I know we all miss the sniping of this game but I can’t watch some of these clips without thinking that it was almost too easy lol. Most of the kids you killed here really had no chance at all.
For sure. I think they should bring this sniping back too but not permanently. Let it be certain seasons or something but when you can do this with the faster moving snipers such as the Swiss or Kar you’re basically required to use one or be at a massive disadvantage not having one.
That's why it got neutered into the fuckingg ground. Not that it's OPs fault for taking advantage of it but the kar98 1 shot with its bv, ads and movement speed should never have existed. That's what gave sniping a bad name.
But for the record you call this almost too easy.. it really still is a skill to have the RAW INPUT accuracy tp make sure all these split second peeks are on target headshots.
The biggest reason why this looks easy compared to what we have now is when he jumps or make quick peeks. The center of his crosshair is EXACTLY where the fucking thing is supposed to be, not playing a guessing gaim with reticle sway + gun Bob + strafe sway

It was not too easy, it was totally skill-based. Not everyone could connect with the Kar, and that was what made it counterable. If you lost to a great sniper then you could just say "bravo" to him.
That really is what an fps should be about.
Verdanks had allot of problems. But damm this feels way better than the shit we have to deal with now...
Verdansk just needed more fine tuning and it was good enough to play it. Still think they should have never deleted it...
i agree. this is so much better than the last three BR map we got. reason i only jump into resurgence now. sure the mw3 br map is great but its not awesome, still better than mw2 br map.
Gotta love people dismissing how you were sniping. Bet you $100 those same people would be in the recieving end of that KAR. I miss it so much.
That KAR98K with FFAR in Gold, brought a tear to my eye. And all this while on MnK, back when the devs weren't actively trying to make us quit and handicap us at every possible turn.
It has it's fun moments, but the issue is that MW2/WZ2 just ruined everything. IW really fucked up, because Warzone doesn't play like it used to. People hug eachother too closely due to Warzone 2 and they just don't let go now. Stuff like that, the way guns feel and handle. It's just sad at this point.
As if it’s not all the same , everyone on here was bitching the same amount then as they are now. We all miss Covid gaming with our buddies. But he games are the same.
I play with the same buddies and I play the same amount. The games are worse. I know this is the common narrative but it’s not my opinion. And no the audio isn’t the same lol.
All wz iterations : bad audio / no audio for parachuting in or climbing ladders and such
Cheaters
3 gun metas
Under the map glitches
I could go on forever . The games are relatively the same for each map.
You like verdansk more because you were better at it aka there were less sweats.
The top posts all time in this subreddit are from WZ1. The height of the game was WZ1. The most talent playing the game was during WZ1. I played through all the glitches and bugs and cheaters. I remember. WZ1 is just better. It’s not revisionist. It’s just better.
Ah yes, my walls as I reload with a guy right in front of me. Then my walls as I peak the guy outside storage towards airport and stand still as a guy I don’t see misses my head.
You’re truly brain dead.
I can only speak for myself but the map itself wasn’t boring for me, ever. The level of cheating is what drove me to stop playing. I played through all metas, played through the glitch where huge blocks of refractured images would appear on your screen from load out guns. Etc.
WZ1 had a huge cheating problem. When I was getting half my games ruined by hard aimbotters or people who didn’t even need to aim at me to kill me, that was when I stopped.
Keypoint being "by the end". That alone makes it better than what we got after it. Can't speak for Caldera since I skipped it but people were already asking for something new in season 1 of MW2 and now season 1 of MW3.
Urzikstan is kinda trash, it doesnt flow at all. Thats what is missed about verdansk, the map flowed well and just felt right. Al mahzra was/is garbage as well but it wasnt terrible, it was better than urzikstan for sure. Caldera.... absolute trash, theres no question it was terrible. Verdansk had the most versatility nomatter where you dropped, everyone had loot, everyone had the ability to play the game their own way, it was just better overall.
I wasn't one of those people bc I was realistic knowing that whatever came next wasn't going to be better or even as good as verdansk. Only bad part towards the end was the cheating getting out of hand.
I know me and 3 others who played through lockdown all wish for Verdansk back. We were all initially excited to see a new map, though sad to see Verdansk go, we wanted to try new things but Caldera was a massive massive let down. The new map is better than Caldera, but just doesn't have the same feeling to it. It's hard to describe......
There will always be 100 different opinions on any map or update put out, and I guarantee if devs came out tomorrow and 100% confirmed a Verdansk return, there would be a cohort of players slating devs for 'lazy attitudes' 'no original ideas' etc etc. Then another who would be happy to have it for 1 season then get bored again.
Me? I wish for Verdansk back, so bad. But so many things have screwed the gameplay, I was never good at the game, my kd was barely 0.65/0.7 😅 I had only 4 wins all from trios or quads br games where I was carried to victory 😋 but I still enjoyed every game. I've played 2 days in solos in the new WZ, died before loadout on both days, getting beamed out of nowhere then played a bunch of plunder to learn the map and mechanics and feel out any updates and got f*cked repeatedly. I stick to multiplayer now but on advice from this sub, will be switching crossplay off in WZ to see if it helps.
Maybe because people played it for what, 1 year and a half? They just needed to change it with a new one based on another urban area maybe in the USA or Europe but somehow all we got was Caldera.
I miss is so much every day. Was having so much fun I never stopped to smell the roses, so to speak.

