So that makes 3 studios on 1 game!?
Fish AI Studio
Multiplayer Studio
Second Screen Studio
and no studio for last year's COD campaign cause they just use the same one

Well this all but CONFIRMS it for the Wii U. Which is nice. I think a hardcore shooter would help the sales of the system later this year. I like the idea of an off screen experience. I have a wife who loves to watch tv shows and 4 kids that like to watch cartoons. Makes getting some quality gaming in at any time a lot more easy. Granted i'm not a big fan of COD but its nice to have the option there.

Pretty sure it has more to do with PS4/Vita and Xbox1/Surface along with both systems having the ability to use a Smartphone or Tablet as a "Second Screen" for convienence and added features.

BaronVonRhett4700d ago

Sorry buddy, but that isn't really a confirmation... I mean sure, they have mad Wii CoD before, but with the low sales, it's kind of iffy...

Mikeyy4700d ago

3 studios and nobody bothers to make a new engine...

boldscot4700d ago

Exactly what I was thinking.

rustyspoon804700d ago

How can anyone disagree with you. If they spent as much time developing the engine as they do adding un-needed features, we could have an amazing game.
Get the basics right first and then add the extras later.

OhMyGandhi4700d ago (Edited 4700d ago )

What bugs me the most is that Call of Duty is just such a sound franchise. Sure, the engine is still pretty much the same as before, but I dare anyone tell me that COD: Modern Warfare 1 wasn't one of the best military shooters they've ever played. I had a ton of fun with Black Ops as well, I loved the plethora of online modes, reminded me of the quirky modes found in games like Goldeneye and Timesplitters (Slappers only!).

While they have milked the franchise nearly dry with a lack of overall "improvements", I still say that COD games have a damned fun, albeit short single player, and addictive multiplayer modes.

I got into serious online gaming around the time Unreal Tournament 2004 came out, then I transitioned to Xbox live with Mech Assault, Crimson Skies, and Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow. I would not call myself a fanboy of the franchise because I thought MW2 ( in particular) was one of the most unpolished games I've ever seen, and I've yet to play MW3 or BLOPS2, but this blind hatred for Call of Duty is odd.

Sales alone, means that there are (more then a few) people purchasing the game, yet no one wishes to admit it. It's absolutely hysterical.

The franchise deserves to be here.

sycnation4700d ago

dare I say it stole,
nay, borrowed the concept.from e3 with Ubisofts the division
and dice's bf4?

still not worth the buy or consideration

Oschino19074700d ago

Yeah cause they haven't had a companion app on smartphone/tablet since MW3 that works for both MW3 and BO2. They obviously just thought of the "Second Screen" idea after E3....

Maybe atleast have a clue before attempting to troll, makes all the other trolls look bad.

sycnation4700d ago

k I own n love both mw3 n bo2
an app is just stats and "bragging rights" on paper no more.

both cod n battlefield have apps

they are neither fun nor helpful in game/-real time

try again friend

Oschino19074700d ago (Edited 4700d ago )

Try again k,

Not like you can adjust your classes, join/follow tournaments/contest, extra content (guides to everything, player videos/screenshots/emblems) and has more stats and info then the game itself or anything. It's a mobile version of ELITE which is way more functional then Battlelog which has been 2nd to do everything.

The "Second Screen" wasn't/isn't relevant till this upcomming gen. It's an obvious evolution and something they had planned well ahead of time. To assume its obvious to so many other devs as a useful tool but somehow COD devs just now jumped onto it is absurd.

Maybe you're not a troll but instead an ill informed over opinionated sad case for a gamer who would prefer to spout unfounded nonsense instead of actually leaving a half thought out comment.

#LongLiveLogicalThinking

Oschino19074700d ago

I wasn't very clear I realize now. In my 2nd post I am more speaking ELITE compared to Battlelog in first paragraph and not the apps. I expect more improvements and features comming to Mobile apps (for both) as well with each game as they have been doing. Both are both useable in game/on console in greater amounts.

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

Minimoth1556d ago

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

KyRo1556d ago

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

XbladeTeddy1556d ago

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

MadLad1555d 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.

TheLigX1556d ago

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

Yppupdam1556d 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.

victorMaje1556d ago

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

MadLad1555d 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.

Amplitude1556d ago (Edited 1556d 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

Wore implementation I've ever seen,.. guess it just does not work all that great on every engine

MarkyMark892517d ago (Edited 2517d ago )

Agree, but this gives me hope that one day Ray Tracing can be a software based feature and not require some type of proprietary hardware to achieve. Software will always outpace Hardware so it could happen, but I feel like its going to take a lot more time to achieve the same level that RTX has already shown glimpses of so far. Really just waiting for Cyberpunk to see if RTX is actually something viable. I think if anybody can truly showcase RTX Features it would be Projekt Red.

zeal0us2517d ago

Too bad it doesn't make Mankind Divided a better game.

starchild2517d ago

It doesn't need to, the game was already fantastic, imo.

zeal0us2517d ago

Human Revolution was a better game and not to mention longer.

isarai2517d ago

Reshade is not raytracing, its a screen space post processing effect. Thats like calling SSAO "global illumination"
