New Call of Duty confirmed for Q4 2013

[Tchuck]

Finally, someone who understands how things are.

 

On CoD, I'd bet my money that they are waiting for the next gen to start updates on their engine, or they are building a new one with a side team while Treyarch and Infinity Ward are busy making the current games. God knows how mad things go when you change engines. I can only imagine where CoD would be at if it was made with the PC in mind.

[SweatyPa1ms]

 

A very prejudiced statement, what makes them dumb f*cks?

 

Maybe I was a little harsh to say "dumb f*cks". Mainly it's young people who get their parents to buy the game and people with alot of disposable income who don't know any better. That's EA's market. Maybe not entirely dumb, but dumb with money.

 

Gee, these kids must be rich to afford a $60 release (American) every year. And I don't see why they have to be dumb to enjoy the game.

 

You also still haven't mentioned how Fifa could be improved by a longer development cycle, there's a reason it's a yearly thing, it's so you get the new players for each season, and people like playing as their favourite players.

 

Call Of Duty doesn't really need a longer development cycle either, they have 2 years per title switching between two titles, and it's good, every year the new game is really active and all the lobbies are full again, and I honestly think if they gave themselves longer, the game would come out worse, Activision is poorly managed, so more time doesn't necessarily equal better product, with other games it does though, IE; Grand Theft Auto.

 

Plus Call Of Duty is pretty damn close to exactly what it's supposed to be, It's a fast-paced gun-on-gun game with plenty of action. That's all it's supposed to be. My only gripes is that there are a few stupid glitches and hit detection is off. I think they need to develop a new engine, they've been f*cking slack with what they have at the moment, the engine has hardly changed from like 5-6 years ago, and that's what causes a lot of the glitches and such.

For someone who plays and buys alot of games, $60 is alot for a game that consistently has little to no improvement from its predecessor. ESPECIALLY year-on-year.

 

Btw, I have mentioned why it would be better with a longer development cycle. Because at the moment apparently the game can't be patched according to our developer friend Tchuck here. Which conveniently gives them the excuse of releasing a game every year and sell it to us saying were getting new features such as transfer/kit updates, technical tweaks, better graphics, "be the referee" etc. When really they could give all that to us in patches. But no, f*ck that, they want you to pay $60 every year for minor improvements. Sometimes they even take good features out! It's a sneaky form of extortion and it's disgusting.

 

I find it funny you go on to say that CoD's development cycle works, then contradict yourself in the next paragraph. You admit it yourself, they are using recycled technology with little to no innovation or variation in each game.

 

As long as people like you keep buying it though. They'll keep making shovelling that sh*t out.

Tchuck - I've come to the conclusion that like EA, you have no concern for the gamer as long as you keep your pride and more importantly, your job intact with these delusions of good business ethics. F**k you and f*ck EA you corporate drone.

Then don't pay $60, keep playing with your old un-updated rosters if you want, people think it is worth the $60 yearly so they buy it.

Sure they could try patch those things into the game, but think about how messy and pointless that is, and also I asked how Fifa's gameplay could improve, not what the developers could do to lose money and make it fairer on the consumer.

 

Say they do update the teams and all that with a patch, what about people who don't want an update? say 25% want it to stay the same, now you have one game with the online community getting divided up. Furthermore EA has to pay for all the licensing for the new players/pay licenses for players in different clubs and change all that mumbo jumbo around, and they aren't going to be making any extra money, they might as well make a new game, people who don't want to pay/ keep the old rosters can keep playing the old Fifa.

 

 

I find it funny you go on to say that CoD's development cycle works, then contradict yourself in the next paragraph.  You admit it yourself, they are using recycled technology with little to no innovation or variation in each game.

 

It's not a total contradiction though so your point kind of wears thin, I think they have just about everything perfect and down pat, but the engine could use updating, I will concede that more time could be useful for that aspect of the game. but it's not necessary, They seem to be getting a new engine for the new COD anyway, but they're still working within the same time limits.

I still fail to see what the problem is with the game having "Little to no innovation." Other than engine issues. I already stated the game is almost perfect in terms of gameplay (as in it perfectly achieves what it is setting out to do), and they change it up enough each year to feel like the same game, but to at the same time be different, which is what everyone who plays COD wants. I was annoyed at how different Black Ops 2 was to Black Ops 1. The gameplay is much faster, maps are very different, guns behave differently, time to kill changed, Killsteaks and the way they work are very different and the whole theme of the game is quite different. But the core fundamentals are the same still, gun-on-gun fast paced gameplay.

And why does it matter to you?

