Treyarch's Next AAA Game Pursuing "PC Specific Optimizations And Features"

Historically the PC versions of Call of Duty have played generally well, but many fans of the PC platform often feel let-down by the lack of PC specific features. However, it looks like Treyarch has heard the cries of PC players and are looking to buck the trend with their next title.

I'd like to think their next game is a full-blown, retail zombies game with some new ideas (like parkour in dying light).....but, I suppose they'll just fall in line with activision and churn out another CoD with a another "same old" zombies mode....sigh...

chrish19903396d ago

If only...

Zombies has become a bit stale and there are only so many things they can do with it whilst it's still an additional feature. A full retail, dedicated game exploring the mythos would probably freshen it up a bit.

nucky643395d ago

I thought zombies was getting stale but I'm very excited for dying light - the "go anywhere" approach seems very fresh to me.

OrangePowerz3395d ago

Would probably sell a lot less.

nucky643395d ago

I guess so - but, it sure would be nice if they did try something different.

NuggetsOfGod3395d ago (Edited 3395d ago )

Voxel global illumination please!

And life like mech dinos with mod support!

Won't happen though lol

spicelicka3395d ago

Honestly they should just make zombies into a full big budget campaign, and keep multiplayer the way it is.

The campaigns are useless 6 hour michael bay fests, I would love to see what they could do with a zombie campaign.

Its about time they didn't gimp the PC version.

FlameBaitGod3395d ago

They always say the same thing, it never happens. Same with dedicated servers, they say we gonna add them and at last second they say they wont be able to do it. Activition is a joke, so fking greedy.

NuggetsOfGod3395d ago (Edited 3395d ago )

I agree console fish held pc fish ai back.

If nvidia made fishX I would happy!

matt1393395d ago

I hope so. This would be the first time i pick cod up on pc instead of xbox!

Master-H3395d ago

Please save us, Von. The last two games haven't impressed in the MP department.

traumadisaster3395d ago (Edited 3395d ago )

The best way to see COD pc improvements is to go hi resolution. All but the original will do 3840x2160. They look so crisp and detailed, goin back to 1080 looks like mush.

Modern Warfare 3 Ranked Play Coming During Season 1, Treyarch Handling Development

Modern Warfare 3 Ranked Play will be arriving sometime in the middle of Season 1. Treyarch is once again handling development of it.

Kaii206d ago (Edited 206d ago )

I'll bite.
I don't min/max or alter controller schemes anymore because the default options suit me fine aside from aiming sensitivity, which was freakishly low on default.
But the matchmaking system still does that dissemble-reassemble which I hate and knew that my following games after my first overall score would increase In difficulty, i.e. drop shotters (many more examples)

You've got this ranked play but you have this spm scale that throws you against the sweatwall of hell (2 good games>1 bad game)

Swiftly uninstalled and I save 110+gb

MW3 loses a veteran Call of Duty developer of 18 years

Just 24 hours following the Modern Warfare 3 reveal, former Treyarch Studio Design Director David Vonderhaar has announced he’s stepping away from both the Call of Duty studio and Activision.

MrDead254d ago

Call of Duty development, what's that? They just make the same basic game and keep adding more and more MT's

anast254d ago

He probably should have stepped down 10 years ago.

Harkins1721254d ago

Might as well just quit your job now.

anast254d ago

I am sure you know what you are saying...I think.

Rocketisleague253d ago (Edited 253d ago )

He's a developer in one of the most successful franchises and works from Activision, do you know the benefits you get working there? Or the pay?

Half of the peasants on this site don't understand developers are humans and are working mostly for necessity like the rest of us

Stanjara254d ago

He couldn't have done another one.
Best of luck. Good decision.

U.S. Army Planned to Pay Streamers Millions to Reach Gen-Z Through Call of Duty

Internal Army documents obtained by Motherboard provide insight on how the Army wanted to reach Gen-Z, women, and Black and Hispanic people through Twitch, Paramount+, and the WWE.

isarai514d ago (Edited 514d ago )

It's well known the US Army has been using gaming as a gateway for recruiting for a LOOONG time. Hell even in high school recruiters would ask whoever wasnt interested for their gamertag so they can play Cod together. Not to mention they've sponsored several fps tournaments. Not a conspiracy when it's out in the open. Plus Arma exists so...

Inverno514d ago

Instead of trying to get them to join then military through bs trends why not instead tell em of the benefits that joining the military bring? Least in times of peace and without the threat of war, having your studies paid in full sounds better than "hey you can do what you do in COD by joining the army, isn't that cool?"

kneon514d ago (Edited 514d ago )

The USA has been involved in wars/conflicts for 90+% of its existence so you're unlikely to be in the US Military during peacetime

Old_Scout514d ago

I was a recruiter. You can tell a kid the benefits all day long. Ultimately it's a calling and you just call the right person and do the paperwork.

thorstein513d ago

"I was a recruiter. You can LIE TO a kid about the benefits all day long."

FTFY

thorstein514d ago

I think it is absurd that the US military has millions if not billions of dollars in their advertising budget. It is absurd that they have an advertising budget.

TiredGamer514d ago

Would you prefer forced conscription like in Russia?

gold_drake513d ago (Edited 513d ago )

i had that in austria
wasnt all too bad. 6 months of listening to idiots screaming nonsense. you dont actually participate in any war, but i guess ametica is a different kind of hell when it comes to that. who knows what they'd put ppl through lol

ended up enlisting actually haha. sniper training was like 7 weeks. not a bad life

thorstein513d ago

The alternate to spending millions of dollars on advertising is forced conscription?

Wow, you learn something every day.

Gee, how would anyone in the whole world learn about the US military if it weren't for advertising.

Vengeance1138514d ago

Can't wait to die and respawn in real life! Oh wait...

jznrpg514d ago

We all wish … I’d love to see my baby bro and grandfather again .

TheColbertinator514d ago

@jznrpg

Sorry about your losses, friend.

On topic :

I thought the Army was always using FPS games. This is not new.

HyperMoused514d ago

A bit on the nose isnt it...like killin in the game...join up and kill in real life
