Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare: E3 Gameplay is out - COD Thread
« on: February 09, 2014, 10:14:34 PM »
June 9th, E3 Gameplay.
Click here to watch it.
I don't know, I don't like futuristic settings. I may make an exception for this game only to try it out. The game apparently will be set in 2054, Almost 30 years after Black Ops 2. The first level si set in South Korea, and we can clearly see the Exoskeleton suits in action, also not a single gun is recognizable, so they're very likely all made up.
Again, just like the other threads, discuss about it here.

Original post

The Forum's Call of Duty Thread.
We can discuss about the series in general in this thread as well. It originally started just to spread the news above, but just so we can have a thread about it alive around here, I decided just to make an all around thread.
You can also post your milestones at this thread, like your best killstreak, or maybe your best class for one of the games. These are my personal best results:

Call Of Duty 4: Best Killstreak: 18. Map: Crossfire. Gamemode: Domination. Where: PC.
What can I say. 16v16 Domination on Crossfire. Camp a little, get the Airstrike and Bam, you'll kill atleast 3 people on that. After that, you unlock the Apache, and since it was damn overpowered back then, it was basically a bunch of free kills until it goes away. That's how I somehow managed to get that high of a Killstreak.

World At War: Best Killstreak: 17. Map: Makin. Gamemode: Team DeathMatch. Where: Wii.
I have no idea how I got it. I really don't. I sucked arse at the game back when I got it. I guess it was the combination of the placebo effect the M1 Garand gave me (I trusted the stat bars back then, according to them, the M1 was the most powerful gun in the history of mankind) and maybe I was playing with people that were even worse than me. Either way, it happened. It was my best killstreak until the one above.

Modern Warfare 2: Best Killstreak: 9. Map: Highrise. Gamemode: Team DeathMatch. Where: PC
Never really invested that much time into MW2's multiplayer. I only played a bit of the Xbox 360 Multiplayer and only a few couple of months on the PC. I was using the highly aggressive set (I think it was UAV, Harrier and AC130, I was using the UAV because I suck with the Predator Missile) and I guarantee you if I was playing it in the console and actually invested some decent time into it I could potentially build my killstreak up to a Nuke. (25 kills)

Black Ops: Best Killstreak: 13. Map: Don't Remember. Gamemode: Team DeathMatch. Where: Xbox360.
Now that I actually paid attention to the games I played, I actually realised that I'm just better at this game than the other CODs, and I constantly get high killstreak in this one. Yeah sure, I still need some luck to be matched against numbnuts, but I can still do well even against Ghost-abusing 15th prestigers with their Golden suppressed Galil.

Modern Warfare 3: Best Killstreak: 17 Map: Seatown. Gamemode: Infected. Where: Xbox360
Want to know how to get a high KD ratio on this game? Plain and simple, play Infected and stay alive. Not only that, but your WL will get ridiculously high as well, because you pretty much always win in this gamemode, so horray!

Black ops 2: Best Killstreak: 14. Map: I got this killstreak on a bunch of different matches. Gamemode: Team Deathmatch. Where: Xbox360
Frankly, even if I don't show it, this is probably my favourite COD. Nowadays, since most players either quitted or migrated to BF4/Ghosts, there aren't many people playign BO2, which is a blessing and a curse: Not too many people mean that you can more consistently get a good connection, since you're far less likely to run against someone in the middle of nowhere/with Drophack, but the curse is that if you have DLC on, you'll likely keep running into the same people over and over again. But yeah, nowadays, Black Ops 2 is pretty much the COD to go, since Ghosts, well...

Ghosts: Best Killstreak: 7. Map: I don't know, they're all crap anyway. Gamemode: Team DeathMatch. Where: Xbox360
...is garbage. Dammit Infinity Ward, I used to like you more than Treyarch now you do THIS to me? If you are one of those people who always wanted COD to disappear of the mainstream and slowly wither away until the creators got bankrupt for whatever reason, then Congratulations, your wish has been granted and is now being executed, because NO ONE LIKES THIS GAME. NO ONE. It's an ugly, unfinished, unbalanced, DLC riddled, boring greyscale MESS of an FPS. The only reason I touched this game after I first wrote this thread is because my friends persuaded me to play this again.

Unlike a good bit of the community, I actualy really enjoyed MW3, which was the first game of the series that Sledgehammer actively worked and were credited on.
Didn't you read the entire post?

Well, then I don't expect hitting the dead horse with a Sledgehammer to save this franchise.

They might do better with their franchise if they waited for more then a year to release a new game.

Right now the series is up there with Madden for "Games everyone mocks for frequency of release and for idiocy of the fanbase".
Why is it that every CoD game since Modern Warfare still looks like Modern Warfare?

