Love my boy Scump, but Crim is so right. You can totally improve individually when you play by yourself. Plus it benefits your team. There's literally no excuse to not practice individually during the competitive season
Mike Corcoran I think what he said was taken a Lil wrong when he said it. The way I heard it was basically him saying why would I practice for free? ya know he's not saying he doesn't completely practice or do 8s but just doesn't like to do it off stream. idk that's just my take and if I'm wrong I apologize just another set of ears towards it.
in every vision where they show the cod team talking strats crim makes the most sense. from a competitive stand point he is my favorite on the team. from a carry stand point its gotta be formal
whosAltoon not only that but wtf did he do he looks like a male version of amber rose from Orange is the new black like he cleaned up and he looks fucking 10 years younger jesus Christ.
He honestly really loves these games. But he's gotten to the point where it's just not really worth it anymore. He's tired of having two rings, and no one listening to a god damn thing he says.
27:30 Looking back on it, this really showed the difference between crim and scump, crim’s focus was only on competing and getting better, scump focused on making a living while competing, not surprised those two were beefing for a bit
Justin Munoz that's exactly what I was thinking. He made sure they explained their points and he provided questions in order to address the opposite perspective on the topic.
The thing that pisses me off the most is why THE ACTUAL FUCK did they stop doing league play like from black ops 2. Every "new league play" is the biggest downgrade/non competitive thing I've ever seen
League play gets the casual player into comp so why not make it good like black ops 2's was. this shit makes no sense its like they don't want casual players to play comp
terryrmd8 I have no problem with events being streamed on MLG BUT as long as they also stream it on Twitch. Streaming the events on UA-cam is stupid because I dislike like how UA-cam's live streaming service is set up
cowboys Dak Prescott UA-cam's streaming service just doesn't appeal to me. For me in my opinion Twitch is the better platform because it has more to offer as far the viewing experience goes
Anyone notice that the major problems started coming after Playstation and Activision partnered. Obviously there was problems in AW & Ghosts for the Xbox One but everything has gone to shit after AW.
Oblivious Comp not gonna lie, I loved AW. People just hated it because it was different. Now that Sony and activision are partnered I feel like cod has gotten worse.
Oblivious Comp the only thing PlayStation is doing wrong is the Bluetooth issues, everything else is on activision, MLG, etc. but I argue that PlayStation should invest more in comp cod considering they're a multi billion dollar company
Oblivious Comp that has nothing to do with sony, the moment jetpacks got introduced is when cod has been experiencing negativity from the community and from pros
Izzy Martin You know how he talked about how all the e-girls are the same in the beginning of the podcast and all they care about is the followers the guy has and the reputation? He was lowkey talking about Kenz
Such a great Podcast, I agree 100% with everything said here. The community is long overdue for a lot of changes. And to you H3cz great, great job playing devils advocate to bring out the real answers from the team as pro players instead of all of you ganging up on developers. Hope to see more like this. Signed, A passionate Cod Player
Personally, I think the boost jumping adds a new way to play and I love it. To me boots on the ground make the game to campy, just take a look at Remastered, you can't play a single game without people camping with a M16. When you add a new movement style it gives you a way to get around the campers and keeps the game at a faster pace.
Bimmr people still camped Aw was alright for awhile but they should've gone to boots ln the ground for bo3 and iw bit activision will still fuck the game with their gay ass supply drops
Bimmr people will always camp regardless though, look at black ops 2 hands down the most popular cod and it did so well for the competitive scene and multiplayer was enjoyable not just for a couple of months like recent games but for the duration of the game the problem with jet packs is it has too many variables to it and it makes it less tactical. Pubs in all jet pack games only last until like Christmas or February and then that's it. It's just another boring cod and like they said in the video, if the casual players don't enjoy it how does anyone expect them to learn and watch the competitive scene to it. Counter strike is the most simplest game yet it's so competitive for the last 10 years+.
ItsFuzzyHD and CS was an easy one to put on TV because it's simple to explain to anyone of any age. which is a huge selling point for TV. cod snd super easy to explain cod uplink and stuff flying all over like the wizard of Oz monkeys at speeds older people will just get confused and the viewership wouldn't be good. boots on the ground is way more marketable to the public. it's just facts and I 100% agree. u have to stop entertaining the kids that are 11 on adderall and tweaking with all this new movement and bring back what made cod great. if you didn't enjoy black ops 2 or mw3 over these or even fucking ghost over these then I can't respect your opinions on cod. not because you like IW or whatever but because you clearly never viewed the heyday of when this game was great.
