Call of Duty not representative of military life, says Ghosts producer
"There an enormous amount of appreciation for what [veterans] do," Rubin told Game Informer. "In no way do we feel we are a representation of what their lives are like. We are trying to be a cinematic movie experience based on authentic equipment and authentic experience. A lot of the stuff that we show in the game has been done by someone, but it's not a representation of what they do or it's not an equivalent in any way of what they do. We're just trying to make a fun movie."
This is clearly a different approach than the one EA took with Medal of Honor.
Though it's a fictional experience, Hirshberg does note that veterans are included in the development process. "We try to make our games authentic, we try to get the feel right. And then, also, there are guys who come in and do our mo-cap for us and become actors in the game, do the stunts in our commercials, and certainly, there are some high-level consultants who have some harrowing stories that have been some of the inspiration for some of the missions and levels in our games."

It never has represented military life in my opinion, I mean you don't get hitmarkers in real life and you don't chuck C4 around every corner and so on....

Call of Duty 1, 2, and 3 seemed to be the closest they were to a representation of a military life. It went downhill from there. I have to say though, I find the movie style more interesting. I like learning about the military and history when it is found in the game, but there is only so much I can do with that. I am someone who plays the campaign multiple times. When it has cool moments and set pieces, it is better in my opinion. I like that they still get some veterans on board for authenticity. It's pretty cool that they take the time to help with a game, even though they most likely get paid, lol.

DawWoobie Could care less what it represents, I just want to dive into campaign already..
Really ? Most people are excited for multiplayer. But it is the same thing over and over again.
I'm excited for both to be honest, I sometimes enjoy campaign more than MP.

I'm a little excited for the MP, but the campaign should be good too
