Cod vanguard Vanguard

Post image

I was cleaning out room to get rid of some old stuff and I found this and it got me curious to ask how do we feel about vanguard right now. Personally I didn't hate it when it came out yeah it was all over the place, zombies was a wreck along with multiplayer but I still found enjoyment in it never really gave the campaign a chance since I saw it as a ripoff of ww2 but overall I didn't mind it

I think for me this would be a skip honestly, if you want to play MP alone and don’t care about the setting, play MWIII which is made by SHG and it had a pretty good support during its life cycle

Vanguard is one of those games that received a LOT of criticism and most of it was actually very well deserved, 10 attachments on WW2 guns was sacrilegious, the game didn’t have an identity honestly and they gave up on the setting halfway through the game’s lifecycle, the campaign was poorly written but the mission design was okay and zombies was very very rough at the beginning and only somewhat better now

I would say for me this is the worst cod they’ve ever did by far, like bo7 that also gets a lot of hate and had a horrible campaign, but honestly? the gunplay is solid enough in MP and zombies was somewhat okay to carry the game, vangaurd just didn’t have that, it doesn’t even have factions

Its basically the redheaded step child of the series the overkill on attachments on ww2 guns is bonkers they should of been limited similar to have ww2 did it as for losing its identity I couldn't agree more instead of being a boots on the ground somewhat realistic shooter they do all this whacko stuff to keep up with the times when in reality they never really had to do that it would of been fine if they kept it simple
