Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 (PC/XB1/PS4) reveal trailer, screens, info, more [Read OP]

Overwatch is vaguely MOBA-like in the sense that you pick from a variety of unique characters who have abilities and are divided into roles, but that's where the similarities end. No leveling up, no shops, no creeps, etc. as far as we know.

This is cross-gen.
Treyarch is working on current generation only but a last generation version is being outsourced, most likely to High Moon Studios.

Looks good so far! Treyarch has made my favorite CoD games so far and I can't wait to try out the beta when it comes out
so we might get a ALPHA around E3?
Sounds like it. I wonder how they'll build up the narrative, since it's heavily scripted in all previous games since a long time.
I hope not. Expand on the multiplayer campaign and make it like Chromehounds where it feels like an actual battleground with places being taken after each match with a map showing who owns what and where fights are happening.

watching these videos has me a lot more hyped for the game. I'm still skeptical about the class system. It sounds like we cant even pick our own guns and customize them anymore?

1. Hit detection was ass.
2. Way too much health you could shoot a guy in the back he turns and C4s you, making Hardcore a must play mode.
3. Maps became predictable as hell because there were only 3 paths on most.

And from little we've seen of the game, it's not exactly a graphical show piece. A 360/PS3 port doesn't seem like the graphical downgrade that Advanced Warfare was (and even then the 360 version sold best).
I liked it a lot. Used to be a big CoD fan but took a break for a few years. Liked the gameplay changes in AW a good deal, particularly in the campaign.
Overwatch from Blizzard is more like TF2 with MOBA ability sets.
Battleborn from Gearbox is the FPS MOBA game.
Take the impressions with a grain of salt.
They go to these events, feel privileged to be there, and always sing the games' praises. It was those same YouTuber's who though the Exo movements were the Second Coming when they first got to play AW. They even praised Call of Duty: Ghosts when they got to play it first.

I actually could see myself playing a lot this in co-op. Unfortunately this year has too many big releases of my interest, so I believe I won't find money or time to get this. Let's see what happens.
Graphically it seems quite disappointing though. Those screenshots of AW seems more impressive then what I've seen in the trailer.

Sorry, some people dislike dying in two bullets from every direction.
COD game never get cheaper than $30 do they?
I doubt it. They did an Alpha for Destiny because it was a brand new IP. They don't need an Alpha for a game that they have made so many times.
I didn't take that at all. I could be wrong, but it sounds more like you pick and are stuck with your specialist for the game, but create-a-class is still a thing that you can change after every death.

Its not your real beta key. Its just the way Ubisoft does it with the Rainbow Six Siege Beta.
Its a small code to secure your access. You redeem that code on callofduty.com (but login is down at the moment lol)

Does it? this was the first screen for AW
compared to this
bad art aside, looks like a regression in every way on the technical front.

If you're gonna show off 4k, at least save the screenshots correctly. Artifacts everywhere.

Graphicaly the game looks worse than AW. The game literally took wall running from Titanfall..Looks like AW2 came early -_-.
Crazy how both new Cod and BF releases will looked worse graphically than their predecessors.

Photoshop?
For anyone worried about movement systems, or similarities to AW, or maps being vertical like AW, or any other fears that would be fixed if you could play it: watch the videos from the YouTubers who played the game for hours this weekend.

Also, PC version is high-priority this year. From The Guardian:
"The studio has also claimed that the PC version is a priority this year, with support for high-end rigs and 4K monitors, as well as scalable options for lower-end machines."

It seems the scale is a lot bigger in BO3 than in AW, so I can get by that.
Thanks for this!
looks more like Armored Core to me
Awful spawns.
Exo.
Awful netcode.
Awful Scorestreaks.
Pretty good sp.
Best looking CoD so far.

Fine. I'll be ACTUALLY happy when they give ACTUAL Dedicated Servers back (with mod support pls_)
Ok I dont give a shit about MP so this sounds good
Bad designed metal gear. Too much.
I liked AW, especially the campaign which blowed my mind for 6h, but I'm not ready for the Deus Ex-trip and I never really liked Treyarch's work (Black Ops 1 campaign aside).

So the maps aren't going to be on multi level like on AW and there isn't any boost packs??
Fml titanfall and AW changed what I expect from FPS forever I can't go back

MOBA meets FPS! Sounds amazing.
Mind you, the online community spawned from that will be as if from the very depths of hell..

It's probably the best Call of Duty campaign post-COD4.
It feels like a big budget movie and they vary the gameplay quite significantly level to level. You can see the money that was put into it.

If they have dedicated servers and a server browser for pc I'll buy it. I say this every time and they still don't have server browsers :/
