In this episode, J and Subone reflect on their holidays and dive into a retrospective of Warzone 2. They discuss the issues with movement and gun functionality in the early stages of the game. The crowded airspace and the delay in using streaks are also highlighted. The hosts express their dissatisfaction with the weapon balance and the lack of viable SMGs. They also touch on the reception of the Al Mazrah map and the introduction of ranked play. The episode concludes with a discussion on the problems with shields and Semtex grenades. The conversation covers topics such as riot shields and flamethrowers, overall thoughts on the game, issues with audio, current weapon metas, disappointment with Modern Warfare 2 guns, artificial skill gap in the meta, and a discussion on aim assist. The conversation revolves around the debate on aim assist in Call of Duty. The hosts discuss the misconception that aim assist is overpowered and argue that it is necessary for controller players. They also highlight the majority of players using controllers and the need for balance between mouse and keyboard and controller inputs. Possible solutions, such as skill-based aim assist and skill-based matchmaking, are explored. The hosts emphasize the importance of game development and creating a gameplay style that caters to both inputs. They conclude by acknowledging Call of Duty's history and its focus on controller players. Your hosts: J007tv: https://twitter.com/FakeJ00712 https://www.twitch.tv/j007tv SuboneKD: https://twitter.com/Subonekd https://kick.com/subonekd Takeaways The movement and gun functionality in the early stages of Warzone 2 were problematic, with slow movements and random recoil patterns. The crowded airspace and delay in using streaks were frustrating aspects of the game. The weapon balance in Warzone 2 was not ideal, with SMGs being particularly weak. The Almasra map received mixed reviews, but ranked play was generally well-received. Shields and Semtex grenades were seen as problematic and in need of balancing. Riot shields and flamethrowers can be effective in certain situations, but they have limitations and can be countered. The game is in a good position overall, with improvements made to address previous issues. Audio in the game still needs improvement, as it can be inconsistent and affect gameplay. The current weapon metas have a divide between easy-to-use guns and high-skill guns, creating an artificial skill gap. Aim assist is a contentious topic, with advantages and disadvantages for both controller and mouse and keyboard players. Aim assist is necessary for controller players and is not as overpowered as some claim. The majority of Call of Duty players use controllers, making aim assist an essential feature. Balancing the game for both mouse and keyboard and controller inputs is crucial. Game development should focus on creating a gameplay style that caters to both inputs. 00:00 Introduction and Holiday Recap 03:00 Reflecting on Warzone 212:00Issues with Movement and Gun Functionality 19:00 Crowded Airspace and Streaks 26:00 Discussion on Weapon Balance 32:00 Transition to Warzone 3 39:00 Ranked Play and Map Reception 45:00 Weapon Meta in Modern Warfare 3 47:00 Issues with Shields and Semtex 47:54 Discussion on Riot Shields and Flamethrowers 55:09 Overall Thoughts on the Game 58:00 Issues with Audio 01:11:16 Current Weapon Metas 01:20:23 Disappointment with Modern Warfare 2 Guns 01:25:11 Artificial Skill Gap in the Meta 01:27:05 Discussion on Aim Assist 01:28:47 The Debate on Aim Assist 01:36:18 The Majority of Players Use Controllers 01:41:34 Possible Solutions and Skill-Based Matchmaking 01:48:53 The Need for Balance and Game Development 01:53:18 The Choice of Input and Call of Duty's Focus 01:54:18 Call of Duty's History and Conclusion

Welcome to episode #107 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, the focus remains on ranked play. With it now being out for a few weeks and pushing a month, many players are starting to say that this is becoming one of the best ranked systems that we have experienced in COD for quite some time. We would absolutely agree with this, as we cover our experience, as well as our current rank. Despite this being the case for us, we do cover some big issues that could come down the line, as well as the difference in experience from console to PC. With that being said, we also cover the news of Nintendo getting involved in COD, as it will release on their platforms in the future. We close out with some more leaks and news regarding the sequel to MWII, and give our thoughts. Let us know what rank you are so far, and what your goal is for season 2 ranked play! Are you generally playing solo, or do you have a squad of 3 or 4? Has your ranked play experience been similar to ours or different? Give us your thoughts on Nintendo coming into COD, as well as MWIII. Are you excited with the recent developments, or did you wish they went in another direction? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week!

On this week's episode of the Bot Lobby Podcast, Fifakill joins the podcast duo Katie & Gojj to discuss what NEEDS to happen to make Warzone 2 a successful BR. Even though Fifa's takes are from a Pro Player's POV, he understands that pro players DO NOT make up a majority of the player base. So he also offers suggestions to make the game better from a casual players POV as well. While Caldera seems to be well received by streamers, he understands that it is much harder for casual players to enjoy it, due to it being difficult for them to make it to the end game. Fifa also offers his take on the potential of Ranked Play and how it could help balance out the ever controversial SBMM and bot lobbies! ━━━ WATCH EVERY EPISODE LIVE: https://www.twitch.tv/grandmastergojj WATCH THE REBROADCAST: https://www.youtube.com/botlobbypodcast ━━━ Check Out Fifakill: Twitter - https://twitter.com/Fifakill_ Twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/fifakillvizualz YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3FC3r0WXoqTEjb3MIAumVA TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@fifakill?lang=en Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fifakill_/ ━━━ Check Out Katie Bedford: Twitter - https://twitter.com/WorldsBedford Twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/katiebedford YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5SXaNS6kNS5jma84VKRj8g Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/WorldsBedford/ ━━━ Check Out GrandmasterGojj: Twitter - https://twitter.com/GrandmasterGojj Twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/grandmastergojj YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/GrandmasterGojj TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@grandmastergojj

Welcome to episode #56 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, the grind of season 2 and of everything vanguard has still been our top priority. With this though, a lack of updates has still left some major game modes unplayable, and riddled with bugs that are causing problems for anyone trying to play the game. What is the reasoning for these lack of fixes to the game, and new content coming to the game? If the game is going to rise up to being a better game than it first was, these updates need to come in ASAP! Do you think Vanguard has been lacking updates and fixes as well? Have you noticed these issues that we discuss, and the lack of updates that have come to a game that needs them now? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!