[SweatyPa1ms]

I've already been through this. They shut down their servers so people cant play online for the old games. I want to be able to pay $60 for one game and not buy any others but EA won't let us do that because they want us to buy the next one. Otherwise they couldn't continue this money addiction they have.

 

 

Sure they could try patch those things into the game, but think about how messy and pointless that is and also I asked how Fifa's gameplay could improve, not what the developers could do to lose money and make it fairer on the consumer.

 

What? I should just disregard that as it was utter nonsense. "Messy and pointless"... The words you we're looking for were "fair" and "efficient". How can one not understand that if people are given more time to make a product, the product will be better. The gameplay would be better if the developers were given more time. It's just common sense. Also, who gives a f*ck about how much money they are making. You're f*cking backwards.

I agree that people should have a choice but that's EXACTLY what EA isn't giving us by forcing us to buy the new game if we want transfer updates or even to play online. Like I said, ir's extortion and it's disgusting.

They are feeding you recycled bullsh*t and it matters to me because I think that the biggest games like CoD and FIFA should be the best they can be if they are selling the most copies. The companies such as EA and Activision should be putting some of the vast amounts of money they've earned into researching new technologies and maybe building a new engine instead of using the same one year after year, after year...

I agree shutting down servers isn't really fair unless the game is more than 4 years old, they've shutdown 2010 servers already haven't they?

I don't really see how Fifa's gameplay can be improved by much, I think you answered that point with something off-point, I do get that more time = a better game for a lot of things though, but for these games I don't see it making much of a difference.

 

Also, believe it or not, I DO care how much money a company makes, If I didn't I wouldn't buy ALL of my music from Itunes, and I wouldn't buy all of my films that I own, but I do. The reason I care is because if these companies don't make money, then I have no music/films/games to play.

A very valid point actually, I agree with that, it's not fair to earn so much and do so little to improve the engine, that's a good point.

 

Also sorry about the SweatyMexican thing, haha I couldn't help myself.

[LittleBlueTroll]

I bet the people that moan about the game "being the same" Year in year out, will be the first to moan if the game was drastically overhauled.

 

I have seen people here from back in the COD4 days complaining about people drop shotting, they complained year on year. When the Black Ops "Dolphin dive" was brought in, guess what, they complained how stupid that was.

 

I have seen people moan about MW2 having over powered killstreaks and no spawn protection "I'm sick of getting killed when I've only just spawned" When MW3 came out, and there was spawn protection, the same people moaned that their higher killstreaks weren't getting them enough kills "f*cking spawn protection"

 

I have seen people moan about the fact MW2 had no golden camo for weapons. MW3 brought back gold camo "That's not gold that's piss yellow"

 

I have seen people moan about the original power of the Model 1887 akimbo's "They are to over powered the game isn't balanced at all" When they were patched "Well they're sh*t now they was more fun before"

 

I have seen people moan about the fact that any call of duty game could of had weapon, camo or player card DLC to keep things new, when black ops 2 released DLC for all them things "f*cking multi billion dollar company milking the consumer as always"

 

The point i am making, is that most gamers are like little old women. They moan if it is the same, they moan if its different. They claim they want change, when they get change they decide it was better before. They moan if its not on PC, they moan because "Its a sh*tty PC port"

 

The point im making is some people will never, ever be happy. Call Of Duty, whether you like it or not, sells as many copies every year for a reason, because people like it. No one forces them to buy it, they WANT to. And if you don't want to, then f*ck off and don't buy it. But it drains me coming on here day after day, in the official COD thread and seeing it slated.

I don't know if this is what you meant, but all their games aren't like that. Battlefield doesn't seem so, and the NFS game aren't like that either. I cannot comment on the Sims or some other games. But there is two big franchises under them that aren't setup like that.

 

I do agree that the yearly sports releases are stupid though, and I do not know why anyone would buy that garbage.

 

 

Why is it that in discussions for EA, COD is brought up always, and for discussions about COD, EA is brought up always?

 

Anyho, isn't there two topics for this game? Or is this not related to "Ghosts"?

[SweatyPa1ms]

tms junk - I understand that people are always going to find something to complain about and you cant make everyone happy but it's still no excuse for rushing out this bullsh*t year after year. If they brought out a game of better quality then there wouldn't be a need for a game every year. I can't believe I'm having to explain this over and over. It's pretty simple.

 

corvettelover - No, they don't do it with all their games but they still do it with their sports games and that's what were talking about.

But as we have yet to see any form of gameplay or in game content, and you have certainly not played it, you cannot comment on the quality of the game.

