Wonder how WWF circa 1998 feels then, or anybody else using the painfully mediocre name "Warzone".
The bolded could not be any further from the truth...battle royale has proven it is here to stay...the "big 3" (Fortnite, PUBG, Apex) are all doing well. And now Tarkov is coming up as well.
Era lives in a bubble.
A quick look on the Xbox most played list in the US- Fortnite is number 1. Apex is 4. Pubg is 11
Pubg peaked at almost 600k users on steam today coming in third. And I'm pretty sure that the 2 games ahead of it are free for steam users.
....... ya battle royale is dead lol.
I think it's coming tomorrow:
Halo 5 is 4 years old. I'm pretty sure they don't care. Infinite gunna drop with a unique highplayer count mode. COD can have warzone.
I think it's coming tomorrow:
Whoooo get hype
I think it's coming tomorrow:
I think it may stay for next week, they probably want to spread it a lot with the streamers/youtubers. In the same way that EA did with Apex
They are on an extremely tight schedule atm, if this is actually standalone they will likely just add Treyarch to it when 2020 releases
Didn't a bunch of streamers like Dr Disrespect have an NDA event last week for something?
The space is what's making me install/uninstall from time to time... it's ridiculously massive.
Doc won't be online at all tomorrow due to an NDA event.
If it is dropping this week, it's gotta be Thursday or Friday.
Oh, so it's very possible hahaha.
And the leaked image looks like those images taken at closed events.
Theres infected already. An infected ground war is coming later in the season.
Edit: stupid me forgot the massive zombie mode from the other games. Lol
Can we not have yet another Battle Royale?
A ranked play mode is what I want more than yet *another* goddamn battle Royale.

Honestly battle royale is old news, I'm just waiting for the first AAA game to go after Escape from Tarkov money.
It's not IW who's making the BR. It's Raven Software from what i've heard.
Probably cause MW uses so much disk space and if it's standalone then there's no need to keep MW if you hate it
I'm excited. MW plays great but i'm not interested in standard MW modes. This being standalone and f2p hopefully means it will continue to grow and get support for sometime.
No AAA developer is going to put out a game nearly as hardcore and punishing as tarkov, it would have to be diluted to a point that it wouldn't be comparable. Just the lack of UI elements alone in tarkov wouldn't happen in a wide release AAA game, people would complain about shooting teammates/ not being able to see distant enemies from a couch/ not knowing when you've killed someone. Most of what makes Tarkov fresh is that it deliberately ignores handholding design and has a sink or swim learning curve, this kind of thing is niche and not desirable to a AAA company who is spending millions of dollars on development and need to reach the widest audience possible to justify the cost.
I'd argue the core concept itself is not AAA friendly. PvP experiences like Tarkov are always going to be harsh and unforgiving. That's just the nature of PvP looting.
Just look at The Division or Sea of Thieves. They've both struggled for years to make the PvP experience more casual friendly and it never works.
I'm not so sure. Hardcore/tactical shooters have really been gaining popularity in the last year or two. Obviously a AAA take on Tarkov would be watered down (how would the input even work on a controller?), but I think it could be successful. When PUBG first got popular, I thought battle royale was too punishing for the average player for it to break out of the audience it already had, but look where we are now.
Tarkov isn't a BR, but I do wish that whatever this mode is was much more Tarkov than PUBG.

People said just about the same exact thing about MMO's and then again about the Arma/PUBG type stuff.
There still most likely is some AAA studio that goes for it and gives it ol' good AAA treatment of simplifying everything down to extreme extent.
MW 2019 multiplayer is a mess, and the obviously Battle Royale map repurposed they had in Spec Ops was really anonymous. A BR mode would force IW to make a sensible TTK, better weapon/item balance and other adjustments the game desperately would have needed in its multiplayer too. Hopefully this is indeed F2P, while I own Modern Warfare I have little faith a BR mode slapped onto it would have had enough players in a year or two from now.
Raven was making the BR,
They supposedly designed the Spec-Ops map and IW decided to reuse it for that mode and Ground War maps.
That and it's a game that is league's ahead of anything right now in terms of gunplay.
Some company may spin something like that but that gameplay and realistic map design is league's ahead, interchange is probably the best map I've played in years.
