MW4 is coming

[krazykombatant]

EA is gonna be PISSED! How does activision even dare take the yellow and blue lights!!

[krazykombatant]

Did i really just say yellow i meant orange. *facepalm*

[SolidStoner]

lol, but thats true, what are they thinking.. those light orange lines are just as like in BF3 and 4 pictures... crazy... and this MW4 picture looks like taken from BF3 earthquake maps...

EDIT: it must be fan made.. or something.. anyway.. I bet it will look just like this :D

[ApolloTheBoss]

Really?

[DigitalSmoke]

Wow the stolen art design is a chump move for sure, lame.

[Yardie]

pretty sure it was created by a fan.

[CarlosX360]

It's the only working MW4 image that I could find. When there's more, I'll use those. For now, this will have to do.

[Trago1337]

I wonder how much longer these games will sell before the franchise fatigue kicks in.

[CarlosX360]

Until something better comes along. Respawn's game hasn't been revealed yet, and Destiny hasn't picked up steam yet...

It'll be a while.

[princejb134]

activision is copying and pasting mw3 as we speak
adding 2 or 3 more cars to a level and than claiming is a new game

[FarCryLover182]

and changing the scorestreaks a bit... lol.

[nitrogav]

What a surprise , yawn .

[venom06]

HAHA!! this is too funny!! so what EXACTLY is MW4 going to offer??? they can't do a future setting again (BO2 did already did that) and they cant copy and paste MW2 again (MW3 already did that)... and they wont use a new engine either... so why the hell am i buying MW4 again??

[N0S3LFESTEEM]

Guns will shoot confetti, the knife animation will be turned into a hug(bear hug from behind), Killstreaks will be replaced by party favors ex: 3 confetti facials get's you a party hat, 5 gets you a clown, and 8 lets swing at a pinata. The setting will be something similar to a teletubbie episode...

[Trago1337]

For those who keep buying these games every year, I have a question: What is it about these games that get you to purchase them every year?

In my experiences with the recent titles, in terms of gameplay mechanics, content, etc, there hasn't been anything truly game changing or spectacular about these iterations that set them apart from one another, other than Zombies in WaW.

I'm seriously curios about this.

[spaceg0st]

honestly? it's the ONE game that brings everyone on my friends list together. Throughout the year, everyone kind of plays this and that, maybe a couple duplicates, but COD has always brought 6-7 of my closest friends together. And its more about hanging out with them than anything. (and i live out of state) I tried converting them to BF3 but it didn't really take. As we all know, COD appeals to the casual arcade crowd, which is the main reason so many ppl pick it up. I wish it wasn't the case

[Trago1337]

Yeah, I've gotten that same answer from "Rational" players who like the series.

And I totally get it as a game that you play with your friends. Whenever some old friends of mine get together after a while from hanging out, the first thing we do is Pop in Smash Bros. and play 'till 3 A.M. lol.

Personally however, When it comes to shooters, the COD series hasn't Broken any boundaries for me. I still think CoD 4 is the best one, but the newer ones really don't leave me with anything to be desired at all. It's just run down a Hallway and shoot, which is fine for some people, but i prefer a little more depth to my shooters, i.e. Bioshock, Unreal 2004, and Left 4 Dead.

so thanks for that.

[CarlosX360]

I agree with spaceg0st. The appeal of the games after COD4 was that it could bring gamers together at a given time.

[KaBaW]

I'd have to agree, that's really the only reason I get the game.
Play with friends at each others houses, or online with everyone.

But, I'd agree with you, as well, that CoD 4 was the best one, yet.

[ape007]

@spaceg0st

you BF fanboys are trying to act like BF is hardcore and CoD is a casual game but how wrong is that, because CoD is accessible therefor it's a causal game, that's a F***** up logic my friend and according to you gentleman, Mario is a casual game, zelda is a casual game, Metal Gear, Grand theft auto, uncharted, Burnout etc...

there is a huge difference between a casual game and a Core\traditional accessible game like i listed above

the way u think is Casual

[Eyeco]

CODs appeal is its fast arcade gameplay combined with its miltoplayer which come on now does have some depth

I used to just hate on the franchise but now I just dont care, ive never bought any of the games personally and dont plan to in the future that said many people enjoy them regardless if the franchise milked, in the end its their money not ours let them spend it on what they want instead of whining about someonelses purchase on the internet.

