So MW 2 will be more like special forces missions only? I loved that first mission, in COD 4 but it was too scripted/limited.

matchgrade6269d ago (Edited 6269d ago )

MW 1 was already special forces only. The SAS and Marine Force Recon are both real-world special operations forces (although admittedly, there wasn't a whole lot of actual recon in the blazing gunbattles of the John Wayne, i mean Marines, portion of the campaign).

I can only hope you get to play as Spetsnaz. if the trailer is any indication it could be really cool =D

@ Match.

I can only hope and pray that with a 'New direction" Maybe we'll get to see the otherside of war. I mean I was deployed and saw some crazy things and the truth is it's never "good vs bad" it's opposing ideals. If they can harness that.... it will be even better then COD4 I feel. But either way I'll still be happy =D Here's hoping

matchgrade6269d ago (Edited 6269d ago )

Sadly, the trailer suggests that IW probably intends to once again villanize the "evil Russians" as they did in Modern Warfare 1.

But there's always multiplayer =D

cactuschef6269d ago

I think the last level on the plane where you rescue the VIP will be more like the levels in MW2. More tactical and less all out warfare.

@matchgrade

They didn't villainize the Russians... It was a group of extremists... The Russians themselves didn't do anything.

If you're going to say they villainized the Russians, mine as well say the same thing for the islamic extremists you fought.

i think this is going be whole new franchise,or its going be delivered that way.

badz1496269d ago

just CoD4 with a new story. I doubt it will be leap and bound better than CoD4. I might be wrong! after KZ2, it's really hard to be impressed by anthing else!

N4Sony6269d ago

Lack of split-screen hurt the value. I LOVE that game, still play it, but since COD5 was packing split-screen, MW2 best have it. (same engine).

chaosatom6269d ago

I would like to have this option in more games.

Resistance 1 had it in campaign and R2 had it online, but a combination would be truly amazing.

N4Sony6269d ago

Not just competitive.

Thanks @ above for specifying that for me! My bad team!

2FootYard6269d ago

My copy of Call of Duty 4 had split-screen.

chaosatom6269d ago

that was offline and off-campaign tho.

N4Sony6269d ago

Sorry, I should have specified. I meant co-op campaign

matchgrade6269d ago (Edited 6269d ago )

I wish people would seriously stop overanalyzing the name change. IW just wanted to streamline the title so that it would be a title and a number (Modern Warfare 2) instead of a title, subtitle, and then a number (Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2). It's a trivial adjustment, and I think people would stop treating it like a divine signal from the FPS gods only decipherable by those bored enough to figure it out.

traverstrousers6269d ago

Amen... All this game needs to be perfect and make KZ2 look average is Chuck Norris

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing36d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9236d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit36d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing36d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9236d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
