Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Multiplayer reveal imminent

MLG have recently announced that Sledgehammer Games will be debuting their multiplayer of Call of Duty:Advanced Warfare to the public at Gamescom this year. We take a look at the latest news as well as cover when we can expect to see the first reveal trailer for the highly anticipated first person shooter.

DesVader3558d ago

I would expect to see the gameplay at Gamescom - given that the event is quite close to actual release date, Activision always has a "trial play" section for gamers to experience the upcoming release hands-on. No suprise there.

Mikey322303558d ago

I actually have some high hopes for this game. The branded Advanced Warfare. I can only hope that they apply this through to the game where they are kind of starting over again with modern warfare roots, yet new and improved for next gen.

HoldenZA3558d ago

I think we are still yet to see the scale of the change. I think the multiplayer reveal will show how vastly different it is/isn't from previous COD titles.

TekoIie3558d ago

@HoldenZA

I agree that we really don't have much to go on but there are some mechanics in there which could result in a good COD game.

I remember seeing a side dash like in Hawken and Titanfall which would be an interesting mechanic in COD. So fingers crossed that we see something interesting.

Palitera3558d ago

Lol at you guys. Do you fall for this every year or is it just because a new gen started that you're thinking statues can move now?

Well, guess what. It's a reverse living statue. It only moves if people doesn't pay.
And right now, it is being paid loads of money to stand perfectly still.

Wake up, dudes.

DivineCrusader3558d ago

Advanced Warfare sure seems good so far. Hopefully the multiplayer will be more akin to Black Ops 2 than Ghosts.

HoldenZA3558d ago

The multiplayer reveal for Black Ops 2 was awesome. They showed the pic 10 system as well as the new shoutcasting mode. I hope that AW does the same thing, in terms of innovation.

Matt6663558d ago (Edited 3558d ago )

No it doesn't the story line still looks linear and I noticed the only time you could see your legs or body was during the cut scenes, you thought you would be able to see them during gameplay too (since it suppose to be a "next-gen" game. The MP is probably going to end up a broken mess again, with at least 60% of the weapons being in impervious COD MP's.
I will not buy this game at full price, if anything just seems like an add-on for BO2. I feel sorry for people who don't realize by now, it the same game every single year.

Matt6663558d ago

and if your going to disagree with me at least make a valid point

Randostar3558d ago

BO2 was fun, but it just got boring soooo fast.
They really need to work on map layout for MP, COD always has like 3 completely pre-determined routes in maps. I just want more variety and openness, not bigger shittyer levels like in Ghosts.

DivineCrusader3557d ago

Agreed, and I want more color as well. Almost all of the maps in Ghosts were grey and bland, and it lacked the variety in weapons and scorestreaks featured in Black Ops 2. Overall, it just got old really quick.

I realize it's kind of ironic to ask for a colorful Call of Duty, but I think Black Ops 2 is the most visually appealing game in the franchise. More variety in terms of visuals and gameplay would benefit Advanced Warfare big time.

Not going to lie rather excited for this one lol...

Palitera3558d ago

Then I'll follow you to see the tears on release date.

Edvin19843558d ago

By all means doubt ill be upset like that its just a video game.

Sillicur3558d ago

Exciting times for COD fans!

Agent_hitman3558d ago

Acti named this as Advanced warfare cause the Modern Warfare series was a success. they're hoping that COD fans will be back and support this game because it has warfare in its name... Hopefully Sledgehammer will reach its expectation.. I will keep an eye on this

HoldenZA3558d ago

I think it mostly has to do with the involvement of Sledgehammer Games in the Advanced Warfare series rather than based off of its success alone.

Sledgehammer played a big role in MW3 and now with their own title they are showing how they are familiar but also unique in their name. Quite a smart one in my opinion.

That is a shame. AW is my favourite CoD. I hope they do a sequel one day.

LordoftheCritics376d ago

Thoroughly enjoyed AW.

Good campaign and everything.

LOGICWINS376d ago

Same. Fantastic campaign, but I wasn't crazy about the jetpacks in multiplayer.

RaidenBlack376d ago

I still prefer CoD based on historical settings or in near future settings(like CoD: Ghost) ... even though I liked infinite Warfare's campaign ... it was top notch

CobraKai376d ago

I felt it was a good time to revisit WW2

porkChop376d ago

I actually really enjoyed WWII. I never understood the hate it got.

JEECE376d ago

A lot of people who never played a shooter prior to like 2012 get really mad about anything that isn't a modern combat game.

Here’s hoping that a sequel just doesn’t happen.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare remains the series' lone bright spot this gen

GR: "If one series truly defined the seventh generation of consoles it was Call of Duty. Sadly, the series has struggled to reach the same heights on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and only Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare feels like the previous era of innovation and top-notch storytelling."

I quite enjoyed it but I think black ops 3 was the high point.

Modern warfare could be if a few tweaks are made and the new maps are good.

Baza1625d ago (Edited 1625d ago )

Story wise.. black opps 3 was all over the place. Modern Warfare story is so much more cohesive and actually makes sense.

Immorals1625d ago

Black ops 3 was terrible. The story was absolutely atrocious.

Knushwood Butt1625d ago

I quit that campaign after about an hour. All I remember is some crappy robot drone combat R2D2 thing that you had to use. I didn't make it past that.

Epicor1625d ago

For me the Black Ops installations have always been the high peaks in terms of PVP mode. Black ops 3 campaign was pretty bad though. Advanced Warfare's campaign was pretty good, one of the best ones - but PVP was bad!

gamer91625d ago

LOL Advanced Warfare, too funny

Kabaneri1625d ago

The campaign was OK, but the guns sounded like cap guns and the multiplayer maps were not memorable at all.
