Call of Duty: Ghosts' Mutliplayer Reveal Is The Best PR For Battlefield 4

CCC Says: "So, I just got done watching the Call of Duty: Ghosts multiplayer reveal. Now, I am just going to get this out of the way up front–I am a Battlefield fanboy. And I’m not alone. The Battlefield fanbase grows larger with each installation of the franchise and for good reason–it’s a better game. For you Call of Duty fans out there that are (for some unknown reason) reading this, brace yourselves and get ready to spew forth your retorts. To quote the movie 300, “This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.” This is an exercise in sheer fanboyism, and some, if not all, of my points may make no sense and have no basis in reality. You have been warned."

I see cod losing a good 25% of its fanbase to bf4, and thats alot.

MizTv3929d ago

I saw the vid and was not impressed at all
It looked like a ps3/360 game
Ill be happy with killzone and battlefield

black0o3929d ago

BF4 is a next-gen COD still a cur-gen with a dog!

MWong3929d ago (Edited 3929d ago )

Sadly, did everybody see the GameSpot vid of COD since Modern Warfare? The game looks exactly the same with just slightly better textures and new, but slightly similar game modes.

user74029313929d ago

yeah, i know what you mean, it shouldn't come as a surprise though. anything casual usually is watered down. from games to music to beer ect.

elhebbo163929d ago

wasnt there an article about how BF4 pre-order are ahead of Ghost? Just goes to show that people do get tired of the same s*** every year.

RaptorGTA3929d ago

@elhebbo16

Orginally I think BF4 preorder were above COD...but I think COD is ahead now. We'll have to see how next week pre order sales look.

dcj05243929d ago

Bf4 provides CQC Medium Ranged Combat and Long Ramged Combat.No need for cod.

Pandamobile3929d ago

Pretty much. Back in the day, when it was BF2 vs. COD2, each franchise had their respective strengths and weaknesses.

COD had great close-quarters gameplay with impactful shooting mechanics, but no ranged combat.

BF2 had great ranged and vehicle combat, but weapons felt weak and close-quarters combat was wonky and a bit unintuitive.

Fast forward to 2013 and COD hasn't really changed much. It's still got the same original formula, but hasn't expanded out very much. Meanwhile, BF3's close quarters gameplay and shooting mechanics have increased tenfold, while still providing huge battles with a variety of vehicles.

Battlefield now does Call of Duty better than Call of Duty does, while still providing that epic largescale battles that put the series on the map.

BLAKHOODe3929d ago

I would prefer a new Battlfield: Bad Company game over Call Of Duty and Battlefield.

SchwoererBear3929d ago

I agree, I played the crap out of bad company 2, when BF3 came out it was`so much different and had the the feel that MOH was influencing it. I stopped playing BF3 and went back to BC2 and still play it to this day from time to time.

SnotyTheRocket3928d ago

To each his own. I still play BF3. Awesome game.

thelaughingwiseman3929d ago

I'm still waiting for Bad Company 3... BF3 campaign looked and played a lot like COD. I missed the humor that was in BC2. BF4 seems to be going the same route.

Pandamobile3929d ago

Who gives a rat's ass about the campaign? Battlefield's meat and potatoes are the awesome multiplayer matches.

thelaughingwiseman3929d ago

BC 2 is the reason I fell in love with the series. The campaign was very good, story and combat wise. All their actions made sense.

But BF3 and all the other COD's just feel like jar head games. They are just made to give you a gun and then shoot. I didn't feel the fun I had with BC2 that I did with COD's games or BF3. It felt all gloomy and strict.

Again, this is just the way I feel about the game. I didn't like the detachment I had playing MP

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot780d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250780d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface779d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop779d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno779d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel780d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps780d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge102888780d ago (Edited 780d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33780d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888780d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH779d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.

All Call of Duty Games Ranked from Worst to Best

BLG writes: "Call of Duty has to be the most recognizable franchise on the planet. They didn’t get that way by only making a handful of games.

COD has a long and storied career. Launching as a PC WW2 first-person shooter, Call of Duty has gone through numerous makeovers and been on just about every system. The series has gone through some serious highs and tragic lows. I’ll be looking at each Call of Duty game, the good the bad, and the ugly."

Vanguard better be at the fkn bottom. Can’t believe ppl haven’t eviscerated that game with all its lacking

Minimoth821d ago

Yeah, it's close to the bottom. There are a couple of worse ones. Infinite Warfare definitely deserves its place.

KyRo820d ago

There's a number a lot worse than Vangaurd. It's also a lot better than that car crash Treyarch released before it.

XbladeTeddy820d ago

World at War is my favourite. Didn't know the N-Gage had a Call of Duty.

MadLad820d ago

Same for me.
I was never huge into Call of Duty, but I sunk a lot of time into WaW.
Both the campaign and the multiplayer are on point. Wouldn't mind a remaster.

I quit on CoD for a long while. Though I'm the odd man out that actually really enjoyed the campaign for WWII, being I got it through Humble monthly way back when.

TheLigX820d ago

I really enjoyed the Infinite campaign. Multiplayer... not so much.

Yppupdam820d ago

I agree, The Infinite campaign feels more like it's own thing that they slapped the CoD name on. If it stood on it's own, (sans the CoD name) I think it could have been it's own scifi franchise. And a damn good looking game, to boot. I never bothered to play the multiplayer.

victorMaje820d ago

MW 2019 apart from the desastrous file sizes is way better than AW.

MadLad820d ago

That was one I grabbed for Playstation because it pretty much just came out during the Redbox purge of videogames, and I got it for dirt cheap.

It was great coming home to an update every night, and watching one game eat up almost half my console's memory.

Amplitude820d ago (Edited 820d ago )

Will get disagrees but Infinite Warfare campaign was really good. Decent story, set pieces were amazing and if it didn't have the CoD game on it I'm sure people would have been more into it. Advanced Warfare was alright too. Titanfall 2 was just 1000 times better than both but I enjoyed them for their campaigns. I literally barely gaf about the story I'm in it for the set pieces and 5 hours of being stoned watching cool nonsense happen if I'm in the mood to play a CoD campaign. If I'm looking for a deep plot I'm gonna go somewhere else.
Ghosts was the worst story-wise though lol that cliffhanger ending was so bs.

Also MW 2019 was sick and is one of the best CoD games in yeeeears not sure why it's so low on this dude's list. Campaign was great, multiplayer was great and Warzone was fun for a while. Over it now but shrugs.

Beat the Vanguard campaign too but I can't even remember a single thing about it other than that it felt like it was 45 minutes long. Might be the most forgettable thing I've ever played lol just fully erased from my brain
