'Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare' trailer (PC/XB1/PS4/360/PS3, Nov 4th) [Up: Info]

The fact that the explosion effects, particles, lighting and animations are better aswell as the leak months ago that said sledgehammer was making a new engine make me believe its a new engine. No way this shares any tech with the 720p X1 Ghosts. I think it will be 1080p on both platforms aswell if this trailer is put up in 1080p since its x1 footage.

900p or slightly below on XB1 is my personal guess.

Shit... I remember now, lol.

Between doggy warfare and advanced fish AI they took the cake.
 
Cool. So Netflix is partnering with XBL Gold so that their Season 3 of House of Cards is on Xbox One in the form of Call of Duty?
 
It likely is.

I already saw a reused running animation during the 2:10 mark in the trailer.

Yup, and at the :35 mark there is a civilian at the bottom right corner wearing a brown/burgandy shirt. The way he stumbles, that's the same scared civilian running away animation in every single COD since 4.
 
That actually looked damn good. Can't wait to see what these mechanics will bring to multiplayer. If Spacey is in it, think there's a chance that the very Idris Elba looking soldier is legit too?

Considering how badly the new tech in Ghosts was implemented and if this trailer is 1080p when its put on Youtube I don't see them being able to not get legally screwed up. No horse in the race though, likely buying it for PC/PS4. Wonder how sledgehammer will handle matchmaking vs server browser.

Aw fucking Dammit.

It's the same game + super jumping.

Why do they need another future warfare game? Black Ops 2 already done that.

Ugh, I'm disappointed.

That's not going to change until we get a true, next-gen only version. Maybe 2016 or 2017, no way in hell Activision will even remotely give up sales so long as past-gen is healthy.

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.
It's the most boilerplate cartoon villain dialogue. It says that:

Democracy and Freedom is wrong, and America is wrong for trying to spread Democracy and Freedom (because that's what our wars were about, right?)

And that people would be so much better off without Democracy and Freedom.

it's just so propagandist and dull

Looks cool. I guess the fact that it's from a completely different studio this time around and not IW or Treyarch is what's allowing me to keep my mind open. I'll have no pre-conceived notions about what to expect going into this (although since it does carry the Call of Duty brand, I'm not expecting anything earth-shatteringly new).
 
Remember Glen Schofield is involved, the man, the myth and the legend behind Dead Space 1. Potentially this could be the best CoD campaign ever.

Wait, I tought this new CoD was going to be Next-gen only but it shows a 360 version as well at the end of the trailer... oh well. Smart move to use the Warfare word on the title since Modern Warfare series is like, the most popular on the CoD franchise. Looks kinda cool! Hope it's packed with tons of non-stop action as shown in the trailer and not just, "Walk to a certain point, hide and then shoot. Find a guy, protect him and repeat"

Just because its 1080 on youtube has nothing to do with the actual res of the game. Remember, "every" game on X1 you see is 1080

I don't mind. I'd love it if it was current gen only, but it doesn't matter all too much to me as long as it's fun. I was just trying to point out to someone that kept saying it was a new engine.

I don't understand the excitement, looks like the same super scripted shit with on rails segments as always.

Visually it looks better but not by much and not as good as the GI screen or the soldier one that leaked, just another typical COD, not a reboot or even a refinement, at least judging by the trailer.
