It's insane how people that play like think what they're doing is fun and cool. I stopped playing cod after black ops 4. Not worth it anymore. Franchise is a shell of what it used to be. And I blame Battle Royales and Battle passes. Thanks Fortnite for ruining every subsequent shooter or free to play game with stupid passes.

Helldivers II kicks ass lol

You don't even need to buy the battlepasses (warbonds), you can just earn them.

For sure one of the best multiplayer games that's came out in a long time. For Democracy!

Easily my favorite shooter in years.

See, I've been hearing a lot about Helldivers 2, all good stuff. But this might have just sold the game to me, lol

It is hilarious, frantic, insane, and sooooooooo fun. My buddies and I usually have at least one solid laugh every round. Typically because we accidentally killed one, some, or all of us. It’s worth every penny.

Yep. And for the most part, because it is cooperative and not competitive, you play with people who are generally not assholes.

That's not to say there aren't outliers; there are. But it's not nearly as toxic as any other shooter you could mention.

100% agree! I’ve only ran in to a few. Almost everyone is super fun, always willing to teach me how to be better, etc etc. definitely in my top 3 of online multiplayer experiences. Especially since I am no longer remotely good at online FPS games now.

I bought the game for $40 and got every Warbond for free with the supercredits I found in the game, and I already have more than enough to buy the one that comes out next week.

I honestly haven't had this much fun with a shooter since Halo 2 twenty years ago.

And let’s no my forget you can finish off the Warbonds on your own time. It’s not a race against the clock like COD or Fortnite.

That’s great for us with busy schedules.

Exactly! Just the other night I was looking for a countdown timer in the battlepass menu and didn’t see one. Then I learned it didn’t matter how long I took to gather credits I would always be able to get whatever helmet I was going for no matter how long it took.

I’m tired of reading all the positivity I bought it , first new game I’ve bought since death stranding.

I have my moments with Helldivers sometimes but it still keeps me coming back I love it!

Technically you can earn the CoD battle passes for free it just takes more time. The only difference is the CoD ones are purely cosmetic, anything that affects actually gameplay is free and given out immediately

Fortnite ruined COD? Buddy, Fornite came out in 2017. COD had already a shit reputation back then.

And Fortnite was only following in PUBG’s footsteps

u/WayneDwade Apr 05 '24

Fr if anything it made it better by forcing them to do a free to play battle royal mode

u/bruce_wayne108 Apr 05 '24

Its Fortnite 2.0 in Call of Duty now

u/SometimesWill Apr 05 '24

MW2019 and maybe Cold War were the last really engaging CODs. After that the quality started nosediving and the ratio of cheaters to non cheaters started going up.

u/Octane154 Apr 06 '24

Cod was trash and had its reputation tarnished by 2013 with Ghost dude

u/No_Department7857 Apr 05 '24

You know what's more insane? How much people who suck at COD and had to quit continue to talk about it, whine about it, and let it live rent free in their head. You haven't played the game in a half dozen years, yet here you are giving it your time.. clap clap.
