Ah, E3 is gonna be good.
Unless MS are extremely confident in this game, I don't understand how a new IP could be considered a system seller, especially when you consider Sony's launch lineup
New IPs are the cheapest exclusives probably. And we had many hits. Halo, Mass Effect, Gears, Uncharted and etc. It all depends on the quality of the game and good marketing behind it. An example is Gears of War, quality new IP with great marketing push behind it.
I'll say it again...there is zero indication that Respawn has what it takes to make a great game. They are brand new studio. Yeah sure they have a lot of people from IW, but so what? We'll see if the final product reflects their FPS pedigree, whatever remains of it.
Not a CoD fan, but IW was able to make a great game with CoD 4, so that is some indication. Obviously execution is key.

Infinity Ward made the best COD games but how much of their staff is at respawn?

As per Wikipedia, 38 out of 46 Infinity Ward employees who resigned in 2010 joined Respawn Entertainment. That's a significant number.

Huh, didn't realise so many left for Respawn. That should put any doubts anyone has to rest, it's essentially no different from Bungie leaving MS.

Another FPS? I must be getting burned out on gaming, because this news makes me want to gag.
It's only 36-38 though, plus West is no longer there. It really depends which engineers they got with them, as their game engine made CoD what it is now. Not much faith in Source, BUT, concept sounds really cool though.

Would stuck being ill for a day and coming back to a ghost town.8 of the 11 engineers, 2 of the 4 engineering leads, 3 of the 4 design leads, 11 of 19 from Design & Sculpting, etc. Take a look, outside of of the Art and Quality Assurance teams, almost every other team at the old Infinity Ward was gutted

i hsve faith of them making a great game but for it to be a CoD4 hit? idk

If securing third party exclusives is anti-consumer then so is owning first party studios. There's practically no difference aside from when the studio's exclusivity was secured and for how long.
I personally have no doubt it's going to be great. Insane Buttocks on a Subway confirmed it's going to be "Big".
going to be amazing... Remember the reaction to modern warfare at e3...
what if this repeats that trick...
You don't honestly believe that do you?
First party titles are built exclusively for one system without even thinking of selling on a competing platform.
kotaku said said:The source said multiplayer would support 16 players but that Respawn would add AI-controlled characters to make the action more frenetic and to give novice players a greater chance to score some kills.
So you'd say that third party exclusives are fine as long as the deal is brokered before development starts?
So we've been talking about CoD 4 a lot, so I'm just curious, has anyone played it recently (the multiplayer that is)? Is there still people playing it? I actually found my old CoD 4 disc a few weeks ago and have been tempted to play it just to see how it holds up.
MP is fucked.
Not even worth popping the disc in?
If it's 360 no, on PS3 you'll get into a hacked lobby 1/3 of the time.Not even worth popping the disc in?
It's worth it to see what some people are doing. Weird glitches all over the place.

expect more of this. much more. microsoft are going to be completely ruthless when it comes to leverage.
The modified source engine rumor is a bit puzzling. While the engine was top of the line in 2004 it hasn't aged well at all IMO. And to compare the GFX of Respawns game to the BF4 Fising in Baku vid is completely ridiculous given that that demo was running on a $700 GPU.
wow, had no idea that many. The Respawn game should be pretty good then.
