[jwplayer ulMZS35X] After weekends for PS4 players to play both the alpha and beta builds of Cold War, Activision have opened the floor to fans on all platforms to give the game ago ahead of its November 13 release. As such, we saw many pros and top streamers piling into the servers to try out the next installment in the CoD franchise, including Twitch and FPS extraordinaire shroud. That said, it didn\u2019t take long for shroud to find something really frustrating him about the game, and Call of Duty in general: killstreaks. After the enemy team called in multiple Spy Planes, a Sentry Turret, and an Attack Helicopter, he finally had enough, and made a bold call, saying that \u201ckillstreaks have got to go.\u201d After getting a few kills of his own, shroud said: \u201cNobody gives a f**k about these killstreaks anymore. They only ruin the gameplay experience. There\u2019s quite literally no positive besides a fake feeling of more content, progression\u201d That wasn\u2019t all, though. He continued, completely condemning killstreaks as a whole: \u201cThat\u2019s all it is. A waste of space. Waste of everything. Nobody cares.\u201d Killstreaks have been a point of contention for a while in the Call of Duty community. The switching between a traditional killstreak system, scorestreaks, and the new Cold War system that seems to be a combination of both, has left fans arguing over their favorite systems and what works best. It goes without saying, though, that shroud falls into a slightly different category of players that believe killstreaks have no place in Call of Duty at all anymore \u2014 and it would be interesting to see how the game plays out without them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shroud explains why killstreaks \u201cruin gameplay\u201d in Black Ops Cold War Twitch: shroud \/ ActivisionAfter playing the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War PC beta on October 15, Twitch streamer Michael \u2018shroud\u2019 Grzesiek has revealed one of his main gripes with the game \u2014 and long-term Call of Duty fans might not be impressed.
