Call of Duty: WWII Gets The Honest Trailer Treatment - It's Brutal
They couldn't help themselves but to chime into the Loot Box controversy currently shaking the gaming community. By mentioning that the game is historically accurate but this time, with loot boxes ("Ah, yes, just like my grandpa remembered it), it's a hilarious nod to the shift happening right now between publishers, developers, and the gamers that love their work regarding microtransactions. But wait ... there's more.
They weren't afraid to poke fun at the solo hero routine either for this "exclusively American take" on an event that shook the world. There was even a little punch hit to the previous Advanced Warfare in order to "Press F to pay for respects."
Funny take aside, the title itself has been doing really well with fans despite its rocky launch with server issues. With the social space now in full effect, and more in-game items on the way, "Saving Profit Margin" er ... Call of Duty WWII is a breath of fresh air from the recent onslaught of super futuristic narratives to bring what many loved about the first few games in the series back to life: a solid FPS.
Call of Duty WWII is now available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.

lbreadstickl Haven't played in about 3 weeks. They've forgotten how to make good maps, and zombies was fun but only 1 map? Or 1 1/2 if you beat the quests and stuff. I just don't get it anymore
All of the new Call of Duty maps are small maps with 3 routes each, where you get shot in the back on every other corner. It's boring, I wish they would bring back the map sizes they used to have in MW2 and WaW.

I just really can't stand the maps. I miss the old map styles from Cod 4, WAW, and MW2 for example. But maybe thats just me.

Every CoD starts out with one map? You get more as they release DLC, which has always been a thing since the first Zombies mode.
Personally, the game could have been better sure. But this trailer doesn't seem honest. I feel it was biased. All they really did for the first chunk was compare it to real life. Obviously in a video game where you storm a beach, you'd die pretty quick. But that wouldn't be fun in a game if you died and couldn't continue at all.
As for the Loot Boxes, at least(from what I have gotten) it is all costmetic items. You don't get a new gun that has super buffs or anything, so that isn't an issue with the community IMO.
Zombies could be better, but at least it's scarier now than when you were 'Disco Ninjas' and sh^t rollerblading around the map...That was a joke.
