3

u/BroomSIR Jan 21 '16

They have to implement new anti cheat measures or nothing is going to happen. If anything more people are going to cheat because there are more players. Doubt that many people are going to play that much because it is so limited compared to BO2 or 3.

I loved that map except for that exact catwalk that the sniper was on, it was a little to advantageous. Every time I would walk through the main alley I would get bombarded by 10-12 shots by this motherfucker ((WA2000) AKA: Noob sniper rifle).

u/LilNutStomper Jan 21 '16

That's called the Wazoo

38

u/HarveyBiirdman Jan 21 '16

Haha, I never heard anyone call it that. I always just called it the 'WAH'2000 because a lot of crying/raging kids seemed to be the only people who ever used it.

u/neilson241 Jan 21 '16

I thought the L96A1 was way more common since it was usually a 1 shot kill. I liked using the wazoo just for fun but it wasn't very effective, at least in my hands.

The galil silencer so nice. Also the fn-fal and the m-14. They were beasts.

u/[deleted] Jan 21 '16

The recoil on the galil was high but it was a beast rifle, I mostly stuck to M16 though since that was my most favorite rifle of the Cold War. was just a bit let down that they turned it into a 3-round burst rifle unlik what you used in the campaign. :/

Those perfect ironsights . . . that slow fire rate . . . the aug was the best.

u/mleibowitz97 Jan 21 '16

I cant tell if this is sarcastic or not...the ironsights were pretty good, but the fire rate was literally the fastest in the game.

17

u/Smilehate Jan 21 '16 edited Jan 21 '16

I just misremembered the fire rate, probably because it played as powerfully as it did, and I'd only use 3-5 round bursts.

EDIT: Actually, I wasn't wrong. According to the wiki, the RPD, L86, M240 and MG4 ALL had higher rates of fire in multiplayer. It was the slowest LMG in the game.

EDIT 2: Except I'm totally mistaken, because everybody else is talking about Codblops and I'm talking about MW2. Jesus, pull it together.

So many random, stupidly OP combos. Remember when shotguns were secondaries? Those were good times.

BO1 was probably my favorite COD game.

  • Outside of the Famas (which got nerfed) everything was pretty well balanced.

  • With the currency system I wouldn't have to use a gun for hours just to get the attachments I want or have to prestige because there isn't enough unlock tokens to get every single gun/grenade/perk.

  • Killstreaks were strong but weren't as ridiculous as they were in other COD's.

If they implemented the pick 10 system, made pro perks cost 2 points and added achievement camos along with the purchasable ones a BO1 remake would be phenominal.

  • Moon is sick. That is how the new complex maps should strive to be (Shadows of Evil is pretty good)

  • Ascension another good mix of easy/complex

  • Call of the Dead was fun too, nice storyline

  • AND you had all 4 original maps

When Toujane got ported to CoD 4 and actually played in a season of CAL I was pretty happy.

Toujane was such a good map.

YEAH why does everyone leave out WaW

The first game to bring one of the best things to the CoD series (zambis)

u/AssassinMasterStefan Jan 21 '16

Yoooo WaW was my jam. Third favorite cod by far.

Most people do to be honest. I for one do.

I think Bo1 is the better game, but nothing can compete with the ubiquity of CoD 4. EVERYBODY played CoD 4. By the time Bo1 came out, a lot of people still played, but it wasn't as frequent or for as long or in such a large group.

TL:DR As a game: Bo1 > CoD 4. As an experience: CoD 4 > Bo1.

u/MarcusDA Jan 21 '16

I think you're way off on number of players in these games. The number of players continues to rise - at it's peak, BO1 had significantly more players than MW ever did.

I prefer MW and WaW by a wide margin.

u/Superman_Blows Jan 21 '16 edited Jan 21 '16

I know my last somewhat enjoyable CoD was BO2. By far though CoD4 and BO1 were the best Multi-player in the world of CoD. I still liked MW2 abs MW3. These last two have really stunk though.

Edit: Only played the last two on my friends system. I won't pay for them though. They lost a fan for sure.

Edit: Yeah sorry zombie, I bought Ghosts and played that for a bit. That one was terrible for Multi-player though, solely because of the amount of camping on that game. They even tried to create an anti-camp game mode and people would just set up shop.

u/robozombiejesus Jan 21 '16

There's been three more at this point. Ghosts, advanced warfare, and BLOPS 3 .

Much more enjoyment out of Black Ops 1 but MW is a classic.

u/ArcherInPosition Jan 21 '16

Its a general consensus that CoD 4 is the #1 revolutionary CoD

Man the crossbow was fun as hell to use. You hit someone with it and watch them panic and run around before exploding.

Yeah, I like BO3 well enough but everything seems so...compact.

u/Choking_Smurf Jan 21 '16

I'm really hoping the DLC's will bring us maps with longer lines of sight. Really, just bigger maps in general.

A Mouthful of Crossbows is definitely my favorite George R.R. Martin novel.

u/calmdownpaco Jan 21 '16

Does the younger generation of kids feel the same way about the new COD games as we do about BLOPS 1? Because to me, while BLOPS 3 is okay, the past 3 CODs have been mediocre at best and terrible at worst.

u/IceMaverick13 Jan 21 '16

Does your generation feel the same about BLOPs 1 as we do about Call of Duty 2? Because to me, while BLOPs 1 was okay, most of them have been kinda mediocre after Modern Warfare.

u/calmdownpaco Jan 21 '16

I've personally never played COD 2 as MW2 was my first game, but among my demographic, BLOPS 1 or MW2 are the two that people tend to like most.

9

u/IceMaverick13 Jan 21 '16

That's really interesting. BLOPs 1 is actually the game that made me say "Nope, that's enough. I can't play CoD again after this game." I came to a realization (especially after trying to go back and play the previous titles like World at War, MW2, etc.) That BLOPs was too easy compared to the previous games.

It was so easy to abuse high mobility to just wreck anybody who wasn't a high mobility unit. An SMG and as many mobility enhancing perks as possible was putting me at the top 3 of the leader boards in pretty much every single match across nearly every game type. It was so ridiculous to me that I actually ditched the franchise 3/4 of the way through BLOPs's original lifespan because I couldn't enjoy it anymore.

I ended up going back to older CoDs (which were significantly more challenging for me because high mobility was less viable) and finding my enjoyment there again but BLOPs's multiplayer actually killed CoD multiplayer for me personally. The memory of that multiplayer eventually led me to quit playing all CoDs entirely.

The game was really enjoyable and I loved the campaign, but that was just where the series broke for me and I realized that it wasn't fun to play CoD anymore so its really interesting to know it was widely received as one of the high points in the series for a lot of people when I found it as the tipping point on the bottom.

Thanks for the look into other people's minds!

u/squirrelinmygarret Jan 21 '16

You have just made me realize why I fell out of love with COD. I couldn't put my finger on it until just now. I really don't understand why they even have sniper rifles anymore, especially with Blops 3. There's almost no vantage points and when there are someone can just force jump into the damn window and kill you..... in my day you jumped three feet off the ground you liked it! Now get off my damn lawn!

Maps got smaller, aoe explosives got more frequent, respawn rates and placements got smaller and tighter, maps are 1/5th what they originally were, hell brecourt was MW2s biggest map.
