I just wonder how they react at the office at EA or Activision when Battlebit got populair.
Its just funny and sad to see that these huge companies just don't learn.
For example, I play Call of Duty since MW2. What they do to Warzone is a great example of how to destroy a player base and its community. I mean, after Verdansk (I know there is some nostagia with that map) there was no map like it. The unlocking system for weapons is a grindfest for someone with a actual job and the abilities with lasers (!?) are just so stupid.
Comes all down to money I guess...
They shrug since they'll never make as much money due to no microtransactions.
BUT DONT YOU WANNA PLAY AS KEVIN DURANT FOR ONLY 30 REAL WORLD DOLLARS??? -Activision, probably
Yeah I played Warzone Verdansk/Caldera a lot, spent many hours on it. Verdansk will always hold a place in my heart. Warzone 2 shits on all of that so bad they had to remake the Steam page to have better reviews (it didn't work).
My friends and I that play CoD have moved to playing CoD Mobile on Gameloop and have a much better time there than in MW2 and Warzone 2.
