  • Welcome to episode #194 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we give our thoughts on the return to round based zombies in Black Ops 6. We have two new maps to unpack and share what our first impressions are of having played these maps after a long time away from classic zombies. With this return, there are some familiar concepts that have made a return, as well as some new improvements that have made it that much better. We give our thoughts on these changes, and if we feel they should be staples to COD going forward, and some things that many zombie players are yearning for to return. With two maps at launch, we let you know our favorite of the two, and talk about the journey to complete the easter eggs.

    What do you think of the new zombie experience? Do you feel it does round based zombies justice, or does it not feel the same anymore? Which is your favorite of the two maps, and why? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

  • Welcome to episode #193 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    The wait is finally over, as Black Ops 6 has officially launched! We have been playing nonstop since its release, and are beyond excited to share our experience with the game so far. We cover our first impressions on all aspects of the game. From the maps, to the guns and prestige, we give our opinion on what we think of the game overall from day one. Lots of discussion has been about the quality of the maps, and whether they live up to the hype that has been associated with Treyarch maps. We go over the maps, and what we think is the best move going forward for both casual and competitive for map rotation. Finally, we close with some tweaks we would like to see going forward, and share our excitement to start up the campaign and zombies mode.

    What do you think of Black Ops 6 so far? Are you a fan of the new maps and weapons? Do you agree with the thought that these maps aren’t good, or do you like all of them? What is your go-to weapon currently, and what level are you right now? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

  • Welcome to episode #191 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we come to our final talks on our hustle to the end of MWIII, as we prepare for our final review of MWIII for next week's episode! We also jump into some more developing CDL news as time goes on, and more teams options are now running low with big players locked down. We focus this episode on a topic relating to a law being passed regarding the understanding that we do not own digital properties related to gaming and entertainment. We debate the pros and cons of both, and what we think will be the way going forward. Along with this, a discussion has started about online games “expiring” due to servers being shut down, and if this is right, especially after spending $60 on a game. We cover both sides, and give our opinion on the matter.

    What are your thoughts on the debate over digital vs. physical games? Do you exclusively buy one over the other, or no? Should there be no expiration date on a game that you purchased, or is it part of knowing that you don’t own the game? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week in our final MWIII review.

  • Welcome to episode #190 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we share our woes and struggles with closing out season 6 and MWIII altogether. We are in the final stretch of hitting the max level, and giving ourselves some much needed time to relax before starting up Black Ops 6. We are preparing for our end of year review with MWIII, and will have much to say regarding gameplay, maps, and overall fatigue. We share some thoughts as we come to the end of the game, and also some ideas that hopefully Treyarch uses to help reward those who make it to the end, as we share our annoyances with the lack of rewards for the long grind. We close with some CDL talk, as some big rumors have been confirmed, leaving big questions for the bottom teams. We share our opinions on these confirmed moves, and our predictions for other teams.

    Do you agree that there aren’t enough awards and incentives to grind to the end of COD in recent years? What do you think should be given as a reward for hitting max level? What do you think about the confirmed and rumored CDL rosters? Are there any that are sleeper teams? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

  • Welcome to episode #188 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we have concluded our time with the Black Ops 6 beta, and are back on MWIII, as season 5 draws to a close and we are in the final season of the game. We haven’t given up on the game, and intend to hit the 1250 max level to put a stamp of finality on MWIII before our end game review. With season 6, there are lots of exciting collabs to look forward to, and also some questionable map “additions” for the Halloween theme this season is based around. We cover each part of the season 6 roadmap, and compare how it stacks up to previous seasons. Finally, we end with some updates regarding the CDL, with some potential big shake ups that could happen if the rumors prove true.

