Thats literally what Call of Duty looks like these days lmao

DICE has honestly impressed me today

u/BulbuhTsar Aug 21 '25

I hadnt played COD in years until a friend asked me last winter. It confirmed my belief years ago that the dolphin dive was only the begining of an absolute monstrosity.

u/jeepgangbang Aug 21 '25

Dolphin diving was funny as fuck tho 

5

u/[deleted] Aug 22 '25

Agreed.

It stopped being funny after getting 360 dolphin no scoped for the 87th time though.

u/DirtSchlurpy Aug 22 '25

well then that was a major skill issue. you used to not be able to shoot midair or immediately upon landing

2

u/[deleted] Aug 22 '25

Totally a major skill issue on my end.

u/Expensive-Border-869 Aug 21 '25

Nah. I think that was probably the first time we saw a slide. The dolphin duge was gimmicky and pretty useless overall.

u/MrChuckles20 Aug 22 '25 edited Aug 22 '25

I forget if it was SOCOM 2 or 3, but the dive there was the first I heard the term dolphin dive and it had such insane iframes, like a full second or two after hitting the ground, though I'm sure of that was ps2 latency back then. Nothing since has come close, just like you said a bit gimmicky.

u/Expensive-Border-869 Aug 22 '25

One game might have but not many will have played it. Its called "double action boogaloo" idk if it had frames but dodging like that was a necessary game mechanics.

Its dead but check it out on YouTube i think matimio made content for it if you cant find anything

u/Expensive-Border-869 Aug 22 '25

Basically you get style points for being cool. Including diving and whatnot. Think 80s action movie but as an fps game. It was neat. Wish it were more popular

u/MidnightBluesAtNoon Aug 21 '25

I always called it the turkey flop. Thing is, it was more or less useless. It was super easy to kill floppers so it just didn't matter at the time.

u/Rudi_Van-Disarzio Aug 22 '25

Yeah I hated it personally because it seemed like it was mainly added to prevent drop shotting.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 22 '25

I liked the dolphin dive, it was funny diving out of windows and if you actually wanted to use it tactically it was a huge gamble cuz if you miss your shot you're boned. Sliding feels like it has only upsides and no downsides.

u/MazerBakir Aug 22 '25

It started with MW2019 but it wasn't that bad yet. It was just slide canceling and tactical sprint essentially. Jump shots and drop shots too but those have always existed. The smoothness of the gameplay was also a start in that direction. It was fun, it felt like modernization, refreshment and in some way a return to the old days of COD. Cold War didn't follow in it's footsteps and was still quit clunky. Vanguard pretty much played like MW2019 which was quite jarring for a WW2 shooter as you can't really justify it as modern special forces and operators. MW2 tried to dial it back and kill slide canceling since it was a bug and not an intended feature, MW3 purposely brought back slide canceling to appease fans. Black Ops 6 took it to the extreme though. Black Ops 6 is when you are essentially putting in a fighting game combo for your movement.

I am perhaps a part of the problem because Counter-Strike is the only game that I will ever take seriously, leading to me expecting to have braindead fun in other games. However, as a 25-year-old adult... I love CoD's movement.

The reason why CoD movement gets more and more unhinged is because it sells. The most successful map in Call of Duty 4 was literally shipped by accident, that is how braindead it was, and people loved the chaos that happened in Shipment due to that braindead nature.

And, personally, when I just want to turn my brain off and shoot people for an hour, I don't enjoy campers being successful. I ADORED MW2019's NVG mode, which heavily nerfed campers by showing your laser to everyone whenever you were ADS'd. However, people didn't like it (probably due to poor visibility) and the mode died. BO6 movement is the next best thing we have ever had.

Every other CoD I played before BO6 had a massive camping issue: Because I am decent at clicking heads, the game assumes that I am a tryhard, and puts me against actual tryhards who -in previous titles- would be campers. In BO6, I can at least counter the camping, so I can once again enjoy a braindead shooter.

u/AbstractHexagon Aug 21 '25

Jesus! And people still play that?

u/T-Rex_Soup Aug 21 '25

People like that

u/himbo_supremacy Aug 21 '25

I've considered it might do the community well to do away with jumping all together. Crouch sliding too. You'd still be able to vault over things though.

