>Halo, a laughingstock and a shadow of it's former self, Infinite is doomed >Overwatch, steadily in decline and has become the Sweden of video games >Gears of War, once the gold standard of testosterone and has been reduced to a cheap soi-ridden uncharted knockoff
And then you have...
>Call of Duty, returning to it's roots and becoming more mature without becoming tryhard or giving up it's slightly absurd nature and taking itself too seriously >Doom Eternal, continues to return the franchise to it's former glory as Testosterone Simulator 2019 and sequel to the best singleplayer FPS of the 2010's after the franchise was in a long recession/hibernation, main character is a Gigachad
Halo is still hailed as the game that redefined console shooters, especially in an online market. It was never a contests of first, it was about what can be done better in one neat package.
>Doom Eternal, continues to return the franchise to it's former glory as Testosterone Simulator 2019 yikes
Jackson Morales
>Halo is still hailed as the game that redefined console shooters that's not something to be proud of

Did you know you can just say words and still say nothing? I didn't until I read OP
Nathan Garcia
It's a billion dollar industry. As a publisher it fucking is.
Bentley James
You don't remember how multiple shooters at the time were still trying to figure out how to map shit on consoles?
William Bell
What did Hamo bring to the industry/genre? Srs question, never seen anyone playing it around me.

Slow, plodding FPS combat that normies could handle.
Unlike most slow plodding combat at the time that had the excuse of mostly being simulators like Flashpoint.
Doom 2016 reintroduced everyone to lightning fast fps gameplay while still making it fun and not "le zoomey zoomey XD". Titanfall 2 did it good as well.

