Call of Duty: WWII Game Director Responds to Fan Feedback

3.9
Call of Duty: WWII has had its ups and downs in recent weeks, but as things start to even out it’s clear that the developers are going to begin taking more time to look at server stability, connections issues, and of course, weapon balancing. Today, Game Director Michael Condrey responded to a YouTube video created by NerosCinemo discussing the Domination game mode, Shotguns, Footsteps, and more.

The video–titled “Dear Sledgehammer Games…”– discusses several aspects of the game that have fallen under the microscope.

Fans have been questioning why Domination, a favorite game mode, and the default for many players, has set the point rewards for kills at 50. This, fans insist, prevents players from reasonably being able to acquire scorestreaks. A UAV for instance, which mandates 500 points, would require ten kills without accounting for captures, aggression, or defending. Interestingly enough, players could earn the illustrious V2 Rocket killstreak for 25 weapon kills before being able to call in the Ball Gunner scorestreak. Condrey insisted, however, that an overwhelming amount of data suggested that fans preferred it this way.


Also, fans have been noticing just how ineffective shotguns are, especially when looking at the three besides the Combat Shotgun. Condrey acknowledged this and agreed that Shotguns need a buff.

Finally, Condrey mentioned that footsteps, which are notably loud in this game, are being looked at. They are so audible that a good pair of headphones can be more helpful than a UAV. Similarly, the Mountain Division’s ability to silence footsteps seems extremely powerful in the current meta.

raefon Bahhhhhhhhh is sledge hammer did you actually expect them to make a game that was worth while. They are clueless


Better than treyarch and infinity ward have done for the past few years so yeah, theres some broken stuff but thats the same with all games.

theres not been a truly "good" COD since MW2/3


Dont get me wrong, I LOVED MW2. But that game was broken for months after release. Infinite care package glitch, javelin glitch. For a while not matter what game mode you searched for you ended up in 18 man rust. It took ages to get anything fixed with little to no info from developer.

That1kidv2 Lol shotguns need a buff? Screw that, close distance they kill you with one shot and have crazy distance.


Hahahahaha shot guns kill you at close range. Isn't that the point? "Crazy distance" is also inaccurate, especially for the Sawed Off where you can't kill a fly unless you put the barrel to it's face and pull the trigger.

I enjoy hearing people across the map but do agree a lot of fixes still needed on the game.

"More fans like Dom50"
Get outta here dude lol.

This guys game is completely broken, and wants constructive feedback, yet a lot of his tweets are angry/sarcastic responses to fans. You get what you give. This game can be so much fun when you get in the right lobby, but this dude is a joke.
