Shroud wants to start petition to remove \u2018unfun\u2019 tanks in Modern Warfare Michael \u2018shroud\u2019 Grzesiek has had it with Modern Warfare\u2019s tanks in Ground War \u2013 so much so that he\u2019s willing to start a petition just to get the \u2018unfun\u2019 vehicles removed from Call of Duty, or at least tweaked so they\u2019re not so dominant. The Mixer superstar is no stranger to first-person shooters and what makes them good, having shone bright in the Counter-Strike professional scene with Cloud9 for years before packing it in to take his streaming career full-time. If there\u2019s one thing the \u2018human aimbot\u2019 isn\u2019t a big fan of, though, it\u2019s unfair gameplay elements, and it seems like he\u2019s found one in Modern Warfare\u2019s explosive and player-heavy Ground War mode \u2014 tanks. In particular, shroud explained his disposition to the lumbering vehicles comes from the fact that they completely change the way the game is played when they arrive in a battle, forcing players to scatter or find different routes. \u201cThese fucking tanks man, I hate how much they make you change your movement,\u201d he said after spotting one during his December 12 stream. \u201cYou see one, and your whole dynamic of what you\u2019re thinking about doing just changes.\u201d \u201cCan I get a petition, to get rid of tanks in Ground War?\u201d he continued. \u201c[They] just make it like \u2018Nah actually, you know what? Cancel what you\u2019re doing, you have to do this now.\u2019\u201d Shroud admitted that he wasn\u2019t entirely against the idea of tanks, however, though he wouldn\u2019t mind seeing them drop out of the Ground War playlist for a little while. At the very least, he said, they do need some major tweaks to make them fun, and suggested it might be \u201cpretty cool\u201d to see them as high-end killstreaks that players had to earn, rather than just readily available weapons littered around the map. The Mixer star also addressed the main suggestion he\u2019s seen by others who aren\u2019t big fans of tanks, which is that the armored vehicles aren\u2019t too much of a threat if players actually focus them down with anti-vehicle weapons. \u201cSee, the reason I don\u2019t agree with that argument that they\u2019re fine if people actually try to destroy them is that their respawn rate is ridiculous,\u201d he said. \u201cYou destroy one, and another one comes back, you know what I mean? If you destroyed one, and it took a while to get back to the battlefield, then that might be a better way for them to be involved in the game.\u201d For mobile readers, the related segment in the video below begins at 4:06. Of course, shroud isn\u2019t the only Modern Warfare player to express their displeasure with the way tanks warp the way that Call of Duty is played, with many bugging the developers to either get rid of the powerful vehicles, or at least hit them with a nerf. Infinity Ward\u2019s multiplayer design director Joe Cecot also admitted they may have been a little gung-ho with the power of the tanks after the game was first released, and revealed the devs were planning to \u201cnerf the tanks a bit\u201d on November 14. However, four patches have come and gone since Cecot\u2019s comments, and tanks have to be touched in the past month, meaning it may be a bit of a wait until shroud gets what he wants. Maybe it is time someone started a petition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
