Call of Duty Advanced Warfare multiplayer 'a big step forward'

4.2
Sledgehammer Games has said its debut Call of Duty title will shake up the series' tried and trusted multiplayer offering.

Set in the 2054, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare's campaign features mech suits, hover bikes and directed energy weapons, among other futuristic gear and vehicles, some of which will also be included in the game's multiplayer component.

Sledgehammer co-founder Glen Schofield told Metro: "We'll have our own style. The exoskeletons are definitely in there and that's the core of the game."

Fellow studio co-founder Michael Condrey said: "Our multiplayer has what I'm going to call the biggest set of new, as you call it, cool gear that you've seen in a long time.

"It's a big step forward, from three years in development we've been able to innovate across the game. Everything you saw today... just imagine what that's going to mean for multiplayer. You're going to find that new is what it's all about."

Condrey also told Forbes: "On the highest level, the Advanced soldier which our E3 demo showcased is the Advanced soldier you'll see in multiplayer."

The Call of Duty Advanced Warfare release date is November 4 on Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4 and PC.

I'm not too sure how I feel about having hover bikes in Multiplayer..

A step forward, yet it will still be worse than the COD4, WaW and MW2 multiplayer no doubt.

This still looks like BO2 and Ghosts mixed up and decided into one.

Maggardo
Aftermarket
Oasis How about a demo (remember those? -_- ) and not one that releases a year after the game ffs.


I was thinking more of a beta really, no one buys COD for single player anymore right?


Actually, I do. That's the first thing I start, every year, when I get the new Call of Duty. I go right into the Campaign, to see if I like it. I usually then beat the campaign, and worry about multiplayer later.


i hate single player but love achievements so i beat it on veteran every year.

They should release some sort of beta or demo so people can try it out before they buy it.

It better be a big step forward cos halo collectors edition is coming out with multiplayer across all games and for cheaper at the same time. I think this might just be the year that cod dies for good.

I've grown very tired of fellow TTG members scolding Call of Duty developers because they "don't care about the game; they just want to make money".

Guys, you have to understand that Activision (their publisher) is the one who made Call of Duty release on a yearly basis and they are the ones who care about the money.

Developers go to school because they want to be able to make great games, they get a job so they can make great games, and when they make a great game, they want to talk about how great it is because they are proud of it.

Now, I won't say Advanced Warfare will be good. I am just trying to say that the guys at Sledgehammer WANT to create a fantastic game that we'll all enjoy; yes, they get paid regardless but isn't it better to assume they have integrity then to assume they are conniving worms?
