CoD: Advanced Warfare trailer debuts four-player co-op mode, Details

4.6

This latest Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare trailer does two things: It offers fans their first look at the game's four-player co-op Exo Survival gameplay mode, and it handily demonstrates that no amount of futuristic gunplay can overshadow Kevin Spacey when he's in full scenery-chewing supervillain mode.

It supports 1-4 players, including two player split screen

Similar to MW3, you play on the multiplayer maps
You unlock new tiers and maps through playtime

How to unlock each tier? complete 35 rounds (doesn’t have to be in one sitting) to unlock Tier 2, 75 rounds to get Tier 3, and 100 rounds to unlock tier 4.

Exo-Surivial has random objective based rounds, where you have to collect intel off of dead corpses. If you successfully retrieve it, then you earn an extra upgrade. But, there’s also a penalty for failing. If you fail, there’s a penalty. Sometimes a “system hack” kicks in, where your screen goes blurry for a period of time, or sentry guns are dropped in and shot at you for a whole round.

There’s three classes: Light (faster loadout, but less power), Heavy (slower), and Special (between Light and Heavy)

At the end of each round, you get the chance to upgrade your character “post-round upgrades”. You earn points by defeating enemies and completing objectives. To use your points, you have to go to an upgrade station and spend points upgrading exo. There’s an Armory Upgrade to upgrade your weaponry.

On the HUD, there’s a support bar; if you fill it up, then you earn support drops
Highest round an developer at SHGames has reached is 65 rounds

Has a revive mode where you can revive a downed team mate
Character progression is persistent
Supports matchmaking or private lobby play

I really hope this is semi decent. Aside from Spec Ops in MW2 and Zombies, they've been way off on the others.

FaIIen Not going to touch this mode, it failed in MW3, it will fail again.

You don't know that as you haven't even played the game yet. Sometimes you have to give things a chance. As said "Don't judge a book buy it's cover."

But honestly I will give it a try, I always wanted the co-OP campaign In a new cod like from WaW not multiplayer co-OP survival mode, it isn't that fun to play.

This looks like it WILL suck becuase MW3s Survival mode was crappy until Infinity Ward came out with DLC #4 with the chaos mode but I'll probably just play it for achievements (if any) and this will maybe give me reason on why I shall keep it on my HDD.

d0xy MW3's co op mode sucked. BO2 had zombies and Ghosts had extinction which were amazing. This sounds terrible but I like that there would only be 3 classes, similar to Destiny. If they could make a healing class or protecting class which only used support killstreaks that would be interesting, and maybe the heavy class could be LMG's and assault killstreaks while the special class used close range weapons and fast movement.

Thats your opinion

And mw3 co op wasnt that bad you just have to get used to it

I had something better in my mind that might be announced but this seems ok.

I was extremely disappointed when I saw this trailer yesterday. Looks like an exact copy of Survival Mode from MW3 which wasn't fun at all IMO. Wasn't expecting zombies but I was expecting something new and exciting. I won't be playing this mode much at all but I'm still pretty excited for AW.

This reminds me a lot of MW3 Co-op which was basically the same thing. I understand SHGames helped develop MW3 but they could at least change up the Co-op.
