A running Michael Myers with a axe? Have they never seen a Halloween movie?

Compared to that bizarre (and fucking amazing just for existing) Call of the Dead DLC, this is downright normal.

"small to medium sized maps" isn't that what every map is now? The "large" maps now are still incredibly small.

Anyone else play the Michael Myers custom game mode in Mw2? Those were some good times. I wonder if this has anything to do with that.

I feel like that's the 4th or 5th launch facility map to be in a Call of Duty game.

@bobafettjm: Ghosts has a few maps that are too big for their own good, these maps might be in response to that.

More Extinction is cool, but I was pretty much done with the game after about a week. I think it's great how they keep expanding on the weird shit in these Call of Duty DLC packs. I wish more games would add stuff like this.

Oh you have fun for the DLC. That's where the fun is hiding in COD.

Also Mike Myers what? And with an axe no less I thought he used a knife.

Also isn't bayview from some horror series?

Michael Myers doesn't run.

I also don't know why they seem to consider the axe so iconic, since I don't remember him ever walking around with one.

In addition to those points, I'm having trouble with him out in the middle of nowhere. That's Jason Vorhees country; Michael Myers is "smalltown Americana," not "remote cabins."

I have no idea if this is why they put him in Ghosts but Michael Myers was the name of a custom game a lot of people used to play in COD4 (as well as other games that had the weapon set to allow it). It played a little like this, it was a lot of fun.

Sure, why not come out with two super IMBA weapons, both of which is pay to win. I like that.

in rainbow six black arrow lot's of clans would play a made up game mode called Michael Myers kind of funny to see this too bad it's not it's own mode.

@jjbsterling: But they really aren't that big. When I can still run from one side of the map to the other as fast as I can it's really not too big. Plus it is nice to have a map once in a while where I don't encounter an enemy within a fraction of a second of spawning.

I am a huge Halloween fan. I've seen all the films multiple times. I can't recall Michael Myers ever using an axe. Was a knife really that hard to model?

Why the fuck does Michael Myers have an axe? Sure, he had a hatchet in that one scene in Halloween 6 but what the hell man.

@bobafettjm: Are you kidding me? A couple of the maps in COD Ghosts are so big you can litterally run around for a minute and not see a single enemy player.

"Michael Myers" is a custom gametype people used to play since CoD4, in which one person is designated as Michael Myers, and has to try to stab everyone with the knife while everyone else attempts to hide and avoid him/her.
Does this Michael Myers inclusion have anything to do with that custom gametype? No idea. I can't think of any better reason for him to be included though.

I can't help being underwhelmed by things and I've fanboyed over plenty of games on here.

My first thought as well. Plus the foggy woods environment looks like it would suit Jason Vorhees more than Michael Myers. Myers' habitat is supposed to be the suburbs and college buildings ect.

I wonder if William Shatner gets any money from the use of his face on the Michael Myers mask.

@kkjs: Really? In my experience playing the game it does not matter what the map size is, I will always either spawn near or have an enemy spawn near me. Also, compared to the good games in the series the maps are not very big.
