Yes it’s early but some of the original Infinity Ward developers who worked on MW1 and MW2 are coming back to the studio to work on. Next years Call of Duty

Looking like Modern Warfare 4 will finally be coming next year. I expect we will see MW2 remastered as a pre-order bonus.

I cant see how or why they would go with MW4. That story ended. I'd find it more likely of Activision to publish another Advanced Warfare or Ghosts II and use the remaster as the primary selling point for whatever risky title they come up with in 2019.

I think its safe to say we're looking at a MW2 remaster anyway. Rumours of of being SP only i cant accept. Thats a straight no sale.

Heres every title made BC. MW2, the most requested title, being denied.

I think there might some legal issues with the lads from the original IW that is stopping BC or a remastered MW2. I still think it will be MW4 as they have rehired a lot of the original IW development team. I know the story is done but who says they are going to include a single player campaign. They might give us MW2 campaign as a pre order bonus and Multiplayer/Battle Royal MW4 as the main game.

IW, at least they seem to know that some of us want a campaign!

JaMarcus · 10-07-2018 4:00pm

Could probably post this in any thread, but it's sad what has happened to the COD series.

I remember going to midnight launches for this game, and this forum was insanely busy. I had some fantastic memories playing this series.

What do people think has been the main downfall - is it the "pay to win" content taking over? Poor gimmicks like the exo-skeleton and "jumping"? Poor maps design?

Potential-Monke · 11-07-2018 12:56pm

I don't get the hate for IW and AW. I absolutely loved those 2 games, more than the BlOps series, and I believe i'm in the minority in that regard. I think moving to exo's with advanced movement was a natural progression, and going back to WW2 was a bad move imo. The problem with the CoD series is not the games, its the fans. They don't know what they want. The series moves from modern to near future and people lost it. They went back to WW2 and it feels stale. IW are going to try and revive it by bringing back the awesomeness of MW, and I hope they can do it. MW2 is still my favourite in the series, and the crap they're pulling with BlOps 4 might hurt them bad.

But i've faith in IW, they only released 1 crap game so far (Ghosts). I've faith they will do MW4 justice. And I've no doubt Activision don't want any more modern/old era games, as the customisation is not as easy to do so less money.

I love them all! Even Ghosts actually if you go back and play Ghosts you will find it's not as bad as you remember, fantastic hit detection and most of the dlc maps were better then the maps it shipped with.
I had no issue with AW Blops and IW I just adapted to the advanced movement.
I had no issue going back to boots on the ground with WWII but I am not looking forward to Blops 4 it looks a message of a game. I think next year's COD will give us the modern shooter we all want so I look forward to that.

Snake Plisken · 26-11-2018 3:05pm

Looking good for MW4 with map designer Geoffrey Smith who designed the maps for MW1 and MW2 back as lead designer and Alexander Roycewiz who designed Terminal and highrise also back working for Infinity Ward according to this Reddit post.

Potential-Monke · 27-11-2018 2:55pm

Going from the success of BlOps 4, I didn't think there would be a campaign, but the hiring of a narrative scripter/writer is interesting. Maybe they'll do the usual MP, zombies and campaign and leave the Battle Royale to BlOps 4, as BlOps have a history of supporting a game long after it's been 'replaced'. Personally, I hope they drop zombies and go back to the Special Ops MW introduced. Way more fun imo.

I love zombies but I've really not liked other devs getting into doing it, it's tiring at this rate. I'd far rather Spec Ops coming back. I miss that mode so much.

iLikeWaffles · 02-12-2018 7:59pm

Think it is the time for a present day shooter again. Had a few games of MW3 last week really enjoyable. Hope it is MW4 they can always do a new story for 2019. It's not like the majority of players buy FPS games for the single player story alone.

I used to be very into zombies but at this stage it is same old so I skipped BO4. But it would be amazing for Treyarch to Remaster WaW somewhere down the line, next gen possibly! With the old zombies experience taking foot and not what it evolved into.

