But if it means a shift in infrastructure as a nice accompaniment to CoD’s current build, why not? Yet if we look at this in the long-term, from a complete series perspective, how will this affect the spread of the entire player-base and as a result, would this ultimately alter the possible player-count for Infinite Warfare’s activity across its many iterations? It’s unclear whether or not the next entry will follow along similar lines and continue to support previous-gen consoles, but while Ghost’s PS3/Xbox 360 releases could be regarded as developer uncertainty on the popularity of new consoles at the time, its safe to say seeing Black Ops 3 not a total eighth-gen title was boggling given the sizeable sales figures of both PS4 & Xbox One units by 2015. As such, if this remaster goes one step further and evolves into a full three-game series collection, will this only spread the player-base further? Thinning it into numerously ongoing titles and thus, raise an interesting debate on whether past or present ideals are in fact the more popular go-to for an annual multiplayer shoot-fest?

The difference here is that this won’t be a new entry, but a return to what the series was at that time. As such, it opens up a possibility to not only reintroduce a setting that many could perhaps have forgotten, but also introduce the days without robots and drones and aerial-dominating killstreaks that only embellished the “rich get richer; poor get poorer” mentality entries like Modern Warfare 2 got pressingly wrong. Modern Warfare’s design was a lot simpler. Its 3-5-7 kill-streak system may be deemed minimalistic by recent standards, but back then it didn’t over-complicate or make 90% of player’s strive to simply getting a tactical nuke, so predictable (Harriers, AC130, bo-WEEP bo-WEEP…done!).

That’s not to say I disapprove entirely with the series’ recent trend in relying solely on mere three-route, choke-point maps with blatant kill areas. Put simply, there’s nothing better than playing the Sniper; picking a perfectly unnoticeable spot to lie down (or at least what one might consider perfect) and playing the waiting game. Yeh apparently snipers aren’t meant to take cover and wait — what a stupid idea. In essence, it’s been a while since the humble Sniper was approached with as much the same consideration as those who saw themselves the SMG bearer or Shotgun wielder. Seeing the more spacious maps with a visual touch-up here and there — not unlike the return of a simpler kill-streak system — could offer an interesting question on how design factors in, if at all, to the annual Call of Duty game.
One significant advantage Fragpunk offers is that it works on Linux out of the box. While Valorant can work on Linux, the FPS Game Skins doesn’t offer the support natively. You would need to use alternative means to get it to work. Valorant makes up for this by Riot’s effort to release the game on mobile devi
I’ve speculated over the past week whether a remaster of previous Call of Duty titles is necessarily a bad thing. But whether Activision’s late (it has to be said) jumping on the remaster band-wagon should be regarded as universally “lame”, the truth is, I don’t see it as something objectively bad. If anything — and this is coming from someone who’s always open to discussing the many, troublesome issues with Call of Duty as a model, let alone as an iteration-by-iteration video game — I find the idea, notably interesting. For a series that has shifted from World War 2 to modern war and now to future warfare, could this be an early sign of where the series may end up turning in later releases further down the line? Yes you can argue Ghosts tried a return to a contemporary-ish aesthetic to counter the ever-growing futuristic direction Black Ops & Advanced Warfare brought forth.
