Another SPR gif. The opening is just something else man.

You know, it's pretty disgusting how little cover they had on the beach, I don't think we will ever really know how it must have felt running up that beach.

Some of the bravest men is for damn sure.

My only (tiny personal) gripe is that the scale felt small in retrospective, at least when you see the beach from that perspective and then see actual pictures of what the beach landing looked like

That's why I always wanted to see what modern tech could do. You can capture that scale digitally

 

[SolidSnakex]

I think their kind of treating this as a "reboot".

Haven't sales been kind of flat for the previous few COD games?

They've definitely slowed down, although they still tend to be the best selling game released each year. But the most popular games in the series are unquestionably those that are more grounded. So, this is really their chance to recapture some of that audience that may have drifted away. I think this game will be huge even by CoD standards if they manage to hit the right notes.

 

[Toa TAK]

Why would they have a WW2 COD remake when we're getting a WW2 COD game?

The Pacific Theater

 

[AlexFlame116]

Guys stop making me want to watch Saving Private Ryan.

 

[GutsOfThor]

First time in a long while that I'm super hyped for a Call of Duty game! Feels weird lol.

Is the Call of Duty classic that's up on the PS Store or X1 store worth a shit?

 

[Jarrod38]

Guys stop making me want to watch Saving Private Ryan.

Speaking of SPR wonder if we will ever get a 4K version.

Yeah, the real beach is pretty big.

But I think they did a good job.

 

[Cardon]

All of the sudden the hype is starting to get to me. Hoping this looks great tomorrow.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Tomorrow is gonna be good.

Or rather today.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Nine years after Saving Private Ryan, a game just might capture that intensity

Edit: 19

World at War kinda did already

just feels smaller scale.

 

[dreamfall]

Can not wait!

 

[ryan299]

I want a Normandy multiplayer mode. Storm the beaches, though I think Battlefield would be better suited to delivering a mode like that.

 

[TimeEffect]

Did anyone else love WaW SP?

Felt it was quite underrated and overlooked. It even has the full thin available in 4 player (offline) co op


One thing I trust COD to do over Battlefield is the single player

 

[AlexFlame116]

Guys also stop making me want to play World at War! I never played that one because of the stupidest reason ever.

First time in a long while that I'm super hyped for a Call of Duty game! Feels weird lol.

I liked it a lot! It's been a while though so opinions might have changed.

Speaking of SPR wonder if we will ever get a 4K version.

Dang I hope so. I really do.

Pretty sure it was only 2-player coop offline, or 4 online, but yeah, I dug it. Didn't get to play the whole thing, but I was impressed by the atmosphere. That game is a big part of the reason I've been wanting to revisit WWII in current gen.

 

[Lord of Castamere]

You know, I said I'd never buy another Cod at full price again after Ghosts, and I've stuck to that so far. I've rented them, beat the single player, and moved on, but this might pull me back. A good classic SnD, with a good single player. I might do it.

It becomes the grenade parade on Veteran. Just absolutely absurd shit

WaW is pretty good as long as you don't play it on Veteran.

 

[Dreadnought]

Yo that's in-game.

Those planes' landing gear is down when it should be up. This is really bugging me

 

[Freezasaurus]

Pre-order cancelled?

 

[HiiiLife]

Hopefully it tops MoHFrontlines dday.

 

[Piggoro]

Actually you're wrong. Those are Ju-87s (Stuka)

So stop being bugged.

There also weren't any massive bunkers facing the beaches as you see in the movie. But it's a great film.

Allies are using German planes? They look like C4-7s to me

It felt ROUGH coming after Modern Warfare, but it was a good enough campaign.

 

[Piggoro]

Allies are using German planes? They look like C4-7s to me

They look like Stukas to me when I zoom in the image. I think they are used as placeholders on that image/video.
I checked again - definitely not C4-7s. Look at the proportions, height etc.