See an osteopath for any structural issues. Do your own research if you want to discover that chiropractic is a dangerous bastardization of Osteopathy, and self-correction is only ever harmful
Loved this video. How they broke down all these problems and added their own flare to their comments was refreshing and awesome to watch. Honestly wish it was longer haha.
Absolutely not. CoD 4, MW2, MW3 were the three best CoDs in my opinion. If they were to go back to the Modern period, Infinity Ward blows Treyarch out of the water.
Mase Whitey hate to tell you but the infinity ward dev team that made those games is LONG gone from IW. They all left for another studio. The dev team that made Ghosts and Infinite Warfare is totally different, and they have no idea what the fuck they're doing when it comes to multiplayer and especially competitive
not really it just brought more kids that pubstomp onto a website and community to just troll the real players with pointless games and they have no intention to go pro or help the community
IRaidzYT in some cases that happened yes, but I would bet that thousands of players never would have found any sort of competitive cod at all I think it was very helpful
sheprd19 he kinda does that, just less formally. Like I think he said he talked to the cs team for 6 months or something before he was ready to acquire them
On Ghosts a group of pros from different teams agreed in a Skype call that they wouldn't scrim with Optic because they where better and the hate they received online.
Zachary Battles in 2013 with ghosts teams believed it was unfair that optic always got the most viewers and was always the most popular so they all refused to scrim against optic so optic had nothing to stream.
optic the best clan to ever form.. I Will grind to make cod great again.. remember my name.. once these legends hang up the sticks I will take one of their places and prove why optic is forever superior
Great podcast. Please throw one of these in their for each team,if possible. However, one of these every now and again is really refreshing and provides real good insight into the future of COD and informing the COD Community on what it can do so that future COD's don't have the same result as this COD. I will continue to support the community,but as a player I am at a breaking point with COD. Thanks Hecz and the boys for this video.
This is one of the best podcasts I've heard so far... great job. This is the kind of stuff I like to hear. So worth my time. Cod has had a lot of problems lately.
Brett Medley it's being distributed in certain areas around the globe at the moment just testing the waters still I don't believe they have rolled out full distribution.
This was actually really easy to watch for being as long as it is. I tend to skip through Vision looking for CoD parts, but you have a really good series here.
Another major flaw in IW is the simple lack of a competitive playlist. It is literally mind boggeling how Activision is trying to push the CWL and invest in the growth of CoD eSports and yet they dont have a proper competitive ranked playlist. Like come on, look at Black Ops 2? League Play played a huge part in the integration of new players and bridged the gap between casual and competitve play. From now on it should not be a second thought or half assed add on to the game - it has to be a key component in the playlist.
Karma low key took a shot at scump 27:00 LOLLL "you can learn how to drop a warden" If y'all watch scumps vids, you would know what he was talking about hahahah
I want to say I appreciate what you guys do for us (cod community). You all are a mouth piece for us and it is important you guys know what that means. :)
love this video hector, great editing by hitch as well. this video sparked many opinions and ideas on how i feel towards this life cycle on call of duty. very interesting to hear from some of the best pro players too nonetheless!
Very cool to hear the perspectives of pros. I didn't purchase this COD because I did not want to play a game with this movement. I was decent with the movement, had a scuff, etc etc. Being constructive with criticism is so important, and I'm glad to see that the people that spend extensive time playing the games are trying to impact it for everyone. Really cool.
I watched this roughly 4 times now idk why but I find it so fascinating to hear people preach on cod like this. MAKE ANOTHER ONE WITH FORMAL TOO PLEASSSSE
Cod basically should have never left Pc had a lot bigger/better comp community than console early on, but got shafted by activsion in terms of support.
