What the fuck kind of mod is this? I thought MW2 was fucking untouchable when it came to modding since fuck activison for that

>>15471577

it's not mod, it's a mode that was in by default

>>15471577

It’s a game mode doofus. MW2 had a ton of useless game modes and 3rd person was on a lot of them

>>15471584

>>15471655

Sorry I never touched COD trash after modern warfare 1

>>15471657

Your loss, MW2 and BO1 were top tier.

>Modern alternative to SOCOM?

No chance in hell. In fact, SOCOM already went the 3rd person COD route and it ruined the entire ip. So you can see just what would it look like when you take a fun game like SOCOM and pretend you can turn it into COD without making it shit.

>>15471697

Next thing you'll say is you like battleroyale and eating crayons.

Both were, unarguably, successful games. Deal with it, friendo.

>had a lot of fun with SOCOM 2 and 3 when I was younger

>series falls off the rails and gets buried

>would like to give it a revival chance but don't wanna go back to console controls for shooting

shame

>>15471711

Successful doesn't mean it's good, it just means it sold well. The only good CoD games are CoD 1 and CoD:UO. Call of Duty: Finest Hour, Call of Duty 2: Big Red One, are okay, the rest are shit. Period.

>>15471740

4 and WaW were decent mostly for the gimmicks and actual new content.

Rest was poorly designed garbage coupled with copious amounts of reused assets.

>>15471750

A fps game is automatically shit if it has have both mechanics:

>regenitive health

>two weapon limit

CoD 1 and it's expansion pack UO have neither of them, thus it's a good game. Finest Hour and Big Red One have a two weapon limit but do not have regen health.

>>15471763

CoD 1/UO had the third slot locked to garbage tier pistols and regen can and was done decently well in CoD 2/4/WaW.

But sure

>>15471763

>two weapon limit

>automatically shit

not if the game actually takes a realism or semi-realism approach. Also depends entirely on how the game is being balanced. Some games benefit from carrying all your weapons some don't. A shooter with a tactical theme would be ridiculous if you could carry 8 weapons at once because then you wouldn't have to shake up your game plan to make the most of the gear you've brought. Or better yet you can make your game plan based around what gear you want to bring

>>15471572

I played this mode a lot and it wasn't good. SOCOM was better.

>>15471792

Perfect Dark Zero was a weak sequel, but I liked how it handle weapons. The total amount of items that you can carry is determined by the weapon size. You can carry 4 pistols, 1 shotgun+1 pistol, 2 smgs, and 1 rifle + pistol.

>>15471572

I had no idea that there was a 3rd person gamemode in CoD. That's neat. I almost want to play it.

>>15471812

The game is still garbage don't bother

>>15471812

>>15471828

Seriously you'll have a more enjoyable experience with Umbrella Chronicles

>>15471775

>regen can and was done decently well in CoD 2/4/WaW

It was shit in 2 4 and WaW, WaW was only worth playing for nazi zombies and that mode wasn't worth the full price of the game. Also nazi zombie's mode got stale as well.

>>15471792

I said "if it has have both mechanics", not "if it has one of these mechanics". Typically class based shooters have two guns and a special ability and melee. In general if it's not a class based shooter, a four weapon limit is the sweet spot, but three is acceptable. Most of the time you'll never feel the pinch of the four gun limit, but when you do, you feel in a right way. The only time when regen health works is when it just only heals you out of the danger state. Like FEAR, the evil within 1&2, and Resident evil 7. None of those games have a two weapons limit either.

>>15471837

>I said "if it has have both mechanics"

My bad, wasn't paying enough attention

>>15471828

That's why I said almost. I never really got into CoD. I remember wanting to get the first one, but my parents were in the "violent video games are bad" camp and wouldn't let me get it. I'd love to have a CoD 4 gamenight with this Star Wars mod sometime, though.

>>15471837

COD is class based shooter but most people cant grasp this if it is not written on the box.

>>15471690

>deathstreaks

>even more cancerous killstreaks

>ninja teleport knife animations

>painkiller

>infinite noobtube/rpg garbage

>zero recoil weapons

>even worse instagibbing than previous titles

it was inferior to MW1 in every way.

>>15478795

I wish CoD would go back to its roots and get rid of the kills/score/deathstreaks, perks and all the gimmicky 3-lane maps shit. Vehicles, a proper class system, less weapons but better tuned.

>>15478796

CoD 4 I can understand, but is BC2 bad? Shit seems like fun, though nothing compared to 2142.

Third person is for spastic peasants who can’t aim
