The next Call of Duty title was revealed last week and from what we’ve seen so far the new title is looking truly impressive.We went through the trailer last week to see what the game is offering and now we have some more eye candy to offer you.
First up we have the image that is making everyone compare the exoskeleton to the recent sci-fi movie Elysium.
The only difference being that this one doesn’t appear to be embedded into your skull. When I first saw the exoskeletons I did wonder if they would be a small feature, like the dog from Ghosts, but from these screens it appears we are going to be strapped in the suit for the entire single player campaign.
Taking a look at the rest of the screens and we get to see the enhanced Juggernaut (Hulk) suit as well as some hazmat suits leading us to believe that chemical warfare is going to occur in the story.
We get to see two more vehicles but I highly doubt that Call of Duty is going to enter the Battlefield area of vehicular warfare anytime soon.
What I am wondering about though is whether or not those hectic helmets are going to be an option in multiplayer. That helmet definitely looks like it could stop a single bullet which would seriously change the way snipers act in multi-player matches.
Maybe the bullet proof helmet is an un-lockable killstreak or perk in the game?
The more I see about this game the more excited I am that Sledgehammer could really change things up this year. Not too much obviously as the franchise is invested in many teams and tournaments. But they could change it enough to get some of the negative nancies to try it again.

Haven’t played COD since Modern Warfare 2 lost interest but this actually looks interesting will definitely give it a try.

“the entire single player campaign” So what, 10 minutes?
Hammersteyn
May 5, 2014 at 11:46
I want them to try open world just once.

May 5, 2014 at 11:46
I’d actually jam the game then

Now now, be nice, its at least 12 minutes

You forgot:
7 Mins spent listening to your dad harp on about the awesomeness of moth balls
6 Mins spent running from a WMD created using Mothballs
3 hours spent stealthily infiltrating an enemy base, in other words securing a uniform and casually strolling around like you own the place.
2 hours trying to act surprised that your dad is really a military bigwig.
20 seconds trying to act surprised when your dad is fatally shot in front of you.
8 Minutes spent wishing the old man will now stop his “Go on without me” speech and just go kaput already.
4 hours admiring Fish AI.
10 Minutes coming up with better game plot/story.

Looks interesting, always liked “realistic” near future settings.
BUT needs a proper SP 20 hour + campaign with a good storyline before I’m parting with my money.

It is called Mass Effect.

That would actually be very cool.
FPS with squad, semi open world, you travel by plane, ship or stealth copper to various hotspots and incidences. You decide which, further the investigation versus controlling the chaos.

Everytime I see that Activision logo I long for new Mechwarrior and Mech Commander game.

*sigh*
I’d really loooove a new MechWarrior

Can not believe they haven’t made a MechCommander game for tablets, they had the idea 10 years before touch screens tablets was released.

Aaah damn it, why can’t someone kickstart something like this? Does Activision still own the rights?
HvR - THE Average GAmer
May 5, 2014 at 14:31
I do not think Activision ever owned the rights although they did make the best games in the series. Later MS Studios also did a good job.
FASA in one form or another has always owned the rights until they sold it to Piranha Games (before going bankrupt as Smith and Tinker) who can not develop a proper games with the best of IP pinching them on the ass and slapping them in the face:
Duke Pukem Forever Multiplayer
PSP versions of Need for Speed
Mechwarrior Online
Die Hard: NP
The last transformers game
The best game they ever amde was those damn Bass Fishing games.

If there is chemical warfare of some kind it’s guaranteed that you’ll be on the side trying to stop it, which is unfortunate because being on the chemical warfare side would probably make for a much deeper story but even then they’d force you to have a crisis of conscience and go over to the “good” side.

May 5, 2014 at 12:23
now you’re thinking like a JRPG 😛
HvR - THE Average GAmer
May 5, 2014 at 12:30
Spec Ops already did it so Activision has no excuse not to copy it.
Kensei Seraph, Sparkly Samurai
May 5, 2014 at 12:32
Well that’s just great.
Now there’s no way in Niflheim that Activision will try anything interesting in the storyline just so that they can avoid the “but you copied XYZ”.
