CoD pros can\u2019t believe Call of Duty Mobile launched with Ranked mode Call of DutyCall of Duty fans were surprised to see CoD mobile feature a ranked playlist at launch \u2013 a feature which is often delayed by months in main entries to the series. The community was shocked after discovering that a ranked mode would be available to CoD Mobile users immediately, unlike previous titles in the franchise, which had to wait for months after launch before the mode was installed. The most recent example is Black Ops 4, where players had to wait for over four months for ranked play to be finally be added, and when the playlist was eventually added on February 21 there was backlash from the community that it was somewhat incomplete. Two-Time World Champion, James \u2018Clayster\u2019 Eubanks expressed that the release of a competitive ladder on CoD Mobile\u2019s launch felt like a slap in the face.

I’ve actually become so jaded that it’s expected at this point, but c’mon man \u2014 Clayster (@Clayster) October 1, 2019 Former pro Joe \u2018MerK\u2019 DeLuca replied to Clayster, sharing the same sentiment explaining his thoughts on the CoD Mobile ranked play release. \u201cReading the comments from everyone who has played it definitely hurts the soul a bit.\u201d MerK If anything to me this just says, if we want to we can, but I think we all knew that.\u201d Clay then suggested that the usual delay in other CoD\u2019s ranked titles could be due to a lack of resources dedicated to the competitive side of the game, \u201cThey know they can, they just choose to not allocate enough of a team to make it what it could be,\u201d the Call of Duty star expressed, revealing his disappointment. Yeah, that’s the biggest part for me. We know they can, they know they can, they just choose to not allocate enough of a team to make it what it could be. There’s like 10 things we need from a ranked playlist and can never seem to get all 10 at once, I’m just so disappointed. \u2014 Clayster (@Clayster) October 1, 2019 Popular YouTuber, OMGItsBirdman, was also among the first to share his surprise with the news by highlighting how long it has taken past title to introduce Ranked Play: \u201cCall of Duty mobile has ranked play on launch but the last 3 actual Call of Duty games took 6 months to add it in.\u201d Call of Duty mobile has ranked play on launch but the last 3 actual Call of Duty games took 6 months to add it in \u2014 Anthony (@OMGItsBirdman) October 1, 2019 However, FaZe Clan\u2019s Doug \u2018Censor\u2019 Martin took inspiration from the new CoD release, which features all of the best weapons and maps in CoD history, and proposed that they do similar for console and PC. \u201cImagine if COD took the greatest maps, guns, camos, killstreaks and compiled it all into 1 video game.\u201d the YouTube star posted, before suggesting a similar approach Fortnite\u2019s content updates, \u201cthen added consistent DLC weekly and got rid of the yearly COD cycle and just worked on this? Re-brand the entire franchise to literally \u201cCall of Duty\u201d. You see Fortnite changing gaming. Just copy what they do and add your own twist. It can\u2019t be that difficult to do this. \u2014 FaZe Censor (@Censor) October 2, 2019 Censor\u2019s suggestion would likely allow for more time to be allocated towards competitive and with the Call of Duty franchise league set to get underway in 2020, it is probable that many pros would favor that approach. Although it is unlikely to happen, at least for a few years, with Modern Warfare and the new Treyarch title already in development, fans of competitive CoD can only hope that ranked play can be added sooner some of the previous iterations. As of now, it is unknown when ranked play is set to release for Modern warfare, as developers have hinted at an \u201caggressive post-launch plan\u201d for the Infinity ward game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
