This collaboration is very unlikely because: with chapter 5, they wanted to make the game more realistic 1) The weapons are taken from real life 2) they wanted to make the movement realistic to make the game smoother 3)i think they wanted to add a new "tanky" vehicle because the map is very empty in some areas I would be surprised if they actually collaborate, but activision should first work on their game and fix all the wrongs things with it, then maybe we could talk about a possible collaboration
It's not far fetched at all. Especially with how similar they are now mechanically. Tac sprint, mantling, vaulting, sliding, the new attachments, they feel a bit TOO similar. Hell, even the train, pretty sure WZ1 had that 1st. And now the riot shield? One of the most infamous weapons in COD history?
call of duty and fortnite have kind of rocky history thanks to the fps glitch but then again among us and fortnite had a rocky history but they still colab
I'm quite doubtful, and most of these theories are coincidences at best. 1) A first person mode has been leaked in the game files since around early chapter 3 2) Weapon designs are mostly (if not all) inspired by real life weapons. The AA-12 is a quite well known weapon for instance. 3) The armored car that was added is mostly based on the Mercedes G-Wagon, and I think that's really just about it. 4) Call of Duty is currently a direct competitor to Fortnite, due to Warzone. It wouldn't really make sense to partner with a rival game, especially when Activision is at the forefront. 5) The new animations were either added just to make Chapter 5 a bit more unique, or what I believe to be that they were added to make the game a bit more fresh feeling Most of these counter-arguements is for the battle royale aspect of Call of Duty. However, CoD Zombies isn't entirely impossible, as the zombies mode is completely different from Warzone, or even traditional multiplayer. Iconic and memorable characters, with memorable weapons (ray gun cough cough), yeah, that could be possible. But for the traditional style of Call of Duty (warzone, campaign, multiplayer), I highly doubt it. Don't get me wrong, I think a Call of Duty collaboration would be really cool to see, but I wouldn't expect anything like that for the foreseeable future.
You have definitely made some strong counterpoints here. I love the zombies idea! I should have added a section on how that might be more relevant to Fortnite/compete less with COD.
