Call of Duty Has a “Major Announcement” Coming Soon

Major news everyone. A rumor has circulated the internet over the past few hours that something big for Call of Duty will be announced tonight at Activision’s event later tonight. That’s right, big Call of Duty news will be announced tonight – but what will it be?

blumatt4741d ago (Edited 4741d ago )

Maybe they'll do the right thing and announce dlc map packs will cost $5 instead of $15. $15 is ridiculous for 5 maps! Or, better yet, maybe they'll put these maps ON THE DISC, instead of making us pay extra for them!!

And if it's a new game, it had better have a new game engine. The graphics are SO dated! I mean, come on. Use all that money you're making, Activision, and get that graphics engine up to date with games like Battlefield BC2 and Killzone 3!

@Trunkz Jr
Yeah, I'm just gonna keep playing CoD4 until the servers go down. And that's only once in awhile. Most of my time is with Battlefield BC2 and Battlefield 3 when it comes out. Also, Killzone 3 gets played a lot.

-Alpha4740d ago (Edited 4740d ago )

If they offer it for $5 you'd have to assume they'd offer only 2 maps.

I honestly don't know what you expect them to charge when they include more maps in a bundle than anyone else on the market. They are not charging for individual maps any differently than anyone else

And how on earth do they put maps on a disc that aren't even fully made yet?

ZombieAssassin4740d ago

I doubt we'll ever see 5 maps for $5, but it is a rip off, I think it should be at the very most $12.50 since they use to charge us $10 for 4 meaning it was $2.50 a map. It is Activision though and one day they will fall from grace and we can all laugh when they realize they should of took chances with more new IP's because they milked all their big ones.

bakasora4740d ago

What, activision going to pull the plug off COD?
Now that's major.

DeadlyFire4740d ago

Better idea blumatt. Give gamers a toolkit = Free DLC maps.

blumatt4740d ago

Agreed! I've love to see that.

Who cares?

After BO which turned out to be BS, I'm never buying another CoD unless they use a complete new engine, I can play the original MW and have just as much fun and save $60+

Battlefield 3 FTW.

kingdavid4741d ago

People say the same crap every year...

After World at War im not buying another COD
After mw2 im not buyin another COD
After black ops Im not buyin another COD

Yet they always seem to end up getting it. Funny that.

AAACE54740d ago

Yeah, I say it too! Also said I hated Black ops, but it kind of grew on me.

It's speculated to be an official announcement confirming Modern Warfare 3

Blacktric4741d ago

Yeah, just like Modern Warfare 2 and Black Ops. And map packs are mini DLC's.

newhumanbreed4741d ago

Don't forget World at War!

HolyOrangeCows4741d ago

Don't get your hopes up. This is really just another unofficial inevitable sequel website. They're armed to the teeth with advertisement space and live off of opinion pieces and vague, baseless rumors like these.

DeadlyFire4740d ago

I am betting its a name change of some sort to Call of Duty series.

Hopefully this entry does something innovative. If not im not buying.

Shackdaddy8364741d ago

It has the exact same engine so I'm guessing it wont. Like usual...

SNEEKZ0NER4740d ago

I didn't know you worked for Infinity Ward or Activision.

Kingdom Come4740d ago

No but this guy does and he announced the game'll be using the same engine as Call of Duty 2...

wwm0nkey4741d ago

umm Rock, paper, shotgun said nowhere that it was MW3, they suggested Call of Duty Online.

Son_Lee4741d ago

I'm no CoD fan really, but if it's Modern Warfare 3, I might bite the bullet. Modern Warfare 2 was my first FPS that I beat, and beat on Veteran, so it means something to me.

Call of Duty Players Disappointed by $80 B.E.A.S.T. Glove Bundle Deal

Recently, players of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone were met with a new bundle featuring the B.E.A.S.T. Glove, inspired by King Kong's armament in the Godzilla x Kong movie. However, the $80 price tag attached to this themed accessory left many Call of Duty fans feeling underwhelmed.

Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash

melons17d ago

Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.

Gridknac17d ago

They call that a crack head! Thats what this is really about, its an addiction. People who dont smoke cigarettes look and laugh at the addicts that spend $8-$10 a pack, but they cant help themselves, they are addicted. That same analogy applies perfectly to the whole MT industry. Only an addict that was not thinking clearly would spend this kind of money on something so frivolous. A round of multiplayer provides the same high a person gets from scratching a lotto ticket, or putting money on a sports bet. MT in general need to really be regulated because you have a generation of kids becoming adults who grew up only knowing the MT era of gaming. Its normal to them and they will in turn teach their kids the same by just being a gaming parent and getting their kids involved with them in gaming. Thats why no matter how ridiculous the headlines keep getting out of the MT industry, it never seems to fade or go away.

X-2315d ago

I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.

Cheech And Chong Are Coming To Call Of Duty Because Everything Must Be Consumed

The famous comedy duo is the latest example of pop culture becoming one big grey blob

Christopher31d ago

Certain to have some sort of reference to their online store for CBD/THC chews, which is advertising heavily online the last month or two.

Sciurus_vulgaris31d ago

The randomness of the multiplayer characters is one of reason I quit playing COD after briefly returning in 2022. We got Space Marines, rappers, tree monsters etc. all in a series called “ Modern Warfare”.

OtterX31d ago (Edited 31d ago )

I think if there was ever a time for a competitor to rise up and take away some of Call of Duty's thunder, the time would be now. A military shooter that takes itself seriously, not sold out to Fortnitism. Easier said than done, I know... but the time is ripe.

I can't stand this stuff either.

Palitera31d ago

There are tons of MP shooters that make no profit, if you're looking for one of those

fsfsxii31d ago

You guys have been saying this shit since 2009. Fortunately, nobody’s bringing down cod anytime soon, if ever.

crazyCoconuts31d ago

I agree. I really didn't like how the silliness takes away the gritty origins. That and all the crazy effects... dunno. I'm still playing it but I'd love for someone to steal their cheese and cater to grittier players

OtterX31d ago

@fsfsxii It's not so much wanting COD itself to die as it is wanting this silliness to die. Like CrazyCoconuts said, it takes from the grittiness. Many OG COD players want a straightup Military shooter experience, not silly costume time at Carnival.

is this what the kids want these days a pair of iconic stoners who were big in the 70s and have kind of held on I enjoyed their movies decades ago but I never recall the movie where cheech infiltrates a enemy base while chong snipes for support guess I must of missed that one

Man I'm getting to old for this

Knightofelemia31d ago (Edited 31d ago )

Cheech just looks so wrong in the picture.

Profchaos31d ago

Why just why. cod up in smoke

anast31d ago

They charge too much for a game that is kitsch.

MW3 missed its easiest opportunity to give us some of the best Call of Duty maps ever made

From Bootleg to Black Box, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 made a heartbreaking mistake by not remastering the bizarrely forgotten maps from its namesake.
