| 14 Oct 2024 | MW3 SEASON 6 THE FINALE | DIGITAL VS PHYSICAL GAMES | The COD Casuals Ep. 191 | 01:14:07 | |
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 #156 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, we get ready for all the big updates and additions that are coming with season 2 of MWIII. Prior to this, there have been updates regarding hardpoint rotations, as well as some gun buffs and nerfs, and this will be even more prevalent with the start of season 2. We break down the roadmap that has been shown to us, and go over the pros and cons of it. Lots of new content for us on the multiplayer side, but not as good of news for zombies fans, as well as for us who are hoping for more raid episodes in MWIII. So far Sledgehammer has delivered on lots of good content, and we hope they keep this up with future seasons. What are your thoughts on some of the new maps and weapons in season 2? Are you a fan of them? What do you think about our replacing Terminal with Rio for ranked play? Is it a good or bad move? What other updates should come to make the game better in your opinion? 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 #56 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, the grind of season 2 and of everything vanguard has still been our top priority.

What is the reasoning for these lack of fixes to the game, and new content coming to the game? If the game is going to rise up to being a better game than it first was, these updates need to come in ASAP! Do you think Vanguard has been lacking updates and fixes as well?

| 06 Jan 2025 | DO GAMERS GET BETTER AS THEY AGE? | BLACK OPS 6 DOUBLE XP | The COD Casuals Ep. 203 | 01:14:08 | |
Welcome to episode #203 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In the first episode 2025, we start off with our recap of one of our biggest grind times during Black Ops 6, with a full week of double XP. We have put in plenty of hours, and with COD being in a tough state at the moment, we share our experience with the game, and compare it to those who have not been having the best time. Along with this, our discussion shifts towards skill and game knowledge as you age. Do players get better as they age, or worse? This discussion has carried into the CDL at times, and lends itself to the casual player base who may give up on a game as they get older and “worse”. What level are you currently in BO6? Are you still grinding out the levels, or are you waiting until ranked play is fixed? What are your opinions on your skill diminishing as you get older? Do you feel you’ve become a smarter player overall, or has gaming become more difficult for you over the 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.

Welcome to episode #195 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, we have gotten our first week of double xp, as well as the return of the much anticipated Nuketown! We have been on the grind during the weekend, and give our take on how we feel Nuketown fits into this title, and if it lives up to the hype or not. Along with this new map, some new maps are incoming to season 1, and the debate is stirring if these will be some maps to help the map pool, or be more of the same that many have complained about. We wrap up on some talks regarding SBMM, and other in game patches that are now live, and share how we think these will impact the game. Did you hop in the Nuketown 24/7 playlist? Do you like Nuketown, or do you think it’s overrated? What do you think about our opinion on skill-based matchmaking? Do you notice it a lot in this game or is it not an issue for you? Finally, do you think the new maps are going to save the map pool, or will we have to wait until we get remasters to save us? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

| 10 Jul 2023 | MW2 SEASON 4 UPDATES & XDEFIANT | The COD Casuals Ep. 125 | 01:11:03 | |
Welcome to episode #125 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, we continue covering our progress within season 4 of MWII, as well as a topic surrounding hype for future COD titles. Some have already given up on MWIII, and are looking forward to the next in the series from Treyarch, coming in 2024. We give our takes on this thought process, as well as the notion that XDefiant is coming in as a replacement for COD to some. With this shift, there has been lots of hacking on all levels in MWII, and this is definitely a result of support dwindling down for this game as we come closer to the end of the game. What are your thoughts on switching titles during the MWII season, and the thought of skipping MWIII for the next COD game made by Treyarch? Do you buy and play COD regardless of what is included in the game, or do you wait until after it is released? Have you looked into xDefiant? Do you see it as a replacement for COD in the future? 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 #108 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! With ranked being our main focus, and the focus of the majority of those within the COD community, we discuss how this has had a greater impact on the game beyond just the ranked play lobbies. With this, lots of Warzone creators have started to switch over for the time being, and Warzone remains lackluster, with lots of updates and patches that need to come its way sooner rather than later. More content is being pushed around regarding multiplayer and ranked than ever before, and wonder how this will affect the other half of COD that has been dominant for years. Have you been strictly playing ranked play, or have you been switching between ranked and warzone? If you are mainly a warzone player, what are your thoughts on the current state of the game, especially compared to Warzone 1? Do you think this is only temporary, or will this continue if nothing is done on the side of Warzone? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

This season has some new things that we are excited for, such as new maps and guns, but a bigger talk is brought up. Has IW let us down with what is included in these seasons?

With this reset, we share our final ranked placing and experience as we look towards the reset and start from the beginning once again. What are your thoughts on the season 5 roadmap? Do you feel that they have been lackluster, or are you satisfied with what has been included? What is your opinion on the remastered maps?

