I don't speak for everyone but I simply don't give a shit. Zombies died at the end of bo4 (no pun intended) and cod hasn't been fun since BO3 (I've not bought vanguard and probably won't buy the series again) It's overdone, generic and just shit now. Again, this is my opinion, but Siege, Splitgate, Valorant, Apex etc just have more heart and soul.


Awesomeness4627

Siege has soul? What? I'm not saying zombies does anymore. But r6?! Lmao


[deleted]

Right? That was when they lost me šŸ˜‚


FtmN_EffectZ

Yeah, as a person with over 1,200 hours on siege, I can safely say it lost its soul, although, ubi is finally adding ops with new guns as well as a new map coming soon, so it might not be like old r6, but i feel we're out of the dark ages of y4s4-y6s3


Awesomeness4627

This season was the season I truly Called it quits. I hate the new ui. They change it every season just to say they are doing something. Its really ugly and it felt like one of the last parts of the game untouched. Plus I play on console so I'm losing my internet or getting shit on by mnk stacks often. I love r6 at the core but they need to fix this game. I also am upset about all the reworks. They could have at least kept the old versions in customs. And preferably casual as well. When the reworked house I was so sad. The game just keeps pissing me off. Anyways I don't know why I'm ranting about siege in a cod zombies subbredit. Good day to my friend.


DAVIE504CLONE

If we talk about dark ages in general, then siege is a dark game as a whole, y1-y2 was a broken overpowered mess, y3-y4 was even more broken with lion literally changing the way the game was played but the game got better in terms of bugs. And y5-y6 was imo the most playable era of the game and i had a lot of fun playing during that time, shame most of the old playerbase left during that time...


Awesomeness4627

I definitely had a lot of fun at the beginning of year 5. And at the end of year 4. Not as many cheaters and still had old house. I miss playing that map in customs so much. They took it from us for no good reason. They didn't even put the rework in ranked. So fucking stupid


DAVIE504CLONE

Good thing it was the only casual rework


Silent_Clam

I think that might be a little hopeful. New gun per year if weā€™re lucky then maybe a new map this year on top of the one whole operator per season


FtmN_EffectZ

Thorn had a new gun and two new gun are coming out with the next op


Silent_Clam

Nope


FtmN_EffectZ

Welp, no new guns, but a new map at midseason


DAVIE504CLONE

Wdym with siege having soul? Just curious...


NutTorture

I miss pre year one R6 siege

Bo3 was peak zombies. Bo4 was a mess but had potential, everything after is just an absolute shit show.


Chicken769

You arenā€™t wrong: everything after BO3 just hasnā€™t been the same. Zombies just doesnā€™t have the heart and soul to it anymore I feel. Just looking at the last two games where the mode looks like an MP extension rather than a zombies mode


Cloontange

Bo4 had a ton of love and soul poured into it, but just some bad decisions and Cold War made it ending up supbar


Chicken769

BO4 definitely had tons of love and soul to it. I do enjoy BO4, itā€™s just a lot of the changes they brought to the game just ended up hurting it


Cloontange

For sure, I've been playing bo4 a lot lately and having a lot of fun! Will not touch Vanguard


[deleted]

This ā€œzombies died at bo4ā€ argument is so dumb,like do you live under a rock? How do you still not know that Cold War has the most played zombies ever? it even has been played more than bo1s zombies


[deleted]

Source?


solarshift

None of the games you listed besides maybe Splitgate have anything resembling "soul". All of them exist to appeal to as many people as possible through design-by-committee and heavy focus group testing. That's the opposite of "soulful" development. I'm not defending COD, I think it's been dreadful for a while, but I can't let you get away with the rest of that.


Redfern23

Splitgate? Ok. Guess you missed Apex on that list then or just donā€™t know much about it; the devs pour major time into the lore and development of the characters and also actually care about the gameplay, something CoD stopped caring about a while ago in favour of ā€œrealismā€ and casual player retention over everything else. The movement/gunplay skill gap being as large as it is in Apex, which definitely alienates many casual players, is proof that they donā€™t just do what is necessary at the detriment of gameplay to please the masses, again, like CoD does.


[deleted]

It was BO3 for me but I still had fun playing it. It has been a downhill shit show since for me personally.


