Raven Software Developing MW Remastered + Crash/Backlot/Crossfire Confirmed For MP
- Thread starter Kralamoonard
- Start date
In my opinion, MW is still the best in the series. I don't care about exo sceletons, wall running, etc, and hate what the series have turned into. Pretty sure many others feel the same. This is good news.
Um, every campaign is different. Remastering it with new graphics is pretty cool, especially since Call of Duty 4 is one of the best video games ever made.
This is like asking why they remade Pokemon Sapphire.

While I loved Call of Duty 4 for its time, I really dont think i will go back to it. It was in my opinion the best Call of Duty game, and the maps are great. Im sure I would get a nostalgia kick out of it, but its also a game that I can comfortably leave in my past.
Same. I think in playing it, I'd just be trying to chase the good times I had back then.

I am honestly willing to buy Infinite Warfare to get MW Remastered. I'm sure Infinite will be worth the $20 it would cost in addition compared to a $40 standalone version of MW.

has this been confirmed? it is Activision after all.
if the standalone version isnt available at launch then i expect a lot of buying and reselling infinite warfare day one lol
I will be very much interested to see the playerbase stats both around launch and x months after launch for both MWR and Infinite Warfare for all platforms. I feel one of the more interesting debates to come out of all this is how large/wide the community will be spread and if there will be any surprising numbers that come out of all this.
I see people joking that MWR will have a more active player-base than the NEW CoD, but a part of me actually wants this to ring true to see how this'll shape the future of the series from a development stand-point. They haven't confirmed if IW will be on previous-gen platforms, but if that turns out to be the case, you can be sure that that will only go to spread the community even thinner across not just one new game this time, but two.
Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if MWR is exclusive only to these bundles already announced, but I hope Activision have the courtesy to release it stand-alone, even if it is without the single-player campaign.

I have no interest in Infinite so I'll get the $80 version for like $70 with GCU and sell IW for $45-50 making MWR $20

Wow, I thought Raven Software was dead. Guess they kinda are if they're still stuck working on Call of Duty.
Edit: Not my favourite maps but whatever. I'm back in.

just goes to show that whenever a new CoD gets released and you get all the people laughing that it looks "last gen" that they are full of shit
I think they just have a short memory that's all (though, I guess lots of them are just hating and trolling), I bet those people forgot how old COD looked like and they have a mental image of the game looking close to the new one.
But yea, they couldn't be more wrong.

Can't fucking wait for MW.
I remember the people proclaiming that this was fake, and so sure of it too in the other thread.
Smart of Activision to do, and the easiest, most brilliant way to guarantee sales. They won't care which of the two games you bought the Legacy Edition for, a sale is a sale. Just for that I don't see them selling it standalone anytime soon, if ever at all.
Funny enough, as good as I knew MW1 was, I only played the beta on Xbox 360 back then (a lot though), I think I was playing another shooter at the time. But MW2, that was the COD I spent craaaaaaaazy hours in.
I'd like to have this remaster on its own, but to me, I'd go nuts for a MW2 remaster.

No, it hasn't been confirmed, but people have been throwing around that number for a MW standalone release.

Or not sell it but return it -- if you're not intending on playing it at all, at least. Surely your local game shop has a 1 week returns policy on the game?

Oh duh, if I return it back to Amazon will they refund 60 or 80?

No idea -- however, once you open the package and get the code for the MW Remaster, not sure if it'll still hold water.
Need better quality photos on the "new" side, because that looks pretty damn bad to me. :/ Overly saturated bloom to show off "MAH LIGHTENS." :/
I wonder if they're going to do a PC version and drop support for dedicated servers. That'd be a hilarious fiasco waiting to happen. If they did do a PC port, I'd probably rebuy it just for the sake of Steam achievements.

Are they the ones had used to make the x-men legends games?
They are going to have to do some work on that MP to get me to play it for more than a week. If it's exactly the same as the original, what's the point? I don't give a shit about just prettied up graphics, I've already put my time in MW MP. Prestige 10 and everything.
They can start by fixing most of the lingering issues. Maybe throw in Kill Confirmed or something, I don't know.
To be fair, there are plenty of people like me who never played MW, so who knows.

It says this on the Playstation site.
"*Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered contains only 10 MP maps from the original Call of Duty: Modern Warfare game. Modern Warfare Remastered is a full game download. Internet connection required. For more information, please head here."

I can't speak for everyone else, but I found the quality over quantity aspect of the multiplayer to strike a level of balance that the series hasn't been able to capture since they throwing everything at the wall. I felt like there was a counter to everything, and because of that, it's my favorite in the series.

Looked up the mw maps and realised most of my favourites that I remember are from mw2.
It's going to feel pretty fresh though after 10 years.

Heh, I'll probably be picking this up at midnight, so I'll more than likely just buy it, open it, take out the Remastered voucher, and just trade in Infinite Warfare on the spot.

Is it not standalone?

This remaster is genius honestly. They can now appease both fans of the futuristic newer CODs and the fans of the older style at the same time, and at $20 more than a standalone game I'm sold.
