On console: Mw2 150gb warzone2 115gb Mw2s “cod hq” for launching games 50gb (the only mandatory one) Mw3 seems to be about 190 looking at articles. (For campaign, zombies and warzone)
They’re starting to obfuscate where each thing comes from now with the Cod HQ Launcher to play off the size of the games. As well as let you delete components like zombies and campaign to “save space” that they hoarded.
Downloaded dmz for some friends on pc it’s 68 so consoles probably see 75-80 if not more
This is BEFORE the fact that On console, each game demands its own space to unpack the entire thing when it tries to update. So on PS5 not only is the game 150gb, but you need 150 free space to update meaning the game is functionally a “ghost” 300gb (I uninstalled cold war over this shit, I don’t have time or room on a console for that fucking nonsense)
An archer can hit a man 450-1000 feet away. What’s a man clad in 200lbs armor gonna do? All he can do is take it. So the armor was sloped and thickened. Relying on horse speed to make them harder to hit.
As far as my understanding, it was. Long bowmen were far more valuable because the costs associated with losing a knight was high. Infantry were given various polearms, and cavalry (or knights on horses) were given lances and spears. The kinetic energy from horseback functioned as good or better than trying to wind up swings of a weapon. Also human mobility is less than that of a horse before even accounting for armor, so being demounted from your horse mean almost certain death.
Swords were a last resort. A “running away is better” type of option. Being good with your sword is like being good with martial arts today - better to have it even if you may not use it.
Part of it is how much of the sales pitch stressed the accuracy. Dont tell people you’re making something “as historically accurate as possible” and then flagrantly disregard it.
Like making concessions is one thing. In cod ww2 red dot sights are unlockable because frankly iron sights suck. Not historically accurate but gotta give players some kind of magnification to see at medium/long range.
But every gun getting a Silencer (not even suppressor lmao you can straight up make an LMG near silent) Disregard of reality. Cod ww2 didn’t like…sell itself on its historical accuracy, but these were just 2 examples to show it.
I do. Full subscription. Originally I had Basic, but with banners and stuff being added I thought “ah fuck why not?” I spend a lot of time on the platform as staff for a large server, and frequent 2 or 3 others so I’m much more visible as a flagship and interacting with users than most normal users. I dont feel like the average user needs full nitro, but I can break down how I use/see the various features.
spoilerI dropped my 2 boosts on some friends servers, our server is partnered and doesn’t need them, and I feel like boosts are…a silly money extraction tbh. I use animated emotes frequently and emotes from other servers (and animated emotes from other servers) so that feature is worth it. Increased file size is a godsend. I know this is artificially restricted and discord could be less stingy for free people, but for paid getting bigger uploads has helped tremendously when I have to use modmail on various servers. Send image proof? Easy. Video evidence? Done and done with that increased limit. Banner? I like it tbh. Not necessary but I like it. In tandem with this is setting my own colors for profile. I have never once used Remix. Super Emojis has got to be the dumbest fucking thing I have ever heard of. You get like 5 per week, and is the first feature I go out of my way to use so I can justify its existence. Dumb as hell. Streaming is nice. I dont usually use it but it is nice to be able to stream in our channels at max. I feel like this one is artificially gimped by Discord to get you to pay, so YMMV. I don’t use this feature often.