I have watched competitive COD since Black Ops I but this year I have not even watched ye scrim. This game fucking sucks and it has honestly ruined competitive COD for me . I thought Black Ops III was bad but honestly this takes the cake for worst COD ever!
cowboys Dak Prescott yes it was you fuckin dumbass, you're prob like 13 if you think that trash ass game was good, cod died back after aw started getting supply drops
Gary Stack I agree. Didn't even bother buying AW, bought Bo3, thought it was bad. Don't get me wrong, I had fun in Bo3 but it just wasn't what I hoped it to be. Now when IW is out, i have much bigger respect to Bo3, but I still rather play MWR than any of the exo bullshit
Agree completely Gary. I do like aw though and still play it but the last two games have been a disappointment. I was a huge fan of cod, loved mw3, ghosts and aw. Don't like the wall running, stupid fucking dances at the end of every game, over the top customisation (they spend more time on that shit than they do making the game function better with fucking leaderboards which IW still hasn't got apparently? I wouldn't know as I don't play it but that's what I've heard but just goes to show that they release unfinished games and then try to scam as much money as possible from the kids with mummy or daddy's credit card.
at 24:30 the question asked is basically, if you enjoy the game more, would it make you a better player? In reality you would think yes, and scump made a good answer to it with saying he would want to play it more which would make him a better player, but at the same time, for me, although i havnt played the game in almost 2 months now because of how bad it is, I personally found myself to be quite good even though i could easily admit that i hated the game. The game is bad but yet i kinda enjoyed playing it due to being good at it, but i guess its a hard question to answer as an entirety and it really just comes down to the person.
Two and a half fucking years on campaign!?!??! And 6 assfucked months on MP?!?!?!? And the CP was awsome!?!? imagine if they had seitched the fucking roles!?!? FFS IW get your shit together!! Im tilted as fuck now!!!!!!
And btw the thing Hector said about other people waking up and going to work that they dont like, it is so nice that somebody told them (scump especialy) that they have it way better than others and there they sit (scump again) saying that "IW is not fun i dont like it!" and here i am going to school thinking "nigah ill play 10 hours a day of LOL (that i havent ever played) and still have more fun!!! and playing cod for a livibg!?!? ohh boy that would be heaven!!!!
Scump didn't mean it as in a complaining way about his job. He meant it more as in a way that it hurts the competitive scene. If you don't enjoy the game then your not going to be as good as you could be which means less enjoyable content to the viewers watching the game. Also them being pros really doesn't pay their bills since the prize money they win is actually quite low unless your on the best teams. Most of the pros get paid by what people would call side jobs which in their case is making videos or live streaming on twitch. All of which takes more time out of their day besides the hours they have to spend scrimming.
why should they put more than that much effort the game would've been trashed regardless due to the future setting it still would have the low player population it has now
I think Scump is that guy who has natural talent and doesn't have to work for it much, but isn't much of the brains behind the operation. Karma is very well spoken it seems and speaks from a logical stand point. I feel like Scump just speaks from emotion and just says random things like "it sucks." That's great, but that doesn't get you anywhere. Why does it suck?
really great discussion hopefully the devs see this and take some of this into consideration. Or perhaps a studio just develop for the pro scene. With pro play as the main focus.
Love my boy Scump, but Crim is so right. You can totally improve individually when you play by yourself. Plus it benefits your team. There's literally no excuse to not practice individually during the competitive season
Mike Corcoran I think what he said was taken a Lil wrong when he said it. The way I heard it was basically him saying why would I practice for free? ya know he's not saying he doesn't completely practice or do 8s but just doesn't like to do it off stream. idk that's just my take and if I'm wrong I apologize just another set of ears towards it.
Skyler Smith Nah man, I see what you mean. That makes a lot of sense.
Skyler Smith I took it as, why practice alone and improve alone, when you can improve as a team
in every vision where they show the cod team talking strats crim makes the most sense. from a competitive stand point he is my favorite on the team. from a carry stand point its gotta be formal
Yeah, exactly. What happens when Scumps in a 1v1 in S&D. That is where you're individual skill comes in.
When Scump, who always defended CoD from an outsiders point of view, publicly says IW is shit, then you know your game is bad.
IW is GOAT
SillyMoMusic iw is fun af people are just sleep
KxngJay lol shits trash
Gary chilll
New cod players don’t know shit about cod lmfao
Damon is really well spoken. He was spitting facts on facts
whosAltoon not only that but wtf did he do he looks like a male version of amber rose from Orange is the new black like he cleaned up and he looks fucking 10 years younger jesus Christ.
