    Damn, and here I thought the most interesting thing about the game was that you can sprint backward.

    Absolute nonsense.

    If they’re gonna stream you higher res textures with an internet connection anyways, there’s no reason they can’t just do that as planned so anybody with a connection gets that, but then have super low res textures for the base install/disc that’s usable offline, since that’s still better then not being able to play.

    And/or they could just make downloading the higher res textures for local/offline play an option.

    This is just anti consumerism, and in a just would would be liable for a planned obsolescence lawsuit.

    And hell, the multiplayer should be playable offline too, even if it’s you loading into an empty map or just LAN play.

    Always online has historically always been a hit with gamers, especially when playing a single player mode. /s

    Texture streaming will be mandatory this time ?

    The option already exists in current MW but it’s deactivable

    Besides the campaign it’s a multiplayer game so the always-on is not too cumbersome for me but I’m against mandatory streaming, pretty sure it will create a lot of issues

    I can understand it for Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024 given the « we are creating the whole world from satellite and AI »..but not CoD

    They really need to fix the sizes here for their engine, it’s not sustainable..

    Gotta collect and sell data somehow

    I’m sure their sales will tank when the flood of reddit protest thread start.

    Bro if you buy Call of Duty just to play the campaign you are getting robbed my guy.

  12. Young-Pizza-Lord

    Not a single COD game campaign justifies a full 60-80$ price tag alone.

    Everyone will still buy this shit up.

    developers/publishers: “Hey we love DDOSing ourselfs and have huge connection to servers issues during first 2 months of the game so good luck trying to play singleplayer game because multiplayer gamers want to play while also good luck trying to play multiplayer game because singleplayer gamers want to play at the same time”

    Now there’s the Activision we all know and love… well not love..

    I feel like I see headlines like this a lot, and then they change just before launch.

  20. RedHawwk

    That’s annoying…but let’s be realistic what percentage of people does this effect? We’re all online anytime we play at this point anyways.

    I’m curious what that means when servers are shut down for it in X years.

  21. Khalmoon

    As much as I wish people would care, people will mindlessly buy. Some people only play cod and only spend 60-70 a year on games… maybe 140 including madden/2k

  22. Twin_Titans

    Cool – guess this is two years in a row of not buying CoD

  23. guywhoclimbs

    Is anybody actually surprised when big gaming companies make these bad decisions? Gamers have proved time and time again that they will buy anything and support these practices with their money.

  25. Zactrick

    Oh, I guess won’t be buying black ops 6.

  27. FelopianTubinator

    I’m not okay with forced texture streaming. That’s going to cause a lot of jank with people who don’t have the highest internet bandwidth or are on wi-fi.

  28. FloppyVachina

    The best way to play call of duty is to not play call of duty.

  31. calamnet2

    Why do you people to continue to buy into this garbage?

  32. BlinkDodge

    Ah yes, that way they can control your access to the game no matter what medium you purchases it through.

  34. MaapuSeeSore

    Won’t matter , the 99% won’t see a difference or be angry about

  35. Quick_Somewhere2934

    I mean…. streaming extra textures from online should just be optional by default.

  36. NewDamage31

    Now we can have packet loss and lag spikes during campaign missions 👍🏻

  37. BlazingShadowAU

    So basically nothing has changed, Activision just stopped pretending they care about the campaign players.

  39. Timmichanga01

    Glad i dont play this stupid franchise

  40. mrwhitewalker

    And I will continue to not buy their games
