I’m enjoying this a lot more than I did the beta.

Yes the movement feels very odd, I just put it down to playing with a DS4 vs an Elite controller.

Movement feeling any better?

Yes, it feels a lot better. Very classic treyarch (Black Ops 1/2) feeling.

Will be giving this a good go over next few days.

I'd rather have a battlefield game to play, but oh well. Hoping enjoy it enough to be my pick up and play for short bursts of mp

Mines preloaded and ready once drop son off at school I'll have quick half hour on it before work, hope it's good the reboot of the franchise with Modern Warfare 2020 was excellent

my last two games I got steam rolled by obvious parties of people jumping on, it was rough as hell lol.

Oh and the UAV is unreal in this game.

Had a few games yesterday and mostly enjoyed it. Hopefully the SBMM doesn't kill it for me.

Got to level 10 last night (this morning) before logging off, had some good games. I still find the running and sound strange, the running is very floaty and the sound really quite...basic? That said I can hear footsteps so that's a good thing. I have played Warzone religiously for 7 months so I am very well used to that game's dynamics and sound.

Great, thanks.

I might get it on PC tbh. I don’t like playing FPS games on a big screen. I struggle to see everything in my FoV.

I'm still downloading but I thought the FOV was adjustable this time around?

Mark1989 · 13 Nov 2020 at 09:29

I managed to get in two games this morning enjoyed them both, did increase fov to 110 though

Played on map called Miami and can't recall other one but was small and snowy liked both of them

Andybtsn · 13 Nov 2020 at 10:15

I tried FOV on 140 and i felt like I was on drugs, not sure how people can handle that speed.

Hi all just a quick question. Sainsburys is selling the xbox one version of cold war but on the box it says series x too. If I bought this version would it be the same as if I just bought a proper series x version (which is more expensive elsewhere)

Thanks!

No, I’m pretty sure the normal version plays on series X by BC. No next gen upgrade.

Thanks for clarifying it for me. I won’t get in trouble by buying the wrong copy now

monkeyspank · 13 Nov 2020 at 12:01

you can buy an upgrade on the store.. not sure how much exactly, $10ish or so

Mark1989 · 13 Nov 2020 at 12:02

Has to state cross gen for it to give you the enhanced version

Tbf Activision made it a mess with how many editions this game has

antijoke · 13 Nov 2020 at 12:03

I almost installed the wrong version when you could preload, I then noticed the X|S version and got that installed

Yeah, when you have confused gamers as opposed to the casual audience you know you have done it wrong

Picking this up today. Getting a physical copy in case I don't like it. Really enjoyed MW and heard folk say this is a backwards step

chrismscotland · 13 Nov 2020 at 12:21

So do we think its worth buying? Didn't buy MW but have spent far more time in Warzone than I'd like to admit....
Looking for something new for my Series X!

Crashed my console twice now. Once in single player cinematic, once in menus
Also, when playing a round earlier, really felt like it was stuck on 30 fps - not smooth at all.
