LOS ANGELES – Activision is a major supporter of eSports. From CEO Eric Hirshberg on down, the company has committed to making eSports a central part of the Call of Duty franchise. Over the past three years, the publisher has worked with Xbox to support the $1 Million Call of Duty Championship. That eSports event has grown in scope and popularity since its launch.
In a recent AMA, Sledgehammer Games painstakingly ignored every single one of the dozens of Modern Warfare 3 SBMM comments and questions,
So what's the problem? Are streamers being matched with actual competent players and getting destroyed without their cheats?
No, the problem is a player get matched with all other below average team mates and another team is 1 average player the rest players above average ... its like having a team of pro vs a team of newbies this was all leaked through patents you can play with friends and it get more balanced, but then everyone is just camping and the only way to win is well camping which in turn is well not anything close to fun.
Years ago, Sledgehammer Games was working on a third-person Call of Duty game set during the Vietnam War. But it never came to be.
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.
The EXO tech should really improve the eSports aspect of MP.
Cool, exo suits should give COD a resonance!