I feel like CoD is sort of the WoW of FPS. It's a tragic tale for sure. Both weren't the first entry in the genre or the most ground breaking, yet they managed to become the most succesful series and what everyone else in the market tried to become for a period (from 2007 to possibly even now). The worst part is that other developers know they can't compete with CoD, so they simply left or tried to be too innovative for their own good (Titanfall for example).
It's weird, but I feel like in some regards CoD has tried to get away from the same issues they championed into the norm for the genre, from regenerating health to linear maps, for example coming back to WW2 or no more regen health, but at the same time they still seem to bring more issues into each new version. What's fascinating of all of this however, is the fact that, despite all the flaws every CoD game has every year, it's still a solid product sales-wise and it works as it should. Just as sport titles, CoD just reharshes most of it's own formula every year, and while this just doesn't work for every game out there, it's just odd how they can get away with it.
Yea Forums loves to hate how every CoD is the same, and I agree, but I have to give props to IW, Treyarch and Sledgehammer for having consistently given a product, with huge ammounts of money behind it, every single year. Other studios would just crumble over the pressure, but they are like treadmill that doesn't stop for anyone. It's more than likely that MW will be succesfull, matter of fact, I think it will be the most succesful CoD game since MW2 I belive, but it's amazing how IW can remake the whole ballistics system, use a new engine and still it wont fail.
How can CoD fail or flop? Will it ever die? Halo is most likely dead, Doom was in hibernation for 10 years, Quake is dead, Battlefield will die soon enough from DICE incompetence, CS was dead for a long time until the e-sports revitalization, meanwhile CoD lived through most of this
Liam Brown
You can see that exact same phenomena happening in the widely successful MCU in theaters year after year despite people chocking about "superhero fatigue". So you're asking if it will ever die? No.
Daniel Harris
What is wrong with you
Jaxson Ortiz
The last Uncharted game was unironically more open-world than most open-world games.
You're off by four years there. I'm 28 turning 29 this November and I'm not blind to the fact that Halo has been lackluster for quite some time now but it certainly isn't a shadow of its former self multiplayer-wise although not as inspired. The campaign however took a nose dive.
Hunter Barnes
Halo became obsolete when conlose and PC shooters became homogenised There's not enough "meme potential" on Halo for younger audiences to give a fuck about it
Christian Moore
What the fuck is meme potential?
Nathaniel Reed
Halo doesn't do any one thing to an amazing extant, what it does is create a comprehensive package with customizable and scalable gameplay, sandbox map design, and social features. I can't think of a single game from the past five years that has been on par with the social features that Halo 3 and Reach had at launch. >segregated competitive and social >playlists based on game modes >ranking system 1 - 50 >cosmetics earned through achievements >private matches with custom games and map editors >theater mode >file share and file search Also, Halo has an incredible soundtrack.
halo has plenty of meme potential. Plop fortnite emotes into Halo and have a spartan floss, congrats
Zachary Lopez
What the fuck are you on about Doom Eternal is just as bad as the others since its got a layer of irony draped over everything.
Alexander Sanders
Two leaked story summaries both claim that God doesn't make an appearance and that it's not the angels themselves that are enemies, just a bunch of rogue/evil angels.
Carter Richardson
>implying Halo was ever good >implying Overwatch wasn't Sweden: The Game since release >Gears of War, once the gold standard of testosterone >Call of Duty "returning to it's roots" implying that it ever deviated from its shitty formula Please fuck off to /r/Fortnite, you underage retard.
Halo is shit. It's been nothing but a downward spiral since Reach was released. >Plop fortnite emotes into Halo and have a spartan floss, congrats yeah see it's faggot shit like this that makes everything worse
Parker Parker
if halo was truly bad, surely your quake brain would be able to win it everytime
>Ninja >Dr. Disrespect >Shroud >Summit1g >not a single one of them started with UT or Quake >they all started with Halo
Lincoln Russell
Nice, 4 people. FACTUALLY PROVEN HALO PLAYERS = GOD
Kayden Ramirez
Dr. Disrespectmywife is good at video games? I thought he was just a meme man
James Green
That's kinda based
Jack Perez
well, I think the other approach is better Quake and UT players didn't transition well into modern shooters. this might be due to the fact that the skill set required in Quake and UT (3d movement and timings) is different from other games, or maybe you could take the reductionist route of "all modern fps are thrash and easy"
As far as I know, the most succesful players (in monetary and award variables) are CS players.
Xavier Roberts
it's the potencial to become internet memes, the most effective form of marketing
>halo has plenty of meme potential. Plop fortnite emotes into Halo and have a spartan floss, congrats putting memes in the game isn't the same as becoming a meme like le rip and tear shit
that's just a generic meme format with a Halo skin
Dominic Foster
what defines meme potential? what gives doom more "potential" anymore than halo? Just because Doom was given le marketing meme doesn't mean it has more potential.
Halo didnt redefine shit. You are thinking of half life.
Luke Sanchez
Literally who?
Oliver Taylor
Wanna know how I know you're a newfaggt?
Jeremiah Green
Even normies' grandmothers knew about Halo. No one outside the gaming community knew or cared about HL2, much less 1.
Oliver Lewis
Being popular doesnt mean it redefined a genre. It has heavily marketed by microsoft as their flagship game and console seller
Isaiah Torres
Yeah, I bet that's why every shooter from 2004-2010 was being dubbed the "Half Life-Killer"
Elijah Johnson
What did halo do that redefined the genre? It didnt introduce anything we had not seen before. It was just a safe nicely polished 3d first person shooting game
And even being a "dead" franchise Halo 5 sold more than Doom 2016! Impressive isn't?
Connor Ramirez
>Halo, once shit and now somehow still shit, infinite will be shit >Overwatch, steadily getting even shitter and has become the king big shit of video games >Gears of War, once the gold standard of shit has been reduced to even shitter shit
And then you have...
>Call of Duty, returning to it's "roots" and becoming even more shit while still not trying at all >Doom Eternal, absolutely shits over the original two and markets itself as old school while simultaneously committing almost every modern game design sin and is not the sequel to the best FPS of the 2010's because that's Titanfall or fuck even Superhot
The only thing more clown than the industry are your standards. There hasn't been even a remotely good fps release since Team Fortress 2.
Did you seriously try to use multiplayer as an argument? Everyone knows doom 2016 is a single player experience and the mp was a joke because it was handed off to some shitty minor dev that literally worked on cod games. It really shows how they did. m.youtube.com/watch?v=UL1_ht1EdAU Little did you know halo mp is a pretty big joke as well. No wonder so many braindead monkeys find it fun. And i guess you didn’t talk about campaign because you knew that was trash.
Look at his fucked up hand, he's clearly a paulsie. Probably can't even eat right
Gabriel Wood
>Crowbcat Every Halo had bullet magnetism and Halo 5's wasn't even that bad compared to Halo 2 or CE, in fact, Halo 5's bullet magnetism is considered the most balanced in the series, but oh fuck I forgot, your ignorant underage brain didn't know about that! I wouldn't be surprised if your first DOOM "experience" was the Brutal Doom wad, literally made for retards and fags like you.
Carter Allen
>Doom >A decent videogame in an industry with no innovation >funded by the greediest and grimiest people in the industry What did they mean by this?
Ethan Perry
>Halo 5's wasn't even that bad It had the worst bullet magnetism in the series you stupid nigger, not even halo 3's casual ass system holds a candle to it.
Adrian Phillips
Yep, that’s why halo is ass. Braindead monkey you like bullet magnetism you actually tried to justify it lolololol. I’m an adult and played the original doom.
Nolan Price

Cooper Hernandez
Is Doom reddit now?

