I picked this game up and am pretty hopeful I'll enjoy it. Played part of the campaign and a bit of zombie mode. I'm always shy about playing with others since I'm fairly hapless but would be happy to connect with others in-game.
So has this been optimized for the XSX? Or is that something that's forthcoming?

You have to buy the XSX specific version of the game which costs a bit more than the Xbone version. They aren’t giving it as a free upgrade of the Xbone version. Very disappointing.

Hmm, curious if that's worth checking out. I'll probably buy it eventually.
Every year I have a moment when I feel like I could get the new CoD. Has anyone picked it up for PS4? How is the multiplayer ... I’ve heard it is a very bland multi this year and problems with SBMM. Real or overblown internet controversy?
I’m still on the fence about buying BO. I mostly play CoD socially with a specific group of Xbox friends and that group mostly plays Warzone instead of other MW modes. Now that BO is out they are heavily playing BO without me but I suspect once the novelty wears off they will just go right back to Warzone. Not sure I want to but BO for a few weeks of multiplayer.
I’ve been playing MW on PC cross play with my Xbone friends but now that I have a Series X and a 4k HDR display I was thinking of going Xbox this time. Then I saw the XB Series X version costs $10 more than the PC version and while $10 is nothing it pisses me right off that they would do that. Seems like such a cash grab tax on early adopters of new consoles.
Thanks ranalin! A great, detailed response about your gameplay experiences as always.
Hmm, I am admittedly a very vanilla "I just wanna play TDM for 30 minutes before rage quitting" and all I ask is there to be some very good assault rifle options besides AK-47 and of course a nice unlock system. (BTW, they still using the "pick 10" style of customization?)
Don't care about warzone stuff - does Cold War still hook into the main Warzone ecosystem? - so long as I can get a quick fix and play a decent single player campaign when I'm bored... I may consider this a buy.
Completed the campaign last night. It's on the short side 4-6 hours depending on doing the side missions and how much time it takes you figuring out clues.
I was impressed there was some RPG elements and forking story elements based on your decisions. The action scenes were bombastic and very Michael Bayish.
Given your Michael Bay comparison, I am assuming this is a Rambo 3-style approach to the Cold War?
On the spectrum of Commando --> Bond --> Tom Clancy --> Tinker/Tailor --> reality, where would you put it?
Oh noes! Now I'm going to have to seriously consider picking this up! I'm a sucker for anything Cold War.
Nuketown was dropped yesterday and they started a 2x xp and 2x weapon xp event that will run till 11/30
I love Nuketown and am taking full advantage of the double XP as it's quite the long grind to level up! I am loving this game - my previous CoD experience was years ago so the questions I've seen online questioning whether it's a marked improvement on last year's edition don't apply to me.
Quick question. Is the gun-feel and fidelity in this game’s multiplayer as good as Modern Warfare 2019?
In my head, the past 5 CoD games have all felt the same. In practice, I went from MW 2019 and then played Advanced Warfare (2015?) and WWII (2017) and they were remarkably primitive by comparison.
I ask because I have a disc copy of this for Series X and I have a plan to make my Series X the console I use for evergreen games like CoD, NBA 2k, etc. and use the PS5 for the rest. But if this game feels worse than MW, I need to start watching for deals on MW for XSX. The XSX remains unopened because technically it’s my birthday present next week.
