Jake Goldberg of CanadianGamer writes : The newest Call of Duty has been out for no more than a week now. Developed this time by Sledgehammer games has set out to change the traditional formula of how Call of Duty is played. This review is strictly multiplayer, seeing as many fans of the series play Call of Duty for this reason only. Let’s get into the review.
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is a pretty game, but it doesn’t do anything spectacular that hasn’t been seen in past COD’s. The models are all done well and the textures are above average, but Call of Duty has never been about the graphics, and so this game is pretty true to the series in most respects.
The game is surprisingly decently optimized for Nvidia graphics cards, sadly the same can’t be said for AMD cards. The video settings panel has a good amount of options that can be toggled to affect performance, but you won’t want to be playing this game at anything other than 60FPS. A great yet super simple feature included in this years Call of Duty on PC is an FOV slider, the field of view can drastically be adjusted which allows for more customizable gameplay.
Former director at Activision, Bret Robbins, revealed that Advanced Warfare 2 had a working prototype, but it was eventually shelved for COD WWII.
That is a shame. AW is my favourite CoD. I hope they do a sequel one day.
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
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.
Game Rant Writes "With rumors swirling about a sequel to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Sledgehammer Games can bring back a few weapons for a modern encore."
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.
Story wise.. black opps 3 was all over the place. Modern Warfare story is so much more cohesive and actually makes sense.
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.
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!
The campaign was OK, but the guns sounded like cap guns and the multiplayer maps were not memorable at all.
