This is my take on the MW4 beta, especially regarding the Warzone side, but covering the game as a whole. I'm bringing up the issues that bothered me, and I really hope @InfinityWard, @RavenSoftware, @CallofDuty@CallofDutyCM@gawdgriggs@kcaaj can see this and reconsider.
and hope this can reach channels that could support this, @ModernWarzone@charlieINTEL
1 - Iron Sights Shaking like MWII (2022)
It's unbelievable we're back to this stage. I really believed we would get the aiming/shooting feel from MW19 (which was peak CoD in this regard), but we've reverted to extremely exaggerated visual recoil on all weapons, making it impossible to see who is in front of us.
2 - Visibility
Back to the MW19 reference—while not perfect, technically speaking, visibility was flawless. Today, myself and many others are having a hard time seeing enemies. I don't know if it's poor optimization or intentional, but it completely ruins the feel of gunfights.
3 - Warzone HUD
I know you at Infinity Ward are addressing a lot of things, but you can't just accept everything a part of the community asks for (especially Black Ops fans). The Warzone HUD made me feel like I was in BO4— it feels like a downgrade, with zero of the characteristics I and thousands of others expected from an MW game: less arcade-y and more polished.
From what I see, the entire WZ community is unsatisfied too. Not to mention the trailers are lightyears ahead of what the game actually is, and right now the visual quality is quite cartoonish, which is not something I expected from an MW title.
4 - Aim Assist Ridiculously strong.
Even after the tweaks in the 2nd beta, it's something that has bothered the community since crossplay was introduced. If we have CoD on PC, we need AA nerfed by at least 50% to keep things balanced and bring a HUGE portion of the Mouse and Keyboard (MnK) audience back, so we can feel included.
5 - Tactical Sprint (in Warzone)
I understand the change in MP. The player base is divided between MP and WZ today, but I wish you guys would differentiate the two. From what I see in my region (Brazil - the largest CoD player base outside the US), we all want Tac Sprint as the default in Warzone. Please consider this.
6 - SBMM
Last but not least, the way SBMM currently works just doesn't make sense to people. For the whole community, it's very simple: Ping is King, and that should determine the matches you find. It's that simple. I hope this reaches some of you @CallofDuty. If all of this were addressed, we could be looking at one of the best Call of Dutys of all time.
There is still time.
Black Ops 7 is officially dead
Modern Warfare 2019 has more players on Steam than Black Ops 7 and Black Ops Royale combined
This is the Call of Duty that people really want. Take notes, Activision
