Next CoD Speculation

[A Satanic Panda]

Call of Duty: G-Force

Shoot your useless gun at Godzilla and die
Shoot your useless grenade launcher at Godzilla and die
Shoot your useless tank shell at Godzilla and die
Shoot your useless AGM-65 Maverick at Godzilla and die
Shoot your... yeah you get the point

Crap. They got stale in general years ago, and to top it all off, it's Treyarch. World at War blew hard and Black Ops was unimpressive at best. I expect nothing.

 

[srm79]

It'll be exactly the same as every other CoD since Modern Warfare, but reskinned enough to kid you into believing that it was worth the £45(+£20 odd pounds worth of DLC).

 

[kenu12345]

easy it is going to be about how the russians are the ultimate evil and are behind every bad thing that happens

 

[TheIronRuler]

I think it will slot in with Black Ops in one way or another.

Kinda wish the series would go back to WWII if it cant just die outright, but there you go...

I just can't really see WWII working again. We've already seen almost all possible campaigns and guns. They'd have to be really creative for it to work again, and CoD's not really known for creativity. (At least in regards to changing the formula.)

CoD: Dead Burma.
Oh, Oceanic Campaign was very fun, but some aspecs remained unexplored.

I wanna see something about the kokoda trail, but that might just be 'cause I'm an aussie.

 

[Elvis Starburst]

Same thing as it always bloody is XD Aim, shoot, explode, people yelling in your ear, defeat bad guy

 

[RaNDM G]

Black Ops 2. They ended the first one on a cliffhanger after all.

 

[Jezzascmezza]

If Treyarch are making it, then I can see it being Black Ops 2, and if that is the case, I will certainly be staying far away from it.

The next plot will probably involve Nukes, some spec-ops guys that are actually terrorists undercover for decades, some major invasion into some random country what eventually backfires into getting america screwed over. Missions include nuking the planet from orbit from a secret spacestation facility. Eventually this leads to a shootout during the re-entry of the landing vehicle that is used to escape the exploding spacestation.
Also it will involve trying to capture a "target" by dropping explosives from one of the unmanned drones that recently surfaced in Iran (with a black and white CCTV image ofc).
Eventually the world is saved by killing the antagonist (probably a 1 eyed, scarfaced, scruffy looking guy with a badly impersonated russian or korean accent) by shooting the portable nukelauncher he was trying to use to blow up washington DC. Also did i mention it will involve nukes?

My guess is Black Ops 2. The Cold War has tons of history that has been largely unexplored in games. A game that covered, say, the late 70's-early 80's period would be cool: defectors in Prague, covert ops in Central and South America, that sort of thing.

If Infinity Ward continues the series, I expect they'll make a game out of "Operation Kingfish", which was referenced in MW3. I remember hearing some rumors that Ghost was going to get his own prequel game, so that might be it.

 

[Exile714]

How cool would it be to have a COD game set in Afghanistan circa 1992-1998 where you fight as a Taliban against the PDPA and eventually the United Front in an effort to take over Afghanistan? Anyone? Anyone?

Whatever, I think I'm the only person in the world who knows how cool that would be. You could have a protagonist who is originally excited about the Taliban, but as the atrocities add up he becomes more and more disillusioned, eventually turning against them and getting killed at the very end.

But of course, we won't see THAT because the Taliban are "bad." After all, who cares that the people they fought to take Afghanistan were equally bad? It's this politicization of world history, the definition of "good" and "evil" that's not based on objective criteria, that makes current generation FPS stories so unrealistic and boring.

This.

It says in some of the files you can get in BlOps that the main character (his name escapes me at the moment) and the CIA agent that was questioning him go into hiding. So it'll probably be that. My guess is that it'll also link Nova-6 to the gasses released in MW3, if Nova-6 is mentioned at all.

But that's probably just wishful thinking on my part. It'd be pretty cool.

Also, a serious question for everyone that came in here to bash CoD- are you really that bored and lifeless? Go play Skyrim or something. I know I'm about to.

And THIS is why I wish I could mod that would probably be fantastic.

Well when you think about it we have really only ever seen WWII in Europe with a tad bit of Japan in video games. Sure it wouldnt be as glorious as Europe but there was that whole Africa part of the war.

COD Big Red one was set in Africa, part of it anyway, and another COD game that I can't seem to remember, I do remember being a British Commando and wrecking up a German base in Africa though.

That was CoD 2, a big chunk of it actually.

 

[Jegsimmons]

it will have a main character die, or have no outstanding personality
it will have shock value that will make them look more like retards and sickos than edgy
it will have a shitty badly put together story
it will have guns that are re-skinned and STILL INACCURATE AND PUT IN WRONG CATEGORIES!
it will have shitty sound quality
it will have a high frame rate to cover up its honestly shitty and out dated graphics
it will have a re-skinned multiplayer that has only minor differences added to it
it will have shit coding
it will have boring game play
it will have an annoying fan base even though everyone forgets about it a month after release
it will have record breaking sales and continue to destroy the gaming industry
and it will always, no matter what people say, be a sub par game that zombies will buy

 

[MultiElford]

Maybe they will throw in some RPG elements to make it seem more complex and different. Then its going to scare off 90% of its devoted fan-base that will then move on to a game that is not called Call of Duty but plays exactly the same as Modern Warfare 3 or Black Ops (whatever the difference between the two may be).

Or maybe its just going to be Call of Duty: [some title] which is just Modern Warfare 3 with more perks which make the game so unbalanced that nobody will play it except casual gamers.

I am sorry for making up Doomsday-esque scenarios, but I don't think the fan-base is going to endure another simple 'generation' of Call of Duty. It seems to me that it will simply die off like Guitar Hero.

Last, but not least,... It might just be Halo time again. Remember how popular that was before Call of Duty: Modern Warfare came out?

 

[C2Ultima]

Optimistically, I'd say The Cold War, and not Black Ops style when the plot is about Cold War issues, but still finds contrived reasons to make you go to Vietnam. Something methodical, slow paced, completely stealth focused.

I said "optimistically" didn't I? I should have said "In my wildest dreams".

 

[Tommeh Brownleh]

Call of Skyrim. Guns are now magic little fireball things. Knifes are now daggers, killstreaks usually involve dragons. *awaits internet hatred*
