Call of Dooty: Modern Warfare 3

[Mr Buckshot]

They did the past, the present, some bullshit future, and now they need to move on to do a Scifi Future Call of Duty.

Crysis 2, it might as well be called "Call of Duty: Future Warfare".

Reveal trailer did look entertaining.

I'm wondering if they'll fix the character models such that they update properly when a weapon is drawn. It makes me LOL to see Price draw his M1911 to execute Al-Asad - and his holster still contains his M1911, it's as if he somehow squeezed two in there! Even worse were the scenes with Shepherd, where he just reached behind him and magically produced his revolver/knife as if it were taped to his back (while the weapon was clearly visible in his holster the whole time). Just reflects pure laziness with animations, I mean games on the previous gen consoles and even the PSP have been able to do this properly so it's really not hard to do it this gen.

I hope in-game looks that good. Because god damn do CoD particle effects always seem to look like shit. That video looked refreshingly clean.

I think that was all in-game, and yes it does look a lot cleaner than MW2 was. Hard to describe how but it does just look to have a better atmosphere and overall color.

Meh. It's a burnt out engine being used by a burnt out company...

The company isn't really "burned out" per se...I mean come on, half of Infinity Ward is new and they also have the help of two other studios. One being Raven Software who made Singularity which is a pretty nice game when I played it. In response to the engine though:"Moved beyond its MW2 Tech"

[Mr Buckshot]

They may claim to be moving beyond the engine, but they're still developing for a 6 year old console that doesn't even render in true 720p (it runs below that and artificially upconverts it).

Of course, gameplay before tech - otherwise I wouldn't be playing old games.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the resolution is entirely Dependant on the game it's running.
Halo 3 used a lower than 720 to enhance the lighting but games running on source seem to be running 720 perfectly fine.

Because... All the other countries seemed to have their own military forces for their respective scenes. Then Franc3 was all like "make love not war, we suck at fighting".

Maybe we sent a FAST team to assist or something?

Every CoD game comes out before my birthday, never spent a penny on any CoD game, so I don't need to complain.

Also I was at Red Robins today, packed full of people and the MW3 trailer showed, everybody was like jizzing in their pants, except for a few people who sneered.

E: Warlord, +rep

[Warsaw]

The ones who sneered are Battlefield players. Like me. I sneered.

@ODX: By in-game, I mean actual gameplay in-game. All of ME2 was "in-game", but some of the cutscenes looked drastically better.

Older than the Internet. But still amusing n this conversation. +rep

ROFL, oh Activision, your statements never cease to amuse outrage me:

Activision has officially announced Call of Duty: Moder Warfare 3, which is set to be released on November 8, 2011. And get this: the publisher thinks the game is going to be awesome.

Activision believes Modern Warfare 3 will deliver "the most advanced multiplayer ever". Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg labelled it the "year's most anticipated entertainment launch".

"Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is by far the most epic Call of Duty experience yet," said Hirshberg. "The teams at Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer Games have worked tirelessly to create for the Call of Duty player a scale that is unimaginable with a level of polish and creativity that will push the genre forward.

"The passion and energy of our developers is reflected in everything about the title. From the innovative gameplay, to the cinematic intensity, to the most advanced multiplayer ever, Modern Warfare 3 will raise the bar for this already incredible franchise."
