Feels a little like the setting is retreading on Black Ops 2's grounds a bit, with some cooler gadgets. I guess Black Ops 3 will just have to be ninjas then. There's no getting around it.
Except Black Ops 2 built a villain with a motive and background that you can somewhat emphasize with, this just seems to be a generic action movie villain.

It's an improvement over the previous games, but I really don't see where the "amazing visuals" comments are coming from.
 
If you pause during the in game footage, or what it seems to be a first person view. The graphics aren't all that amazing. They're definitely a step up but it's the same old engine.

Underwhelmed by Spacey's character model, but the writing was surprisingly good. But there is no chance of that actually translating to a good story. But I'm actually interested in a Call of Duty since 2009.

Yeah, they showed very good face models before and I thought they are using Nvidia FaceWorks technology but Kevin Spacey face didn't look so good here.

The setting and stuff going looked very good tho.

MGS4, a game about PMCs, made a little CoD reference in an Act 3 cutscene which pointed out how a lot of the PMC soldiers in that game grew up playing first-person shooters adding context to their life choices. CoD has not only further solidified that prophecy with annual iterations, but it has now culminated in a self-aware CoD game about PMCs

starring Kevin Spacey. There won't be a 4th wall to break after this game. You are the videogame now.
 
It looks good but when talking about this game set in the future I was kinda hoping it would be the future even further along then this with laser guns and space stuff.

are we watching the same video? Its the exact same engine as before with what seems to be better facial capture and everyone is saying "titanfall what!??!" I suppose these games just aren't for me anymore, but my gosh that wasn't impressive at all graphically

I agree. Maybe it was just because the video had a relatively low resolution...I don't know.
 
I predict a shocking plot twist where he actually becomes the adversary by the end of the game. No Kevin Spacey in a mech suit would be a missed opportunity.

This game's very existence has to be to get Kevin Spacey into a mech as he shouts insults in your general direction and you shoot in his. Automatic 0/10 if Spacey doesn't suit up. I'm talking full-on Stephen Lang in Avatar mode, complete with the giant combat knife.

One of the fascinating new additions to your squad is Kevin Spacey. We've had famous actors in Call of Duty before, but never like this. This is someone you care about - this is a squad member. He does everything from sniffing out explosives to protecting the team.

Correct me if I'm mistaken but wasn't there someone in gaf (the banned sony "insider" dude maybe?) saying that Acti will drop Microsoft marketing partnership this time around? I guess he is wrong again?

He's wrong on that.

But he's right on everything else regarding this game.

He said it wasn't Treyach, it was on a 3 year dev cycle, it's set in a future setting, and that it won't be a ripoff, but will have significant Titanfall influence. ( and claims Treyach COD will practically be TF)

Besides, considering the rumours of this game being shown at Playstation Destination ended up being true, there was some merit to that rumour.

We'll find out more information soon, but it might be because they are still using the same engine or maybe it's because of cross-gen limitations. It's disappointing.

Lack of actual gameplay. Typical activision cgi trailer. Looks like cod is taking the halo jumping the shark route. Dumb abilities game being made by a third party who never touched the best versions of the series

Hopefully 2015 cod is all next gen.
Ill grab it on pc when i can get it for under $15

didnt he also say ps4 was the lead platform?
 
Wow. I have not been this impressed by a Call of Duty trailer in SO long. The visuals look FANTASTIC. Day ONE.

DAY ONE.

This looks way better than Ghosts.

I didn't see any CGI at all. That was all in engine. Also to be fair that was like 2-5 seconds of gameplay lol.

Hey, how about you give them a chance. Huh?

Well, that looks pretty damn awesome.

Shame it isn't third person :/ I'd probably for sure get into this game. Really liking the art style, and the acting, as well as the graphics.

I honestly don't know why they don't make a third person shooter. Just look at this trailer. The entire thing is third person. Why? Because it looks way, way better.

If CG Kevin Spacey doesn't get into a mech at some point in that game with nothing but his face exposed, then Sledgehammer totally fucked this up.

want.

i have a feeling this game may be close to Titanfall... but replace the titans with tanks, choppers, etc...

if there's wall running it will only confirm my thoughts... like.. the exo skeleton suits is like a dead giveaway for the possibility of it.

could be setup as a perk.


either way... looks amazing... makes ghosts look like chump change.

Was it? Have you seen Infamous, or battlefield 4? Because it certainly was not insane.
Definitly was on a higher level in my opinion, even hits future soldier levels with what I think was the use of global illumination. Easily the best lighting Ive seen and I play mainly PC.

Hey guys, looks like we're getting Black Ops 3 a year early!

Looks like Call of Duty, with more bulky armor and bulky character models. Couldn't believe how many people said they were excited in the Game Informer reveal thread, same shit, different clothing. Digital Kevin Spacey is the best thing about this trailer.

"Advanced Warfare", jesus. So promethean vision and Perfect Dark hover bikes are that different from the typical CoD status quo?

I don't like CoD at all. Like... AT ALL AT ALL. I was disappointed by Titanfall...

This looks fucking awesome.

The impossible has happened. I was actually impressed by a CoD trailer.

In what way was it good? Correct grammar?
Sound grammar helps. His monologue closely parallels some arguments you hear in American foreign policy dialogue. With Spacey's delivery, it sounded surprisingly cogent. It establishes not only Spacey's motivations, but the scope of the game. Note that I have no idea where the plot of Call of Duty has gone since MW1 and MW2. So if you just imagine there has been no CoD for me since 2009, this looks alright.