Skyler Smith he looks the same....
whosAltoon Damon is a little crazy but he's smart af
He honestly really loves these games. But he's gotten to the point where it's just not really worth it anymore. He's tired of having two rings, and no one listening to a god damn thing he says.
27:30 Looking back on it, this really showed the difference between crim and scump, crim’s focus was only on competing and getting better, scump focused on making a living while competing, not surprised those two were beefing for a bit
YUP
Showing alot this year as well tbh
@@benm4454 After today? yeah😂
i love how unbiased h3cz is and how hes able to get people to develop reasons to behind why they feel the way they do
THANK YOU.
Justin Munoz he such a well spoken person,im waiting for him to start doing speaking seminars

Justin Munoz OpticTherapy
Justin Munoz that's exactly what I was thinking. He made sure they explained their points and he provided questions in order to address the opposite perspective on the topic.
The thing that pisses me off the most is why THE ACTUAL FUCK did they stop doing league play like from black ops 2. Every "new league play" is the biggest downgrade/non competitive thing I've ever seen
League play gets the casual player into comp so why not make it good like black ops 2's was. this shit makes no sense its like they don't want casual players to play comp
Yeetsquad Yeet You're 100% correct. It definitely helped grow the sport because casuals could get into the competitive atmosphere
Yeetsquad Yeet yes, just have the same thing as bo2
Yeetsquad Yeet I liked aws and bo3s but for bo3 it took forever for a game to start
angel rodriguez if u played bo2 league play you'd think those ones r shit
I can't be the only one who watches these as if they're actual videos and not just have it on in the background.
Kingster I do
Kingster I do because sometimes funny stuff happens in them lol.
watched every second. I do the same with PKA, and that shit's 4 hours long lol
EagleScope rape squad killas baby
I watch while afking Runescape lmfaoo
Put more time into watching this podcast than I have into watching competitive cod so far this year. And I'm only 23 minutes into it...
Been waiting for this podcast all day and this exact topic.
It's going to be lit as fuck bro.
👑FPSABE-BEST CALL OF DUTY VIDEOS! Wanted to see what they would say after this patch though... unlucky timing
1:13:12 why my boy Boze out here gardening while y'all are doing a podcast?
BonesOnDemand because he doesnt play cod lol
Karma is the greatest for speaking out!
Zilixian retweet
Rest in peace to the best COD team of all time. We miss you Damon :(
Johnny Bats what happened
now we know why they didnt like Formal he wasnt even here
James Eure karma and formal got dropped, formal is on LG and karma is a free agent
Damn.
Dan Iacobucci his not a free agent his an optic content creator if he likes bo4 he will be back in the pro team
Events not streamed on Twitch was the dumbest decision ever lol
terryrmd8 I have no problem with events being streamed on MLG BUT as long as they also stream it on Twitch. Streaming the events on UA-cam is stupid because I dislike like how UA-cam's live streaming service is set up
terryrmd8 it evens out since its streamed on youtube too but yea twitch is better
cowboys Dak Prescott UA-cam's streaming service just doesn't appeal to me. For me in my opinion Twitch is the better platform because it has more to offer as far the viewing experience goes
where do they stream them? MLG?
keen MLG and UA-cam
"irl girls yes. egirls are always the same." You killed me Seth😂
MFox I mean he's with an egirl currently. 🙄😂 The same egirl he's been breaking up with and getting back together with since Ghosts.
Anyone notice that the major problems started coming after Playstation and Activision partnered. Obviously there was problems in AW & Ghosts for the Xbox One but everything has gone to shit after AW.
Oblivious Comp not gonna lie, I loved AW. People just hated it because it was different. Now that Sony and activision are partnered I feel like cod has gotten worse.
Oblivious Comp the only thing PlayStation is doing wrong is the Bluetooth issues, everything else is on activision, MLG, etc. but I argue that PlayStation should invest more in comp cod considering they're a multi billion dollar company
Martwa I didn't even buy IW, bo3 was so bad imo I wasn't going to spend $60 on a bad game
What do you mean AW was balanced? Youre saying all the bs weapon variants was balanced? Fuck that 2 shotting obsidian steed and speakeasy
Oblivious Comp that has nothing to do with sony, the moment jetpacks got introduced is when cod has been experiencing negativity from the community and from pros
I watched every SINGLE one of Seths BO3 videos. Have watched maybe 2 IW videos, Nuff said.
