A recent post in a popular Call of Duty fraternity saw user vZion_ asking the community, “Is this deal worth it?” Having only played a few versions of the game, vZion_ sought real player experiences on a couple of key game elements.

Summary

  • vZion_ queried on aspects such as movement, maps, the zombie mode, and skill-based match making (sbmm).
  • The post ignited interesting discussions with a healthy mix of opinions.
  • Many users recommended trying out the free trial before buying.

The Good, The Bad, The Zombies

It’s an acceptable price if you like the MP and zombie’s mode.“, commented user sunqiller. Providing an unbiased take on the positive aspects of multiplayer and zombies mode. However, No-Ability6963 added a spice of wit by stating, “Not even worth to play even if it’s free”. Sounds dramatic? Well, every coin has two sides.

Story and Gameplay Reactions

Average_Lrkr provided a decent overview about the story and gameplay. They mentioned, “Campaign was a major letdown…Warzone is as fun as it’s always been. Multiplayer has been loads of fun…They could use more map atmosphere and soundtrack music but it’s overall enjoyable”.

Average Player’s Point of View

From the average gamer’s perspective, comments refined the sentiment. ZiggyTuzla suggested to “first try it out and then buy it if u like it”. User alp1ne, a busy dad, also added value by saying, “That’s pretty cheap per hour entertainment in my books.”

The culmination of this discussion shows that Call of Duty’s worth is subjective. From the importance of story, map atmosphere, and multiplayer fun to the sheer ‘per hour’ value of entertainment – it all boils down to the player’s preference.