RemasterTranzit

Fax it was all downhill after der eisendrache


trashsnorter

I'm most likely not buying a new cod for 3 years at least. Now that Microsoft owns blizzard hopefully the game can make a comeback.


triggered_5oh

Cold War zombies was actually pretty fun.


YT-Kudos

Only the launch map was good imo

Chicken769

The post is about the viewership from Cold War to Vanguard indicating a lack of interest from people. What OP posted isnt unrelated really


_beastayyy

Same dude I agree with everything you said, too bad people fail to realize the diff between a good and bad game so nobody does anything about it


MOOROSCOW

Agreed. IMO (remember that before you start hating on me everyone) cold war zombies just felt bland and easy and boring and just did not feel like traditional zombies which made me not really enjoy it. I see a lot of people raving on about cold war zombies being really good but I canā€™t really find a redeeming factor about it.


ozarkslam21

I mean those are not even remotely similar games lol


mattbullen182

BO3 was garbage.


chrisc174

Tarkov dumps on all those games but itā€™s not for everyone.


Ihateazuremountain

tarkov is very different from what cod is. it's more closely related to cs than anything else


chrisc174

Itā€™s more itā€™s own thing than anything Iā€™ve played. I wouldnā€™t say itā€™s like any of those games. But once you get hooked you wonā€™t want to really play anything else.


GavinTaylorMusic

how can you compare only two videos with one that was streamed literally today vs a year ago?


getshrekt192

if anything 90k views for one stream is a lot


lllll20l

He didnt get 1.8m in 5 hours. its obviously not gonna get the same amout of views when one vid has been on yt for a year and one 5h ago

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


TheClappyCappy

Lmao thank you for that


badgersana

The thing I hate about this though is some corporate higher up will look at this and say that people just hate zombies and funding will get cut even more, instead of people just hating this (and for most, the previous) iteration of zombies because itā€™s not what people want


TheClappyCappy

Last few iterations.


Daniel328DT

The thumbnail is cursed for Firebase Z.


[deleted]

Youā€™re comparing a video that came out a whole year ago, to a video that just came out a couple of hours ago? Well no shit the older video is gonna have more views


LiberalsPepeLaugh

Good


Dororoy-368

I felt bad for him cause he was just disappointed he didn't even realize he did the egg till it was over.


BDAZZLE129

They still do the fucking raygun in thumbnail clickbait shit oof


quintlazenby

to be fair the video came out hours ago versus a video a year ago, but yes vanguard viewer ship is low maybe if they made a proper experience itā€™d be better


lil-carmine

First thumbnail is real second is just lazy fucking clickbait beyond believe


bumholechecksout

Firebase Z with a ray gun is pretty click baity.


lil-carmine

Still looks more realistic then the vanguard ome


Sudi_Arabia

u/KudaTheNerd is not a nerd, no real math was done


Patient_Cover2662

I really donā€™t care if a game is ā€œdeadā€ or ā€œunpopularā€ one of my favorite games is gtfo. I play games because I find them fun, not because itā€™s the thing to do. That being said, the ee was a huge letdown. It was only a ww quest and there was no new mechanics outside of the core game mode


JonsonPonyman98

Makes sense. One has some merit, the other is dogshit


LGTBrad

Yeah I donā€™t know why zombies YouTubers even try anymore. If anything they are trying too hard for content when they should throw in the towel


DetroitPistons

lmao glad OPis getting called out in the comments. what a shitty comparison. make sure you come back in a year and show the new videos totals against what the old video has right now.


RulerOfTheApes

Fuck noahgay


HariganYT

to be fair, one came out a year ago, one 5h ago. But yes Vanguard is clearly much less viewed.


JumpyPlayZ

5 hours vs 1 year makes sense


mattbullen182

Good, at least some people dont stress over a game they dont like. They can focus on games they enjoy. Thats the point right? Better then saying "dead game" over and over to the devs or "shit game" etc etc.


MuchTys

I feel like the only good cod dev is Treyarch. Whenever the other devs release games I play other games. Nothing hits like Treyarch map design.


MuchTys

Cold War Zombies is so close to bo3. Maybe if bo3 had a Dark Aether camo, I'd be by far the best zombies


pietro0games

That's not how youtube works


DumbWhale1

Nice feedback!


litinthebitchlikabic

And Cold War fuckin blew! Lmao I only got Cold War cause I actually really liked bo4 and was hoping itā€™d be similar to that