Jeremiah sweeney he's only uploaded like two IW vids lol
Jeremiah sweeney same
Jeremiah sweeney
I still sometimes rewatch his bo3 vids instead of any IW vids
i never related to a comment so much
ss
Scumpi was talking about kenzlie lol
Andy Medina time?
Izzy Martin no name dropped but basically first 5 minutes lol
Andy Medina he should have just @ her
Izzy Martin You know how he talked about how all the e-girls are the same in the beginning of the podcast and all they care about is the followers the guy has and the reputation? He was lowkey talking about Kenz
React2Quick clearly 😂😭😭
Everybody wants Scump to make that headhunting video
jorge rodriguez hell yeah
Where's formal , oh nvm he's only apart of the team at events
lolll
JCodplayz dude lives in a different state, the halo team ain't there with TJ? Drop him lol he's one of their better players
Azza never said drop him
About36GREEKS sup papa
hes a beasy
BO2 REMASTERED IS THE ONLY WAY
GunR 😛😜😍😱😰😧😩😍😛😜
I haven't bought a cod since bo3 but I would buy that bro
Might just be true
We still waiting
this might be one of my favorite podcasts that OpTic has done
Such a great Podcast, I agree 100% with everything said here. The community is long overdue for a lot of changes. And to you H3cz great, great job playing devils advocate to bring out the real answers from the team as pro players instead of all of you ganging up on developers. Hope to see more like this.

Best video in 2017 im calling it.
That’s the three best COD players of all time sitting next to each other right there. That’s fucking crazy.
Scump is headgliching the mic lol
First Podcast I see, totally worth it. Thank you guys for been sincere and honest with everything that surrounds the CoD Stage at the moment.
Personally, I think the boost jumping adds a new way to play and I love it. To me boots on the ground make the game to campy, just take a look at Remastered, you can't play a single game without people camping with a M16. When you add a new movement style it gives you a way to get around the campers and keeps the game at a faster pace.
Bimmr ppl still camp in IW
Bimmr people still camped Aw was alright for awhile but they should've gone to boots ln the ground for bo3 and iw bit activision will still fuck the game with their gay ass supply drops
That's cause IW sucks. But even still compare it to the lobbies in Remastered, way more people camping.
Bimmr people will always camp regardless though, look at black ops 2 hands down the most popular cod and it did so well for the competitive scene and multiplayer was enjoyable not just for a couple of months like recent games but for the duration of the game the problem with jet packs is it has too many variables to it and it makes it less tactical. Pubs in all jet pack games only last until like Christmas or February and then that's it.

First time I've watched/listened to the podcast. Really like how chilled out it is, very good job on hosting it hecz. Definitely gonna watch more
gah damn scump gotta work on that forward head posture
nicky g squaaad pushups......

See an osteopath for any structural issues. Do your own research if you want to discover that chiropractic is a dangerous bastardization of Osteopathy, and self-correction is only ever harmful
Dave Buikema u know damn well u dont know those words
Loved this video. How they broke down all these problems and added their own flare to their comments was refreshing and awesome to watch. Honestly wish it was longer haha.
treyarch should takeover making cod every year!
beamernz1 yessssss!
beamernz1 nah man I think they should be the only studio but they should make a new one every 2 years
beamernz1 YES! And remaster bo2 with the next cod they make. That would be AMAZING.
Absolutely not. CoD 4, MW2, MW3 were the three best CoDs in my opinion. If they were to go back to the Modern period, Infinity Ward blows Treyarch out of the water.
Mase Whitey hate to tell you but the infinity ward dev team that made those games is LONG gone from IW. They all left for another studio. The dev team that made Ghosts and Infinite Warfare is totally different, and they have no idea what the fuck they're doing when it comes to multiplayer and especially competitive
They need a league play system like bo2. It brought so many new people to comp cod and comp actually had dev support
not really it just brought more kids that pubstomp onto a website and community to just troll the real players with pointless games and they have no intention to go pro or help the community
IRaidzYT in some cases that happened yes, but I would bet that thousands of players never would have found any sort of competitive cod at all I think it was very helpful
H3CZ good shit
here's an idea you should interview all your teams/employees
sheprd19 he kinda does that, just less formally. Like I think he said he talked to the cs team for 6 months or something before he was ready to acquire them
Nathan Helmininack no for the podcast
i actually just watched the whole thing seriously, this was amazing and insightful job well done
What do they mean when they talk about blacklisted?