I can comment on every other game they've brought out though and how they sell them and that's exactly what I'm doing.

As you state every year is the same recycled sh*t, you believe the Treyarch COD's have the same feel as the Infinity Ward COD'S?

[SweatyPa1ms]

Dude, I'm not getting into a CoD comparison debate. I don't really care about the franchise as long as they keep going the way they are. I've said all I needed to say on this subject.

 

-----

 

I recommend changing this topics name title to "EA/Activision's Business Practices" seeing as there is another CoD: Ghosts thread.

[Cult Of Personality]

Sweaty: I don't think every games company suits the style of having big gaps inbetween development of a game sequel (like R* or Valve). It's like saying every business should have a niche marketing approach because I quite like the way that business is run and it's proved to be successful, even though the mass marketing approach is still proving to be effective. I won't get too off topic with the examples. I believe EA has realised that they can't keep the attention of there target audience playing one single game (especially FIFA) for 4 years, and have to hide behind the illusion of a new release with "new features" to gain new interest.. You have to realise that the licensing agreements they have make them obliged to release a game every year (so the licenses of the teams can reap the rewards annually). EA have to play to their strengths and the licensing they have makes them top competitors such as Pro Evo.

 

I'm no games developer but I can image it would be pretty hard for them to patch the game for 4 years. The kits and what not could probably be easy, but even then that's just an assumption. It's the changes such as adding a real face to a player that can't be added with a patch due to the process of adding it. It's a whole different ball game adding a new face or free kick system into a game that has already been released. One change might not even be possible due to space limitations (especially nearing the end of current gen. consoles). It's as if to say why didn't R* add new vehicles or building to GTA IV with a patch (not counting DLC as that defeats the purpose of the current topic). I'm probably assuming it just can't be done.

 

I do agree with a lot of your points, and would probably agree with them all if I just took a customer view point as opposed to a business one too. I'm also just doing this as it's mildly entertaining and I'm bored.

[email protected] was unique and so was black ops. Black ops II however is basically the treyarch version of MW3. It's the same over caisualzed bullsh*t and no, the minor changes don't change that. No offense to anyone who enjoys it, but it's the truth.

 

And that's the problem, it wont change. I can guarantee you without having seen or played the game it will be the same overly casualized garbage. That's the formula that sells their games and they wont be doing a 180° anytime soon.

[KilnerLUFC]

After seeing some big discussions on the next Call Of Duty game and what has to be changed etc. Here are some great news by CVG.

 

"The game, expected to be titled 'Call of Duty: Ghosts', thanks in part to an earlier Tesco leak, will be "powerd by a new next-generation Call of Duty engine", according to a new listing which cropped up this weekend (pictured right, via AllGamesBeta).

The now-removed product description read:

 

"The franchise that has defined a generation of gaming is set to raise the bar once again with the all-new Call of Duty: Ghosts. Published by Activision and developed by Infinity Ward, the studio that created the original Call of Duty and the seminal Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series, Call of Duty: Ghosts ushers in the next generation of the franchise, delivering a riveting all-new gameplay experience built on an entirely new story, setting and cast, all powered by a new next-generation Call of Duty engine."

 

Activision is yet to confirm platforms for the new game, but the series' typical annual November releases would align this year's game with the launch on Sony and Microsoft's next generation consoles, both of which are expected to go on sale before Christmas.

 

Earlier last week, the retail giant posted listings for Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the unannounced but previously rumoured Call of Duty: Ghosts, complete with box art that appeared to be genuine"

 

...Like finally? Hah. I'm expecting the announcement by this week I presume.

Wasn't MW3 also hyped up to be upping the graphics engine and giving the series a massive overhaul?! In a way though, I actually have a little optimism for this new title, since it doesn't seem to be related to the MW or BO series, just a new series/stand-alone entirely, something that we have all been crying out for for some time now in terms of needing an overhaul for the CoD franchise. Thing is, you'll always get those who will complain about the CoD franchise and how it's the same sh*t every time, so why are we seeing this same debate for a title that seems to be aiming to be a brand new branch?

I agree WaW and Black ops were very unique games, with unique maps and weapons. The weapons had their own good feel. Black ops 2 isn't like this. Instead, treyarch are constantly messing around with the balance of the weapons. Even the maps are like...meh. The DLC maps are okay.

All we can do is wait it out until the info is released. Mostly everyone is going to buy it anyway. Even half of the haters buy it. Probably why so many people whine. All of their friends play it so they have to play it to be a social gamer. Or because it takes away from their favorite games community base. Whatever. You'll buy it anyway, so quit your bitching ahead of time.

