Feeling Frustrated...

Introduction:
Hey guys! I'm new to the forums and just wanted to get on here to chat with some other call of duty players about the current years World War 2 game. I'm prestige 4 rank 30 so I've put some serious playing time into the game but I'm not sure how much longer I can enjoyably play this title. I've played almost every Call of Duty since Modern Warfare and am contemplating not buying the season pass this year. Below I'll outline all of my reasons for being frustrated with the game and you can agree or disagree.

Really Bad Score Streaks:
This is why we play a Call of Duty game! A lot of people play for scorestreaks but in this game it's nearly impossible to get the good ones without the requisitions basic training. Hell even with requisitions you cant get the really good ones half of the time. Once you do get them they don't even do anything anyway. I got paratroopers the other day and they got 0 kills. Not one kill. The flying plane streak is so weak that your lucky to get a single kill out of that unless you play hardcore as well. The Ball Turret Gunner has way too much recoil. It shakes everywhere and is really hard to control. Its suppose to be the best streak in the game but I genuinely feel like it doesn't live up to the hype around it. Too many buildings for aerial streaks too. I want to feel rewarded for getting these things and I just don't.

Team Death Match Only 75 Kills:
Not too much to say here other than I want 100 kills per match back to win. Black Ops 3 had it. Infinite Warfare had it. Why doesn't World War 2? That's a part of the reason you cant get good streaks as well. There just aren't enough kills to go around. I feel cheated when I just get a good streak and the game is over because I got it when my team or the other team was at 73 kills already. Beyond frustrating. Only when I play Kill Confirmed do I ever get the decent streaks so I'm stuck playing one mode lol?

Domination Kills Only 50 Points:
Just one more reason you cant get decent streaks. I try to play the objective don't get me wrong. 50 points a kill though? This is just unacceptable. It takes an act of god to get anything decent in this or any game more for that matter. I think 100 points a kill is what most of the community wants anyway.

No Variety In the Weapons:
I literally only ever use 8 weapons in this game. It just depends on the game mode and the map. I use the Bar, the STG 44, and the M1941 in the assault rifles category. That's it. I only use the MP40, the M1928, and the PPSH 41 in the SMG category. I almost never use an LMG because they don't fit my play style. I only use the Kar98k as a sniper rifle. Why use any of the others? I only use the Combat Shotgun in the last category. Worst Shotguns I've ever seen in a Call of Duty game. I feel like I'm forced to play with only the best guns because of the matchmaking to put it as simply as possible.

Health Regeneration:
God forbid you get hit with a single bullet in this game when you win a gunfight. You might jump in get 1-3 kills and then get instakilled right after because it takes too damn long to recover. I don't want to have to go hide somewhere for 8 seconds before continuing my killing spree. It's beyond aggravating and needs addressed. Slowest regeneration time ever I believe.

Final Thoughts:
When I play Call Of Duty I want to have fun. This game basically takes everything fun out of the gameplay. Useless or unattainable score streaks. No weapon variety. Terrible team balancing. I feel like I'm playing in a controlled environment where there's a deliberate attempt to manipulate how well your actually able to perform in the game. It's like they want everyone to be barely negative, breaking even, or barely positive as far as your kill death ratio. I don't feel like my skill level has anything to do with how well I perform in the game or even if we win or not because of the team balancing. I'm always playing against an opponent as good or better than me with all scrubs underneath. I wish they'd leave how good or bad I do up to how well I play during any given game. Don't match me up with sweats every game that limit my weapon choices to only the guns that work the best or kill the fastest.

Overall Review Call Of Duty World War 2:
6/10. Playable until something better is released later in the year. I'm hoping Treyarch knocks it out of the park this next year. I prefer Black Ops 3 to this honestly. They just did too much wrong and honestly I don't think that the developer will ever change any of these things that I mentioned. It's more about the supply drops than making a playable game now sadly. Thoughts?

Welcome to CODForums! :)
You and I, both have played since COD4.

I mean, we play Call of Duty, and Scorestreaks are just a cherry on top. I did play Call of Duty because of the scorestreaks, but they were a fun factor part of the game, and I agree. The scorestreaks suck in WWII. And trying to attain the streaks are harder than ever before. I rarely get scorestreaks, but I DO love War. For me, those turrets on the beaches of Neptune was more or less a "killstreak." They are fun. And the opposing area, where the ships are, that was a great place to snipe.

War is a good mode, try that.

That's the drawback of going back to World War 2. No weapon variety. Modern Warfare had variety, it only needed DLC weapons, which Modern Warfare Remastered corrected, pretty much. However, the way to get new weapons is by getting all of the "Collections" in that class. So, if you collected all the cards in one weapon class, you get a new weapon, wear gear, or equipment. It's a reward for doing actions by getting more Amory Credits. This is why you don't see the new weapons. But its there. DO NOT buy microtransactions if you do not want to spend real money. Just get more and more Armory Credits, and spend it on the collections to get a new weapon, equipment or clothing.

And the movement system in the game doesn't help, either. I can run and gun, but for some reason, I can't rush like I did in Modern Warfare. I feel like they got the movement system and the regen system to work for the worse. I liked Advanced Warfare, and I like the team at Sledgehammer Games, but I can't even play the game the way I want to.

It's not Sledgehammer Games' fault. Blame that on Activision. Sledgehammer Games wanted to make Advanced Warfare 2, but changed gears once Activision stepped in and said "We need to do a World War 2 game." Well, if you wanted a fucking World War 2 game, you should've told Sledgehammer Games sooner! I mean, it's like they never learned from the issues with Black Ops 3 - people obviously didn't like the futuristic setting from the day BO3 was revealed. Players let it go, but with Infinite Warfare? They were in for a rude awakening, and it showed. It's like, they didn't even pay attention or didn't want to listen.