On Ghosts a group of pros from different teams agreed in a Skype call that they wouldn't scrim with Optic because they where better and the hate they received online.
Zachary Battles in 2013 with ghosts teams believed it was unfair that optic always got the most viewers and was always the most popular so they all refused to scrim against optic so optic had nothing to stream.
It wasn't about the skill levels, it was the viewers that Optic were pulling. Thats what the other pros believed were unfair (which is ludicrous).
23:30, so strue. after the release if IW I conpletelty left cod for CS:GO. Hope the next cod will drive me back.
optic the best clan to ever form.. I Will grind to make cod great again.. remember my name.. once these legends hang up the sticks I will take one of their places and prove why optic is forever superior
quinton riley are you fucking bent
Liam Hooson No.. why are you on my comment XD
quinton riley yoooo my boy don't I have you for English?
Lmaooo isais??? 😂😂 Yo watch optic lol u my son
y'all know each other in real life... small world
1st time watching an optic podcast and it's actually really entertaining and a lot more professional than i expected. Great job, Hecz is a great host
IW multi is garbage. BO3 is where it's at
bo3 is better than IW but its still not good
I hated the wallrunning. Watch any Snd with Nagafen and you'll know why
fortnum found the kid thats trash at jetpack games
fortnum funny, but anything under a 2.5 is bad. Anything 4+ is good. And you wouldnt find it boring if you did good in-game.
if you still think KD is relevant then your clearly bad at cod.
if only formal was there too
I feel like we need a part 2 of this podcast because something's were brushed over
Great podcast. Please throw one of these in their for each team,if possible. However, one of these every now and again is really refreshing and provides real good insight into the future of COD and informing the COD Community on what it can do so that future COD's don't have the same result as this COD. I will continue to support the community,but as a player I am at a breaking point with COD. Thanks Hecz and the boys for this video.
There*
Early af and I already know it's going to be lit
Orgasim
I need this again, really interesting to hear you guys speak what we all think and what needs to actually happen to develop cod as an esports
"They had to have know this shit was gonna tank, that's why they made a remastered" Seth 2017 😂😂
finally. this is the greatest podcast ever. this is what we've been waiting for from the podcasts from the beginning.
That look Seth gave to the camera 4:20 lmaoooo
Worth every second, great video. Real talk was long overdue.
Boy how 3 years have taken a turn
This is one of the best podcasts I've heard so far... great job. This is the kind of stuff I like to hear. So worth my time. Cod has had a lot of problems lately.
How/Where can a guy buy some Brisk Mate?!
Brett Medley ive only ever found it a gas stations and convenience stores
Brett Medley it's being distributed in certain areas around the globe at the moment just testing the waters still I don't believe they have rolled out full distribution.
Brett Medley go to 711. I live in Canada and we never get shit. And we have it here. I've only looked for it at 711
Brett Medley some 7/11's around usa not all
Damn thanks guys, apparently I won't be getting it until full distribution here in Hawaii
This was actually really easy to watch for being as long as it is. I tend to skip through Vision looking for CoD parts, but you have a really good series here.
Another major flaw in IW is the simple lack of a competitive playlist. It is literally mind boggeling how Activision is trying to push the CWL and invest in the growth of CoD eSports and yet they dont have a proper competitive ranked playlist. Like come on, look at Black Ops 2? League Play played a huge part in the integration of new players and bridged the gap between casual and competitve play. From now on it should not be a second thought or half assed add on to the game - it has to be a key component in the playlist.
Fucking love the OpTic team man. All very distinct personalities. Scump is probably the most naturally funny person I can think of
Karma low key took a shot at scump 27:00 LOLLL "you can learn how to drop a warden"
If y'all watch scumps vids, you would know what he was talking about hahahah
Arnel Catarroja I just noticed 😂😂
Arnel Catarroja i dont get it.. can you explain it..?
