Any word on if this will have split screen online multiplayer like BLOPS?

A streamer I was watching last night on PS4 was playing online split screen.

Here's why A&W could be different:


So, to sum up, they were brought in to finish MW3 after disgruntled IW left. They were given less than a year to finish the entire game and make it bug-free.

Reasons why A&W will be pretty much like every other CoD:

Because Call of Duty.

The changes between one iteration of COD and the next are less drastic than changes that bored teenagers have made to PC games in shorter timeframes and released for free--or for that matter, changes you could make yourself in 20 minutes to any Steam Workshop-enabled game for free. The success and failure of each iteration basically depends on it being grossly imbalanced enough for it to still be fun despite everyone being bored as gently caress with the only series that rivals EA Sports games in its lack of innovation.

A SWELL DUDE posted:

Another reason Ghosts was terrible: lovely game modes. No CTF, no Hardpoint (which had been a big hit in the previous installment), no Headquarters, and I don't think there was even Demolition. Blitz looked cool on paper, but it played horribly. Every game turned in to teams trading caps as fast as possible with virtually no defense played.

AW is bringing back CTF and HP, so it's already on the right track. Uplink looks like a ton of fun, and I don't think it will flop like Blitz since the ball mechanic draws the action to a central location at all times. And then Momentum should be solid. It's a formula that works great in TF2. If anything, it's like a more dynamic Domination (which needs to die already).

Blitz had a lot of spawncamping potential, but somebody invariably hosed it up

I dunno why y'all are ashamed of buying these games since they are Fun Games. The only one I've marginally regretted was MW3, but I had too high of hopes because of MW2.

Even Ghosts was fun for its story, even if the MP was boring.

Why is my dumb rear end considering this game. I guess after gamers club unlocked and movers guide i can get it for ~$42 and trade it in in a few weeks and not really be out much.

Only emojis can express my pure, simple stupidity.

Wait hold up people didn't like MW3?



We're all suckers and even though all CODs suck they're still fun and we're big dumb baby idiots that keep feeding into it. Except Ghost of course. That one actually looked good but was actually terrible.


This one actually looks kinda ok though. Queue me as another idiot that will buy it. Not falling for the DLC/season pass this time though!

I hope being on last gen as well won't effect graphics improvement on ps4

I also got a xim since it ruled on Xbox so I'm one of those faggots

I don't even know if I would like MW3 now, but going into it I was so excited because MW2 was my favorite, I took the day off work, etc. Then I played it a few weeks and put it on the shelf, forgetting about it. Just wasn't the same. Probably not fair to MW3, but :shrug:

I figure if it's got $1/hr in it, I'm good. Then again I'm terrible at like all games so being mediocre shooty mans is my goal and I usually achieve that. Except in domination and I seem to do well there for some reason. Probably because camping a fixed objective is less difficult than deathmatch.

This seems like a good time for somebody with archives (hint hint) to go find quality Day -1 Ghosts prediction posts.

In other news I preordered a Bone. GT: InvadeFranceNow returns from the slow death that is the quarterly steam sales

I think its fitting to preorder a new edition xbox one and CoD:AW together, just like you poor sods did with ghosts. I'm going to feel the full crushing weight of disappointment.

I mean it's pretty good odds the game is gonna be trash but I'm feeling pretty positive it's not gonna be trash because of lack of mobility.

I watched his vid about ghosts and he talks about overpowered quickscoping and bad SMGs (neither of which are true) and doesn't mention any of the actual issues with the game at all.

Also he's playing this on 360 and it's the first cod that is really, really meant to be on next gen (or pc). He also bitches about getting pinged on the map for using exo suit abilities and there's literally an exo suit thing that makes that not happen.



e: Also this is the studio that did the old gen versions of the game: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Moon_Studios
