CoD: Advanced Warfare made for last-gen by High Moon

4.5
The PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare are being made by High Moon Studios, otherwise known for developing the Transformers Cybertron games and Deadpool.

Work on the PC, PS4, and Xbox One versions of Advanced Warfare game is led by Sledgehammer Games. Studio co-founders Glen Schofield and Michael Condrey told Game Informer that Sledgehammer has put all of its resources into making a new-gen title.


"Our focus is on innovation for the franchise, unrestricted by last generation hardware constraints, and the additional third year of development has allowed the team to make bold decisions to deliver on a new era in Advance Warfare," the co-founders said.

Parent company Activision chose High Moon, another of its internal studios, to take over work on the other versions of the game - which are "also going to be great".

"They are committed to bringing an incredible X360 and PS3 Call of Duty game to fans," Sledgehammer's co-founders added. "We've been working closely with those guys to ensure players get an awesome Call of Duty experience on all platforms."

Condrey confirmed earlier this week that Advanced Warfare will not release on Wii U. Both Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 and Call of Duty: Ghosts previously appeared on Nintendo's system.

They're committed to bring an incredible experience, lets hope they succeed in doing so but the chances seem slim to X360 and PS3 players.

Just let these guys make the next transformers game already. Its like what Microsoft was (or still is) doing to rare. Making them make games we don't want.

This is another reason why I will not be purchasing this game.

Absolutely terrible...

FlaonPosted:

The same thing happened with ghosts. It's a lot better on the X1 than 360 by far. I will definitely be getting it on X1

AxePosted:

Thats one of the many reasons why I wouldn't even consider buying this game for either console...

PryzelPosted:

Hope this doesn't affect people on 360/ps3 too much, good to see they are focusing on next gen though.

They're just telling you to keep up on the newest and best hardware (Great PC, Xbox One, PS4)

I personally think Sledgehammer, Infinityward, Treyarch are just deading the community and will personally not tell you how ANY of their games work anymore.

"Yeah, lets just make another COD game with more gamebreaking features such as hardcore health in core modes, OP Killstreaks, non-as-intense singleplayer campaign and watch our sales rise because we dont give a crap about the people who buy our game and the people who mod their ranks! All we care about is the money and not the quality!"

^^Pretty much how it goes


I agree with them doing this tbf, it's like if you have a PS3+4, and you're playing Ghosts on PS3, you like it, and you play it on the PS4 and it's even better - you will never see the point in going back to the PS3, in theory the last gen consoles couldn't handle the size of the AW game on what they've built for the 8th gen consoles. Makes sense to me than themselves starting from scratch in which it could be a huge flop compared to the current gen

I think the next gen models are up and coming rather quickly so i think its an alright decision.