^
Leonardo Mendoza he always dies before earning the warden
Arnel Catarroja ahhhh! I caught that!😎👊💙
I want to say I appreciate what you guys do for us (cod community). You all are a mouth piece for us and it is important you guys know what that means. :)
I miss Matthew "The Pipe" Piper
Best podcast yet. Like completely unmatched. Great work guys. You too Hitch.
OMG Scump pleeease make that video roasting everybody from the top to the bottom!!! Go headhunting!!!
love this video hector, great editing by hitch as well. this video sparked many opinions and ideas on how i feel towards this life cycle on call of duty. very interesting to hear from some of the best pro players too nonetheless!
Damon needs to be on the podcast more
Very cool to hear the perspectives of pros. I didn't purchase this COD because I did not want to play a game with this movement. I was decent with the movement, had a scuff, etc etc. Being constructive with criticism is so important, and I'm glad to see that the people that spend extensive time playing the games are trying to impact it for everyone. Really cool.
scumps neck posture is so bad
Cole Deards look at him when he's playing games. Always leaning forward with his head out there
Daniel hes a turtle, leave him alone
yeah i know, he will have problems with it sooner or later
i actually find it easier but everyones different. you can still sit up and keep your neck in the right position though
Cody Waggener nope
This is so true in every aspect of what they talked about...love it
Hecz said NADESHOT!!! get TRIGGERED!!!
MrE_gentleman where
The Stuud when they were talking about retired players That are living good such as bigt, nadeshot, etc
MrE_gentleman when?
MrE_gentleman you're dumb period
angel rodriguez how so? explain...
Literally the best podcast in a very long time hands down.
i dont even like cod and this is pissing me off
seth forgot to mention blizzard has a heroes of the storm and world of warcraft pro league
Mc_bluntpuff hearthstone ?
I watched this roughly 4 times now idk why but I find it so fascinating to hear people preach on cod like this. MAKE ANOTHER ONE WITH FORMAL TOO PLEASSSSE
Damn i remember when OpTic got blacklisted smh
AZFG Thrill they never actually got blacklisted tho lol people just talked about doing it
AZFG Thrill what does that mean?

If the blue tooth issue happened on pc it would be fixed next day 100%
Cernzy this is 100% true and this only fuels the arguments of PC master race and I'm a huge console guy but recently got a computer and understand now
I got one about a year ago and love pc and csgo put still love cod (csgo at the moment way more tho)
Cod basically should have never left Pc had a lot bigger/better comp community than console early on, but got shafted by activsion in terms of support.
Invid Darkey your delusional Literally couldn't be more wrong . Comp cod blew up in cod 4 and that was on console and comp has NEVER been on PC
This is the best one yet! Nice work, Hector!!
Can we get these 3 back on a podcast with the same topic again? Its 2 games onto the 3rd game later. I want to hear like an updated conversation
28:00 got a little bit of tension in the room. crim was obvs not happy
I have watched competitive COD since Black Ops I but this year I have not even watched ye scrim. This game fucking sucks and it has honestly ruined competitive COD for me . I thought Black Ops III was bad but honestly this takes the cake for worst COD ever!
Gary Stack same brotha
Gary Stack black ops 3 was not bad lol
cowboys Dak Prescott yes it was you fuckin dumbass, you're prob like 13 if you think that trash ass game was good, cod died back after aw started getting supply drops
Gary Stack I agree. Didn't even bother buying AW, bought Bo3, thought it was bad. Don't get me wrong, I had fun in Bo3 but it just wasn't what I hoped it to be. Now when IW is out, i have much bigger respect to Bo3, but I still rather play MWR than any of the exo bullshit
Agree completely Gary. I do like aw though and still play it but the last two games have been a disappointment. I was a huge fan of cod, loved mw3, ghosts and aw. Don't like the wall running, stupid fucking dances at the end of every game, over the top customisation (they spend more time on that shit than they do making the game function better with fucking leaderboards which IW still hasn't got apparently? I wouldn't know as I don't play it but that's what I've heard but just goes to show that they release unfinished games and then try to scam as much money as possible from the kids with mummy or daddy's credit card.
so lit how im hearing the team talk and formal and reading the comments
"64 bitches" I'm done HAHAHAH 😂😂
Man. These guys are great. Love this. Watched every second of it. Thanks Hecz!
Man it's 2:30am in London and I have work tomorrow.
Poor u :(
SparticPro My Guy!
