Do I need the season pass to get the additional COD4 maps? That's my level of excitement. I didn't even bother with the beta this weekend.

I don't think so.

No, the remaining six maps of COD4 will be released for free to MWR owners in December.

Campaign looks abysmal. We've already had space shootouts in Ghosts and we've seen the series try to force pilot sections into the engine many times. I truly cannot see how this should be any more compelling now. The simple level layouts and generic assets make this look like a total pass.
Black Ops III was the worst CoD multiplayer I've ever played - constrained maps, derivative customization/progression, and blatantly tacked on movement. Making a follow up to that was the absolute last thing I wanted to see from Infinity Ward this year.
Still getting it for MWR tho!

It has been zero ever since the forced MWR bundling was confirmed, obviously it was done to sell a shitty game. Now the beta confirmed that it's a shitty microtransaction filled game, so I have no interest in this at all.

I didn't actually mind Blops3 the maps weren't amazing but overall I thought it was the best cod for a couple years.
I'll try IW but I'll probably be a few prestiges deep in MWR by then.

Its too similar to Black Ops 3, and seems inferior.
Map design so far is pretty bad, are they actually going to have a Ground War mode with these maps?
The visuals are not as good, the sound design is not as good. The movement system and the Rigs abilities are a copy of Black Ops 3.
Why make this game when practically a same game exists.
I whis this was its own thing, even Ghosts 2 would've been interesting.

I'll probably wait for a sale. Nothing against COD, but I've got several other games on the go. It's too bad there wasn't a PC beta. I probably would have bought the MW remaster on launch if it was sold separately. Oh well.
Wat.

It's incredibly sad to see all the lukewarm / negative reactions surrounding Infinite Warfare yet people still purchasing due to MW Remaster.
I mean I was almost guilty of it too but that was before they confirmed that the Infinite Warfare disc would be required. And while I realize this one lost sale means nothing to Activision, I still can't support such a shitty tactic.
In a perfect world everyone would just stick to Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2 for their shooter needs and wait for MW remaster to be sold separately. Fuck Activision and Infinite Warfare. This game deserves to bomb.

I'm impressed that you still seem to believe it's worth trying to change the minds around here.
What can I say? I'm optimistic. Sometimes.

Ghosts sold around 17 million copies. And yet in spite of this, they're dropping a Ghosts sequel and creating a whole new trilogy.People acknowledging its not a good game but still buying it...you do know you're part of the problem, right?
Kinda same with people who are buying it just for MWR. I mean, I know you want MWR, but this is sending the wrong message in the area where it counts the most: sales. So, if it works, and IW sells a ton even if it's rated poorly by critics and shooter fans, will mean Activision will know how to manipulate gamers.
Re-release MW2 with anything they're not confident about, and it'll do well. Sound marketing strategy if ever. Just saying that "vote with your wallet" thing should apply to games that deserve it.
But yeah, people are definitely free to do what they want to do and such. But don't be surprised if Acti does it again next time -- least of all, don't complain if MW2R is tucked away again.
I'm pretty sure they look at more than just the sales.

The beta killed any interest I had in the game the multiplayer feels like a black ops 3 expansion
its lazy and uninspired
On top of all that the legacy edition is 110$ Canadian dollars and requiring the disc to replay the remaster of modern warfare Fuck that

No hype here. Only want it for the MW remaster but not sure if ill even get it for that now.
They will sell it seperate at some point so ill wait for that I think.

The first CoD that my friends and I aren't going to buy. That's our longest 'get this game and play together' streak in gaming, coming to an end. Nobody is excited for Infinite Warfare, even with MWR bundled in - we will buy that separately the day it goes on sale, but zero interest in what just felt like Ghosts with BO3 tacked on.

The beta felt like a watered down Black Ops 3 with Ghost Movement. I decided to not buy it day one, but hoping for a big black friday sale for the Legacy Edition.

I cancelled my preorder mostly because I'm still really enjoying Destiny, and GAF beta impressions were lukewarm.
I would totally buy Modern Warfare remastered separately. I'd also buy the Infinite Warfare VR thing separately if it ever becomes available.

I have no hype for the gameplay. Sci fi is a nice theme but I cannot care for it when Battlefield 1 did so many things right. You could say I traded CoD for BF since I use to hate The BF series and I've owned all the Black ops games.

It's hilarious that people think that without MWR IW still wouldn't easily be the best selling game of the year by a sizable margin. The delusional surrounding COD's popularity is something to watch.
Anyway, as far as my hype: it's there. I'm not as high on it as usual since it's IW, but the beta was okay, and I'm sure I'll get plenty of fun out of the whole package between SP, multi and zombies.

Not very hyped, unfortunately. As I've said in other threads: the campaign looks amazing, the multiplayer beta felt like a worse playing BO3, and I hate zombies (I want Extinction back).
I'll pick it up eventually, but it's the first CoD game in eight years that I won't be buying day one.

Bought the Legacy Edition Digitally.
Hated the beta. Loved Modern Warfare Remastered campaign, Pumped for the MW Multiplayer, and hopefully the campaign is good, or at least entertaining.
Happy they all support PS4 Pro day one.

Everything I've seen and played has been pretty awful. I've played every COD game since 2 and this will be the first year that I've given the game a hard pass. I really, really hope they eventually sell MWR separately because I can't justify spending $80 just to play a remaster of one of my favorite games.

I'm really hoping the campaign is good. I don't play MP CoD but I'm hurting for a good sci-fi FPS campaign.

Surprisingly, real low. I haven't bought COD or any other shooter in years and I was definitely in the mood for one.
I played the betas for Battlefield, Titanfall and COD and before I played any of them I probably would have ranked my excitement, 1)COD 2)Titanfall and 3)Battlefield.
After the betas, 1)Battlefield, 2) Titanfall and a somewhat distant 3) COD.
I bought Battlefield and I absolutely adore it so far. I'll probably pick up Titanfall sometime this fall or if there's a sale and I might pick up the remastered Modern Warfare whenever they ever unbundle it.
I didn't hate Infinite Warfare, I just liked the other games more.

I am neither hyped or negative about the game. It is another year, another COD. I may get it once it is on sale since I am only interested in the campaign.