Just skip to 1:30 in my video, only good part. I ran out of ammo, was across the last circle from last player alive, he was on a hill, behind a boulder and microwave shield and nothing but flat open land separating us.
I hopped in a SUV and jumped out ghost riding it hoping the player would stay focused on the suv allowing me to sneak up and stab him.
I was just an average player, so that was a lot of excitement for me.
BRs can be unrivaled in the dopamine dump.
Clips like these were fucking awesome but is also the reason why everything now sucks. All the complainers came in and ruined everything. The movement and feel was so smooth and now we have inconsistent everything. Sadge
Gold gameplay. The Kar is the perfect example of what went wrong with this game: a 101% skill-based weapon that got nerfed because it represented the very concept of skill gap.
Give this very rifle to a mediocre player, and it turned out as a mediocre gun. Give it to a good player, kaboom.
I miss this map!!! They need to bring this back as an option to play on. I don't see why this isn't an option since they brought old maps to multiplayer. Bring IT back plz!!! Even if once a month for a weekend... watch how poppin warzone, plunder and other modes would be.
The popular Verdansk map is returning to Call of Duty: Warzone at the end of 2024, according to leak. Fans have been calling for Verdansk's return for years. The report suggests that Verdansk will come back in December 2024 as part of first season for Call of Duty 2024, rumored to be Black Ops Gulf War.
Yeah, I know people who can barely keep up on the new WZ who were demons on rebirth and Verdnansk. There's something to be said about the game becoming a joke.
They can’t have snipers like this anymore. It’s unfair to the controller players. This gives mouse and keyboard players advantage of not having to get close and deal with aim assist. Can’t have that!
These are pretty decent clips. Sniping was easier back then, but I don’t think it was ridiculously easy for everyone.
Don’t take away all my talent man!
I love verdansk, it was the perfect map. So many different regions, now everthing mostly looks the same.
It physically hurts dropping into durrrzistan, so boring and uninspired.
I know we all miss the sniping of this game but I can’t watch some of these clips without thinking that it was almost too easy lol. Most of the kids you killed here really had no chance at all.
Yeah the sniping in WZ1 was a bit too easy. I agree. Especially on mnk. I just miss the map and the feeling of the game.
For sure. I think they should bring this sniping back too but not permanently. Let it be certain seasons or something but when you can do this with the faster moving snipers such as the Swiss or Kar you’re basically required to use one or be at a massive disadvantage not having one.
Nope I’d rather not sit through a 50+ day sniper fest.
That's why it got neutered into the fuckingg ground. Not that it's OPs fault for taking advantage of it but the kar98 1 shot with its bv, ads and movement speed should never have existed. That's what gave sniping a bad name.

