Get rid of the movement systems/exo suits and future settings.

WellyUK2972d ago

That's not the problem though. The Dev team and publisher is. The reason cod has not been as good is because the good IW split and CoD has never been as good since then, Treyarch did alright with Blops 3 but even they aren't very good at cod and never have been.

Mister_Info_Tek2972d ago

It is the problem, future games do not have the feel to it like the older ones do. it's call of duty, not jump around and wag your tail duty

WellyUK2972d ago

well they could make a more gritty and realistic looking cod with the packs and the futuristic setting etc... People just see future as colorful for some reason when it can easily be dark and gritty.

iTechHeads2972d ago

Why? Just go play COD4 if don't like the new ones.
BO3 is the best-selling in recent years.

AlphaCentyros2972d ago

just go play COD4? Yeah that's not how it works and you know that. It's like Don Mattrick telling us to buy X360 if we don't like the XBone always-online feature.

I just stopped buying after MW3 and if they returned to WW2 I would probably instantly buy it.

Bobertt2972d ago

I would but the servers don't work anymore. Blackops 3 is ok but i don't get the excitement i got from the older games.

SKullDugger2971d ago

Just because it is the best selling in years does not make it a good COD game.

Liqu1d2971d ago

COD4 is dead and hackers are dancing on it's corpse.

Clown_Syndr0me2971d ago (Edited 2971d ago )

@Bobertt Since when? I played Cod4 the other day. They're not dedicated so work fine?

I agree sir get rid of the exo suits and all this future driven BS...

MRMagoo1232971d ago

imo they should just do a remake of COD 4 MW , I would pick that up in seconds.

News4Noobs-2971d ago

The problem is not only the exo suits.. it is also all the extra bullshit they put now, all those perks, attachments etc. I remember COD4, it was mostly about having skills, gun vs gun. Now it mostly depends on all the BS attatchments you have your weapns and perks you have. Before COD didn't have all that extra stuff mainly for noobs or people who just depend on them.

Bring back COD4 gameplay style, choose your attachment, the 3 perks, your favorite gun. And good luck out there soldier.

Rachel_Alucard2971d ago

Yeah and Juggernaut and Stopping power on every class was totally skillful to use.

we4202971d ago (Edited 2971d ago )

I agree. Tbh though people cried and cried about CoD not being different and now that it is different, people are crying to go back.

It was fine how it was, don't fix what isn't broken

Kizwiz62971d ago

It wasn't fine how it was because players were simply oversaturated with the franchise and its rehash conventions. Our society tends to gear towards new trends, then often revisit the old ones. In gaming, the same thing has happened with platforming titles, as a fair amount of people now feel they're undrepresented for typical FPS or RPG games.

Wait is that really from the game? hahaha I haven't touched COD since Modern Warfare2. I played a few mins of Advanced warfare but I don't count that since it was me fighting not to throw up at the crap gameplay.

CurdledGoblin2972d ago

Black Ops 3 is the CoD that has completely made me stop in my tracks. If you saw my gameplay hours of the seriesfrom the past several releases, it would look like I'm a skier heading downhill as quickly as possible. lol And you nailed it! The gameplay has just become crap.
I'm not taking anything away from those than enjoy it, but I've been playing since the very first CoD release. The "evolution" of the title is just poor. It's generic and boring now.

Shubhendu_Singh2972d ago

Campaign and petition will rise and fall...and it won't matter.

Activision will keep the formula same as long as people/gamers/kids keeps buying them. Simple as that.

OoglyBoogly2972d ago

I'm playing Call of Duty 2 now and having a blast. Games, especially Call of Duty, would do some good kicking it back a little bit.

I wish we'd get another Brother in Arm's...played Hell's Highway earlier and MAN is it a blast!

ZombieKiller2972d ago

I agree whole heartedly with this! Although I'm playing Black Ops 3 for the zombie mode, I've grown to hate the COD series. On top of Activision damaging the brand with Microtransactions and season passes, it's become a rehash, "brand of" a game. All the gritty war-torn scenery has been replaced with golf courses, colorful water slides and non warlike environments. What once was clever banter, is now replaced with lines that make me cringe at the end of every match. I know it's just a game, but games (specifically COD) are supposed to be simulations what is, or what may be. So ask yourself this, is this really what the future is going to be like? Because... Just kill me now.
However, I do think Black Ops 3 is a great game and it has the best zombies experience I have played to date, but the campaign feels disconnected from the other two games (story wise i LOVED the Ops campaigns), the multiplayer feels almost exactly like Black Ops 2 except no boots on the ground (which sucks imo, i miss old school TACTICAL Call of Duty) and seriously screw that lag compensation. Rockin 100/100 FiOS and I can't seem to get a Kill at all sometimes. I miss the days of old where the game mattered more than the money did. Just like a lot of businesses though, they had their run and now are just living off of brand name I feel. My attitude is the problem though as i keep giving them power by buying every year. As much as this itself is the problem and i hate to say, I'm still going to say it: I guess we'll just have to wait till next year to see what Infinity Ward does.
Until then I guess I'm sticking with zombies.

CrimsonWing699h ago

It really did. Like I came out of that with the hype for new games I haven’t felt since… well the better years of E3.

monkey6029h ago

It was without a doubt one of the better showcases in years. There was plenty there that excited me. Something has been lacking in years on all platforms

EasilyTheBest7h ago

It was an amazing showcase I loved everything about it. Can't wait to play some of those games.
What's going on. 4 comments & no negatives yet. Wow, what's going on with N4G.

ThinkThink6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

Show was so good, it made me forget about that blue dragon rumor until the next day. Too many games to process.
