Nihilistic: "It is not our call to put Zombies Mode in BO: Declassified."

as others have mentioned its probably a timing issue, Sony wants COD vita asap. zombies mode adds development time to what is likely a very tight schedule.
 
I think this tweet further implies that this project is basically CoD IP "licensed" by Sony and given to Resistance dev to do reskinning.

It's not necessarily a bad thing, imagine:

Bioshock Vita by Nihilistic
Borderlands Vita by Nihilistic
Angry Birds Vita by Nihilistic
GTA SAS Vita by Nihilistic
Gears of War Vita by Nihilistic
Left 4 Dead Vita by Nihilistic
Half Life Vita by Nihilistic
Portal Vita by Nihilistic
Dragon Quest Vita by Nihilistic
Final Fantasy Vita by Nihilisitic
Kingdom Hearts Vita by Nihilistic
Monster Hunter Vita by Nihilistic
MGS Vita by Nihilistic
Elder Scroll Vita by Nihilistic
Fallout Vita by Nihilistic
RDR Vita by Nihilistic
Battlefield Vita by Nihilistic
Mass Effect Vita by Nihilistic
Dead Space Vita by Nihilistic
Diablo Vita by Nihilistic
Resident Evil Vita by Nihilistic
Gran Turismo Vita by Nihilistic
The Last of Us Vita by Nihilistic
God of War Vita by Nihilistic

And since a longer dev time doesn't mean a damn thing with Nihilistic, this means they can all be out by next year. At least you get all the major 3rd party franchises and 3 bonus 1st party franchises on vita.
 
Why doesn't Sony delay this game? Oct/Nov is crammed with new Vita releases already. Delaying this would allow more time for polish, and zombies.
 
So many Sony fanboys being super hurt over the OPs comment. Although it's just as much Activision's duty as it is Sony's, if Sony really wanted a CoD game on the Vita they would badger Activision about it as Activision doesn't seem to give a fuck about Declassified.

Good going, Sony.

Screams DLC.
 
Just watched a trailer for this game. Are people that desperate for Vita games that they'd seriously be tempted to buy that at full price?

It looked absolutely terrible. And if this and AC flops I think that's it for any more support for Vita from the bigger publishers.

Because this is supposed to be the big Vita holiday game.

But, Assasins Creed Liberation is big enough already for a holiday game. They should've focused on that, with a staggered release from the console version by a two weeks to cross promote, and a big marketing push with ads and commercials.

Then they should've delayed COD until Q2 2013.

Is it possible that it's Treyarch that is blocking it? Isn't Zombies mode kind of their baby, and I doubt Activision wants to piss them off now that they're the A-team for CoD.

nspace did zombie modes for the ds games.

whoever made the CoD zombie games for ios... naturally made zombie modes.

I feel like Activision isn't that confident with Nihilistic, and this game is a just a trial run. If it turns out decent, hopefully next years end up more feature packed.
 
Guys I tweeted 3arc and Activision support. They just replied. Thanks for the feedback we will relay the message. I asked them to greenlight Zombie mode for Vita.
I say we blast their asses with tweets.

Looks can be deceiving I actually played it and it wasn't all that bad way better then Resistance Vita couldn't even believe it was the same devs. I went in there with the most lowest expectations possible I was actually gonna skip playing the game altogether and I came out extremely positive.

I made that gif really small in terms of dimensions cause I suck at making normal sized gifs that aren't like 50MB. It's supposed to show how the rounds don't drop after being fired, they simply shake :lol

that's not really a game breaking issue for me.

Whoever is publishing this, they probably don't wish to delay the game to fit zombie mode in. They probably think making the holiday season is pretty crucial, even though a CoD game would likely sell great any time of the year.

You said Sony would have the ability to do it by themselves, but i doubt they would.

E: You edited it now :P Maybe Activision think Zombies being in there would tarnish the Zombies brand or something. Or they're planning on releasing a standalone Zombies game? :P

if it wasn't clear i was saying that sony have the ability to prevent Zombies going in by themselves. not that they have the ability to put it in without Activisions say so.

Not a game breaking issue but shows a lack of attention to detail. Sure its not the only thing overlooked and it just adds to the saying rush job. Im gonna pick the game up too. I love games is all I have to say on that lol

Yeah that is really what it looks like. I guess otherwise Activision would have never bothered with the Vita. At least Sony could have picked a better dev...
 
Wheres the mother fucker who stood on stage and touted TRUE COD EXPERIENCE lol
If this game had more time it could have been ok.

The Vita is just not getting any of the attention it deserves. It's sad to say, and I didn't want these days to come, but smartphones and tablets are gobbling up all the news nowadays. Aside from major console releases, you're always reading about the new version of iOS or next Android handset. Whatever money does have left definitely needs to go towards advertising and getting exclusive rights. Haven't they learned their lesson already with Rockstar and Activision?

we all know it's rushed already. if they are focusing on making it feel like COD at the expense of some graphical details thats fine with me, but I'm waiting until the game is done and playable before deciding that it sucks.
 
Simple, if they put Zombies on the Vita version, they have no traction when they release CoD Zombies : Declassified in 2013.

Oh who am I kidding, the Vita isn't going to make it that long.
 
I'm going to bet it's because both Sony and Activison want this game on store shelves day and date with the console one. Zombies would require a higher budget and more development time.
 
Then don't use Zombies, use real people with knives that come at you and try to take you out instead, like Resident Evil 4 infected dudes (fyi, they're not really zombies either!). Think outside the box. This is why you suck Nil >:(
