It's not hard if you took your engine from Call of Duty 4, which had none of that crap. How come most other popular shooters don't have these problems?Rainboq said:
Oh and if you can't write code for a game properly, then you don't belong on the position of a game programmer anyway. There's three broken Call of Duty games already and nobody ever bothered fixing them. They just keep churning out crap that gets worse with every iteration...
...and then everybody buys it!
It's madness!

You know, I have to admit, it does look kind of interesting. That said, the thing that surprised me most is that they actually showed what look like a left-handed shooter in a quick clip there. You never see lefties in FPS...
Also, why does every game in the future have to use the same style of Blade Runner-esque music? Are we somehow allergic to using anything else that isn't electronic?

From what we see I'll give a crack at a possible story line.
Opens in afganistam/iran/saudi arabia where the player as an undercover agent has to assassinate a terrorist leader (either arab terrorists or some kind of global anti-american alliance) but a US attack forces him to flee, forcing you to follow him/escape your side. Ending with your possibly being captured or being killed.
If you are captured then there might be the black ops style flashbacks to why they wanted the terrorist leader dead. The action then jumps to Los Angeles where a terrorist group storms a US army drone control centre or something that allows them to use US drones which attack the forces sent to retake the centre/city.
It will concentrate on a squad of special forces types as they attempt to get to the centre and stop the drones, fighting both drones and terrorist foot soldiers. Probadly some other missions in other places as well, either as a flashback to before the attack on the drone centre or other special forces trying to disrupte control of the drones.

Treyarch has this really bad habit of not understanding how to copy a modern warfare game. It is in fact, that they take place in a "modern" era. Not when my grandpa was blasting nazis, not when my other grandpa was hoping not to get malaria in 'nam, and especially not when my grandchildren have to fight Neo Soviet robots in Neo Los Angeles. Can this please be the Call of Duty that has terrible sales figures and puts an end to this series?
Yeah, I was going to ask how he would survive being blown up in Vietnam in 1963... than I remembered its a COD game, fuck the finer points of the story...Top Hat said:
Also, horses... Day 1 for me now...
How can anyone still care about this? I mean, I don't hate it (I guess), but I just don't get it. Maybe I'm getting too old for shit like this; you know, I rather read a book or something like that -- yes, it seems like I'm that guy. CoD just seems relentlessly corrosive to the soul, I'm sorry.

Before Call of Duty 1 there was Medal of Honor, Wolfenstien and countless others. Before Modern Warfare, there was Counter Strike, Battlefield 2, Ghost Recon and countless others. Also, this shall be the Call of Duty version of the future, which will be very different to the Tom Clancy/Deus Ex/Syndicate version of the future. One more point, EVERY idea has been done before, not just Call of Duty's ideas.
Yeah, that's what jarred me when I played MW2, the use of infantry didn't seem that realistic if you consider how much machines and robots are already in use currently, let alone in the near future. If another publisher/developer was doing this, I'd be intrigued, but unfortunately I doubt ethical dilemmas are high on Treyarch/Activisions to-do list.Wicky_42 said:
Oh, I know what you mean. After the great horse extinction of 2025, how could they possibly have any in this game?!Freezy_Breezy said:
The only reason that this interest me is that it is a Treyarch game.
Black Ops 1 was the first COD i thought was close to being balanced and took much more skill to kill people.
However i hate future warfare... i can't even stand to pick up energy weapons in Fallout games.

Hopefully they'll have a good explanation. I never got why he didn't just throw Kravchenko out the window...WanderingFool said:
OT: What's with all the hate? I can understand if people don't like some previous cod games, but condemning a game after one video? Really?
Captcha: off the record
Very appropriate.
I'm just not excited. I mean, I guess that could be because its a COD game but...It just doesn't look good. Not even interesting. The horse riding reminds me of the snow mobiles in MW2, and everything else just looks... bleh. It feels like it has automatons just because.
A game engine does not contain the net code, and net code has to be tailored to any specific game. Seriously, net code is probably the hardest software you can do outside of NASA or CERN. Seriously, do you have any programming experience?Retardinator said:
Definitely looks more interesting than Modern Warfare 3. While I'm a fan of the series, I am very glad that they're making some changes other than the names of weapons.
Horses look awesome. You can't go wrong with horses in a game, as Red Dead Redemption showed. If they add some bears in, I might part with my cash Day 1.
However...Woods would be at least 80 in 2025, right? He kept his age well...but not his hair. Looked more like a chain smoking 65 year old.