| 18 Jul 2022 | WHICH IS BETTER?: CALL OF DUTY PRESTIGE SYSTEM | The COD Casuals Ep. 74 | 00:54:13 | |
Welcome to episode #74 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, we continue comparing the old vs. the new, and this time the topic shifts towards prestige systems. From COD 4 to Black Ops 4, the original prestige system was used and built upon to have the casuals and hardcore players grind to show off their uinque prestige logo and level. In recent years and going forward, the prestige system has changed to being locked into seasons, hindering the amount that you can grind for. Both have their pros and cons, and players who support one or the other. Of the two systems, which one is your favorite? Why do you prefer one over the other, and is there any way that they could combine both systems? Do you feel the same level of grind and pride with your prestige in the new system compared to the old system? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Welcome to episode #107 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, the focus remains on ranked play. With it now being out for a few weeks and pushing a month, many players are starting to say that this is becoming one of the best ranked systems that we have experienced in COD for quite some time. We would absolutely agree with this, as we cover our experience, as well as our current rank. Despite this being the case for us, we do cover some big issues that could come down the line, as well as the difference in experience from console to PC. With that being said, we also cover the news of Nintendo getting involved in COD, as it will release on their platforms in the future. We close out with some more leaks and news regarding the sequel to MWII, and give our thoughts. Let us know what rank you are so far, and what your goal is for season 2 ranked play! Are you generally playing solo, or do you have a squad of 3 or 4? Has your ranked play experience been similar to ours or different? Give us your thoughts on Nintendo coming into COD, as well as MWIII. Are you excited with the recent developments, or did you wish they went in another direction?

Along with this, a lot of the community has been hooked on the old Call of Duty titles that have now been fixed so they are playable. Though this is great for the community as a whole, is it something Microsoft will cash out on? What do you think of our opinions on what should be kept and scrapped for MWIII? Is there anything we missed that you think is important to keep for the next title? What are your thoughts on Microsoft potentially introducing microtransactions to these old CODs to make money off them? Will they do this, or leave them alone? 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 #199 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, we continue our coverage of ranked play, and with new maps being added in with season 1 reloaded coming up, we are going to have some potential changes coming to ranked in the near future, and for the better. Our main topic today is surrounding the topic of if COD needs to evolve, as some are saying that Black Ops 6 is good, but a “step in the wrong direction”. We break down this argument, and if we think this a valid argument or not. Finally, we end with some discussion about the CDL, as we are only a few days away from the opening weekend, and have lots of new teams and room for potential upsets. We share our thoughts on the matches and give our predictions. What do you think about Hacienda coming into ranked play in the future? Does it need to be added or should it replace a map such as Red Card? What do you think about the topic of COD needing to evolve? Does it need to change, or is it being the same thing every year that fans look forward to? Finally, what were your predictions after week 1 of the CDL?

With COD in a tough state, is this where effort should be focused towards with the CDL?

We break down the main team’s placements and if we believe a change is in order. Which teams do you believe are going to make a change first? Is there any team that is safe? What are your predictions for Major 1? What did you think about our talk on the CDL infrastructure? What more should they be doing, and what should they shift focus off of?

Welcome to episode #143 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! We finally have our hands on MWIII!

We cover each aspect, and give our opinions on the campaign as a whole, and are curious what you think about our rating. What did you think about the campaign? Did you feel the same way we did about it, or do you disagree? What are some of your biggest issues with it, and what would you rate it from 0-10? Do you think they milk this story with another few entries in the series around these characters, or do they do 1 more game and end it? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

We cover the final grind that was in place, and go into the difficulties and rewards you get for putting in all that time, and not having much in the way of rewards. We open up a discussion regarding the new vs. old prestige systems, and why most people don’t bother hitting the max level anymore in COD. With that being said, we talk about our upcoming episode for the MWII review, where we will cover every aspect of the game, and give our final review in season 3 of the COD Casuals before starting up Season 4 with the launch of MWIII. Be sure to be on the lookout for episode 142! What level did you reach in MWII? Did you hit max level, or did you stop playing long ago?

Welcome to episode #153 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!

In the meantime, the CDL teams have released their 2024 packs, and you know we are talking about the Boston Breach’s skin, and how we do wish teams had more creative freedom with these overall designs, whether it be character skins or camos. We also have news that an anti-cheat is being developed, titled “Splat”. We aren’t sure when it will be released, but we hope it is during the early stages of ranked play to help make the first couple weeks a more enjoyable experience for everyone, and especially into the future. Are you planning on buying a CDL team pack? Which one is your favorite and why? Do you agree with our thoughts on blueprints, and how they should be available for all guns and not just one? Do you think this anti-cheat will deliver, or will hackers still be easy to come across and spot? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Welcome to episode #126 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, we got some news heading into the last few months of MWII, with some questionable moves that have left us wondering what is next for season 5.

However, we delve into a bigger issue regarding these bundles, and why we never end up buying them, despite us liking what’s included in them. A few new maps have also made their way into season 4 reloaded, and this raises another issue with us as to what was promised from the beginning of the game, as we share our hopes for the final season of Modern Warfare II. What are your thoughts on season 4 reloaded? Are you excited for the new map and bundles, or are you going to continue playing as if this update never happened? What are your thoughts on our opinions regarding the new map, and the price tag these bundles have had in this COD and in recent CODs? What is your biggest wish for season 5 to close out MWII?

Welcome to episode #101 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional! In this episode, we cover some news that has come to Modern Warfare 2, and one unfortunate one being the removal of control from any playlist. For new listeners, Control has always been our main game mode in COD, so we anxiously await it’s return…hopefully sooner rather than later. With that being said, we are quickly approaching the release of season 2 in February, and hope for control to be a permanent fixture, along with some new maps, and the return of faceoff. Lots of new things to keep our fingers crossed for with the season 2 launch! Are you as upset as us about control being removed from the game? Do you think it should be its own playlist, or should it be added to the quickplay list? What old maps do you want to be added with season 2? Do you want more old maps, or more new maps?