 

[OdysseusVA]

Odds of Sledgehammer Games taking CoD into a different direction?

 

[SDCowboy]

Odds of Sledgehammer Games taking CoD into a different direction?

For the MP, probably small. The core COD mechanics are still great. It just needed to lose the futuristic jetpack and wall-run BS.

 

[Creaking]

Odds of Sledgehammer Games taking CoD into a different direction?

They are, but not anywhere near as extreme as you're probably expecting.

 

[Mechanized]

Chance of large maps having tanks like WaW? Hmmm

 

[Loxley]

Hopefully it tops MoHFrontlines dday.

Shouldn't be all that difficult, at least from a technical perspective, given how that whole beach-landing sequence in Frontline was very clearly limited by the tech they were working with. At times it looked like 20 soldiers were invading Normandy XD

Whether or not they can beat Michael Giaccino's amazing score for Frontline is another matter.

Heck, just bring back Michael Giacchino's Call of Duty theme! The fact that he did the score for the first game is nuts, and it's crazy that they aren't milking that.

 

[Orthogonal]

This is looking really good. I might buy CoD for the first time ever.

 

[The Last Wizard]

Apologies if this has been answered already, but has there been no mention of a Modern Warfare 2 remake? Looking at the marketing material it doesn't seem to advertise that anywhere.

A combination of WW2 and Modern combat in one package would make this an amazing overall deal.

Expect it in 2019, the 10 year anniversary and its infinity ward's turn again. It writes itself.

I bet they give us Modern Warfare 4. It'll be a return to form and the name alone will hype people up.

I'm saying as the "bonus" game.

I hope we get some pacific theater action in the game as well.

I've been predicting that either them or Raven will do a Modern Warfare 4 at some point (which they should).

Depends on what you mean by different direction.

 

[AlexFlame116]

Wait so the reveal will be tonight right?

 

[BBboy20]

Heck, just bring back Michael Giacchino's Call of Duty theme!Probably one of the most melancholic and moving soundtracks that has been used in the game, but this is only my opinion. I couldn' . . . The fact that he did the score for the first game is nuts, and it's crazy that they aren't milking that.

One of the greatest endings ever.

Spoiler

It makes you get pissed off at the existence of the Cold War within the last 20 seconds

Hell, I'll be more on board if he makes a return.

 

[Rizific]

which dev is doing this one? the one that actually puts an ounce of effort on the pc version?

 

[TheSinkingKnight]

Sledgehammer.

 

[Deckard Chapel]

Guys stop making me want to watch Saving Private Ryan.

You should anyway! It's by far my favorite movie

First time in a long while that I'm super hyped for a Call of Duty game! Feels weird lol.

Same here.

The last time I was hyped for a Call of Duty was Call of Duty 2.

Speaking of SPR wonder if we will ever get a 4K version.

We will and I hope they include a modern retrospective with Spielberg and all of the main actors.

Hopefully it tops MoHFrontlines dday.

The bar/gold-standard thus far is Medal Of Honor: Allied Assault's Omaha Beach mission.

I can't wait to see how incredibly high Sledgehammer Games sets the bar for that mission!

 

[BBboy20]

Sledgehammer.

Did Advance have dedicated servers, server browser, and balanced for lean?

 

[OdysseusVA]

Depends on what you mean by different direction.

Not... CoD lol

Wait so the reveal will be tonight right?

Wednesday

 

[DeaDPo0L84]

My favorite CoD was 2, really cant wait to see what a current gen version WW2 can be. Will be the first CoD I buy since the first MW. Got tired of the sci-fi wall running jetpack CoD recently. CoD was founded upon and known for these types of games.

 

[Merchandise]

Don't care unless ZAMBIES

Been playing BOII Zombies this week and it's just so great.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

I rather have a good MP mode than zombies.

COD multiplayer has been shit for years now... way too fast, terrible map design, awful killstreaks etc.

Bring back Extinction or Spec Ops for the love of God.
