I don't mind the new map but the mechanisms for looting, carrying stuff etc and having to find a satchel to have 3 plates in seems daft. I had a really weird one, first game I tried quads and ended up in a squad on my own, thought this isn't gonna end well... Only won the bloody game on my own.


After that I had a few more difficult games so maybe I was in a lobby full of complete idiots the first time, but overall the map is ok, I think the guns may be slightly easier to use, but I prefer all the old interfaces.

I can't put my finger on it but does anyone think it feels a bit more arcadey than the old warzone?

I was trying battlefield vibes from the new warzone map in the way the guns moved a bit more and the way it looked

Mainly play multiplayer - free for all, team deatchmatch and kill confirm.

Hard to get used to the game when you don't know the maps, but once the gun upgrades a bit and you get used to the maps then it becomes quite enjoyable.

I don't really understand the upgrade dynamics on the guns so just use the M4 all the time!

Maps are decent, other than... the F1 race track map which I hate.

That Desert ruin map Taraq is the worst by far, awful.

Observations after 2 days

I prefer the new map
I feel like the guns are maybe easier to use

The TTK is too fast especially in multiplayer
I don't understand the gun progression
The user interface, ping system, method of inviting friends to games etc is all crap. Not a patch on the old game.

What console are you on Yazza? Whats your tag i’ll add you.

Must admit after the couple of games I had the other week I haven’t bothered to turn it back on as I felt the same.

I only do HC TDM though and the last version was great. Many an hour wasted.

Hi mate same as on here, tried team death match and shoothouse last night and it was totally demoralising hehe I'm sure it's just a case of getting used to the timing. I'm more into Warzone tbh.

The sounds, or lack of in Warzone are a bit odd I feel. Seems very quiet. Then blam you're dead!

Do boxes not hum / buzz anymore in warzone or is there a setting I need?

I played a couple of Warzone games - seems ok, got to learn the map.

Not sure what the deal is with multiple players in the Gulag?!

They make a weird droning kinda noise but it's not obvious.

Glad i returned MW2 for a refund now as its quicker to level guns in warzone!

It's ok looting is not the best and the map is so big. Dare i say to small for 150 people? Trying to plate up is slow so much so you get taken out straight away.

Hardly any loot about when you do open a box.

What’s all the backpack stuff about, I don’t get it, seems to be way too much time spent on a box making you choose what to take?!

Also is there a setting to single tap open boxes as that seems to take way too long.

Not feeling it yet at all.

Not enjoying warzone at all, but glad that HC has arrived saves emptying a clip for a kill.

Biggest issue is the maps are too camping friendly as opposed to skillful sniping. And spawn kills, I was in a game the other day on the Camp 18 when we all kept spawning in the bales section and no matter what side we tried to exit we got mowed down with heavy auto fire.

I'm loving shoot house playing it for hours, leveled up akimbo so 2x x13s is much fun, as are the 59 cal and .45. shredders.

Some odd stuff going on for me on Series X, paid for Battlepass and then getting tokens by playing games, but my token count has been showing as zero so couldn’t use them and then tonight suddenly my XP after a match was something like 900000 and all my tokens appeared at once. rolleyes

Cold War was a buggy pile of turd and this is continuing the tradition.

Token bug is well known across all the platforms, if showing max tokens it's worth shutting down the game and restarting the console, it's works on PS not sure if same on Xbox

I did restart my Xbox as frame rates had dropped, that must be why the tokens suddenly appeared.

I like the new warzone map but I've gone from being OK at the game to awful. I'm not enjoying the gameplay so back on multiplayer.

Here's the problem. Core is awful. 6 shots and no kill, they turn and shoot you once and you're dead. The replay shows they get 4 or 5 shots on you. it's happening every night. I always play hardcore, but the game mode is a cesspool of camping. It's the campiest COD for years. The pace is so slow, the maps are large and it's full of back of the map floor huggers. It's actually designed to favour camping over run and gun.

I was in a game last night and it was worst game I've ever played. Farm 18, a good run and gun map. One guy was on the roof the whole game and another on the floor with a sniper. No matter where I spawned, I was in one of their sights. I hate that you can't see if you've got a kill, who it was or if you're team killed, who did it.

It's just broken and not finished. I was on with mates last night and we're going back to Vanguard until they fix it.
