This has been a project long in development the past couple of months and serves as a sendoff to the Blackout mode in Black Ops 4. I've had such a great time playing Blackout with friends and have made countless memories over the year and hope I captured that feeling in this fun ridiculous video.

On behalf of the Blackout team... thank you for playing and thank you for the nice sign-off.

These bursts of creativity and the reasons why people do them legitimately refill the motivation meter. On a personal level, I can't tell you how nice it is being linked to Reddit from a co-worker and end up on post full of optimism, positivity, and gratitude.

Fun.

Clever editing. Solid use of camera placement.

I legit laughed out loud when the audio ducked and got filtered during the under-water scene. Those are the best gags. When you don't expect them, but after they happen it seems so obvious that the creator would do that.

Not sure if you are trying to tell a story? I was looking for one based on the title and the relationship between the guys slap fighting and the guys watching that from afar. After that, I just gave in to the fun.

10/10. I would dedicate years of my life making something worthy of more videos.

Congrats! AND THANK YOU. MAKES DOING WHAT WE DO WORTH DOING.

BC designed randomness. Really rare. You should be celebrating how lucky you are.

Love you David. Thanks for still conversing with this community, toxic as it can be at times.

I don't get many opportunities to do it. Example: I haven't been to a single COD WORLD LEAGUE event this season. That's kinda crazy given my investments in that world! I would go to those events and be immersed in that world (for better and worse.)

I have a new mission now. You could argue it's the greatest design challenge of my career. It's always strange to say out loud --which is why I have to do so until it becomes the new normal.

My mission is to build the design team so as to get it to a place where if I never showed up to work ever again, no one would notice and we roll on with the values that have defined us.

I appreciate those nice words. A lot. Makes it worthwhile for me to fight on.

/u/davidvonderhaar seems to be taking to self deprecating humor to appease the masses. Not a bad idea Vondy.

I've been busting out self-deprecating humor for games. It's not new. Did you see the photo of me struggling to hold a real-life .50 caliber sniper rifle that weighs almost as much as I do? I was turning purple. Or the video of the back of my bald head in a wingsuit being pushed through the halls of Treyarch on an AV cart?

If I start taking myself too seriously --I no longer deserve this post. Have a go at me. I can take it. I am grateful for the opportunity to know so many of you directly.
