yub yub i feel bad for all those people been brainwashed to buy a yearly copy of the same stuff, lucky me since mw2 fine mess i haven't owned a cod game, maybe when next generation consoles come out, with new tech and stuff i hope they finally give the cod series a major overhaul, visually, gameplay, physics, A.I, to make it look new and fresh, but if things continue like this activision will not be getting a cent for me and a lot of other folks that may agree with me
Games that come out yearly have little to no added value; majority is reused assets and code.
Why pay full price for reused stuff?
SKIP ANNUALS, just like COD.
Why do you think the best games never come out yearly? Good games require time, while annuals require paying off reviewers.
MGS, Uncharted, etc etc never would be so good if they came out yearly.
SKIP TRASH. Dont listen to reviews listen to reality. They reuse assets and code, nearly everything for annual releases; why keep this terrible cycle going?
Because it's a whole new story with new additions/modes ontop of a winning and addictive gameplay formula.
Anything popular enough that is constantly talked about will produce hate, for the sake of wanting to stick out and feed our ego's.
What COD does and has been doing is the pinnicle of a FPS, it's just constantly fine tuning a winning formula yearly...doing anything more drastic (gameplaywise) would break the game, until someone can come a long and do it better...That won't change. The game is simply as good as it can get for the moment, and AGAIN..until something better comes a long and out does that addictive and effective formula. COD is at it's PRIME with such a well balance and constant updated package, the variety and improvements matched with a strong engaging story..keeps getting better, which is the point.
Your opinion is based off the popularity it gets and the failed overused logic of recycled gamplay. If it ain't broke DON'T fix it...the audience clearly are NOT bored or done with it.
MAIN POINT IS, COD IS STILL DAMN FUN! Theres your ANSWER.
Yeah, you copied and pasted this onto an article about halo too, even though that isn't a yearly title. Stop printing copies of yourself and make sense. I heard Black Ops 2 is a fun game, so I might actually get it.
Who will give a crap about this trash when GTA V, The Last of Us, Bioshock: Infinite and Tomb Raider are coming out next year? Fuck this series, i can't wait for the day this fad will finally die.
Why? The fun thing about CoD was that you got a Modern setting and an older setting in two different games. Now it is modern and the not so distant future(for civilians anyway. This stuff is probably old news for the military)
I would like to see Infinity Wards take on a past war this time.
Yeah that would be cool, I still personally like CoD 2 the best out of all of IW CoD games. They could even remake CoD 2 with a bit better graphics and sprinting and that would be awesome even.
Well, at least they aren't going to goo all F.3.A.R. on us and call it Modern Fourfare... I hope. If they do, then I'll cry in a corner for humanity...
The MW series should end with 3. The story is completely finished, they're just forcefully dragging this out now. They can still do a modern setting without being part of the MW series.
I am curious .. what does that mean? ( I hope its not just about graphics) .. unless the game decided to drop to 30 fps I can see something.. but I don't think people would want that.
what do people want to see in the new cod engine? ( if there will ever be one )
those stuff just mean the game is rushed and can be done with more time I think ..
I actually want to see some physics - A crazy load of realistic killing animation would change the game for me ( like max Payne 3, kz2, bf3 .. were every kill is unique ) - maps more open - better AI!! - and greater graphics of course .. those are the basic stuff I want to see improved (and also maintain 60 fps)
I'd call this tinfoil hat theory talk, but EA and Activision don't spend $100 million a year in marketing a single game just to let stealth marketing go to waste.
Just confirms my suspicions that there is no imagination left at Infinity Ward or Activision.
Modern Warfare has had it's fair share of knocks, but if this goes even minutely wrong it'll become a laughing stock.
I assume they want to continue with Price, fair enough, but start a new story arc with a new title. Everybody knows it'll sell on the Call of Duty name alone. You could call it Call of Duty: Sparkly Vampires and it'll still sell like crack.
Even if Treyarch were to make it and release it in 2014, I wouldn't want it. The whole modern military setting is dated as hell. Say what you will about WWII as a setting, but at least admit that it had a whole hell of a lot more flexibility than the modern one does.
With that said, modern military shooters as a whole need to die. Treyarch apparently understood that to a degree, and they really dialed back a good bit on all the hand-holding, "wait for the other guy" shit MW2, BO, and MW3 had. Medal of Honor: Warfighter was... terrible, really. It held your hand more than MW3 did, which is saying something considering I stopped playing MW3's campaign because of how much it forced me to wait.
it's funny you say that because when you think about it , it took 3-4 generations of gaming for WW2 to be played out , yet it's taken 1 just 1 generation for the modern military shooter to be completely whored out
Call of Duty: Slightly more Modern Warfare but not so modern that we're encroaching on Treyarch's slightly futuristic Black Ops 2 which also has sequences set in the past which we will avoid as this is Modern Warfare.
Or, CoD:SmMWbnsmtweoTsfBO2wahssitp wwwaatiMW for short.
I'm wondering how long until they pull an EA and nix the old games servers....or like most of the older games already, hackers will infest and ruin what is left on a more grand scale.
There is absolutely no value to purchasing these games anymore. And the entire COD series peaked a long time ago. We've seen their potential and know what to expect. There is little hope for change.
I made up my mind, from now on only buying the Treyarch version. MW3 was terrible, and I'm sure Sledgehammer will be behind this new one too, so i'll pass.
IW was my choice before because MW and MW2 were better than Treyarch's versions, however with Black Ops 2....Treyarch are the leaders now.
they really should stop referring to CoD info as being "leaked" since it's pretty much a given at this point that there's going to be a new CoD *every year*.
Let's call it what it is, indirect marketing by Activision engineered to look like a leak. Completely transparent in my opinion. For starters, any voice actor would be under contract to keep their mouth shut to the public or media unless otherwise instructed, and I don't think any of them would want to be on the receiving end of an Activision lawsuit for a little voice work.

Accept that.
I would like to see Infinity Wards take on a past war this time.
I did not see that coming.
lol I kid!
Seriously tho enough with this yearly nonsense
Until they upgrade to a new engine, i refuse to upgrade from COD4 lol

bug fixes
glitches
connection errors
you name it...the graphics are just a bonus really

New engine should mean entirely new feel to the game, not just looks.
Basically, they'll never do any of this so it's just wishful thinking.
i think no real hardcore gamer plays COD.

You did 3, you finished the series, now bury it.
(COD:MW4)

But whatever, I'm rambling on.
END OF LINE.
It took two generations to be whored out. Even at it's whoriest, I'd still take that over the MMS we have now.
Or, CoD:SmMWbnsmtweoTsfBO2wahssitp wwwaatiMW for short.
Should do well.
Feels like the shortened version is longer than the first >_<

Kotick would never, ever, on his mother's grave, milk the series that badly.
Activision has far too much integrity to release a Black Ops 3 three days ago, two years from now. I refuse to believe it...I refuse!
IW was my choice before because MW and MW2 were better than Treyarch's versions, however with Black Ops 2....Treyarch are the leaders now.
I don't know, it's a toss up between grit and splosions.

First Murray's supposed statement, and now this leak... Can't be a coincidence, huh?
