A full width split screen zombies mode, and a full lobby of people who want to play Kino Der Toten are pretty much the only thing that would interest me in another COD BLOPS title.

I just can't imagine who these titles are for now. I appreciate they're trying to make the graphics and sound amazing, but these online experiences, as imagined by the developers, have taken away more than they've given.

The last modern warfare title I bought was MW2, that bizarro named one. I opened it a few weeks ago and the whole game has become a loader to other COD games and its multiplayer lobbies are empty. So stupid and I wish I could get a refund.

    Its military propaganda. Tends to do well with military folk and is used for recruiting young people.

    when you specify "full width split screen zombies mode", I'm confused — do the newer games not have split screen for zombies? I thought they carried zombies through all the new games because it was so popular

    I haven't played since black ops 2, where I quickly dropped it. only played MW2 and black ops one before that.

    I'm not so sure about the latest versions, if they made local split screen better.

    Black Ops 3 has the Kino der Toten map split screen but it doesn't run full width. I'm pretty sure the same map on Black Ops 1 did run full width.

    My favorite moments with these games were always playing locally, and having that keeps the game playable for as long as you own it and a working console.

    yep, my favourite COD memories (almost the only, really) are MW2 with buddies, and lapping kino to high levels on split screen

    I'm still not understanding, and I think this is just because what you're describing is a really stupid thing, but are you actually saying that the local split screen is like a square aspect ratio or something?

    When you say "it doesn't run full width", what do you mean? I'm not following either 😅 do you mean the split screen is vertical (i.e. side-by-side) rather than horizontal (i.e. one on top of the other)?

    Here's an example of the split screen not running at full width on Black Ops 3

    And here's how it used to look on Black Ops 1: https://youtu.be/lnF2W-e7e8Q
