Really? I actually enjoy the SP of most Call of Duty games.

Sure, the story is usually cheesy as fuck but they know how to deliver a short and sweet campaign that is one big rollercoaster ride till the end.

If there is a game that should stop with SP, it's Battlefield. Not Call of Duty.

Whatever Ghosts campaign ends up being, I've already played Battlefield 4's and it was awful enough to make any CoD game look like Saving Private Ryan.

 

[breadtruck]

A most enjoyable OT. Well done.

Haven't played it yet, but if it's anything like BF3... then I believe you

Release date: 11/5 in tier 1 countries

:lol :lol

 

[antitrop]

6 and a half hours? That doesn't seem right either.

I finished it in about 5 hours, and I was hardly rushing.

Ya, 5 seems more about what I remember, but fuck if I know. That was 4 years ago, man.

 

[shungokusatsu]

Wonder wtf is up with dedicated servers not being live yet. Really hope they don't drag them out to next year.

 

[rekameohs]

It's......beautiful....

It's a tiny, tiny bit better than BF3. But with worse characters. Irish is like... the worst character ever, just ugh. Again, makes CoD characters look like they were written by Tolstoy.

 

[okayfrog]

Well, if the game drops to $30 or $40 on PC around late December and Ground Wars is populated and not full of hackers, I might pick it up. I'm a sucker for CoD.

 

[kazebyaka]

I don't even know why they bother with SP anymore.

Cod's campaigns are the best in genre.

Worse than Rico from Killzone?

 

[TacticalFox88]

I don't even know why they bother with SP anymore.

If you saw the statistics of the number of people who buy CoD every year who play the campaign only and not online, it'd fucking shock you.

 

[antitrop]

I haven't played Killzone, but some people in the BF4 OT were likening the two in awfulness.

 

[shungokusatsu]

Worse than Rico from Killzone?

Much, much worse.

 

[Dominican Power]

I enjoy them, especially CoD campaigns. Hoping not all dev's go the Titanfall route and ditch SP entirely.

I haven't played a COD SP since MW.

Missing out man. We got to fight copters on horseback with rocket launchers in the last one.

 

[Fantasmo]

You know, what? I think it's totally okay that Treyarch took the franchise and made it their own with Black Ops 1 and 2, with all the crazy ridiculous shit that happens in that game. That's fine. I like some variety.

But the fact that Infinity Ward-lite feels the need to piggy back off of what Treyarch is doing makes the franchise seem stale.

We had crazy fucking CoD last year... and now crazy fucking CoD this year. Can I just get some CoD that isn't fucking crazy, again? There's two different development teams, why does Ghosts just seem like Black Ops III? I'm not saying that I want Modern Warfare 3, either, because that game was not good, to me (still too eclectic). World at War was great, though!

Real answer: Extreme has been the in thing for years, and these games are on a 2 year cycle. 2 years ago, IW/Activision couldn't predict that we're starting to get bored of extreme. So they designed around the money and market. Hopefully Activision starts to pay attention, they're calling the shots. Creativity died with IW leaving (which isn't to say they haven't lost their touch as Respawn either).

I love MP too much to even care.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

For what it is worth, this strongly disagrees with you: http://www.howlongtobeat.com/search.php?t=games&s=modern+warfare+2

can't look because im on my PS3 but thats all it took me.
I only got killed a single time which was a grenade in Favala.
didn't believe the time when I checked so I looked at my stats, 2:40 something.
and I was playing like I always play and not speed running.

 

[Darkmakaimura]

I could give less screws about this game but wanted to chime in to say that's one of the funnier OT's I've ever seen.

 

[TheRealTalker]

Man the OT.... Too good

BRAVO!

 

[RoylAsult]

does anyone know if this game needs to be installed on a HDD for the 360? meaning i cant play it on my 4gb slim... like how BF4 screwed me over and forced me to get it on the PS3

 

[Teknoman]

Extinction mode has my curiosity peaked. The new movement system seems like it might make MP feel alot better too.

Man I havent enjoyed MP since MW1 too...hoping for the best.

EDIT: Hopefully the aliens have better hit feedback than the zombies. That was just irritating.

 

[Seik]

Dat OT.

Nice job!

 

[brickarts295]

Best OT of 2013 so far, Sorry GTA V

 

[jmizzal]

Wheres Megan Fox

 

[Frolow]

So the big question: Do they kill the dog?

 

[CSX]

OP is amazing lol

 

[Returners]

Who's thinking of doing disc upgrade? I'm conflicted which version to get (current-gen to next or just stick with next gen only)

 

[antitrop]

So the big question: Do they kill the dog?

In the sequel.

 

[Professor Beef]

Are there Sniper Rifles in this game? And are they any good?

 

[Kacho]

I am. Your stats carry over apparently, so I'm going to go ahead and the the 360 version so I have something to play until the One releases.

 

[Paskil]

This OT is gotdamn incredible.

 

[TetraGenesis]

Are there Sniper Rifles in this game? And are they any good?

Not a single sniper rifle in the whole game.

I know, weird.

 

[Gorillaz]

So the big question: Do they kill the dog?

No.



You play as the dog in the end.

 

[antitrop]

No.



You play as the dog in the end.

It's only cool if you can piss on stuff.

 

[shungokusatsu]

Not a single sniper rifle in the whole game.

I know, weird.

Huh? One of the trophies/achievements is for sniping.

 

[Korten]

Why do I feel like if BF introduced a dog companion everyone would be fine with it, but since it's Call of Duty, that makes it bad for some reason. :/

 

[thefit]

No way its way worse every chapter looks like the last and it never gets challenging at least in BF3 they had you switching between different characters and locations and you got to fly and have tank and other vehicle battles BF4 you get to ride a boat in a straight line and the ending (s)...ugh.

[Night Angel]

This OT is amazing. Hope people can take a joke.

He's joking.

*Raises hand*.

 

[thefit]

I didn't even bother to finish BLOPS 2 sp and tried a few weeks ago to finish and then I realized why I din't bother with it in the first place what a garbage game.

 

[alr1ght]

 

[Card Boy]
