Gear Up, Operators!

IGN has an exclusive look at Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare's new "Pick 13" system, shown

here.

Do you think it'll be balanced or broken?

:)

 

Every player looks the same? what about custom gear?

exactly. I know all about the armory and supply drops. I know about the customization within the operators menu. But in game, everyone looks the same. You only look different in the lobby if you scroll over a player. All the custom gear is turned to a cookie
cutter player in the lobby. Sounds like Tennessee Shane noticed it too.

 

Mortar from fun to obligation.

Use sound suppressors. You won't show up on a mortar operators radar when you fire. Most of my mortar kills are people who flash up on radar after firing.

You're still spottable though so keep your head down and make sure to spot for your own mortar operators! It's very hard for them to be effective without good spotters!

 

Would you believe I haven't played this franchise before/yet.

This is much anticipated by me, as it will be a first. I have played borderlands, halo ect, & now have started my new Destiny, but doing the story first. Then once Ive honed my skills, will jump into MP. Tbo, Im pretty bad, & die a lot, but still slug
it out & enjoy the whole reason I play games in the first place. & that is for fun.

In reply to your topic, it all looks good to me.

The video showed some nice aspects which I would expect would do as said. Wont know till games is released, as everything else is speculation. Makes for interesting conversation.

Cheers.

 

Ill be trying this game out at the end of the month at EGX

 

It just goes to show what an amazing line up of games are on the XBox ONE when the "Modern Warfare" offering is probably the least exciting of the bunch.

Please note that this is not actually a criticism of the new "Modern Warfare" offering.

 

ITs COD its always broken.

 

What game isn't.

Should hopefully be fun.

However I'm not going to be as quick to go for any Season Passes this time around after the "Ghosts" offering didn't seem up to the standard of "Modern Warfare 3" for me.

 

CODS single players is amazing but the MP is broken beyond belif in every one. From Kill streks to the kifing. Now am i saying this games is broken broken no. Every thing else is there just the items is broken. I remeber the reval MP the shogun was op as
hell. But i will pick up at chritmas because i love the Single player.

 

It worked well in Black Ops 2.

No reason it wouldn't work in this game as well.

 

Pick 13, just ridiculous in my opinion. CoD's campaign's are awesome, just the MP has been copy and paste since Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. I have been done with CoD's MP since MW3. Adding Exo Suits to an already fast paced FPS while taking shots
at Respawn with their MP is not new, or refreshing. Activision needs to just slow down, re-evaluate the MP land scape and see how they can capture lighting in a bottle again.

 

I'll see how it plays at EGX on the 26th and make my mind up from there

I tend to agree. If it doesn't interfere with any other games that I'm interested in, when it comes out, I'll likely just rent it for the campaign. The MP will have to be monumentally different to interest me. Some
of the first videos I saw made me say 'CoD: Reach'.

As for Pick 13... meh. Just more customization options for the same old ****. Although I guess I can credit them for at least allowing you to choose no 'kill streak rewards' at all (for those of us who are that bad
at getting them) and giving us 'points' to assign to other perks and such. At least that (IMO) is a step in the right direction. Thing is, it's a baby step... one that doesn't make it outside the cookie cutter.
