"The devs seem to have taken everything we know as “modern warfare” — every detail, every aspect of an environment, every thing — thrown it onto a canvas, and Bob Ross’ed it with a giant futuristic paint brush."
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.
Game Rant Writes "With rumors swirling about a sequel to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Sledgehammer Games can bring back a few weapons for a modern encore."
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.
Story wise.. black opps 3 was all over the place. Modern Warfare story is so much more cohesive and actually makes sense.
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.
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!
The campaign was OK, but the guns sounded like cap guns and the multiplayer maps were not memorable at all.
Why do we have to wait a whole year for a new COD!. Can't they speed up development a bit and release one every six months :(
This is the problem right here. They are focusing on implementing new futuristic weaponry to wow us with climatic set pieces instead of focusing on things like a good story. I honestly couldn't care less about how futuristic the weapons are, i just want a good, long story, (along with an upgrade to the multiplayer) which no Call of Duty has ever done.
Excited for this game!
Too much like a playable movie for my liking. Essentially an on-rails shooter like all the other CODs.
