The graphics and colours are amazing! Maps amazing. I find Miami for me is the hardest map. I also find that l don’t mind playing hardpoint, it some how feels different to MW! In MW l find it a bit boring.
I have noticed some of the things you mentioned. I only threw a few grenades but it felt pretty quick to me. They are a little slow to detonate but if you hold for it for a bit then nothing to worry about. I also thought they were easier to control the throw!Quick thoughts about the alpha...
- Frag/C4/Grenade-style equipment throws are slow. Like fuck... slow. Both animation, and the actual execution. I go like "oh, c'mon. I fucking threw the bomb!" many times because of the delay.
- I like the faster movement, but it feels heavy. I don't know what it is about it, it feels clunky. Like the character is struggling to move...?
- I like some of the weapons, and I like how customizable they are. But hit detection is stupid. Half of the time, you're not hitting the target. I swear, I see the bullet arrive at the person, but it goes through the person without making a hitmarker... WTF? It's worse than Modern Warfare.
- I love the little details in the game. Like the rumble feature - it rumbles when a helicopter killstreak is active. I'm thinking this is a test for PS5's 3D Haptics. Another little detail I liked is the pool area in Miami. Makes me wonder what other small details is going to come launch day. Keep going, Treyarch, I love these details.
I can’t comment on other COD games as l usually only do campaign. I’ve just compared to MW and to me feels better especially throwing grenades. Not sure what BF is either in the terms of what you’re speaking?I do agree that this game feels a lot more "tanky" than previous CoD games. Almost a BF type feel.
Thanks for explaining, no l don’t think l have played Battlefield before! This heavy movement thing you talk about l hope l won’t notice if l play again, l probably will now it’s been mentioned but l hope not.BF = Battlefield. I'm not sure if you've ever played that game but it goes for a more "realistic" feel which means your soldier feels heavier & has clunkier movement in general.
The thing is, Modern Warfare's Alpha had me excited for the game, but with Cold War, I can't stand the clunky player movement... Like what the fuck were they thinking...? If I wanted Battlefield, I would get it, I wanted CALL OF DUTY. I do like the large scale battles, like the Armada map. I like the swimming, it gives the gameplay some kind of variety.Thanks for explaining, no l don’t think l have played Battlefield before!

Anyway it seems like a lot of games have negative bits but overall just from those days of play l am impressed. I was also very disappointed when it said l had until 10am the next day but it finished half 6 the night before.
The top thing l hated about the game was that enemies can still jump really high above you. It made me laugh tho when l watched the kill cam, my gun was shooting in a circle up in the air, completely missing target!
