poor Future Shooters, you came to answer the call of modern shooters, now no one wants you around when you show up...
 
If the mp is as good as 2 then I'm in. Ghosts was trash ans AW is definitely better but it doesn't pull me in and make me want to keep playing.

People are really not wanting another futuristic game already? There's been one futuristic call of duty game. Yeah blops2 and ghosts flirted with some future ideas but it wasn't until AW that they really went whole hog. There were four modern warfare games (in counting ghosts) I could handle a few more future games. I love the Exo suits.

Out of all the recent CODs, Black Ops II is the only one I haven't played that I'm actually interested to. I just really wish Activision would give it reasonable discounts on Steam every now and then because 30-40+ bucks for a 6h campaign from 3 years ago is NOT reasonable. Not even a little.

Hopefully this coming out this year means they might finally get around to that?

y'all should be ashamed
The worst parts of Black Ops 2 was when you were not in the future, so I welcome an all-future type game.
 
I wouldn't worry about the cross-gen thing. It is hugely unlikely Treyarch is doing anything but working on current gen hardware; if there is an old-gen thing it will be a port job by another studio like Forza Horizon 2 or Tomb Raider 2.

I just want Wager Matches back. Sticks & Stones was how I spent most of my time in Black Ops

Call of Duty and FIFA are two games that continue to sell in the millions on old consoles. No way Activision doesn't put this out on ps3 and 360.
 
As long as they keep the exo shit out of the multiplayer, I'll be happy. Can not stand that shit.

Exactly. Especially when you dont have a friendly control scheme for that crap. AW controls were clunky.

Current gen only would finally force people to upgrade... its win win for everyone.
 
I'm all for time travel, let's go. Give me D Day and crazy assassinations and alternate history. Go nuts.

And bring back high stakes wager matches.

Yea I'll be skipping it if it has all that future crap in it.

Least Battlefront 3 comes out around the same time.
 
I see no reason why the game has to be on last gen consoles.

The PS4 and Xone are already WAY ahead of the install base that the 360 and PS3 had when MW1 came out, and being next gen only would push hardware sales in a massive way. Plus people are already transitioning to next-gen far faster than anyone anticipated--to the point that developers have been cancelling last gen versions outright.

I think it would work.

BO, BO2 were great. Coming off the heels of AW? I'd be pretty surprised if CoD continued a downward decline this year.

Because the 360 version of AW sold the most.

edit: in november launch month
 
Software sales are way higher on the "new" consoles... and its like that with every crossgen game.

That wouldn't preclude the game from coming to last gen consoles, though, if there's still a large number of people who play on them. They could probably port it relatively cheaply with a secondary studio. The numbers just have to balance out.

I get what you're saying and everything but this makes me giggle.
Saying that you'll be skipping Black Ops 3 if it's futuristic when Star Wars is as futuristic as it gets.

I wonder if they'll pursue last gen consoles for CoD. AW had another studio working on the PS3/360 version. It would probably benefit the series. I liked BO1 and I played the MP of BO2 quite a bit. I suspect this is coming out in the fall.

::claps: Call of Duty everyone!
 
People complaining about "Future Crap" must be the most boring people in the world
It's like being fond of paintings that only depict sunrises... Milquetoast

Why don't we have Call of Duty: Magical Warfare yet?