How was work?
The Griffin Reborn Lord Jon Connington Not bad, thanks for asking
Hitch you work so hard and i appreciate you ! Thank you so much
Seth went from "i don't hate it, believe me" to "worst cod ever" lol at least he's not holding back anymore
That was actually amazing and funny and heckz lmaoo I really enjoyed the full thing
Scump high key roasted e-girls but low key it was about kenZ😂😂
at 24:30 the question asked is basically, if you enjoy the game more, would it make you a better player? In reality you would think yes, and scump made a good answer to it with saying he would want to play it more which would make him a better player, but at the same time, for me, although i havnt played the game in almost 2 months now because of how bad it is, I personally found myself to be quite good even though i could easily admit that i hated the game. The game is bad but yet i kinda enjoyed playing it due to being good at it, but i guess its a hard question to answer as an entirety and it really just comes down to the person.
Two and a half fucking years on campaign!?!??! And 6 assfucked months on MP?!?!?!? And the CP was awsome!?!? imagine if they had seitched the fucking roles!?!? FFS IW get your shit together!! Im tilted as fuck now!!!!!!
And btw the thing Hector said about other people waking up and going to work that they dont like, it is so nice that somebody told them (scump especialy) that they have it way better than others and there they sit (scump again) saying that "IW is not fun i dont like it!" and here i am going to school thinking "nigah ill play 10 hours a day of LOL (that i havent ever played) and still have more fun!!! and playing cod for a livibg!?!? ohh boy that would be heaven!!!!
lars salberg same bro same I envy their jobs
Scump didn't mean it as in a complaining way about his job. He meant it more as in a way that it hurts the competitive scene. If you don't enjoy the game then your not going to be as good as you could be which means less enjoyable content to the viewers watching the game. Also them being pros really doesn't pay their bills since the prize money they win is actually quite low unless your on the best teams. Most of the pros get paid by what people would call side jobs which in their case is making videos or live streaming on twitch. All of which takes more time out of their day besides the hours they have to spend scrimming.
why should they put more than that much effort the game would've been trashed regardless due to the future setting it still would have the low player population it has now
hands down my favorite podcasts so far
Playstation is just trash for Lan. Activision should just partnered back to Xbox ASAP.
Fatalshot they won't do it because PlayStation probably offered the most money for that contract and we all know that's what activision cares about
KrAziiPwNaGe Seems like activision only cares about quality over quaintly
Fatalshot can't there's a contract
Fatalshot they said that Microsoft didn't do anything as a title company so it wouldn't make much of a difference
game is trash it doesn't matter
Easily my favorite podcast yet ! Awesome conversation :)
Whose watching during 2k18 roster mania v2? Rip the best cod roster of all time
"This ain't Costco don't get it twisted" I died
I think Scump is that guy who has natural talent and doesn't have to work for it much, but isn't much of the brains behind the operation. Karma is very well spoken it seems and speaks from a logical stand point. I feel like Scump just speaks from emotion and just says random things like "it sucks." That's great, but that doesn't get you anywhere. Why does it suck?
Tjm412 Well I agree that scump speaks from emotion,but he has worked very hard to be where he is now,as has every pro player.
Tjm412 When he speaks he certainly doesn't come across as very intelligent.
What kind of point are you trying to make? Scump is very well spoken as is Karma and Crim. He’s the best competitive cod live commentator
I love these podcast, always entertaining lmao
Activisions gonna get them assasinated 😂😂
Mhars Bahn Trueeeee lol 😂
This is exactly what these boys needed was to talk about the game for a good hour.
Y'all need a players Association similar to like what the NBA and NFL has
really great discussion hopefully the devs see this and take some of this into consideration. Or perhaps a studio just develop for the pro scene. With pro play as the main focus.
scumps left arm is looking jacked compared to his right, we know what he's been doing with it. lmao
1:10:55 lol Karma's comment on league of legends got me laughing. LOL is a very hard game to get into the competitive scene
My question had the most likes on twitter and they didn't even ask it :(
GhostHands What was the question?
LSX-Ghost- who has the biggest dick
GhostHands what was the question?
I asked that if the next call of duty isn't good, will any of them consider retiring
That's a good question haha!
Seen the whole podcast this is amazing and alot of reasoning for a better CoD
