Soapbox, do games w Why would I buy this?

I wouldn’t.

But I know people who only play COD and Madden. So if that’s all you are ever going to play, I guess it might make sense to spend all your gaming money on it?

Thanks to modern video games being barely functional slop most of the time, I got into emulation. All these games work beautifully and I have a massive catalogue of high quality games, with creative contents that would not get made anymore today.

If you still play CoD nowadays then you are actively supporting the problem.

From time to time I’ll still look at their steam page during sales, because I’d like to play a blockbuster single player FPS where I can mindlessly mow down bad guys, with good story and production value.

But the price point and reviews always turn me off… Do you have a good alternative to recommend?

BigDaddySlim,

If you want a CoD game, pretty much any CoD up through Black Ops 2 is still decent, but only if Activision actually let’s the game go “on sale”. Halo games have a fantastic story (up until 5 at least) and the Master Chief Collection is usually on sale for $10.

Modern Warfare was peak CoD

ltxrtquq,

Which one? Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007), Modern Warfare 2 (2009), Modern Warfare 3 (2011), Modern Warfare (2019), Modern Warfare II (2022), or Modern Warfare III (2023)?

2007 but 2009 was good too

I’ve been playing with zomboid for over 10 years!!! Amazing that this is picking up so much steam after being so ‘mature’ already! But loving the preview builds!

The preview builds are exciting. I played it day 1 and remember getting excited over the corpse dragging mechanic

Salamanderwizard,

I wish it was on console so damn bad.

That’s why pirating AAA games is morally justified.

yes

I wish Steam would put the 3rd-party requirements nice and obvious above the buy button. Along with "uses AI content", "in-app purchases" and "always online requirement" banners too. And more too, every game should be shamed before users get to the buy button.

I want a Call of Doody game where you're running around downtown of a major city looking for a public bathroom while prairie dogging a big old shit kind of like Far Cry 2's malaria mechanic.

Lawnman23,

This is the way.

Rentlar,

With CoD BO3 extensive ability to be modded and workshop support, it could be theoretically possible.

treesapx,

I’ll support anyone who references Far Cry 2’s malaria mechanic. A game ahead of its time…

TigerAce,

I want to see a game where you have to pay rent on a server and you need to spend all of your time working to make in game currency to pay the rent otherwise you’re kicked out. But when you’re sick and can’t play, they will kick you out anyways. And the rent keeps getting up, but the monthly income does not. And when you need customer support they put you on a waiting list and when it’s your turn they say “wrong department, we’re putting you on another waiting list” so you will never get the mental help you need. Yeah, I would definitely play that game, I know I’m good at it.

  • TigerAce,

    The graphics. You need the newer game to be able to play with the rest because they have the newer version, and you want the newer version for the better graphics, but to be able to run it properly you need to buy the high end GPU’s. If yo don’t, you’re a loser, a sad poor person, because everyone else has it and you don’t. So you throw away more money to something completely shit. And children are very easy to catch in this scam.

    I don’t miss the crab claw pain trying to play with anything in the DS form factor and that d-pad placement looks rancid.

    yermaw,

    For sure you’d need to get grips immediately for it to resemble a controller.

    Buy the Call of Duty Warchest for $30 and play CoDUO with us. The best part about PC games is that you can still play the classics online!

    Just nabbed Necesse now that it’s out of early access; looking forward to playing with my kiddos :)

    I got it on sale for 10 bucks last year. Great SP. Lots of fun.

    TigerAce,

    That’s why I pirate. Even 10 bucks is too much money for these companies exploiting their customers. The only “downside” is no multiplayer. But I only care about single-player anyway :)