>Quake and UT players didn't transition well into modern shooters. this might be due to the fact that the skill set required in Quake and UT (3d movement and timings) is different from other games, or maybe you could take the reductionist route of "all modern fps are thrash and easy" Did you ever stop to think that like 97% of the people who've played Quake 3 and UT99 haven't played the goddamn things in at least 15-20 years? That maybe they wanted to play new games and not the same one nonstop? Over the next five years on PC alone you had CS, BF1942, Soldier of Fortune 2, and the first Call of Duty.
Owen Gomez
y-yeah.... It's not like the OG Doom had aim assist! r-right doombros????
Adam Sanchez

Ethan Long

Grayson Russell
You didn't even fucking play the game then youtube.com/watch?v=THtf7b123BA There's a shit ton of videos comparing Halo 5's magnetism against Halo 2 and 3's, just search you ignorant fuck.
Dylan Edwards
I'm unironically buttblasted about his this piece of shit ruined porn art and provided Hi-Rez with a blueprint for another lazy assfaggots fotm cash grab.
Doom is still hailed as the game that defined shooters
Bentley Taylor
Except nudoom is complete and utter trash and it's one of the worst fps games we've seen in decades.
Tyler Turner
how can doomfags even recover?
Hudson King
Nothing like the speech impediment retard telling me how halo works in 2019. Halo 5 killed he guy in less than 10 shots while Halo 3 took a reload. You're a fucking retard
Noah Robinson

Kevin Fisher

Brandon Mitchell
Are you fucking retarded there's no way the halo 5 ar is 3-4 times faster at killing than the halo 3 AR.
Andrew Russell
Nudoom is shit. Amid Evil, Ion Maiden and Dusk are all infinitely better. And none of those are as good as Quake or classic Doom. Nudoom is such dogshit it might as well not exist.
William Reyes
Said console games. You complete moronic troglodyte
Mason Cruz
you forgot that doomfags are literally skinny and frail looking dudes and nudoom is the only game where they can self insert as a "stronk" and clearly not overpowered protagonist
Levi Rivera
shit that was for also no, dont pirate it, the game is dirt cheap right now (on origin) and the multiplayer is really fucking awesome
Halo kills Doom, nuDoomfags need to face facts, nuDoom is jus repetitive shit.
Jace Fisher
anything popular is reddit to someone for the sake of collecting (you)s
Jack Diaz
No one even remembers Doom.
Logan Rivera

Isaiah Gomez
Look at all the nuDoom cucks seething over this image.
Brayden James
Yeah, so cool how they just filled the game with bots in an attempt to make it feel like battlefield
Ryder Morales
>all franchises/teams comprised of people who had nothing to do with prior games from the franchise/company Halo 5 being bad doesn't make Halo 1 or 2 bad. Gears 5 being boring doesn't make Gears 1-3 bad. Overwatch went to shit within weeks of launch. Modern Warfare does not replace CoD4 or redeem Infinite Warfare. Doom has never had a bad game, yes I said it.
Kevin Green
Halo a game with great potential and some of the most engrossing multiplayer of all time
Doom horizontal aiming, after the initial doom has done nothing to innovate in the genre, just the same old shit, retards who can't handle multiplayer love it
Chase Hall
Why is everyone having hope for Halo?
Easton Wright
Wanna know how I know you've never played titanfall?
Chase Cook
Because it's good.
Jayden Thomas
Why would I play a multiplayer game with bots? Do you think I'm 85 IQ like you?
If they're not a concern at all to the player then why are they in the game at all? For show? So you admit that they're trying to bolster the feel of multiplayer with AI?
Andrew White
We're getting Metroid 5 next year so it's going fine.
Ryan Reed
>Call of Duty, returning to it's roots and becoming more mature without becoming tryhard or giving up it's slightly absurd nature and taking itself too seriously Nah, it's just CIA/Mossad-funded Syria intervention agitprop. Sorry.
Doom's about gameplay and that fucking awesome soundtrack anyways dood
Anthony Nelson
Fucking retard.
Those aren't meant to provide competition. They're not even really bots. They're just minor AI characters that you hunt and kill to earn score towards character power-ups and Titans. They're basically the gameplay equivalent of those little mob units in a MOBA.
Doom is already powerfull the minute John Carmack released the source code.
Ian Green

Does anyone else find Doom extremely boring? Feels bad because I bought it day one and really wanted to like it
