Warzone has definitely been a smash hit since its March 10 release. Over 30 million players have already piled into Infinity Ward\u2019s release in the past fortnight. With a host of competing titles, it\u2019s impressive it landed this well. There\u2019s only so long it can keep it\u2019s audience though, shroud believes. Like any modern Call of Duty titles, there comes a time when the player-base dwindles. According to one of Mixer\u2019s biggest names, it\u2019s on the verge of happening now. Shroud calls time on \u201cfun\u201d Warzone after two weeks It\u2019s not that shroud thinks Warzone is bad. He\u2019s not suggesting he\u2019ll shelve it because of any major issues like Dr Disrespect and his war on the game\u2019s 12-tick servers. But the streaming star just feels like Warzone\u2019s time is up. \u201cIt\u2019s Call of Duty. Everyone has a different lifespan for CoD, right? Everybody stops playing at X amount of time,\u201d shroud explained. \u201cUsually I play Call of Duty games for about two weeks, and then I\u2019m done, and I don\u2019t play \u2018til the next one.\u201d After a week spent \u201chardcore grinding\u201d Modern Warfare\u2019s multiplayer, and then another week on Warzone recently, shroud feels like he\u2019s hit a wall. There\u2019s only so much you can get out of one CoD title, he said, and he\u2019s done just that. \u201cI\u2019m almost done. We\u2019ve pretty much hit the two-week mark. When the game first came out I hardcore grinded it pretty hard. I\u2019ve been playing this [Warzone] for about a week too. I\u2019m at that two-week lifespan\u2026 I\u2019m going to move on.\u201d Warzone needs something \u2018fresh\u2019 to keep players Not every new game release has such a short fuse though, shroud said. One of his fans asked him why he stuck with similar battle royale PUBG for so long if he has a \u201ctwo-week\u201d timer. Shroud explained it was \u201cjust CoD.\u201d While many modern games can suck players in for \u201cages,\u201d the CoD franchise often forgoes long-term changes because of annual releases. This leads to players losing interest, the streamer added. Chief among them, now, was shroud himself. \u201cPUBG was new. No one\u2019s really done something like that,\u201d he said, and pointed to the fact Call of Duty never really breaks the mold in the same way. \u201cGranted, if you go back and play PUBG now you\u2019re going to hate your life.\u201d For mobile readers, the related segment begins at 0:15 in the video below. Could Warzone go the way of Blackout? There\u2019s also been plenty that\u2019s dogged shroud\u2019s week-long grind too. From \u201cuseless\u201d vehicles, to the \u201ccrazy\u201d respawn system, as well as Warzone\u2019s \u201csuper fast\u201d gas, the Mixer streamer has had plenty to say on the battle royale. This isn\u2019t the first time shroud has \u2018called time\u2019 on a CoD battle royale either. Just over a year ago, he suggested Blackout was on its last legs. While many disagreed, his prediction came true, and Black Ops\u2019 mode is now dead in the water. Perhaps Infinity Ward should take shroud\u2019s declaration of being \u201cdone\u201d as a warning. If they begin to lose fans, Warzone may follow Blackout into obscurity. The iron is hot now, and the devs need to strike \u2014 it\u2019s time for more content, and fast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shroud explains why he might be \u201cdone\u201d with CoD Warzone really soon Infinity Ward \/ Mixer: shroudMichael \u2018shroud\u2019 Grzesiek is on the verge of being \u201cdone\u201d with Modern Warfare\u2019s new battle royale Warzone, the Mixer star has revealed, explaining that even though the chaotic mode is \u201cfun,\u201d he\u2019s ready to put it back on the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31174","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31174","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31174"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31174\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31174"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31174"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31174"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
