The popularity of "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" is still rising.
Especially after most players have experienced the story and then entered multiplayer mode, it's become unstoppable.
The number of players online in multiplayer mode is growing at a terrifying rate.
Its fast-paced style, completely different from previous FPS games, instantly attracted a large number of FPS players.
Moreover, compared to the previous "Rainbow Six: Siege," "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" is clearly much easier to pick up.
Just grab a gun and go, plus there's no economy system – you can use any weapon you want after unlocking it, as well as a rich attachment system.
This allows players to fully experience a different kind of fast-paced fun.
Combined with the killstreak reward system, the game is even more fun.
After getting a killstreak, you can summon a drone to scout the enemy's location, as if you have wallhacks.
After killing multiple people in a row, you can even call in bombers to bomb a certain area.
Compared to other traditional FPS games, the pace of "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" can be said to be incredibly fast, and also more exciting.
It also fully demonstrates the role of modern weapons.
This directly took Modern Warfare's popularity to the next level.
At the same time, it made the gaming industry drop their jaws in amazement.
Of course, there aren't many modes in the game at the moment. The normal quick modes include team deathmatch, domination, search and destroy, and kill confirmed.
In addition, there is a PVE mode, similar to a multiplayer challenge mode, where you can continue to challenge campaign scenarios.
And there's also a survival mode, where players defend a point alone or in teams, facing waves of enemies until they die.
In addition, Lucas didn't include the Ground War mode.
Because this mode is just… ugh, and combined with the nature of killstreak rewards and the map design…
It's basically just a sniper war, with people camping in rooms for ages.
So that's the game experience for those campers.
......
With the media blitz and players praising the game like crazy.
The popularity of "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" remains high.
Meanwhile, Atari's "Operation Storm" has inevitably been brought up repeatedly.
After all, who told that game to challenge "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" to a showdown before?
And it's also the latest product of Zeus and Cosmos Next-Gen VR.
At first, the promotion of the two games was neck and neck, but as "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" was released first.
Everything changed completely. "Operation Storm" entered Death Mode and even chose to delay its release.
Now there's still some time before the official release of "Operation Storm."
But whether it's players or the gaming industry, most people think it's unlikely that this game will make any waves.
No matter how you look at it, "Operation Storm" is far inferior to "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare." If there's any advantage to be said, then Big Bell's company only has platform advantage.
After all, "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" is supporting the CosmosVR platform.
And "Operation Storm" is landing on the Zeus platform, so those Zeus platform players have no choice.
Howard Warcha, the lead designer on Atari's side, is also very depressed.
"Hang in there! It's normal for 'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare' to be popular now, but the multiplayer and single-player modes have already been released. When Operation Storm is released in July, the popularity should be almost gone. A wise man hides his talents and waits for the right time, a gentleman gets his revenge after ten years. Be patient!" Howard Warcha muttered two Eastern sayings to himself, and then closed the Nebula Games information.
Out of sight, out of mind. As long as he doesn't see it, he hasn't lost.
About a month should be enough time for the popularity of "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" to cool down a bit slightly.
By that time, if "Operation Storm" is promoted so and the attention grabbed so…
It definitely can't compare to "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare," but the quality of "Operation Storm" itself is still good.
With a wave of hype and promotion, we'll be good to go again.
Atari and Howard Warcha are both making their own plans.
It doesn't matter if we can't compete on strength, we'll just avoid it.
The idea is great, but accidents always come so suddenly.
A new mode, 'Warzone,' is launched.
And there's also a promo CG video on the official blog.
This also made many players curious.
A promotional CG video was made for a brand new mode?
Nebula Games wasn't this extravagant when they opened multiplayer mode!
Making CG animation at every turn?
Of course, complaints are complaints, but you still have to watch this video as soon as possible.
Above the city of Verdansk, an armed helicopter is flying.
"Attention, the landing zone is hot!"
The next moment, a voice that excites players rings out.
"It's time, let's go, a battle of one hundred and fifty people."
A familiar character with a cigar in his mouth appears inside the plane, Captain Price.
And next to him are Soap and Ghost.
As the cigar is flicked out of the window, Soap, Ghost, and Captain Price bump chests, and a soldier on the armed helicopter next to them gives a thumbs up. The three jump out of the hatch and open their parachutes.
At this time, the entire city is in ruins, and countless armed men are exchanging fire.
"Go! Go! Go!"
As Price, Soap, and Ghost landed in a stadium, the intense exchange of fire began. The M1911, a familiar pistol, but it's difficult to resist the enemy SMG fire. Fortunately, there are many rifles around the ground. Pick up a gun and start fighting back.
The next moment, the sound of an armed helicopter rings out. An armed man wearing sunglasses laughs wildly: "Let's begin!"
The machine gun on the shooting position fires wildly.
"We have to move!"
Crouching down to avoid the machine gun fire, Captain Price, Ghost, and Soap head towards the garage.
Accompanied by passionate BGM, the three clear the enemies on the way.
"Keep pushing!"
Getting into a jeep and avoiding the shooting of the armed helicopter in the air, the three-man team desperately flees.
Countless people in the city are also exchanging fire crazily.
"Die!"
The camera instantly switches to a distant hilltop, where a sniper in a ghillie suit is lying there aiming at the jeep.
With the sound of gunfire, the jeep's tires are instantly blown out.
The jeep, which was traveling at high speed, lost control due to the blown tire, flipped over, and at the same time, the screen went black.
The next moment the picture appears, but it is in a prison: the Gulag concentration camp.
"Welcome to the Gulag, if you can defeat your opponent, you can regain your freedom!"
Amidst the cheers of the audience, Price, Soap, and Ghost each defeated their opponents, and then were sent away from the Gulag prison by helicopter.
"Welcome back, Task Force 141, but… it's time to go to work!"
From the plane, the three of Price continue to parachute back into the city, and at this time a dark green storm sweeps in behind them.
"Gas! It's gas! We have to get into the safe zone!"
"We have to move, now!"
Price quickly shouted loudly, and then took a jeep to kill to the center of the city again.
The three were unstoppable, killing all the enemies along the way.
Finally, in the midst of the sky filled with poison gas, a helicopter came to the sky above Price and the three of them, lowered the ropes, and took the three back to the plane and left the city that had been covered by poison gas.
As the armed helicopter flew away, a line of subtitles appeared in the center of the screen.
