Support NeoGAF

[Samoon]

No COD footage will ever impress me since COD4 first premiered.

 

[DaBoss]

The next-gen AI system seems to be broken, the fish aren't moving away often and aren't moving fast.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Microsoft saw this and said get out of our conf no doubt

Ha.

 

[R_thanatos]

Look like current gen game.
Same gameplay as before with no tweaks whats so ever.
Congrats

 

[Triggerhappytel]

I'm not really a fan of modern war FPSs, but I've hot to admit from a level design perspective I find that more interesting than the BF4 fishing in Baku reveal trailer. At least with this they're trying to do something different.

 

[Always-honest]

They can't be serious, they kept the entire countdown in the uploaded video. What a waste of bandwidth. Steven Seagal's Letterbox 2000 is an interesting choice there at the end. And the engine looked rough currently, forthcoming gen isn't the leap I expected at least.

Yep, this is the best that next gen will ever be like. A compressed stream of a multiplat launch game

 

[Castle Doctrine]

Gun looks so out of place in such a beautiful underwater environment. Shame.

 

[sn00zer]

How does that not look incredible to people? I dont like CoD and can admit that was pretty fucking good looking

 

[Twinduct]

Not sure what I expected and my expectations weren't high at all. Then again I got more annoyed that we're seeing the same old set piece again. Feels pretty much the same as BF4 where no amount of GFX will actually make the game better :/

 

[Toa TAK]

Amazing they didn't pick up on that.

 

[Noof]

This barely even qualifies as gameplay.

 

[Sweet Aunt Nancys Panties]

Killzone Shadow Fall makes this looks like a damn TurboGFX game.

I love that they really don't seem to play it safe this time! I wouldn't have expected anything less from the iconic dev-team called Infinity Ward!

The answer lies somewhere in between these two hilarious extremes.

because we saw the BF4 17min gameplay video, thats why

[Jibbajabbawockky]

Welcome to Call of Duty campaigns.

 

[ChanDangle]

They are playing so incredible safe with the franchise that there is no other option for this to go wrong at some point in time. And I do enjoy the CoD multiplayer games a lot!

This, no matter how many people knock it here. The game will sell like the previous installments.

 

[Polk]

Why they are falling underwater?

 

[Goldenmoney]

Not impressed, but single player is irrelevant in call of duty. Multiplayer is what we need to see.

 

[Joeki11a]

It was a Snoozer, no pun intended
Here is hoping they play another part at the
Conference or better yet show what people
want to see, Multiplayer.

 

[Majanew]

Exactly what's next-gen about it? Activision finally has the game at 720p? Ghosts looks like it's running on Xbox 360. Pathetic.

 

[brandonh83]

Yeah it looks great and I don't like CoD either. No wonder devs are under so much pressure concerning graphics.

 

[Hale-XF11]

Actually, the more I think about it, the more offended I am that they're calling it "gameplay."

 

[Dysun]

Doesn't make me want to upgrade from my PS360 if I'm a dudebro, that's for sure. Looks like another annual CoD

 

[Ragnarsson]

Looks like... Call of Duty. Although instead of walking/running through a corridor, you're swimming. Next gen gameplay. Wasn't interested before. Still not interested.

 

[Fabrik]

WTF they're talking underwater? looooool
This franchise is in degeneration mode. Funny for the next generation iteration.

 

[Meus Renaissance]

OP, do you have the right link? All that was 5 mins of swimming

 

[clav]

If we're comparing apples to apples, take a look at the latest Battlefield gameplay.

 

[AngryMoth]

Yeah not very impressive at all graphically. And looks painfully scripted even for cod

edit: did they say what it was running on?

 

[TedNindo]

I'm not really a fan of modern war FPSs, but I've hot to admit from a level design perspective I find that more interesting than the BF4 fishing in Baku reveal trailer. At least with this they're trying to do something different.

It only looks different because of the setting. They are trying to be different in the most shallow way possible. If anything. The gameplay only seems more restrictive because it's underwater.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

How does that not look incredible to people? I dont like CoD and can admit that was pretty fucking good looking

I agree it looks pretty nice for a 60fps game. I also liked how the giant shit falling in the water looked and sounded.

I currently have no interest in actually playing it, however.

Why they are falling underwater?

Yeah, parts of that scene were a little confusing.

 

[SniperHunter]

Microsoft saw this and said get out of our conf no doubt

i agree

 

[Vol5]

Pretty poor for a next-gen reveal.

 

[Anteater]

How does that not look incredible to people? I dont like CoD and can admit that was pretty fucking good looking

Yea I do think it looks good graphically. I don't think the new call of duty is a bad looking game at all especially at 60fps.

I don't like the section in the video though, underwater corridor for 5mins and triggering an event

 

[Mango Positive]

I'd say it looks to be a marked improvement over the other current-gen system games. If you're not a PC gamer, then that should look very good to you.

 

[synce]

They know they don't have to show real gameplay, hell the box art could just have the title on it and it would sell 10 million copies.

 

[sn00zer]

SO right now can anyone name a better looking underwater environment?...seriously

Not going into defense mode, but that is easily the best in game underwater environment ever

 

[tatotiburon]

lmao

 

[apesh1t]

dem, fish got the AI of dah cloud

 

[Liamario]

I love that they really don't seem to play it safe this time! I wouldn't have expected anything less from the iconic dev-team called Infinity Ward!

 

[Big Baybee]

Safest place to be during an underwater explosion is in an old cylindrical building hanging sideways off of an underwater cliff.

 

[zoukka]

Looks like it's easy to downport to current gen devices.

Also the gameplay looked just completely braindead. Zero replayability.

The invention of the radio has eluded NeoGaf

 

[AGoodODST]

I know the CoD games are at least solid experiences, but damn, that was just so depressingly dull and samey.

A visual upgrade isn't enough the shake the feelings of deja vu and series fatigue, at least for me.

 

[Servbot24]

That gameplay was basically a tour of the assets they made, and those weren't even impressive. I know there's a lot more to the game, but if they want to excite people then shouldn't they show more than a guy pushing forward on a controller?

 

[amar212]

Safest place to be during an underwater explosion is in an old cylindrical building hanging sideways off of an underwater cliff.

My thoughts exactly. If specops soldiers were that stupid US blackops tems would accomplish nothing ever.

 

[Canis lupus]

I'm unimpressed.

 

[metalslimer]

That's every CoD. They all have terrible 45 minutes in their 4-5 hour campaign that's just unreplayable

 

[UnblessedSoul]

Using the old engine is holding any potential back

 

[Tomat]

If they want to show of the tension of a low action stealth kind of level they need to go back and watch the CoD4 premier because this one missed the mark completely. Would have rather seen any other level really.

Coming off of Black Ops II this was pretty lame. The CoD singleplayer is enjoyable as far as scripted action movie shootfests go (Black Ops II was probably one of the best alongside CoD4). This level was nothing. At least in the CoD4 premier you're crawling through a field of tanks and soldiers. Here you've got what, two dudes?