No matter how many times people call it garbage they still sell by the 10's of millions, people enjoy them and Activision laughs all the way to the bank to collect their billions.

Bottomline who cares, looking at the comments most people arent gonna buy the game, just play something else there are better shooters on the market, if you want a hardcore, challenging FPS pick up ARMA or Operation Flashpoint

[trenso1]

I have to agree ever since me and my friends stopped playing COD we havnt played a game together since

[jimbobwahey]

One big selling point of COD for me is that for my money, I get an excellent singleplayer campaign and a whole truckload of competitive and cooperative multiplayer content, especially in comparison to other games that just simply don't offer as much for the money.

Pretty much every other sequel to any other franchise offers the bare minimum of new content, meanwhile COD will pack a whopping 15 multiplayer maps on the disc, loads of co-op content and all sorts of other stuff to keep players coming back.

I also appreciate how each title finds clever ways to mix up multiplayer, be it the clever strike packages in MW3 or the great kill confirmed mode, or the new Zombies modes and 'Pick 10' system in BO2. Every other multiplayer shooter just regurgitates the same thing, but the COD franchise is always keeping things fresh with each new game.

I also really like the smooth 60fps gameplay too, which is really nice after playing something as sluggish as Battlefield for example.

Finally on top of that, they just can't be beaten for value for money when it comes to DLC. The content collections for MW3 for example offered crazy amounts of competitive/cooperative content for the money.

I'm not bothered by the fact that they keep using the same engine for their games either because every other development studio reuses their engines for sequels as well.

[Thefreeman012]

you keep saying value but Im not seeing the value if it can be diminished by the fact I can play the games before. I wouldnt say what they do to "revamp" multiplayer is clever, more or less just a rehash with an extra weapon thrown in

[Themba76]

what do you mean by value on dlc new small maps and thats it? at least battlefield I get new maps weapons and new vehicles and new gameplay modes COD just small maps with the same design just a different color.

[shin-90]

The COD franchise feels the best to play out of all FPS's- its so responsive and slick. I cant explain it properly but after trying other games they don't seem to generate that same level of satisfaction.

[XIIIWARRIOR41]

It's business and if you all owned Activision. I'm sure you be happy that your racking up the cash!

[Reverent]

Which is why I don't blame Activision for this at all. I blame the sheep that follow them.

[josephayal]

MW4 is Coming? wow I'm very impressed

[rezzah]

Lol itd be more impressive if it wasnt.

[ape007]

ACTIVISION please bring back original devs that went to "respawn studios" with EA and give them a new next gen based engine and hire hans zimmer for soundtrack like MW2, that ladies and gentlemen would be the best CoD game EVER and a dream come true for me, easily

i know that seem impossible, o know we'll get another MW3 like rehash on current gen but never say never

[spaceg0st]

mw2 sucked. Please ignore his request

[Gamer-Z]

MW2 did not suck, yeah it had its glitches but it was by no means a bad game.

[coolbeans]

The only mention of MW2 in ape's first post say "hire hans zimmer for soundtrack like MW2" (which was an excellent soundtrack btw), so what are you talking about?

[CanadianTurtle]

After playing MW3's online for 4 months, uh no thanks.

[PinkFunk]

You played MW3 online for 4 months, while not liking it?

[SAE]

It's like drugs. You can't stop even if you want to until you really really get bored of gaming. I blame my brothers and friends for making me playing it. So i'm still gonna buy Mw4 even though i hate it and know how to play it before it's announced >.< ..

[PRHB HYBRiiD]

Im telling you COD it's like some illuminati shit/

[digger18]

Can't wait. Day one for me

[LordHiggens]

Color me shocked...and the piece of garbage will sell well too. Just like every other one. 1 was great, 2 was good everything after that sucked.

