CoD: Advanced Warfare gameplay, plot and characters detailed

4.1
Yet more Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare information has seemingly leaked online, revealing plot details, characters and gear.

This comes in wake multiple major leaks regarding Sledgehammer's debut CoD game, including a Call of Duty: Advanced Warfighter trailer and first info.

Advanced Warfighter serves as a "carefully researched and crafted vision of the future", according to the newly emerging document. Jonathan Irons is the founder of the world's largest Private Military Corporations (PMCs), Atlas Corporation, in an era when PMCs are the dominant military forces of the world.

The game takes advantage of its futuristic setting to grace players with the power of a heavily augmented soldier, equipped with a cybernetic exoskeleton that lets players achieve "boost jumps and grappling, covert cloaking abilities, and biomechanics that provide unparalleled strength, awareness, endurance, and speed".

New futuristic gear including "equipment, technology, perks, and vehicles like hoverbikes and highly specialized drones", are also described.

Players will wield weapons that shoot "standard ammunition", as well an a "new class of directed-energy weaponry that enables totally new gameplay dynamics".

This comes together to provide a refreshing new take on Call of Duty gameplay, promises the document.

"With the advent of the exoskeleton and newly advanced armor and weaponry, every soldier commands tactical freedom in any terrain unlike ever before, fundamentally changing the way gamers play Call of Duty across all modes," it says.

AGB has also posted what appears to be final box art for the game (pictured at the bottom of this report).

Activision announced on Thursday that it would fully reveal the forthcoming Call of Duty installment on Sunday, May 4. According to the leaks, the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare release date is set for November 4 on PC, last-gen and current-gen consoles.

Here's the document as posted in full:

Product Description

This is not even Call of duty anymore. I liked the cod4, WaW, mw2 era better than this excuse of a video game.

People ask for something different, they do something different and the people complain don't like changes. I prefer Call of Duty to be mostly about the gun skill, not any of these hovercraft things, but I'll buy it anyway because I'm sure there will be another MLG Variant playlist

The box art looks cool and all but it reminds me of Titanfall; how the exo-skeleton can boost you and all that.

Hover bikes and cloaking abilities, ARE YOU SERIOUS BRO? I'd rather have another Paper Mario game then this BS and I've never even played Paper Mario.

AR15 Just as always, everyone (most everyone) is excited for the newest Call of Duty. They're literally the same game with a new storyline and graphical touch ups. Minor stuff. NOT a new game.


You sir are stupid. You can say that for every other sequel game there is.


Accept Halo :) Best story ever plus change up in gameplay.


Exactly, look at the changes from Halo 2 to Halo 3. Then Halo 3 to Halo: Reach. THEN to Halo 4, constantly evolving and still amazing every year.

You can't say that about every sequel, what about GTA? GTA V was way better than all the other ones, and yes, also Halo. I think Sledgehammer in general is stuck around this one way that they see CoD, I think that Treyarch did an amazing job on Black Ops II but Black Ops I was so horrible. I really wish this game was Treyarch's :( It would be so much better.

I like the case designs of the game. I hope that the DLC's will come out at the same time on all consoles.
