CoD is better than Destiny

This isn't a retarded rant, like all the other shit on this subforum but instead a valid argument so shut up if you're one of those retarded Desticles with Tourettes. The amazing gunplay in CoD sets an ever improving bar for the shooter genre. Though difficult to replicate and often leading to failure (Titanfall, Halo 4) it provides realistic, almost simulation like immersion. Even in the worst of the series, Ghosts (still a brilliant game) I never felt like there was something fundamentally wrong or that there was a way to exploit it. In Destiny it's just everybody exploiting 2 hit kill guns like thorn and last word. It's frustrating and laggy at best. Weapon balance in Call of Duty also is renowned for its excellency and the developers acknowledging critiscism very well. Admittedly weapon balance is never perfect upon launch (true for most games). Sledgehammer games have been very open with sharing weapon balancing plans and have done a very good job so far. With the next update I believe that there will be now no useless weapons in Advanced Warfare. A considerable feat. In Destiny if you're not using a felwinters sniper rifle and a thorn you're doing it wrong. Everything else is obsolete. Connectivity issues in CoD are at an all time low in comparison to Destiny with its awful lag and netcode and random disconnection errors. I almost never get kicked or lag from advanced warfare and it's only when the servers or PSN are down for maintenance. The common stereotype of small children playing CoD is now also a complete fallacy consdiering many of the 8 year old squeakers now play Destiny and pollute [quote][/quote]the servers there. CoD also has zombies which is just as fun if not more than any raid or prison of elders made by the guy who made me throw money at my screen. CoD also has a brilliant and engaging story unlike Destiny. And it doesn't overprice it's DLC (which is entirely optional and not mandatory like Destiny). And CoD doesn't make me want to throw money at my screen. And DeeJ is a pegboy.

    • CoD has had the same story setup for a long time. Where you kill the antagonist in a very boring way. I had AW hoping beyond hope it was the right push needed to get the franchise back on top. Sadly no. The graphics in PVP are a joke to me. The fun factors in the game were one shot and not really made as integral part of the story or elsewhere. It just felt wasted...

      • "COD? simulation like immersion"? Your kidding right? COD has a very arcade feel to it, battlefield offers way more of a simulation feel. In cod the projectile always hits it's mark on the reticle, whereas in battlefield it always has that feel of slight variation round to round, far more realistic.

      • Lag issues all time low in CoD ? Yeah right, AW has terrible lag issues due to the bullshit matchmaking that prefers stats over connection, normal crucible in Destiny has the same issue. All CoD games released after MW2 have had connection issues, Ghosts was one of the better ones (which you could clearly see by the lack of lag complaints in the CoD forums compared to other titles) and AW has been shitty since launch. Whenever AW is patched i usually go back and test if they finally managed to lessen the amount of lagging bullet sponges in the lobbies, and so far it's been a dissapointment every time.

      • I like cod better as well, (BO3 zombie hype!) but I do disagree with the your statement about exploiting the game. In destiny, the exploit guns are final round snipers, thorns, and the last word. In the most recent cod (AW) the exploit guns were the speakeasy (Fore grip+ long barrel) and Bal 27 ( IK it got nerfed but it's still damned powerful). Ghosts was by far the worst because : Multiplayer: Vector Competitive: Vector Anything else in that -blam!-ing game: Vector

        • Cod has always had overpowered weapons that put you at a disadvantage of you weren't using them just like destiny a few examples the OMA grenade launchers from MW2 the ACR from MW3

        • Cod has some of the worst gunplay out there. Sprint/slide/jump/sprint/slide/jump spam auto, kill in 3 body shots.

          • You missed the satire tag Also I'd hardly say the story was engaging, the last good COD campaign was COD 2.

              • Sorry but I have to say Advanced Warfare is the worst while Ghosts is the best. Anyway, if we are comparing CoD to Destiny I assume we are talking pvp. There are several things CoD does better than Destiny. 1:60fps 2:private matchmaking 3:way more game varieties 4:way better gun balance 5:way more maps 6:all maps are playable for all game modes 7:map voting in the lobby 8:CoD has a better lobby setup 9:[b]way less lag[/b] 10:very very very rare to kill exchange 11:way better variety of guns(compared to exotics in Destiny) 12: way more gun customization 13:huge variety of cosmetic dlc for customization of both weapons and the player That's all I can think of off the top of my head, wait, 14: competitive league seasons 15: prestige system That's a lot of things CoD pvp does better than Destiny pvp. But I still enjoy both.

                      True, weapon balance is never perfect at launch and there's only so much you can test in a closed environment and they've only had a beta for cod once, I believe for world at war. If they are going to start doing betas though, that will no longer be an excuse. Also, I got the game at launch digitally but got a full refund from microsoft a week later (thank god). Weapon balance was atrocious then which is excusable, but from what I've read online, and hear from friends, it's still pretty bad. With the yearly cycle, weapon balance should be a top priority and fixed quickly. It's July and it's still not balanced correctly. That is a big problem and inexcusable. No one besides people who can't afford it, or for some reason, actually enjoyed advanced warfare is gonna be playing it once black ops 3 drops. So for them to not have the balance right 8+ months later, means they have failed.
