Call of Duty 2014 – ‘Competitive Scene is Very Important to Sledgehammer Games’

MP1st - Our first real peek at Call of Duty 2014 is just around the corner as we approach the month of May, but already we’re learning about the sort of plans studio head Michael Condrey and his team at Sledgehammer Games have in store for their debut entry.

I get killed in Ghosts, spawn, get shot from the side within one picosecond, get killed, spawn again, rinse and repeat. Or if that doesn't happen to me, it happens to my opponents. Nothing competitive about that.

If it's broken, fix it. Hope Sledgehammer games fixes this.

The vast majority of COD gamers like myself have went back to older COD games ghosts is garbage sledge please do not go down the road that IW went. Make a game that all of us love. Most of the time i either play BO2 or MW3 but at this time just loving it on titnfall real fast paced love everything about it. Next cod game get rid of the killstreaks make it gamer to gamer or in my case quickscoping is my thing bolt action vs machine guns and most of the time the sniper comes out on top.

"COD" "Competitive Scene":

I thought the competitive scene was still sticking to older titles in the series?

[DARK WITNESS]

They are because the older titles are more consistent.

[supersonicjerry]

They never stick to the older series in the competitive scene lol it changes every year when the new game comes out.

Didn't Sledgehammer help with MW3? I liked that one (although a little below MW2), the survival mode was cool.

[KyRo]

IIRC they helped with the single player portion of MW3. This will be their first attempt at a fully fledged COD game. I'm not expecting to much but you never know...

I wish it was Treyarch's turn for this years COD tbh

[Milesprowers]

Call of Duty certainly needs a sledgehammer

[JOEgolferG]

CoD is definitely going to lose a lot of the market this year due to Titanfall and IMO the best looking FPS this year Destiny. Don't forget Battlefield is now also right up there with CoD and rightly so, once you look past the buggy broken start it's the most innovative FPS out! Even more than Titanfall that was a little bit over hyped for what it is.

Competitive gaming = Xbox MLG dudebro crowd jacked up on Adderall XD

(my impression at least) XD

[Summons75]

Claims they care but ultimately will not do anything to improve gameplay, fix the balance, or make intelligent designs for competitions.

[jdaboss]

Theyve been working on this for 3 years supposedly so it better bring some new sh!t to the table. This is one stale arsed franchise.

The only COD game u haven't bought is Ghosts. I was bored of the same thing every year but now i can't wait for the new COD!!! I would have prefered a Treyarch entry but i have hopes that Sledgehammer can do a good job.

[DefenderOfDoom2]

I hope SLEDGHAMMER has a "FPS bullet sponge mode". Meaning i would love to see some competitive MP mode where enemies take a lot a bullets to kill each other and your avatar moves a lot faster ! I think that requires more skill !! Kinda like QUAKE and UNREAL games.

[Ripsta7th]

Really really good idea
That's what I like about Halo it takes more shots to die and gives you time to think of a strategy

[Superherox70]

Competitive? Hahaha cod has regenerating health and iron sights and you call that competitive? Gtfo