[ape007]

you're overreacting, yes they are almost the same but the sweet smooth almost perfect controls that nobody quite matched is garbage?? that means you're not a real gamer, u just want new engines and flashy gfx, reality disagres with u, minecraft and CoD are the most played games and u know why?....... FUN, END

[SAE]

I don't have fun but i'm still playing it so i bet others have the same reasons i have lol

[Reverent]

"You're not a real gamer because you don't like my favorite game!" Boo hoo. Seriously, grow up. There's nothing wrong with complaining about a game that seriously needs improvement. Because of people like you, Activision gets away with selling this game with nothing but re-skins. If MORE people would refuse to buy it and complain, Activision will think, "Hmm, maybe we need to switch things up a little.".

But no, you CoD fans are perfectly content playing the exact same game year after year, so guess what? Activision is going to squeeze every last cent out of you before you finally, if ever, realize you're being ripped off.

I don't hate/dislike the CoD franchise at all, but it is getting old and if more people don't get with the picture, the game will never evolve.

[angelsx]

I'm not cod boy but this time i think MW4 will surprise us.

[Y_5150]

What if it doesn't when you or somebody else buys it? just wait till next year right? This is how the vicious cycle continues...

[objdadon]

U wanna no why we buy it? Cause it's fun! Not over serious just fun!

[Saleem101]

I guess you like rambo feelin it gives you aim assist does wonders lol....

[jaymart2k]

And the fact that bullets are like laser beams, they go straight no matter what.

[ShadowKingx]

Really, and guess what next year they wont be a MW4 but there will be a Black Ops 3 and then then following year there will be a MW 5 and so on and so forth, and guess what it will never change it will be the same DAMN game.

[MrAnderson]

No shit...

and as always, I won't be buying it

[Y_5150]

Yes you said it and I'm with you. Never bought a Call of Dooty game ever! Not planning on either.

[bamillington]

not for me. since i got into battlefield i can't see any reason to cod

[Saleem101]

COD needs to die or remove aim assist from the game...

[rezzah]

Almost everyone uses AA online. Unless, based on my experince, the majority of my killcams were those who used AA.

[Gamer-40]

I hope, next-gen title and using new engine. UE4? Ghost returns?

[Incipio]

Remember when it was Call of Duty 4: MW?

Now it's Call of Duty: MW4.

Just a little switching around of the colon and the number.

[HmongAmerican]

I hope PS4 is launch by then because this is the game I want to see in it next gen graphic. Maybe Activision won't be so greedy this time and update their outdated game engine.

[artdafoo]

Keep dreaming son

[kenshiro100]

I am shocked I say, shocked. /s

[CEOSteveBallmer]

Very Nice how much?? - BORAT

[Britainz-Fin3st]

What a suprise...

[ISNeko]

Modern Warfare 3 was basically 2. Is 4 going to be... CoD4?

[CapsLocke]

So what? Why is this should be here?

[artdafoo]

That has got to be a typo, dont they mean MW3.5 ?

[jaymart2k]

You mean mw2.6

[PRHB HYBRiiD]

More like 2.2

[ziggurcat]

next year black ops 3 is coming , then MW5 is coming the following year.... and so on....

[Sheikah]

You can't know that for sure! (laaawl)

[whamlollypop7]

Good to see the teat is still moist.

[2v1]

you all need to get this game ,this will be the Best Call of Duty ever../s

[B-radical]

bf4 vs Mw4

[jasona1980]

I was sat on a plane with Billy Murray (Captain Price Voice) on the way home from Turkey... He told me it was coming...

...then denied it everywhere went I took the news online!

[overrated44]

This post could have been titles "Tomorrow the Sun Will Rise", we all knew it was going to happen.

[ATi_Elite]

(Digital Robotic Voice) "This is not big news even I knew MW4 was coming and I've been on Mars since 2004"

----Mars Rover Spirit

[Conquerbeard]

More breaking news: the sun will rise tomorrow.

[Gamesgbkiller]

If you guys know this coming , why the hill you made this top 450?

[HeroPsychoDreamer]

Noooooooooooooo

[Mr-Dude]

I enjoy the singleplayer... (yeah really) but that's it... after that i trade the game in or sell it online... I rarely play multiplayer...