    Are you going to be playing season 6? If so, what do you think about the new maps that we are getting, and how do they compare to what we have gotten in previous seasons? Will you be hitting max level, or are you done with COD until Black Ops 6? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

  • Welcome to episode #187 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we discuss our experience with the open beta, a full week after our first impressions from the early access beta. We get to see some new additions with a new level cap with more to unlock, new maps, modes, and some tweaks made along the way. We compare from what we played during week 1, and share what we think are the biggest takeaways from it. We go over some important changes we think may impact the future of the game and potentially the CDL, as well as some parts of the game we wonder what the future will look like. We got a glimpse at the new face off and gunfight modes, and how these may be where the future of the casual fanbase will gravitate towards, as some say this is what Call of Duty is moving towards; quick games on small maps for high xp. We discuss this point and if we think COD is moving this way.

    What were your thoughts on the 2nd week of the beta? If you did not play the first week, give us your first impressions on the game! What do you think of the new face off and gunfight modes/maps? What do you think about the take discussed on the future of the casual fanbase in COD? Do you think it is moving in this direction or not? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

  • Welcome to episode #186 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we unpack everything from the early access beta food Black Ops 6. It is finally here, and we have lots to unpack on every aspect of the game. From the maps to the modes, guns and omnimovement, we share our thoughts on each of these, and give the pros and cons to both that we have experienced so far. Lots of people have their complaints, and many have praised the game so far, but we need to understand that this is only a beta. More than likely lots will change from the early access to the open beta, and thus at launch.

    What are your impressions of the game so far after a week of changes? Are there still issues you’re seeing that worry you, or do you think most will be fixed? What do you believe are the strongest points of the game so far, and the weakest? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

  • Welcome to episode #185 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we are getting ready for the Black Ops 6 early access beta! The anticipation for this game has been at an all time high, and in recent years, this may be the most hyped COD we have seen. We have Call of Duty Next doing a showcase as well, so we hope to see more on what is coming for that event, as well as get some insight into warzone, zombies, and campaign. We share our thoughts on what we expect from the beta. We have ideas as to what will be in this beta, and we break down each point, as well as making sure everyone understands this is only a beta! We hope it continues to get even better, but be sure to not rush to judgment!

    What did you think of the beta overall? Were there things you did not expect? Does it feel like every other COD to you, or does this year feel different? What were some of your favorite and least favorite parts? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

  • Welcome to episode #184 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, the EWC has come to an end, and we have our first World Cup Champion in Call of Duty! We break down each day of the event, the matches, and ultimately how the event came to a conclusion. There were some big upsets amongst the top 4 teams from CDL Champs, as well as some teams that made huge improvements to their game. We discuss how these moments may impact the next CDL season, with some potential roster changes coming up. Along with this, we share the news of the Modern Warfare 2 Multiplayer mod being shut down by Activision. This came as a surprise to many, but unfortunately it is not unexpected from Activision’s track history with mods to their games. We share our thoughts on this, and the possibility of any mods in the future.

    What did you think of the EWC event? Is there anything the CDL should learn from this event, and what do you think EWC can improve upon? Did you plan to play the H2M mod for Mw2? Do you think Activision should change the decision or not? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

    In this episode, we have lots of news to unpack regarding Black Ops 6 zombies, with major details as to what we will see at launch, including two maps, weapons, abilities, and more. We have some big changes coming to zombies for this year, and we are very excited to see how these changes impact the future of zombies.

We break this down as well, and share our thoughts on how we think this remaster will fare as time goes on.

    What do you think of Black Ops 6 zombies from what we have seen? Are you happy with what they have kept and what they are removing? Do you think this is a step in the right direction for zombies or not? Also, will you be playing the Modern Warfare 2 Remaster when it launches, or will you be skipping out on it?

  • Welcome to episode #182 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we have some major leaks from Black Ops 6, and these honestly came out of nowhere. We have leaks every year from Call of Duty, however this one was extensive, as we got multiple maps confirmed, a first hand look at omni-movement, as well as a variety of weapons confirmed. We break down everything that we saw and give our thoughts on each main point, as well as open some discussions if the steps Treyarch is taking will change COD forever, or simply be a one-off. We share our thoughts on this discussion, as well as what we hope to see from Black Ops 6 before we get the beta which is at the end of this month. What did you think of the Black Ops 6 leaks? Did anything stand out to you? Is this a COD that old fans should make a return for, or is it going to be more of the same? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