Potential-Monke · 04-12-2018 4:57pm

Yeah, modern is the most likely next jaunt for CoD, but I think it will take a lot of effort to make a modern shooter that doesn't feel stale. That's the issue I had with WWII, I felt like I had already played it. Even though BlOps 4 is similar to previous entries, it still feels fresh, I reckon that's down to the Specialists and their double specials. Will be interesting to see what IW do with this one. Again, hope they get rid of Zombies and bring back Spec Ops.

Snake Plisken · 28-02-2019 11:40am

MWR is being giving free to PlayStation plus subscribers in March that looks like a fairly definite marketing strategy that we are getting MW4 next! They gave Black Op 3 away free last yeara few months before Black Ops 4 came out. Some say they may release MW2 Remastered in the summer.

Snake Plisken · 17-03-2019 7:28pm

If this is true it looks like they are going to give us all we want. No specialists, MW2 & MW3 maps and weapons. Co-Op Mode, no zombies no battle Royale mode. This is from Matt Harris who was spot on about Blops4.

Thank the lord if that turns out to be true though I won't try to hold my breath knowing Activision like season pass or microtransactions.

Potential-Monke · 30-03-2019 2:58pm

Playing MWR for the last week, and it doesn't appear to be a quick scope haven anymore. Getting some really enjoyable games, and constantly forgetting I can't slide (think BO1 was the first to introduce diving, then sliding came afterwards?). It took a while to get back into the swing of things, but it's really enjoyable. I think they'll keep the scorestreak system the way it currently is, where you have multiple choices and you pick whichever ones you want, as the amount of UAVs in MWR is crazy!

But, really looking forward to MW4 now. I think it will be extremely popular, and I am excite.

Snake Plisken · 24-05-2019 6:26pm

So it's a soft reboot of the Modern Warfare series and it's called Call of Duty Modern Warfare! Now that's confusing

https://twitter.com/charlieINTEL/status/1131929033208487938?s=19

Potential-Monke · 24-05-2019 9:01pm

They didn't specify it was a reboot though, just that it'll be called Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Could be a continuation, could be a reboot, could be a remake, could be just the same as Medal of Honor and other games have done in the past. Either way, it's Modern fricken Warfare!!!

Snake Plisken · 25-05-2019 11:43am

Hmmm, that does sound interesting. 'A lot is changing' could be anything. I'd love a free season pass type model and keep all the MT's to cosmetic items. They'll still make a killing with it if it's good enough, and I trust IW to do something good with this.

I just got the feeling that this years MW will take place concurrent to the original trilogy, and you'll play as a different character doing different things during the same time. Only a thought though, hopefully something will be shown tomorrow!

So 6PM tonight also we should see youtubers like Xclusive Ace Prestige is Key Druft0r and Chaos release gameplay videos as they all had a chance to play the game last week.
Rumours say there will be no paid DLC no PS4 exclusive time dlc micro transactions will work like WWII and IW (you can buy the dlc or earn it from playing) No specialists or mini map. Interesting times

https://twitter.com/RobsStang/status/1133972033967198208?s=19

Potential-Monke · 30-05-2019 3:54pm

It was only a matter of time before games realise that paid DLC in the form of maps will not last in their current form. As much as I dislike the game, Fortnite showed how it's done. I'm even ok with the season passes for €10, if you want the extra stuff a few times a year. As long as the gameplay is on point, which I'm sure it will be, this sounds like a great return to a proper BOTG CoD. Just hope the unlock system is a bit better than the one in BlOps 4, which was never good for the average player who didn't have the time to sink into it to get the better (not even the best) loot.

Interested to see what this extra mode is. I would have loved Specialists back, but happy it's not Zombies at least. Roll on 6pm!

Screw PC keyboard and mouse that would be like cheating.. I am a bit disappointed we didn't get much details about multiplayrer. They have a lot of Naughty Dog developers working on the campaign so that should make it great.

Potential-Monke · 30-05-2019 7:23pm

I really hope you can turn off cross play. While I wouldn't mind it too much with the Xbone, I don't think it's fair on console players to be put against PC players with kb/m. I have yet to play a cross platform game, but that's my biggest worry. Hell, going against Xboners using the Elite controller will be tricky enough (until I get the PS version).

Didn't give away much in that trailer though. Can't say it's exciting me more at this moment.

