Rumor: Call of Duty 2016 to Be Set in the Very Far Future, to Feature Space Combat
- Thread starter bombshell
- Start date
No NO..not just another futuristic one, BUT A FURTHER MORE DISTANCE FUTURISTIC ONE>
Black Ops 2 was already about big drone warfares and sc-fi gadgets that won't happen until many decades

Am I the only who wants a sequel to Advanced Warfare?

I want low gravity, laser based combat. No projectile based weapons unless in space proper where rupturing a suit means death.
Fuck. Take inspiration from Gainax classics for ship design while you're at it.

Disappointed. At this point I'm convinced that they'll never go back to WW2. They kinda shot themselves in the foot by making the scorestreaks and movement crazier every game. They cant go back now, not without losing a significant part of the playerbase and they know that. I just want to play D-Day on a modern engine, is that really too much of a demand?

As long as multiplayer is great (which has been up to this point), it doesn't really matter to me what theme they choose to do.
It'd be nice if they get the future right though. AW and BO3 are set in the future, but they didn't go full on it. Would be nice to finally see power and lasers be the main weapons of choice. Are they finally embracing it?
I'm looking forward to it. Let's if IW learned a few things after their last offering.

I don't really want WW2. That was done to death at this point, and the current COD style of gameplay doesn't suit the gun play of that era anyway. but the Cold War era stuff and onwards seems to be under utilised

Yay another year of BLOPS 3 (I'm ok with this)
Hold on a sec if this turns out to be garbage and AW2 is after that then I'll have to wait till the next Treyach instalment.

DO IT!

That's your opinion and that's fine, but I feel that a lot of people want to play in that era again. It has been a long time. I can agree with you on the bolded part and that's why they'll never go back to WW2. For me all these futuristic shooters (Call of Duty now being a part of that) are done to death at this point though.

So futuristic COD vs historic Battlefield this Fall. I wonder which one will be more appealing.
I won't even consider buying COD so the choice is easy for me.

I think a COD that takes place on different planets would be cool.

A lot of reactionary posts for a game that doesn't even have a trailer yet.
Btw quickscoping wasn't in Black Ops 3 and thank god for that.

Just thinking how much more epic you could make this with today's power. The scope alone would be so much more impressive. God damn.
Fans:
"We really want WWII or something firmly in reality..."
Activision:
"How about fake space guns...and aliens...and DRAGONS"
Fans:
"No we really want--"
Activision:
"SPACE SHIPS."
Fans:
"No what about World War Two-"
Activison:
"MILLION. World War 2,000,000 with alien nazis."
Fans:
"No thanks." *buys it anyways*

No boots on the ground = no buy.
Microtransaction gambling system = no buy.
I'm probably never buying COD again, especially after the shitshow that is BO3.

Sounds cool and I am totally fine with it if I get my WWII CoD after that one...
Added this to the OP.

If this pans out, then it might be the game to get me to come back to CoD. Last one I played was Modern Warfare 2.
Exactly. You fucking get it. I want to go back to the WW days because of how much more impressive it would be. I wish I was a a multibillionaire and could just brute force dream projects with chump change.

Call of duty has become a parody of itself. Just kill this franchise.
Lol, why would anyone kill one of the best selling franchise every single year?!
Stop caring about the game?

Space combat? Ok, now I'm thinking its time to take a break from the franchise.

I can imagine that one of the new started sagas can turn into a story like in the three-body problem books.
