Call of Duty Advanced Warfare

[smarteyeball]

oh look - it's another COD game.

Tbh, I don't give a flap what it looks like, when/where it's set blah blah.

All I care about is that is it actually different in the gameplay department for single player? If not - don't care.

COD: Non-Linear - "Real Trajectory" would make me interested.

COD: Same-shit - "Same Gameplay" does not.

All in all, as stated before, I am looking forward to any Shooter Game that comes up because there is a lack of them as of late, regardless of how good or bad of a port it is... more so for the Campaign Gamer like me.

Daniel, even when me and old mate whatshisname helped you put together your QX9650 rig over at Vistaforums all those years ago - you were unsatisfied with FPS games then.

In all these subsequent years, I don't think I've ever heard you say you've enjoyed a FPS single player campaign. Even if you can map a mouse button to move forward.

This latest COD aint going to be anything new either bro.

I still love the original call of duty game. it was the game that at the age of 15 made me want to seriously get into gaming pcs. shame it all had to go modern and loose the epic tank battles!!

And you are right, as we get old we get more picky I guess and we want things as good as they used to be, or how we thought were good. If I am completely honest, while they have not been to my complete liking (way to easy and/or run and gun galore) I have enjoyed them and played them a lot of times... more so because I have come to the conclusion that there is not going to be a tactical shooter anymore

I just wish that, even if they are run and gun, they would make a little effort on the different levels instead of just making the levels with more enemy ai and the god shield so they die harder but you die quicker... I have noticed that at times I am behind cover (a huge rock or wall) and if I don't move quick enough bullets miraculously find me and I die nonetheless

That or my so called teammates are in front of me and the enemy ai does not die even when one of my teammates just unloaded a full clip onto them and I end up dead by that same enemy ai .

All that pisses me off but again, I have become accustomed to it and it no longer bothers me... much

Thank God it's not getting made by Infinity Ward!

Thank God it's not getting made by Infinity Ward!

Hmmm... and I like how IW made them!

Any particular reason why not? not that I care but seeing as there is nothing to talk about... why not, right?

One man army + newb tube + danger close + nuke = FU IW.

Well... aren't they all?

I get them confused because I literally pay zero attention to trailers or news unless is posted here and some people call them CoD?? whereas others call them MW?? so that always confuses me.

To be honest, I started playing MoH before I got CoD (WW2 scenes) but I was already tired of that era and the weaponry so when we got the first MW it was a breath of fresh air... and I was in love with the ergonomics of the weapons, and the run and gun was just part of it because it was expected coming from both MoH and CoD past games.

MoH MW (not Black Ops, Gawd, how terribly bad those games were IMHO) was not as good as CoD MW and not because of the storyline but because of the ergos of the weapons, there was something about it that did not let me enjoy it as much as the MWs from CoD.

Now, what particular mission are you referring to? both storylines left a bad taste in my mouth, more so because of that theme where good guys don't die and I guess I got to involve with the character

That Bosnian mission was in Warfighter... Didn't even get past the cinematic, I was already pissed off.
MOH was generally always more crude in gameplay from COD but the characters (like in Pacific Assault) is what made the game more interesting for me, I felt as if I was actually there. Oh, and the soundtracks kicked ass!

I still don't get how COD titles are confusing, unless you never actually played through them. It goes: COD 1, 2, 3, 4 (which is also the first MW) and after that they dropped the numbering and went forward with World at War, MW2, Black Ops, MW3, BO2, Ghosts. At least those are all the major ones (excluding expansions, handheld titles etc.)

Oh, also:

Well... aren't they all?

*PING*PING*PING*PING*PING*

BINGO :roflmao:

Cod 4 oh how I miss the...

To me COD 4 is one of the Top 5 games in history. If you go by what technology was available to them and not simply looking at the bells and whistles of this generations games, 007 Golden Eye is #1 and a revolutionary game that changed gaming forever. Miss them both.

COD 4 = It will forever the best in multiplayer.

007 Golden Eye = If we are talking about the N64 version... wow... is one of those few games, in my opinion, you'll have fun 100%. It would be great to have a N64

I tried it, but it's not the same experience

As a Campaign Gamer, CoD 4 (or MW1 ) was the most annoying of them all, and not because it was the most run and gun or the hardest or bad storyline. No, on the contrary, it was the best Campaign (or the longest which for a Campaign Gamer there is nothing better than a loooong Campaign) but the annoying part was that in the hardest level, some parts of some missions became just horrible to enjoy and/or play, moving on and passing some choke points was like adding alcohol in a wound, no matter where you went, where you hide, bullets and grenades would find you and you would get dead time and time again... to me that is just poor and lazy ass programming and nothing to do with the character being good or bad.

It kind of reminded me of Ghost:Future Soldier and UBI trying to please and bamboozle people into believing they could make the game tactical by removing the Interactive Camo on the Hardest Level they gave us after a patch (can't remember which) but they forgot to reprogram all of the actions and choke points so you ended up not being able to use the camo and always fighting instead of being able to do Recon or just moving past the choke point w/o being seen if that is what you wanted to do

Gornot, I am one of those guys who plays the game and don't really pay attention to names or soundtracks, matter of fact, I usually have the sound (tracks) very low volume so I can hear the voices and ambient more, sometimes Expansion Packs confuse me but now that we have gotten straight which one is CoD 4 (MW1) than I can comment a little better

Was never able to get around the ergonomics of the game in 007 so after some time I quit playing it... can really comment on it.

 

[Gornot]

007 was ultimate badassery (yes, it's a word)

Also, I wouldn't agree that COD4 had the longest campaign, i'm pretty sure COD2 was MUCH longer... But maybe that's just me because we actually had three separate campaigns xD lol

 

[AstaLaVista]

Perhaps it just felt longer because I died two million nine thousand and fiddy seven hundred times in CoD 4

Yep. The game we really want is just not going to be made unfortunately.

When you're young, you can easily overlook the short comings, but after time goes by, it just becomes a drag.

I've also become accustomed, by like yourself it still does bother me. I'll still play them, but the level of 'fun" just isn't the same any more. You shouldn't be playing a game and thinking "if only they did this, or if only they did that". I really miss those "wow that's cool" moments.

And therein lies the conundrum of the whole thing doesn't it? I gotta say that I have modified my behavior and I don't let those moments bother me so much and I just take what I can from the game... I just figured that if the Greedy Publishers give the Devs a little more time, perhaps they would insert those missing pieces... and here I go again
