Call of Duty\u2019s battle royale has captivated millions of players since its launch, but the gameplay tends to boil down to the same type of combat scenarios from one match to the next, according to shroud. \u201c[Warzone\u2019s] just not very much fun for me. It\u2019s the same game, every situation, every fight, everything just feels the same to me,\u201d he said. Even though the game includes dozens of weapons with an enormous map for the 150 player-lobby, shroud sees the same scenarios play out again and again. While teams can come up with creative ways to navigate the expansive Warzone terrain, fights ultimately culminate between who gets the first few shots off on a person. At a high level, there\u2019s much more nuance that goes into a firefight. But, compared to other battle royales like Apex Legends that throws a mixed bag of quirks simply for choosing your character, Warzone\u2019s gameplay is much more straightforward. \u201cI like variety. I like choosing between 1,2,3; or 1,2,3 4,5,6. Instead of just choosing 1 or 2,\u201d shroud went on, describing his preferred types of games that offer an assortment of scenarios for players to explore. Back in March, shroud expressed similar sentiments when he confessed to giving Call of Duty games only a two-week lifespan until he moves onto the next title. His decision isn\u2019t really surprising since he\u2019s admitted to preferring games that incorporate more skill from the player in order to come out as the winner. Topic starts at 7:16 \u201cWarzone isn\u2019t really my style, you know?\u201d shroud said while explaining why he prefers Apex over Warzone. \u201cWhile (Warzone) is fun from time to time \u2026 it\u2019s not particularly my fancy. I don\u2019t fancy it. I fancy games like CS, Valorant, Apex \u2014 games that take some skill.\u201d While millions of players are enjoying Warzone for what it is, don\u2019t expect shroud to jump into the battle royale for a prolonged time, at least while it\u2019s still in its current state. Ironically, he\u2019s still probably very good at the game, so it\u2019s a bit of a shame that the FPS guru doesn\u2019t rank it higher on his list of go-to titles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shroud explains why Warzone is boring in its current state Infinity Ward \/ ShroudTwitch superstar and former CS:GO pro Michael \u2018shroud\u2019 Grzesiek is unimpressed with Warzone\u2019s current state of gameplay, arguing that the repetitiveness of combat dissuades him from dropping into Verdansk.