[Red_Devilz]

1) Does it have always online DRM?

2) What about stupid AI who would commit suicide by stepping on their own grenades; like they had in COD:Black Ops Declassified (vita)?

3) Does it require you to buy ammunition paying real $$?

4) Does it have 4hrs (+/- 5 minutes) long single player campaign for $60?

Given the current trend, I wont be surprised if answer to all these questions is a (shameless) YES.

[Bonerboy]

Oh....boy...cant...wait... 'yaaawn'. I can see the headlines now, "Is THIS going to be the best MW yet?" Pfft. Can't we move on from the now bi-annual spoon-feeding of the epitome of videogame drivel please? PLEASE?! Fuck right off with the CoDs already. Well, then again, it does keep a huge majority of foul mouthed weak skilled losers away from ruining other online games. I am amazed that people still buy/play this endless rehash of a game. This just in! The grand unveiling of "MW Bore-ops 18" in 2015! The sheep go wild.

[d4sholil1]

Activision makes millions from the Call of Duty series...Infinity Ward, and Treyarch, or both should about face, and follow Bungie and start new franchises. Pass off the Call of Duty series to other developers or keep them going with MW4 and the next Black Ops thats always connected like Destiny is reported to be, and continually add content every 6 months for $10 or $20 dollars. Just a thought.

[SpecialK]

Ive not bought Black Ops 2 yet, but Im still getting enjoyment out of MW3 so I'll probably end up getting this one.

Bash it all you want, but like some have said, its something everyone buys, and its a blast to play with friends.

And each time round they always manage to add some new game mode that just keeps things fresh. The community game modes are great, I still love playing infection. Reminds me of the Halo mode. Domination is a blast and survival with a friend split screen just doesnt get boring.

What do people want? Considering the frame rate and the fact you can have 4 players on one screen, the graphics are pretty nice. Id like to see BF3 hold all its beauty at 60fps in split screen.

The core gameplay should never be changed, ranking up is polished, the gameplay is the smoothest Ive seen on consoles, and theres a dev team that actually listens to its fanbase (whilst filtering the crap from haters) and adds new community modes which are awesome.

Im sure I'll get disagrees but whatever, the core game does not need changing.

[Sheikah]

Noooo waay?

[jay2]

And all the sheep will pay another £10 for it making them £60 not £40.

[roshi1987]

So god damn poorly written.

[Vettur]

wohoo...
//irony

[MilkMan]

Um, how is this news?

[danfry]

Seriously, aren't people bored with this sh!t already? I've played COD for about 10 years now, back on PC. I think I've just about had enough of it now. I won't be buying it.

[LAWSON72]

Yay... mw4 vs bf4 which one am i getting... neither

[KillrateOmega]

A new CoD?

(Gasp)

My whole perspective of reality has been shattered! /s

[ACEMANWISE]

With a new building and character skin.

[Gamerita]

i'm not buying anymore COD games,i only played BO2 online for a total of 6 hours on my PC. this is how i know i will not be buying these games (i own every single one of them). :) the lag compensation or what ever they call it sealed the deal for me.

also to be honest since the infinity ward team split the COD games are not the same.

[chukamachine]

Black ops 2 is the best cod imo, and the new pack revolution has the best mp maps as well.

[Donnywho]

The glory days are over. Hard freezes suck too, I'm not into that.

[liquidgravity]

Great, another COD game...just what we need, more of the same old shit! :P

[Shacojin]

You don't say?

[spinbot_lv1]

Let me guess... next CoD = SP campaign: 15 fast levels on the rail, infinite respawn of enemies, 2 or 3 checkpoints per level..run-shoot-run-shoot-run -shoot-run.... 5 hours of gameplay. MP: the festival of campers and super skilled glitches hunters.

[mydyingparadiselost]

Who cares, chances are half the people playing will microtransaction themselves through the game.

[Max-Zorin]

Get ready for dead man's hand 2.0. Instead of C4, you nuke the map.

[CODallday]

Call of duty is a beast game. We are going to keep buying it no matter what you haters say,and it hurts you! #CODNATION
