Oh, and he additionally solutions if Ghost ever smiles beneath his masks.

Forward of the launch for Warzone 2.0, Jukeyz sat down with Esports.gg to debate his expertise with Name of Responsibility: Fashionable Warfare 2 to this point.
Have you ever been having fun with MW2?
Jukeyz: I’ve been loving it. I’ve been grinding it rather a lot actually, doing pub matches and unlocking the camos. It’s been enjoyable.
How did you just like the marketing campaign in comparison with Vanguard’s?
I used to be locked in. Earlier video games, I wasn’t that . I didn’t get as locked in. However with this one, I saved on enjoying it. The following day I’d return to it as a result of it was a lot enjoyable. This one’s been fascinating. It’s Fashionable Warfare. It’s meant to be just like the sport we had 13 years in the past.
How do you are feeling about individuals thirsting for Ghost this time round?
He’s cool. He’s actually cool. I’m not simping for him personally although.
There’s been a debate that some individuals really feel Ghost doesn’t smile however others really feel he was smirking whereas he delivered the “fairly the other” line. What do you suppose?
I feel he smiles. I feel he has a little bit of a persona to him this time round.
What are your ideas on the present MW2 meta? Does it really feel extra balanced that earlier video games?
It does really feel fairly balanced. I like the best way there are plenty of completely different weapons which are fairly good and plenty of completely different attachments to make the weapons higher. I’ve performed plenty of multiplayer and I can use a special gun and it’s so highly effective then return to the gun I used to be utilizing the day earlier than. They’re all good weapons, to be trustworthy. Some weapons are tougher to make use of than others, but when you should use them, they’re all fairly good.
What are your favourite weapons and attachments?
The M4 is my favourite gun in the intervening time. You possibly can tune your attachments as effectively to make your gun higher. I additionally just like the AK74. However in aggressive, it is likely to be most damaged gun within the sport. Other than that, it’s nonetheless balanced.
However I exploit the M4 for lengthy vary. I exploit the 14 inch barrel, the excessive velocity bullets, the Komodo Heavy muzzle. There are such a lot of attachments, I actually can’t bear in mind. However that’s a superb factor. I like seeing individuals use the weapons in several methods.
How do you just like the maps?
I take pleasure in all of the maps to be trustworthy. I’ve seen Twitter moaning in regards to the map that’s a straight line [ Santa Sena Border Crossing] with site visitors and vehicles. However after I play that map, I actually take pleasure in it. I’m popping off on it. My chat after I’m streaming, they’ll say they again out. They’ll simply depart. However I feel it’s a sick map.
There’s been plenty of complaints in regards to the footsteps and sound design. How was that for you?
Footsteps are a bit tousled, to be honest. The audio cues are a bit loopy. You don’t know if somebody is subsequent to you or a couple of buildings down. In a home with a couple of flooring, you don’t know in the event that they’re on the identical flooring as you. I’ll simply shoot in response as a result of it seems like he’s proper subsequent to me. However he’s above me, one flooring above me. I don’t know if that may ever get sorted out and possibly we now have to adapt to it. However for now, it’s a bit tousled.
How do you are feeling in regards to the mini map adjustments and the choice to not present pink dots for gamers which have shot their weapon?
Once more, I’ve seen lots of people not having fun with that. However I’ve acquired my headset. It’s not a giant deal for me. I do know the place it’s coming from. Relating to gun photographs, you may inform the place they’re and the way far-off they’re. However footsteps, no. The pink dots not displaying — that’s personally not a giant deal for me. However I can see it affecting some individuals in a nasty means. However I’ve tailored to that already.
Are you wanting ahead to Warzone 2.0?
Greater than ever. It looks like Christmas. It feels prefer it’s Christmas Eve. I simply understand how a lot I’ll be enjoying. I really like enjoying a brand new sport, for starters, particularly new Warzone maps. The quantity of buildings on the map, it will get me excited. How good I used to be in shut quarter fights when Warzone got here out. However it hasn’t been a lot shut quarter since. That’s been placing me by a tough time. Now I’m excited to be in these buildings combating, finessing, and doing what I do greatest. And when massive tournaments come round, get again to profitable.
What did you are feeling wanted essentially the most adjustments within the unique Warzone?
Not sufficient buildings actually. That’s what casuals do — they load in to video games and sit in a constructing. Simply sit in a constructing and simply chill, speak to one another, till I fly by a window and smoke all of them. Then they do it once more. Buildings are a very powerful factor ever in Warzone. Particularly for me.
Buildings are necessary for the expansion and viewership. The dearth of buildings has stopped plenty of casuals from enjoying. Individuals who watch me have talked about the dearth of buildings and the way straightforward it’s to die in open area. That’s why they stopped enjoying.
What’s your ideas on the swimming?
I’m excited for that to be trustworthy. I used to play Black Ops 4. You might shoot a machine gun beneath the water. Underwater was sick. I liked that. It was so enjoyable. You might run away from groups and use the water to finesse as effectively. On this one, I feel you may solely use a pistol or throwing knife. That makes it a lot extra sick. It’s going to be thrilling to make use of the water. It is going to be used in a different way in Warzone than multiplayer.
How are you feeling in regards to the new circles?
I’m excited for brand new circles. I feel it should velocity up the sport. It was gradual paced from after I performed. That’s why I like when a brand new sport comes out. It’s gradual paced and it’s your job to show it into a quick sport. The circles will assist with that, to be trustworthy. I’ve by no means seen something like that earlier than, the three completely different zones.
It would have an effect on tournaments since you is likely to be in a zone with no gamers and so they could also be in a zone with rather a lot. It will not be good in that sense. However in pub video games, it will likely be enjoyable and fascinating.
How has your life been between streaming and the infant?
It’s been arduous to be trustworthy. I took my foot off the pedal in relation to being an expert. I took time to assist my girlfriend take care of the infant and be more healthy and sleep extra. I additionally need to join extra with my group as a substitute of being locked in and enjoying Warzone. I used to be largely enjoying tourneys and cash video games earlier than. For the previous yr or so, I took a while off from that. It’s been fairly up and down.
What’s it like having so many individuals look as much as your gameplay?
I don’t give it some thought like that, you recognize? However it’s wonderful, isn’t it? I’ve been blessed with such a chance to go dwell day-after-day and other people are available in… It’s wonderful. It’s a blessing, actually.
