Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Review, Fast but Familiar | For the Love of Gaming

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare doesn't completely reinvent the franchise, but the new Exo Suit and updated engine breathe some fresh air into the series after a few missteps over the past few years.

I don't get how the "familiar" part is a con, it's a sequel?

Harold_Finch3448d ago

The "BUT" in the title...

4logpc3448d ago

Simply because it says but, doesnt mean its a con...

I really liked this game for the first few days.

* Just like Titanfall, Just like Destiny.....the same thing is happening with this game.

It's jut not "doing it" for me. It got old quick and the twitchy fast gameplay isn't that skillful.

I do pretty good, but even doing good in a match isn't satisfying or fun.

No kills or strategy or tactics or anything in the game is all that satisfying.

Some of it is of high quality, in terms of how it looks and the flow, but it's just not that fun.

* It's like there is a skill cap that hits after the first 3-4 days.

You can only get SO good at this game because of all the other BS that is there.

I'm really glad that took this chance though...the series needed it, but I've never wanted a traditional COD more in my life.

I'd love another WaW, or even Black ops 3 or something.

Something about these faster FPS games with "improved" movement, just sucks the fun right out of the game....

It's not like I don't like shooters anymore though.

Plants vs Zombies: Gardenwarfare is much more fun IMO than either of those three new FPS games. yea it's slightly different in that it's 3rd person, but it's balanced better and more fun as a whole.

Glad I didn't trade that in.

Good review. Seems like a good entry, but needed a little more time in development.

MRHARDON3447d ago

Kotick would of blown a head gasket if Sledgehammer asked for more time.

I'm having a blast playing this switching between MP, Exo Survival and the SP. haven't picked up a CoD since the first Black Ops but this is taking me back to the Modern Warfare style entry. Action packed SP with those "oh crao!" moments and the MP side is extremely fun too. Glad I picked this up

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

LordoftheCritics373d ago

Thoroughly enjoyed AW.

Good campaign and everything.

LOGICWINS373d ago

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

RaidenBlack373d 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

CobraKai373d ago

I felt it was a good time to revisit WW2

porkChop373d ago

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

JEECE373d 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.

Baza1622d ago (Edited 1622d ago )

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

Immorals1622d ago

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

Knushwood Butt1622d 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.

Epicor1622d 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!

gamer91622d ago

LOL Advanced Warfare, too funny

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