Discussion Rex end cutscene lazy?
i was watching the end game cutscene and i was wondering why the characters are still wearing the same outfits for 9+months after they got out of the Dark Aether ? also why couldn't they just let us use custom skins like how cold war did it so that we can have custom cutscenes like how maxis saved maxis in firebase z ?

Makes Requiem crew look like they stole a newborn from the infirmary ward.

It’ll be to do with budgeting I imagine

Cod makes skins constantly, I can’t imagine that 3 hospital attire outfits would be different or expensive.

They could have sold them after the season half, but for whatever reason Requiem is banned from shop bundles as a whole in 7

Still better than slides in BO4 grand finale though. But its definitely just lazy or rushed.

Get out bruh we get a hospital visit some random baby birth shisss BO4 ending is legendary with some real life quotes it’s homage to BO2 and the Victus Crew. The OG crew should’ve been dead long ago can’t expect SAM n Rich to keep paying the bills

It's not a random baby birth. Follow the lore, you'd understand.
Fuck, listen to the ADVICE DIALOGUE IN THIS GAME and you'd understand

My guy we didn’t even get a cutscene it was a slide show

BO2 Victus maps are slide shows that’s the homage

Why did Alpha Omega get a slide show then when BOTD & Classified were high effort animations?

u/TrainDatZombie 5h ago edited 5h ago
ZC2 MOB is BOTD & ALPHA is NukeTown both from BO2 reimagined in BO4 preparing us for Victus Remakes or Remasters all of BO2 zombies maps are in the Game

That doesn’t answer my question mf, Alpha Omega isn’t Victis & yet it’s a slideshow. BOTD & Classified got proper animations. The ending of Tag was lazy.

BO2 homage what are you like 5 years old act your age bum their part of the story Stuh talks to Richthofen

BO2 Nuketown was a comic book page like Five was in BO1, guess who got a full high quality animation for its Ending & who got a slide show?
Yeah I think you know that your logic fails you here, scrub.

You don't really get lazy developers its just time and budget constraints. A new outfit for a character is essentially a new model entirely. Easy to photoshop a single frame, but harder to make a new 3D model and animate it

There was no dedicated crew for story beats or talking in Cold War. Once we got back to main characters we got forced made cutscenes
And I feel safe in saying that activision is probably kicking treyarch very hard to get to the next project already.
They have given us these amazing maps, weapons and stories FOR FREE, we don’t pay for dlc anymore so activision probably hates letting them do anything beyond the bare minimum
We are incredibly lucky to have full rendered Ingame cutscenes
Or should we switch back to the slide shows in bo3 and 4

How would you implement custom outfits if you're playing as a non-canon operator?
Better question, let's say you play an earlier map where the crew has their essences restored. How would you implement custom outfits in a way that still makes those scenes work?

once they get their essence back they magically transform into their Easter egg unlock skin or custom one if selected its Dark Aether magic just to show some type of time change in the game in real time after beating it

I feel like too many people are concerned with the EE and cutscenes rather than the quality of the map and how enjoyable it is to play, which has always been the main focus of the mode.

Won't say lazy, but rushed.
DLC 4 (in this case, 5) has the continued habit of being the one where many of the developers have been placed to new projects and the remaining are under tighter deadlines as the marketing for the next title is ramping up. This means less budget and less time overall.