 

Bring on leaked footage already.

[tuareg]

@Bobbin100= Exactly. I played [email protected] after i played CoD4 and MW2 and i had the most fun online with [email protected] It was a more difficult version of CoD4 in my eyes.

 

I pretty much bought every CoD on release day (inb4 pleb), but i decided to wait a month or two before getting BOII and true enough the same complaints were made about the game regardless of the marketing promises that they made up, so i managed to dodge that bullet (i got the chance to play it later though).

 

I really don't understand why they don't let IW and treyarch go two completely seperate ways however. IW could release the easy mode games and treyarch could release the no killstreak, no holding your hand around every corner, CoD/CS hybrid type of online experience and it would work so well. Everyone would be happy. I know i'd be happy. Just release 40 -50 maps for both games and people could play it forever.

I've enjoyed the hell out of BOII.

 

I enjoy every CoD game. I've been pissing a lot of people off lately too calling me a modder, lag switcher, aim botter, etc. This is the main problem in CoD community. Not accepting someone is better than you and reporting them for such things. I'm sure I've been reported a dozen or so times. And it's been happening an awful lot more when I use the Ballista with iron sights.

 

And that is one thing that the developers can't fix. I just laugh and slaughter on.

that's the funniest thing about COD, the series itself is pretty middle of the road when it comes down to playing it, the biggest issue for me can be the players...you know the type, the 'l33t' the 'urb4nsnipez' the 'oXnamehereXo' so on and so forth. I was playing with a G36c on Pipeline and (bear in mind I'm f*cking terrible at COD) I managed to get something like a 30 killstreak, pure luck, I must of been playing all day and it became muscle memory to me, point shoot reload. game ends and whaddya know?! I get messages calling me a hacker, cheater and the like. makes me glad I'm damn awful at shooters, if I was any better I'd end up with them messages all the time!

[Mista J]

For the glitches or overpowered perk combos don't bother me, like others say it's the damn community. CoD is really fun IMO but I've stopped playing it because I'd end up with headaches because of the damn kids arguing with their parents because its bedtime or because they want them to stop playing and sometimes muting isn't effective because its a hassle muting every single 8 year old that jumps into the lobby. Even heard some kid call his mom a bitch because she wanted him to turn the game off. I'm glad the Xbox has chat parties because if it didn't I'd probably be dead from my brain melting due to all the damn kids on an M for Mature game.

Some of these people who tell me they're reporting me aren't young. I've had quite a few hate mails from guys that sound 40-50+. One was just two days ago playing HC TDM and I was using the SMR because I tend to find it more fun and challenging to use single or burst fire weaponry. I kept killing this guy and everytime he would say "modder". And after the round he said he's reporting me. A fellow gamer in the lobby asks why do you think he's modding? His response..."oh I know he is".

I was playing with a G36c on Pipeline and (bear in mind I'm f*cking terrible at COD) I managed to get something like a 30 killstreak, pure luck, I must of been playing all day and it became muscle memory to me, point shoot reload. game ends and whaddya know?! I get messages calling me a hacker, cheater and the like. makes me glad I'm damn awful at shooters, if I was any better I'd end up with them messages all the time!

Some of these people who tell me they're reporting me aren't young. I've had quite a few hate mails from guys that sound 40-50+. One was just two days ago playing HC TDM and I was using the SMR because I tend to find it more fun and challenging to use single or burst fire weaponry. I kept killing this guy and everytime he would say "modder". And after the round he said he's reporting me. A fellow gamer in the lobby asks why do you think he's modding? His response..."oh I know he is".

I feel you mate, I've been struggeling with this young children bashing me for years.

 

I'm a hardcore objective player, and usually end up on the top of the leaderboard each round.

This automatically leads people to call me a booster,hacker, modder.

 

I usually just think it's positive, cause it gives me more confidence when beating these noobs over and over again

Most of the time it is entertaining to hear them bitch. And makes me wonder how many people have actually reported me besides the people who tell me so. And I wonder if 3Arch check out all of these reports anyway. It would be a total waste of their time for the most part.

 

These people are so ignorant in their claims. One guy told me I had an aimbot one round, and the next told me I suck now that I turned my aimbot off. But I had a better score the second round. Some people think modding is as simple as a button for anyone to do undetected. And that's just not the case. Modders get banned with the quickness. Do they really think I would rack up 55,000 kills while modding?

 

I usually just laugh it off or shrug it off. But other times I also report them for offensive language. We don't need people like that in CoD. I don't know if reporting their bahavior does anything, but they all deserve some sort of punishment for their harrassing ways. Jackasses.
