You've seen it all around YouTube and it's not just big streamers doing the same old same old.
The CoD community is going in on it too and I think everyone's serious.
The community is journeying back to a game that unironically looks like the proper sequel to Warzone 2... Warzone Caldera.
Let's put this into perspective because I see a lot of revisionism going on in the Call of Duty community right now.
I'm seeing a lot of people heaping praise on Warzone's Verdansk and while it's a million times better than what we have now, am I the only one who remembers the community's feelings at the time?
Al Mazrah sucks, sure, but I recall the fatigue and mind-numbing boredom the player base was having at the end of Verdansk's life cycle. They couldn't wait for a new map.
That next map turned out to be Caldera — the urine-colored climb-fest — and the community quickly wanted the old map back.
So while I understand everyone wanting Verdansk now that we have the putrid taste of Caldera and Al Mazrah on our tongues, let's not cap and pretend we weren't shitting on Verdansk.
All of this mess created by incompetent, diversity-hire devs just proves the old sayings true,
"You don't know what you miss until it's gone."
And, "The grass isn't always greener on the other side."
What surprised me though — and it shouldn't have — is that the community is actually going back to Warzone Caldera.
The streamers are hopping on because it's easier to make content for their channels and streams.

The community is reinstalling because Warzone legitimately plays better than Warzone 2.
And if that's not enough, players who for some reason or another didn't play Caldera when it came out, are trying to get in on the genuine Warzone experience.
How do I know? Take a look at the comments section on, "How to install Warzone Caldera" tutorials.
Activision is intentionally making it difficult to play the previous Warzone:
1. You can't install Warzone Caldera through Steam — Battlenet only.
2. You can't install Warzone Caldera unless you've previously played it. If you haven't, you'll need to fork over $70 to buy Modern Warfare 2019 first. Essentially making Warzone Caldera a full-priced game.
3. There are rumors that a certain company is hiring hackers to grief the Caldera player base. This is probably bs but I wouldn't put anything past Activision.
Conclusion
You know Call of Duty is down bad when we're all running back to one of the worst maps in battle royale history just to get a decent FPS arcade experience.
But that's what it's come to for a lot of the Warzone player base.
We have tone-deaf arrogant developers celebrating as their ship sinks.
I'll see you guys in Caldera and as always, stay cool, gentlemen.