Snake Plisken · 30-05-2019 7:47pm

Apparently the single player is extremely violent they reckon it will be banned in Germany NZ etc and possibly yet an adults only rating. Brand new engine they've been working on for 5 years. They want the various elements play as one game so you will level up and have weapon progression across Campaign Special Ops and MP. PlayStation still has 7 day exclusivity on content. We might still get MW2 single player campaign as a pre-order bonus. They are playing their cards close to their chest with the trailer but I'm still a 1000% more excited for this then I was for Black Ops4!

Potential-Monke · 30-05-2019 8:06pm

I read that there will be no exclusivity, releasing everything at the same time across all platforms, and no mention of MW2 Remastered. The rumour mill is going to go into overdrive until IW release some facts.

The cross-play will not directly matchmake players from different consoles. You can party up with players from different consoles and join a lobby. It's the same system as Fortnite.

From the Wiki page:

Wiki wrote:

'The game will feature tactical-based moral choices whereupon the player is evaluated and assigned a score at the end of each level; players will have to quickly ascertain whether NPCs are a threat or not, such as coming across a civilian who is believed to be going for a gun before grabbing her baby. This collateral damage score, referred to as a threat assessment, is based on how many civilians the player injures or kills and ranges from rank A to F – rewards are introduced to those who score higher.[5] Dialogue will differ depending on the choices the player makes in the game.[6]

Tactical decisions involve using a sniper rifle in a large environment to approach objectives in a non-linear order, and shooting out lights in favor of using night-vision goggles during breaching and clearing.[5]

Modern Warfare will be the first game in the series since 2013's Call of Duty: Ghosts not to feature a Zombies mode,[7] instead featuring the co-op Spec Ops mode present in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.[8] The Spec Ops mode shares its narrative with both the campaign and multiplayer.[9]'

Sounds interesting, especially the part where you may accidentally kill a civilian believing them to be a threat, or not kill an actual threat. And delighted, if true, that Spec Ops is coming back. Screw Zombies!

Potential-Monke · 17-07-2019 6:19pm

Not going to post the links, but serial leaker TheGamingRevolution (@TheGamingRevoYT), who has been on point in nearly all other CoD leaks (and his most recent post is a list of CoD things he leaked which were correct) has some interesting leaks out there. To name but a few, and i'm spoilering in case anyone doesn't want to know (no story leaks):

* Single player, multiplayer, battle royale, co-op, spec ops
* Spec ops will be like a BR game (parachute in,
* Scrapyard will return in its original form, all other maps changed somewhat, including Shipment
* All the remakes are intended for the BR mode
* 20 maps and 50 weapons on launch, not including 'big' maps
* "The crossbow is going to be a DLC weapon & Tessa Thompson will be added to the game after launch." (Valkyrie from Thor: Ragnarok)
* Lots of weapon customisation
* For quickscope, Marksman rifles are better than Sniper
* Killstreaks, scorestreaks and specialist streaks
* Gunsmith in game and edit attachments in game
* Campaign sets up sequel(s) perfectly
* Returning MW character throughout you won't recognise until the end
* Nuke returns
* Killing an armored minigun guy allows you to pick up and use the minigun until you drop it
* No 'Hollywood' moments

There's more in there, but he tweets more than an angsty teenager (in fairness, he looks like he could fit in that group).

Multiplayer reveal today at 6pm GMT, including a reveal of the different versions and prices.

Speaking of, they have announced the 'Dark Edition', which comes with an updated version of the Night Vision goggles from MW2. They look like Sam Fishers:

MP Reveal Trailer:

I only caught a small bit of the live reveal, but what I did get was 30-60 attachments per weapon, all unlocked just by using the weapons, weapons have perks, and as yer man said, 'Your weapon is your character in MP'. You can turn an AK-47 into an AK-74U by changing the barrel length and calibre, or turn it into an RPD by lengthening the barrell and increasing the calibre. Sounds good!

I was onto gamestop about the dark edition and they told me it was only available for pre-order online and is sold out. Didnt think it would sell out that quick. I replied to them seeing if they expected to get more copies available between now and launch
