Call of Duty: Ghosts – the billion-dollar new beginning

Infinity Ward knows a thing or two about change – even if it has worked on the same multimillion-dollar franchise since its origins as a splinter group from the Medal of Honor series 11 years ago.

as far as the story in these kinda games (cod, but also battlefeild, killzone, medal of honor, etc...) i think people need to realize that war games usually all have the same characters in them, one way or the other... old vet, new guy, smart guy, wimpy guy, redneck guy, its the same stuff in war movies too. then one guy will die, and it will make all the others reflect on stuff. you'll earn the respect of the guy who didn't like you in the first mission. the old vet will die or retire, and you'll take up his mantle. its the starship troopers "cmon, do ya wanna live forever?!?" moment... thats why the set peices in the single player work so well, they are the only thing REALLY unique in the story LOL...

theres only so many takes on this kinda stuff... not saying i don't like battlefeild or killzone or cod... love all three... its just the story ALWAYS seems a little rehashed no matter which it is... #1 reason i always like jumping pretty much straight to multiplayer LOL

shivvy243860d ago

Yeah, I actually don't know how shadow fall might turn out, I think the helghast are gonna win the war over vektans

ShowGun9013860d ago

maybe! they've done a pretty good job of actually trying to show both sides instead of them just being "evil"

venom063860d ago

GOD... IT IS NOT A NEW BEGINNING... i dont understand why people fall for this marketing gimmick. This is story may be slightly changed but this is still MW4. IW devs even said that it was going to be called MW4, but they changed the name.

ShowGun9013860d ago

i agree with the article from a while back that likened COD more to madden or fifa than other FPSs... ALOT more people would be mad if they radically changed it than if they kept it the same...

maddens not my cup of tea, but im not gonna rage on it... it wouldn't be madden if you changed too much. cod is the same way, and MILLIONS of people like that about it...

street fighter 4 has the same DNA as 1,2 and third strike, but thats what MAKES it street fighter... sometimes knowing what to expect is a good thing and i think a few more people should try and see it that way occasionally.

i forgot, its the new cool thing to just bash cod. damn hipsters...

famoussasjohn3860d ago

While it can be argued about it being the same game as always, there are no characters from the previous MW games, new characters as well as new setting and theme.

They never said it was going to be MW4, http://www.videogamer.com/x...

also they have no plans of doing MW4, as Ghosts will more than likely have a sequal.

XDefiant dev promises fix to frustrating hit reg issues, though players remain skeptical

Mark Rubin, XDefiant’s executive producer, responded to an X/Twitter post that fixes to hit reg “are something [they] are working on.” Unfortunately, it’s unclear when it will arrive, as neither Rubin nor the development team have yet to provide an actual time frame.

Ha man what is this the 8th time they are working on this issue?

SO the game is using division one maps/assets with some divison 2 thrown in with that we can say they never really made the maps so what have they been doing for there 6 to perhaps 8 years of dev time? must be alot of hookers/blow/parties.

It's astounding how much money they blow and this is the results. Gaming development is out of control.

just_looken1d ago

Right even when ubisoft cancelled division heartland as a beta player that game was a far better state then they push with this trash of a game that is still in a beta state after 3 years of delay's.

we are so starved of any decent fps/3rd person shooters out there it seems we will take anything even though some ps2 fps games were more fun then this game in my old opinion.

FPS_D3TH1d 9h ago

Skeptical because it was an issue with ALL the betas and still hasn’t been fixed

just_looken1d ago

Its like they are using division one servers but they caught fire then were put together with barry/carols help from the janitors wing or some shit. Three years they still can not make it so the gun goes boom the guy gets hit then damage is applied.

Been real hungry for a more simple multiplayer fps for a long time. I really dislike all the hero shooters we keep getting. I'll definitely give this a shot and if it ends up crap then it ends up crap.

OMGitzThatGuy258d ago

How broken is the game when Sony and MS failed certification? And they still think it may fail and planning on a day 1 patch, somebody was slacking.

Nitrowolf2258d ago (Edited 258d ago )

He literally came out to clarify that this is very standard of a process for a game to be denied the first cert. They're just giving a update to the people waiting and explaining what's going on

Dazelya258d ago

They were too late to do this. Also, the beta versions of the game were absolutely a disaster, if they are like this at launch, they will destroy themselves without the need for CoD anyway. Besides, it is an extremely negative thing that the game was rejected by Sony or MS or both during quality control, and that is why they waited so long to announce it. Moreover, there is still a chance of being rejected again.

What I wonder is, at what point did people love Mark so much? Many years ago, when Mark was working in CoD teams, people were swearing at him. Now, it really surprises me that Mark has his defenders. People either forget things very easily, or younger generations are not very aware of Mark's past...

boing1258d ago

Well, yeah but not really. The problem is you set certification for a specific date, and then you have to deliver something mostly working to get a cert. However, often times first cert is set too soon, because you start doing it before the game is actually ready, so the process is mostly used to see how much effort it would still require to deliver something passable on second cert, because you get a nice report after the first one. It's absolutely possible to deliver on first cert. You do not deliver if you're way behind with development.

PapaBop257d ago

Very standard? I can't think of a time where I've read a story of a major publisher failing the certification process and having to delay the game as a result.

PunksOnN4G258d ago

TBH the last beta the shooting and aiming was bad on console it was really bad

Killa78258d ago

The game has pretty bad issues in the open beta. It's a shame because a f2p proper fps is needed at the moment.

Muigi258d ago

This is why people still buy Cod

Most expect it to be shut down a year after release. Defy that.

🙄🤣🤣. Shots fired.