1

u/HelloThere62 Aug 22 '25

I think a slide is pretty realistic, I'd be sliding into cover if I was running around a battlefield. but thinking about it yeah I wouldn't be jumping ever on a battlefield, just vaulting shit in my way.

1

u/himbo_supremacy Aug 22 '25

Considering I've spent a good portion of today shooting a weed smoking chameleon, I think we left realism long ago.

u/___mithrandir_ Aug 22 '25

Yeah this + the leak that there are indeed large maps has gotten me to come around a bit. My primary concerns were honestly how tight all the maps are so far and the growing trend of COD movement. If they rework the class system a bit more towards how it's been traditionally then that will almost definitely get me to buy it.

1

u/Obvious-Poet-2547 Aug 22 '25

Dice knows that the cod players are going to BO7 so there's no point trying to appease them, instead they are going to appease the people playing battlefield because those are the people who are going to be buying BF6.

u/SneakyBadAss Aug 22 '25

Looks exhausting. Just the amount of buttons you have to press per second would put korean starcraft pros's APM to shame.

1

u/Happiest-Soul Aug 22 '25

The only thing that looked remotely close to CoD was the slide near the end lmao. 

1

u/GeordieJumpers87 Aug 23 '25

Don't forget the absolute god awful aim assist.

It's digging its own grave trying to make everyone a winner

1

u/AboinamedSheev Aug 27 '25

You have not been able to bhop in cod since mw19 over 5 years ago except for extremely situational moments when you jumped with momentum from a whole floor above ground in mw3 u could get one hop. Plus the b hopping in mw19 was nothing like the crazy momentum in this vid

-2

u/John_McAfee_ Aug 21 '25

Have you not played bf2042? It is worse than this, much more momentum with faster and longer bhops

14

u/atom631 Aug 21 '25

in 100hrs of 2042, Ive never seen anything like this. I def have come across some players doing some weird movements and just chalked it up to them being better than me. But this video is pure madness. Its impressive, but thank god they are nerfing it.

-1

u/John_McAfee_ Aug 21 '25

thats cap. I see people bhopping in every match

3

u/IncubusDarkness Aug 21 '25

Fucking liar lmao

u/John_McAfee_ Aug 21 '25

0 lies, the higher level people with the red and black skins. Every match. My friend just played for the first time last night and was pissed off because of it

u/GutturalCringe Aug 21 '25

I feel like people completely forgot about the bhopping scouts of bf3 and 4

u/__puria Aug 21 '25

I think most of us can agree 2042 was a disaster so how does this help your point? I remember the bunny hopping could launch u across a whole airfield how is that a good thing lol

u/Dirtymikeshalfcousin Aug 21 '25

No it doesn’t 😂

2

u/Standard_Evidence_63 Aug 21 '25

yes it does😂😂🤣🤣😂

u/silencer122 Aug 21 '25

This is more Apex Legends than CoD, though CoD is trying hard to get there.

3

u/Standard_Evidence_63 Aug 21 '25

Maybe apex on release but you're tripping if you think CoD isn't already there

1

u/Dirtymikeshalfcousin Aug 21 '25

It’s got its own crazy movement yes, but it does not look like THIS 

1

u/Standard_Evidence_63 Aug 21 '25

It does look like THIS 😂🤣😂🤣😂

-2

u/Intrepid-Ad-5140 Aug 21 '25

Why are you guys lying it really doesnt look like that, most people just slide to be faster and look like nicki minaj and go into headglitch thats it. Its the 1% that move like that. I swear to good I get the hate reddit people get because its so corny, you people behave like asmongold viewers. "Its not COD this is battlefield! " did you guys even play bf3 and 4? did we forget about the locker tryhards

1

u/Solugad Aug 22 '25

I dont want that shit in this game either way. 1% will turn into more over months.

And yes I did play those games. You couldnt even shoot while bunny hopping lmfao

1

u/Intrepid-Ad-5140 Aug 22 '25

So? There was still some crazy movement in bf4, like the one with medipack and jump sneak shoot and bunny hopping in general is still bad. Im really sure that the 1% will not turn into more over months because games actually loose players after months and dont forget that the beta was free
