Huh? The ASM1 was the overpowered gun. BAL-27 was nerfed (still good,but is a gun being good an actual problem?). AK is balanced. The rest of your rant is opinion, yet you wrote that out as if you were laying out facts.
With as popular as black ops has become I could see them going current gen only. It would be more likely to get people to upgrade than Advanced Warfare from an unproven developer.
The difference between codZ and your typical horde mode is the amount of effort put into making it and all the content from that effort. So much art has been made, and good music, and a overarching plot connecting everything. Every map has character dialog more extensive than a grunt or yelp of pain, the characters have personality and joke about things. Many of the map secrets are subtler and, though detailed and interesting, a player who just wants a zombie shooting horde mode can do exactly that. The content is as deep or shallow as you choose to go.I never got the hype for zombies. Its just a boring horde mode. And Zombies... zombies is even more stale than a futures setting.
Create something new for Coop. Or simply let me play the campaign in Coop.
No, but when using any other gun (aside from the three mentioned) puts you at a significant disadvantage, the gun balance of the game is obviously horribly off. People can shit on Ghosts all day because of its time to kill and maps, but the weapon balancing was excellent in the game.
And, that's not true at all. Maybe you are only remembering the initial day of release, but that is not true at all now. And it would be best to stop the spreading of incorrect information. There are 10 guns I personally rotate myself, and I regularly run the rooms with other advanced players.

Good point. If there was any COD developer that could get people to go to next gen, it would be Treyarch.
I feel bad for people who like advanced warfare.. that was as bad as ghosts IMO!
Every stream I watch it is the same thing over and over. Bal27, Bal27 and more Bal27. For a few weeks people were using the ASM1, but now it's back to the Bal27.
I am going to have to disagree with you. SHG has been on the ball with buffs/nerfs. At the current state of the game right now you can do great with every gun if you learn how to use it. People can shit on AW all they want but everyone was complaining COD wasn't innovative enough so they add Exo-Suits which is pretty innovative, then everyone complains about it. Make up your minds people!
So, the official game description says it's for next-gen hardware.
Is this current gen exclusive or is last gen still hanging on?
Not that it really matters, since Treyarch won't work the last gen ports any ways ...
Well im talkimg strictly mutliplayer if that matters. I stop playing cod campaigns in the middle of BO1.Nothing will be as bad as Ghosts. And when you have a game such as Call of Duty 3 - a game from a studio that is now considered the A-team of the Call of Duty series - that's saying something considering Ghosts came from what not only used to be the A-team, but from the developer who gave us one of the best FPS games ever and one of the most defining games ever.
Advanced Warfare was a great game. It was hardly gonna win GOTY awards, but as blockbuster spectacles go, I had much, much fun with it.

It'll play well and it'll look good. It's all going to hinge on the maps.
I still don't think any of the Heavy weapons are very good, with the exception of the OHM. I still have some fun using the EM1 because it's a nice change of pace to use hipfire, but I do feel I'm at a disadvantage while using it.
The pistols are all pretty bad too, but they're pistols so I don't mind that.

Hopefully no exo suit this time. Hated those in AW. Get the fucking boost out of my CoD.

There was a non-exo playlist.
With Black Ops 2 being extremely popular, I'd say this game will definitely be cross gen. Activision will want to squeeze the remaining 7th gen player base for everything before next year.
Pistols (sans a couple of variants) aren't really good. no argument there. However the EM1 (ESPECIALLY ON PC) is one of the best guns in the game. Best hipfire, TTK is 2-3 seconds, tops. Can kill across the map with ease.
Also, the Pytek has incredible variants. OHM is really good. It may need a nerf.

I've heard about the EM1 on PC's, and I really wish I could've played it on the Wii U with pointer controls, but I'm playing on the Xbone unfortunately and I'm still not 100% comfortable with the controls. It feels pretty poor up close(against BAL and SMGs), and at a distance, but is great in mid-range.
I know, problem was that the maps were made with the Exo suits in mind, so playing around on those maps without the suits sucked almost even more.
...Don't you mean WWII?
Don't know about that exact description, but it sounds right. Robotics, dashing, wall running, the works.
Yeah what sources? he's just some random dude on the internet, sorry to break it to you.
There is a mode called "Classic" which did just that!

I haven't played AW in a month or two to be honest with you, so I'm not exactly up to date on anything they've done to it since. I do remember the BAL-27 still being good after it got nerfed (did they nerf it again?), and the AK had virtually zero recoil. Most people were still using those guns at the time I stopped playing. Perhaps the ASM1 is the OP gun now, but it wasn't then. As for the rest of my rant, I stated it as fact because it is.
Saying that Advanced Warfare is a great game is more of an opinion than anything I stated.
- Horrible weapons / score streaks = FACT
- 7.5 seconds to plant/disarm a bomb in S&D = FACT
- Small maps = FACT
- EXO suits ruining the flow of most objective-based game types = FACT
I hope weapon variants are gone too, really sucks not being able to use certain guns because you weren't lucky enough, and I imagine it makes balancing the game more difficult too.

Blops 2 did a disservice to fans by forcing the plot up in your face and making survival more about stress than fun (specifically in Tranzit and Die Rise), but the amount of and quality of the total experience has rather consistently been much higher than the vast majority of horde modes in games. I think Gears of War 3's horde mode is a good example of the lazy, slapped together "boring horde mode" you mentioned. CodZ is not.
