OpTic\u2019s Crimsix explains why he\u2019s not buying into the MW4 hype Crimsix\/ActivisionOpTic Gaming CoD pro Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter has revealed why he is not getting \u201chyped\u201d over the next Call of Duty game, despite all indications pointing to Modern Warfare 4. Will the next Call of Duty game be Modern Warfare 4? As is always the case with a future CoD game, rumours and speculation begin in the community just a few months into the previous game\u2019s life cycle. Although nothing has been confirmed by Activision or Infinity Ward yet, all signs certainly seem to be pointed towards Modern Warfare 4. From an ex-Infinity Ward developer confirming that the next title will be \u2018Modern Warfare\u2019, to NFL stars dropping hints about it, the community has grown in excitement recently as they look forward to a fourth installment in the incredibly popular Modern Warfare series. However, one prominent community member, two-time World Champion Crimsix, has stated that he \u201cdoesn\u2019t understand\u201d the hype. Crimsix \u2018doesn\u2019t understand\u2019 MW4 hype On April 27, Crimsix tweeted that he has \u201cnever understood\u201d why COD fans care so much about game title. \u201cWho cares if it\u2019s called MW4 or not? Are you really gonna buy the new COD because of that or will you purchasing for sIcK nExT geN GRapHicS?!\u201d He went on to explain that the community shouldn\u2019t be getting hyped over the next game\u2019s title, as that is no guarantee it will be as popular or successful as the past Modern Warfare titles. The original Modern Warfare, released in 2007, is credited with creating much of the CoD \u2018formula\u2019, while 2009\u2019s Modern Warfare 2 is generally considered one of the best ever CoD titles. The examples he used to substantiate his argument were Black Ops 2 and Black Ops 3, games he argued were both \u201cincredible\u201d, even though they were \u201cvastly different\u201d. Every Black Ops installment in the CoD series has been developed by Treyarch. Look the point is, you shouldn\u2019t be getting hyped over a title. It\u2019s like getting hyped for a clickbaited title on YouTube. BO2 & BO3 we\u2019re both incredible, both made by the same people, but vastly different. I think the only correlation those two games had was simply the title. \u2014 Ian (@OpTic_Crimsix) April 27, 2019 He concluded by saying that \u201cthe only correlation those two games [BO2 & BO3] had was simply the title\u201d. Black Ops 2 was set in the 1980s and 2025 with a non-linear campaign and multiple possible endings, as well as featuring typical \u2018boots on the ground\u2019 style movement. However, Black Ops 3 was set in 2065, featured advanced movement in the form of jet packs, and introduced unique specialist characters to Call of Duty. Crimsix\u2019 point is that the name of the game does not guarantee that the game will be as enjoyable or successful as previous games that share the same title.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