They should just do what they did with MW1 and enable modding, custom maps, dedicated servers, etc, etc.
Their reputation is worth more than moar bux at this point imo.

Drift0r did touch the possibility that Sledgehammer could end up just remaking CoD 4 or MW2, just to play it safe.
But if they DO end up remaking COD4, they BETTER get Craig Fairbass to do Gaz/SAS Announcer's voice again. If they get any other person, even if it sounds extremely similar to him, I'll automatically write of the campaign as shite, HMPH! You can tell how much of a big Gaz fanboy I am by how my avatar is a picture of him.

EDIT: This is why every CoD since CoD4 all look alike. An issue tackled by another one of my favourite youtubers, Raging Amish.

MW2 was my favorite out of all of them since
- It still had Stopping Power
- I feel its arsenal of weapons was fairly balanced within their categories and picking your gun was more a matter of preference than choosing it because it was broken as hell and everyone else was using it

arsenal of weapons was fairly balanced
MW2
Someone forgot about the ACR with M203, RPG AS A SECONDARY, SCAVENGER, STOPPING POWER AND LAST STAND AS PERKS, AND PAINKILLER AS A DEATHSTREAK.
Spam explosives, use your Recoiless 3-4HK Laser to kill people that are too far away.
Don't get me Wrong, the few months I played MW2 online were pretty goddamn fun, but... just don't even joke about it being balanced. AND YES, I DO MISS STOPPING POWER AS WELL, WHO THE BLOODY HELL DOESN'T. Tough really, they shouldn't have made this perk a thing again in Ghosts the way it is. SP was balanced because all the weapons killed fairly slow without it. But ever since BLOPS, Where SP was removed, every weapon has it by default, and the fact that in Ghosts you can add it on top of that kind of boggles my mind.

There's (I believe) an MW2 mod somewhere floating around where it disabled one man army bullshit, and all the other stuff disabled, so it was basically MW1 all over again.

IMO if MW2 didn't have so much bullshit it would trump MW1.

screw the acr, all you need is the tube, danger close, and oma
I dunno, I still feel that you could get away using other guns and do perfectly well with them. Hell I frequently got away with the stupidest setups like Akimbo Vectors and a riot shield or the M21 ACOG with Scavenger and Cold-blooded. My most retarded build is actually the WA2000 ACOG and heartbeat sensor with SP.

There were a lot of things wrong with the game (hello sitrep pro, commando pro), but you could get a lot of mileage out of the MP by doing stupid shit and getting away with it, and that's probably why it's my favorite out of all of the ones I've played.

As far as I can tell, SP did nothing on the WA. (As long as it's unsilenced. if it is silenced then it does make a difference.) So SP was a waste of a Perk Slot. And yeah, if you want to try out a weird setup, MW2 is the COD to go.
There's (I believe) an MW2 mod somewhere floating around where it disabled one man army bullshit, and all the other stuff disabled, so it was basically MW1 all over again.
IMO if MW2 didn't have so much bullshit it would trump MW1. 
I also believe that. MW2 was actually pretty innovative for the series, and it would indeed be the best one if it wasn't for the balance.
But then again, BLOPS could also be the best one if it wasn't for the fact that the weapons were all clones of each other statwise. (And if the Sniper Rifles weren't dead weight)

I updated the Topic. I rearranged some stuff in the OP and made it more clear that we can also discuss about COD in general around here.
If you feel like it, you can also post your class here, kind of like this, if you want to:
Modern Warfare 3
M4A1
Extended Magazines, Suppressor
Desert Eagle
Akimbo

Sleight of Hand, Quickdraw And Stalker
Specialist Strike Package: Scavenger, Blast Shield, Hardline

Here, because this topic is still relevant, I will bump and rename this thread. Read the new OP if you want more details but basically, Sledgehammer gave us a nice little date for us to look forward to the next trailer and get excited about, this Sunday, 4th of May. Or not, because frankly after Ghosts I'm not expecting anything from this series. Still, you have to give Infinity Ward credit, they somehow managed to disapoint me on a game I had zero expectations at all.

Good news, guys, the new CoDfish is just another shooty game that basically only panders to Americans who enjoy shooydudes and grandiose plots that repeat the same words we like (muh democracy, muh freedoms) over and over while we go do more shootydudes in an incredibly linear fashion.

Also fun exercise, go count how many times the trailer features both orange and blue.
It might be awhile before you're back so I'll wait.

Yup, that's pretty much every campaign made by an american studio ever. Are you even surprised?  :V
Anyway, I just hope that the campaign ATLEAST is fun. ATLEAST THAT.

Well, I will again bump my thread here for everyone to see the news. if nobody ends ups caring again, I will stop.
And to be honest, I can see why, gameplay is out and it is frankly underwhelming.
It... looks nice? I think I can atleast say that.
