Watched first 15 min of the campaign.
Looks really old.
I love WW2, and maybe later on it becomes something more interesting, but it looks like it was taken straight from cod 1.
Graphically it didn't look great, with the beach explosions being nothing more than small smoke puffs.
But a gameplay perspective, looks kinda standard. 1 man army taking the entire beach.
I'll watch a bit more though and wait on reviews.

Honestly yeah, you know at this point if you want CoD, and what you want from it.
Gotta address the second point though. Reviews don't start at 10 and subtract points. At least not the way most reviewers do it. I don't know why people still assume [game] lost [x] points for the bullet point negatives.
Saw Ign's video of the zombie mode and it looked lackluster (specially because the person playing choose to stick to the melee weapon, stupid choice if your showing the mode to someone...), but the video about an infiltration mission seemed cool. Basic COD "shocking moment" mission, but I always liked those (I'm a big fan of "No Russian").
I'll wait for the reviews, hype seems to be at an all time low. I really wanted to go back to the roots :/

They didn't break it, they bought early copy from retail.
Btw why isn't the preload up yet on PSN? The game is out in few hours no?
Mandatory patch is pretty annoying. I left it downloading when I went out but it's only done like 25% so far. Fuck sake.
It is for me on the UK PSN store at least, I bought and pre-loaded the game two days ago.
It is! I pre-ordered digitally before I left for work today and it started downloading right away.
Except they don't drop on the beach during the battle.
It's D-Day +3 when the whole area is an Allied stronghold.
This video shows it well:
So good. And the spawns don't seem to flip like crazy compared to Hijacked with this USS Texas map.
All I got is a lousy theme, no pre-load or patch or anything :(
Roughly the same on PS4: 49GB install and 9.5GB 1.04 patch. There's apparently no option to launch the game without the patch (or it's my disc that's still installing).
I had honestly forgotten I had preordered this when it showed up for 40€ lol.
How the fuck is it that I have no willpower when it comes to games and consoles? I'm sitting here thinking about buying it after not even really enjoying the beta. I have a problem. I almost fucking preordered an X from Best Buy.com last night, too, even though there isn't a single exclusive that interests me. I actually DID preorder, and then frantically canceled before it was too late. Fuck me and my video games addiction.
I'll be ok.
I'll be ok.
I think someone said embargo lifts tomorrow? Correct me if I'm wrong.
How are the COD "influencers" enjoying it so far? Seems like many were pretty down on IW (from what I can remember)
Play on the term "Boots on the ground", since this is the first CoD in 3 years to not have some kind of enhanced movement system (jetpacks, wallrunning, etc.).
I mean, it looks pretty fun. Basic boots on the ground cod. I'm in for a purchase.
That OT title is damn good.
I'll be giving this SP a whack because WW2 and probably sell it on quickly while it retains value. If its half as good as COD2 I'll be happy.

Gotcha. Thought it was referencing The Rundown starring The Rock. "Moos on the grind". I figured that was way too obscure to be what it was referencing ;)
Right, patch downloaded. Going to try a little of MP and see if it's as unbearably twitchy as IW, which I thought was fucking dogshit.
Yes but servers are up for early copies and embargo is over for streamers/youtubers
Disc versions (there's always people who manage to find someone selling early copies) or people from Australia, New Zealand and Asian territories where it's already November 3rd.
Even the lesser COD games offer a ton of content.
Campaign (I've replayed some of these 10+ times). Zombies. Multiplayer.
The only COD that i regret buying was IW. And that didn't have anything do with lack of content, but my hatred for that setting. Hell, I even played through BO3 campaign a few times because, while it didn't make much sense, it was still OK to play through.
I received the game earlier today and have played the first three campaign missions. Haven't touched multiplayer yet.
So far excellent campaign. Everything you'd expect from a Call of Duty. Beautiful, smooth visuals. Great audio and general presentation. The missions offer great variety, are fairly lengthy and have featured some really impressive set piece moments. The D day opening was really impressive although the actual beach assault was too short. Felt like a missed opportunity. The characters are interesting and likeable. Enjoying almost everything about it so far.

Played a few rounds with the Turtle Beach headphones I'm reviewing; holy shit this sounds amazing. MP is waaaaay better than IW. More simple and back to basics. Still way too much progression crap to sift through but it's not as twitchy and I don't feel like I died unfairly so far.
As someone who despised the maps, spawn system, and the TTK in the beta... how is the final game?
What do you think of automatic health regeneration no longer being a thing? Does it make the game better or worse? Is it a pain in the ass to get to the guy who gives health packs?
