Um, yes. This was supposed to be the big jump year I thought. With an extra year of development since MW3 is basically expansion packaged as new game.

MW3 was an expansion cobbled into a new game, but not because this one got an extra year of development, it is because the original plan was to support MW2 for two years. It didn't happen because MW2 was a such an unmitigated hunk of shit that players fell off it far faster than Activision thought they would.
Oh. Isn‘t that basically the same thing? Two years of support is still two years for one game.

They have a signed, legal agreement to bring COD to Switch 2, but it’s GP that’s the reason why it’s coming to last gen hardware?

This tells me Xbox no longer cares about console sales. A lot of Xbox gamers were hanging onto the belief that having COD on only current gen consoles this holiday would drive PS4 users to switch to Xbox. Microsoft doesn't even think it's worth the attempt. They throwing in the towel, imoThey have a signed, legal agreement to bring COD to Switch 2, but it’s GP that’s the reason why it’s coming to last gen hardware?
COD on Switch2 may just be Warzone and not the yearly releases. I don't know details of contract. I feel like it was broad wording though

Was hoping to finally see a major technical leap in the franchise, but it ain't happening while tethered to HDDs with a guaranteed throughput of ~20MB/s and underclocked Jaguar CPUs.
Just the QoL possibilities alone across the UI/UX could be massive in streamlining the experience. More clunky bullshit it is..

I wish they rehashed the same game every year with the 2019 engine and mechanics

Yeah most competitive guys are not even running high settings so the fact it is still on old gen, they don't care because it looks fine.

thinks Halo Infinite is a new graphical benchmark
A lot of life left in last gen PS4, some haven’t made the transition to PS5 and next gen yet.

No comment on the other post, but this isn't coming to Switch 2, so, what does that have to do with anything?They have a signed, legal agreement to bring COD to Switch 2, but it’s GP that’s the reason why it’s coming to last gen hardware?
It's not like they will be supporting PS4 and Xbox One forever, probably not even by next year when COD finally comes back to Nintendo hardware after 12 years.

We all know the multiplayer is what's important, but we've yet to get a next gen iteration of COD.
I wonder what that might actually be like...

This is all but confirming a Gamepass release. These fuckers know they are going to need ALL the sales they can get after dropping on Gamepass aka Sales Killer.

Sad but true.
All sense of innovation or vision ended with the original MW trilogy.

It's already one of the best looking competitive FPS multis on the market, 4K160 this game looks great and runs rock solid.
I honestly have no issue with this, it looks amazing on my 4090 and allows probably 75million people still out there the choice to keep playing it if they wished who most likely aren't in the financial position to enjoy a new console. Neogaf for the vast majority is rich western gamers.
No issue with the bros out there doing it bit tougher still getting to play this, CoDs played for fun with the mates not a visual TLoU fest.
Even once this goes next gen, the graphics aren't going to improve as much as people think. 120/160fps has always been the driver here

It is the best that has come out for a while. Perfection actually if they got rid of sbmm and disbanding lobbies.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Do you really think this wouldn't have been cross gen if it wasn't going to be on game pass?

Yet they wonder why so many gamers are still holding on to their antiquated PS4’s. Maybe they should put it on the Switch, PS3 and X360 as well?

If Gamepass was never a thing and Xbox series sales were healthy? Absolutely that could have been an option to finally move forward with the tech.

Pretty much. IW/MW Engine runs great no matter the build and scales really well with gear. From high end PC's down to lower tier ones and consoles. And making it more accessible on more systems is a good thing. Graphics are never really an issue for these types of competitive MP games anyways.
I'd be happy if we get similar visuals and performance as MW3, and can run over 200fps in MP with my current GPU. Assuming I can't get ahold of a 5080. And for consoles,120fps would be most ideal way to play.

PS4 is just a low spec PC at this point, not sure why people get so bent out of shape. PS4 still brings in sales and companies are smart to take advantage of that. Also, why not PS4, if Microsoft is going to force the game onto older XBOX system?
People are to free to gvie up money and profits that aren't theirs.

Especially with Sony doing mid generation pro consoles. I was finally going to ditch my PS4 Pro and get a PS5 but leaks of Sony once again doing a Pro this gen changed my plans. Now I will stick with the PS4 just a bit longer. I doubt I am the only one that will just wait each gen until the Pro versions release. I usually have a somewhat significant backlog so not a huge deal waiting really. Heck, I just recently bought Persona 3 Reload on my PS4 Pro since 30fps doesn't bother me much in a game with turn based battles.

Please explain to me why it gets me excited hearing about a new COD coming to a current Nintendo console. I don't plan on buying a Switch 2, nor have I played COD since BO2.
I sincerely doubt a lot of people expected significant numbers of people jumping from PS4 to Xbox Series over multiplatform COD.
I believe most of the hope is over xbox COD bundles and Gamepass COD
It’s the full COD experience, with parity with xbox and PlayStation.
Why wouldn’t it be? Switch 2 should likely run the game better than last gen consoles.
Of course it’s coming to Switch 2. At launch, for sure.
Develop it to be playable on base Xbox One and it’s playable on 6 of those there.
Not you making a distinction between Xbox One and One S. you might as well add the PS5 digital as a separate SKU to develop for, while you’re at it

Yes. Of course I blame them. Their short sighted greed has led to a stagnant video games market that will hurt them as much as it does us.