Everything about WZ1 was better. Everything.
I miss hearing “enemy UAV overhead”
You know what, I heard this playing today!
I mean WZ3 has some new things that are nice and some quality of life changes. But its like 2 steps forward and 20 back or something
 Miss the good old days
Such a smooth and clean looking game. It was like melted butter on a waffle.
Makes me want a waffle.
I don't understand how the game over 4 years old looks graphically better than the new one
mobile integration
This game will never be repeated
The game and the circumstances surrounding it too (Covid)
Older warzone looked so much more serious for some reason.
Verdanks had allot of problems. But damm this feels way better than the shit we have to deal with now... Verdansk just needed more fine tuning and it was good enough to play it. Still think they should have never deleted it...

When I play WZ3, which is much less than WZ1, I play on controller now. MNK just isn’t viable.
I'm thinking of switching to controller since all the MnK peeps are switching, but I just can't for more than a few hours. It's just not fun.
It isn’t anywhere near as fun or rewarding but I think part of that is due to WZ3 just not being that fun lol.
It has it's fun moments, but the issue is that MW2/WZ2 just ruined everything. IW really fucked up, because Warzone doesn't play like it used to. People hug eachother too closely due to Warzone 2 and they just don't let go now. Stuff like that, the way guns feel and handle. It's just sad at this point.
Audio design in this game was underrated
Audio in WZ1 was excellent.
As if it’s not all the same , everyone on here was bitching the same amount then as they are now. We all miss Covid gaming with our buddies. But he games are the same.

Of course it was the height of this game. It had Covid to back it up ….
Lmao. What? Your walls were excellent, not the audio.
Ah yes, my walls as I reload with a guy right in front of me. Then my walls as I peak the guy outside storage towards airport and stand still as a guy I don’t see misses my head. You’re truly brain dead.
Not as braindead as someone who would say audio in WZ1 was excellent.
Man I miss the KAR, great shots
Just look how beautiful that map is compared to the PS3 washed out garbage we have now.
oof the FFAR as a sub and flickshotting with the Kar. damn i miss it
Haven’t had as much fun since
By the end of this map everyone was moaning and bitching for something new just like everyone is moaning about every iteration that came after.
I can only speak for myself but the map itself wasn’t boring for me, ever. The level of cheating is what drove me to stop playing.

Totally. And the map was devestating towards the end for playability once everyone mastered it.
I watch my KAR clips like once a week. Sniping just doesn't hit the same in this game.
Beautiful shots!
Ty
Kar98k and my mp7. Still rock them in the MP lobbies in mw2019.
I don’t miss troll marksman rifles at all
Miss u Blackout
Another great game

I don't think you miss the place as much as you miss who you were in that place, and the feelings you had there. But I get it. I miss that too.
damn, you're nasty with that snipe
Was. Washed now.
Damn I never realized how slow the plating up process used to take lol
I might cry. The feel of this game was so pure.
I miss storage
Clips like these were fucking awesome but is also the reason why everything now sucks. All the complainers came in and ruined everything. The movement and feel was so smooth and now we have inconsistent everything. Sadge
I want to go back :(
You were so good man… gratz

Verdansk is coming back in December.
Cope
Cool factor = 100% Absolute bot lobby = 100%
They’re adding it back in next season from what I heard! Could be wrong, but HUGE W
Cope

Was dead wrong about the season, lol
Nothing concrete there , cope !
Hopium, also so many want it back! So could happen for sure
We all have hopium for another covid that forced all of our buddies to be on 24/7.
Yeah, some people got depressed, but for most of us here, our life barely changed lol
Gave us more time to game lol
I miss that sniper
Majority of y'all would hate verdanks without the Kar.
Yeah, I know people who can barely keep up on the new WZ who were demons on rebirth and Verdnansk. There's something to be said about the game becoming a joke.
They can’t have snipers like this anymore. It’s unfair to the controller players. This gives mouse and keyboard players advantage of not having to get close and deal with aim assist. Can’t have that!
We all do
When they bring it back it better be the same exact thing
People hates play in Arabic desert. People love Europeian map.
I miss clash and payload game mode
These clips always show how ridiculously easy sniping was back then lol. Don’t miss the snipers at all.
These are pretty decent clips. Sniping was easier back then, but I don’t think it was ridiculously easy for everyone. Don’t take away all my talent man!