  • Welcome to episode #181 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, there is a lot to cover. Firstly, we share our initial thoughts on season 5 of MWIII, focusing on the maps and overall direction with the seasons, as we only have one more until we get Black Ops 6. With this new season, there were some issues regarding the Ricochet anti-cheat, and an influx of hackers came with it. We talk about the potential of this happening again, as well as the possibility that the Xbox Game Pass could have had something to do with it, with MWIII being free to play. Finally, we talk about the upcoming EWC, as teams have officially locked their rosters, and we have seen some interesting moves with the lower teams, wondering if they will stick with this team for the 2025 CDL season or not.

    What are your thoughts on season 5 so far? Is there anything missing for it that you thought should have been in it? Have you come across hackers in Warzone or Multiplayer? If so, what do you think of our ideas for dealing with hacking in COD? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

  • Welcome to episode #180 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we are coming off of the week of COD Champs, with OpTic Texas being the 2024 CDL World Champions! We recap the weekend, the surprises throughout, and what this means for OpTic and the other teams currently in the league as we prepare for EWC and for next season in Black Ops 6. Along with this, season 5 of MWIII has arrived, and we break down the roadmap, specifically the new maps, guns, and modes that we will be seeing throughout. We give our initial thoughts on these, as well as an overview of how the content level has been within this COD title, and if they have gotten better or worse as the year has gone on.

    Did you watch COD Champs? If so, what did you think about the games overall, and our opinions on some of the teams? What teams do you think will be making changes, and which will stay the same? If you are playing in season 5, do you agree with our assessment, or do you feel differently? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

  • Welcome to episode #179 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we are coming to the end of season 4, as well as the last tournament for the CDL, with COD Champs being just around the corner from the time of recording, and then we go into the off-season, and players/teams will more than likely find new homes for next year. We got announcements from the Breach regarding their roster, and questions are arising as to who will be on the team next year, and how they can work on improving from this year. Along with this, we have season 4 coming to an end in MWIII, and season 5 on the horizon. We share some leaks and announcements so far, and look forward to its release on July 24th. Finally, we share our thoughts on the cheating that occurred in the World Series of Warzone, and how no matter what happens, we continue to see hacking make its way into big tournaments.

    What are your predictions for the off-season with the Breach? What’s an ideal roster you wish we could have going into Black Ops 6? Are you going to be playing season 5, or are you done after watching COD Champs? What should be the penalty for the hacker at the WSOW? Is Activision really working hard to prevent hacking in their games or not? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

We cover how Major IV concluded, as well as some of the big surprises that have us left with lots of questions before COD Champs.

  • Welcome to episode #176 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we take a deep dive into what’s been going on in the CDL. We are rounding the corner to champs, and we have a serious race going on amongst the teams at the cutoff for champs. Every team is within just a few points of one another, and there are 4 teams that won’t be fighting for that championship at the end. We share our thoughts and predictions for the end of the year, as well as discussing some of the difficulties that the Boston Breach faced this year. In a year where we were expecting the most success, we struggled for wins and our out of champs. We cover some of the moves during the year and get into what may have contributed to this difficult year for the team.

    Who do you think will be crowned the 2024 Call of Duty Champions? Who do you think is not going to qualify for champs, and why? Do you have a team that you are rooting for overall, or a team in the fight for champs that you hope to see there? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.

  • Welcome to episode #175 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

    In this episode, we answer a question that has come up from time to time in the COD world, and it comes after seeing all the new changes with Black Ops 6. Is Call of Duty getting better or worse? We share our answer to this question, which is not one that can be answered with a simple yes or no. We go over what time we think COD was the best, and when we believe it started to get worse over time. This can relate to movement, maps, developer support, and anything else that may impact the experience of COD for you. We give our thoughts on all of these and more on the topic.

    Do you think COD is getting better or worse? What were the best years in the COD franchise, and what were the worst years? Do you think Black Ops 6 is going to be the start of something great, or a continuation of the same stuff we have seen in the past few years? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.
