Of course it was a joke, the fish don't move in the actual game.

[Tadale]

What kind of showing has COD had at this E3 anyways?

 

[Akainu]

What is this from?

 

[PJV3]

It's ok. Your dog is a legend already.

Damn right, it can take out whole platoons.

 

[Rojo]

Yea i doubt that 20 min presentation could have easily edited that out, but they didnt. They must be proud of dem guppies.

 

[tsumineko]

Well I mean really, with the amount of high quality jokes being told during that entire press conference it's no surprise something like that wouldn't be picked up.

 

[Kid Ska]

It wasnt a joke you mofo. Why are you treating us like 8 year olds jesus. Fuck IW.

Because that's the age of most of their fanbase.

 

[Tummi Gummi]

Remind me why he's talking about Mario 64?

[OnPoint]

Preorder cancelled.

 

[double jump]

[Dance Inferno]

So is your engine.

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn.

 

[Raxus]

It's ok. Your dog is a legend already.

*ruff rawwwwrwwwr*

 

[Cyborg]

[GuitarAtomik]

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if that guy said it jokingly during the interview and the marketing people who cut the trailer and have no clue about game development tech took it at face value.

 

[hteng]

back pedaling like a fucking pro

 

[Hari Seldon]

IW: "We pissed away an entire generation worth of awesome profits!"
Crowd: "...."
IW: "We were just joking!"

 

[chickdigger802]

jokes are fine... but if this guy didn't ask, I doubt they would have ever been open about that.

Still don't think it was an actual joke, and I'm pretty sure this dev just hurt the feelings of some naive marketing folks T.T

 

[djshauny]

Damage controlling lol.

 

[Joni]

So you can't do fish AI? FAIL OF DUTY!

The next generation of fish AI.

[mclem]

This is forgivable if and only if it turns out that this is a parody Call Of Duty. Bonus points if you actually go the extra mile and secure the Hot Shots license.

 

[zma1013]

Of course it was a joke, the fish don't move in the actual game.

Oh they move alright, but they only move in a straight line.

 

[Doomshine]

I don't think it qualifies as a joke if you have to point it out days later.

 

[mclem]

Oh they move alright, but they only move in a straight line.

They are, in fact, hitscan fish.

 

[WrenchNinja]

lololololol i trol u

Shut up IW.

 

[Åesop]

Remind me why he's talking about Mario 64?

As many people stated, Mario 64 already had a better fish AI

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

So is your engine.

Danm lol

 

[sixteen-bit]

You were laughing WITH us the whole time! TRICKED U!

 

[Corronchilejano]

The next generation of fish AI.

That's hilarious.

And I do believe marketing was the one that slipped. No way a dev would be so oblivious.

 

[aganu]

[jmdajr]

So is your engine.

Most of the budget must be all marketing. Can't see dev cost being that high.

 

[Perkel]

So last gen.

Future is all about next gen wolfs !

The Witcher 3 wolf:

 

[Goldenmoney]

Infinity Ward: "We were joking about fish, but playing as a dog is revolutionary right guys?"

Me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-vzGPCvq28#t=2m44s

 

[Raxus]

My take away from the CoD event. They have advanced fish AI, Dog, and Oscar Worthy writing. These will bite them in the ass if they haven't already.

So last gen.

Future is all about next gen wolfs !

The Witcher 3 wolf:

Gawd damn.

 

[Spongebob]

I'm sure it was.

 

[daniels]

Well it worked I laugh at you guys.

 

[Broken Joystick]

We're laughing at you IW, not with you.

 

[Alpende]

So funny guise!

Now please stop talking about it.

 

[Deadly Monk]

what is sarcasm

I was just kidding, obviously. Duh.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I don't believe you.

 

[Deleted member 20415]

Whether it was a joke or wasn't... everyone needs to stand down a bit.

It's small details folks... nothing to get all pissed off by.

 

[Militant17]

It probably is a joke for them now that the founders have left.

I mean really where would you rather be: at a game factory churning out sequels to a game past its prime or at Respawn working on new IPs?

Lets not get carried away. The guys at respawn would gladly still be there churning out COD sequels if they hadn't had that big blow up with activision. They're all about money, why do you think they were money hatted by MS and made them the safe COD in space with mecs game which is a guaranteed seller.

 

[softie]

I guess the infinitely powerful cloud burst into a shower of shit.

 

[Gintoki313]

This guy...

 

[NorthernAvengeR]

These humorous shenanigans has my canine jaw yapping awkwardly.

 

[smr00]

So last gen.

Future is all about next gen wolfs !

The Witcher 3 wolf:

Last gen wolf looks better then next-gen dog.

Dat next-gen wolf hair. Bet they mo-capped the fur.

 

[Interceptor]

Of course it was a joke. Who needs AI when everything is scripted?

 

[Doran902]

call of duty is the nickelback of gaming

sells millions of copies, sells out arenas around the world

but everybody hates them and isnt a fan

it just doesnt add up imo
