Is Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Merely a Titanfall Knockoff?

Fatal Hero: There comes a moment where you fall in love with a video game over a single event.

I can remember my Call of Duty: Modern Warfare moment vividly. I was sitting behind a digital gas station, holding firm among the stray bullets and hellfire missiles, watching a sniper sit atop “Grandma’s House” methodically picking off my teammates running to a back alley. In that moment I pulled up my scope, held my breath along with my video game counterpart, and dropped him in a single shot. Moments like these incited endless hours of enjoyment for gamers as they poured over weapon unlocks, kill streak rewards, and beautifully diverse maps.

Cod knocks off a game thats a knock off of cod.
Its getting ridiculous imo.
I mean why does everything have to be a knock off? Tf is tf...cod is cod. Not to mention this cod was in development for a couple years now. ..I cant see how its a knock off.
If thats the case hows bout we say tf is a knock off of blacklight. Blacklight is a online only fps with mechs and driods. Smh all fps or any same genre games have similarities, it doesn't mean ones a knock off of an other.

All FPS games are a knock off in terms of gameplay at it's core. They may add a little tweak here and there that makes it their own, but as a whole they all ripped off Duke Nukem 3D or Doom. Once those games popularized the genre, everything after them was an imitation of them.

the term "knock off" seems so cliche now a days. Technically speaking, almost anything could be considered a knock off of something prior.

I generally see it used to downplay the success of something to which something else takes influence from. it's okay for there to be games of similar nature made by different companies. it is the most common occurrence in movies, tv and music.

Things in popular culture that rise in popularity and recognition are the first to be copied and/or exploited by others trying to gain a piece of that pie.

O where back to this question again very original if you wrote it 5months ago!!!

BX813486d ago

Its a solid title that lacks depth but is a very promising start to new ip. Then your a$$ better call somebody..... the rock :)

Foehammer3486d ago

If you're going to take aim at something, might as well aim for the best.

MetroidFREAK213485d ago

No, I personally think this is not a knock-off... Call of Duty has needed some change for awhile now, and sure it may borrow some ideas, Call of Duty uses them to create it's own original content. Every game will borrow from others, that's how ideas come about, but to call AW a knock off, well that's just silly, it won't be anything like Titanfall, as Titanfall wasn't anything like Call of Duty.

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

LordoftheCritics375d ago

Thoroughly enjoyed AW.

Good campaign and everything.

LOGICWINS375d ago

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

RaidenBlack375d 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

CobraKai375d ago

I felt it was a good time to revisit WW2

porkChop375d ago

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

JEECE375d 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.

Baza1624d ago (Edited 1624d ago )

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

Immorals1624d ago

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

Knushwood Butt1624d 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.

Epicor1623d 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!

gamer91624d ago

LOL Advanced Warfare, too funny

Kabaneri1624d ago

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