Best decision I ever made in gaming was giving up console and going back to the master race.

I am absolutely down for a remastered COD4.
I haven't bought the last 3-4 COD's, but they will get my money for this one (and I guess whatever Infinite Warfare ends up being). |

I'm sure download codes will show up on game trading sites.
I'll probably pick one up that way. I bet the charge $20 which is OK with me. Then I'll Redbox the single player. |

Okay, so I'm confused.
Is "Infinite Warfare" a game of its own? Or is it the name of the remastered COD 4? |

Quoted: I think if we wait we can get MW separately and not have to spend the money on IW. New COD just isn't for me.

Be a nice change if Call of Duty just took a full step into space battles and space marines. Fight across different planets, fight in close quarters in enemy ships, etc etc. We could also have nifty references to the United States Colonial Marines. Kinda getting sick of this pseudo-future where we are still stuck on Planet Earth. Plus, it could finally be seen as a competitor to Halo. |

Now that companies are spending Hollywood budgets on games they're adopting Hollywood risk aversion to trying anything new (Thanks EA!). It just floors me that people with throw money hand over fist for stale development. |

LOL I fell into the MW console trap for a hot minute. Same game over and over again, you could see the same resources being reused. It's bad enough to pay 50-60 bucks for a game over and over again with differnt numbers behind it (To then have the privilege to pay more money for DLC). But this is just silly, getting to pay to be able to get the same game over again? Now it's Buy the new game and get a free"Remastered" version... wow.

I'm kinda torn on this.
Count me in the camp of the guys that don't really care for the futuristic settings and crazy movements. I *hated* the movement system in Advanced Warfare, and I've come to terms with it in Blops 3, but I'd much rather prefer plain jane, ground based PVP combat. No wall running, boosting, swimming, sliding, hokey-pokeying or any of that stuff. But on the other hand, I don't want to get keyholed into buying another shitty COD to get back to the basic roots of Modern Warfare. The only way I can directly influence game developers and studios is to choose whether to buy, play, and support their product. But to get something I potentially might want (or at least to get first shot at it), Modern Warfare remastered, they're telling me I have to buy their new game too? Bad form. How's about this - I'll buy your new game if it's good. And if it isn't good, don't make me pay for it to get something else I want. |

COD4 was the best COD they ever made... and it was still horribly balanced.
pretty much tells you all you need to know about COD. |

Less Jumpy Jumpy Wall Humping bullshit, more ground based combat. |

That was the last COD I played regularly online. I'm sucked back into Counter Strike now. Or I was until my PC died and now I just watch people play it on Twitch.

That's not to say that COD, BF, Arma, etc. don't require skill, but the learning curve for CS is totally different than most other first person shooters, IMO. Learning map call outs, recoil patterns, buying strategy between rounds, opening routes, it's a different beast than spawning into a TDM lobby in Call of Duty and running around with a shotgun or whatever. |

That game made me so angry. Lots of expletives were yelled at my monitor for that one. The multiplayer was probably one of the worst of the franchise, IMO. As far as single player campaigns go, I really liked Black Ops 1 and 2. I really, really liked the Cold War setting of Blops 1, probably my favorite single player COD experience overall. And the multiplayer of both of those games, especially Blops 2, was great. Black Ops 2 probably had the least infuriating shit multiplayer wise of any COD to date as far as I'm concerned. |

Sometimes i play games on my computer, sometime in the living room on the Xbox...... Because PC elitists need whatever reason they can get to justify their existence. As a PC "elitist" (still play my ps4 more), consoles are getting the short end of the stick. Sure, the same game is usually released on PC, it looks prettier but it is the same rip off IMO. The difference between the two is that there are way more options on PC that generally cost less. Not quite sure what he was getting at though. Ordered overwatch for pc, pre ordered no man's sky for ps4. I think there is a place for consoles and PC, each has pros and cons and the people that think PCs are pure pros and zero cons are out of their minds. That said I hope they release MW remastered separate at some point. I think the sales numbers will make them pull their heads of their asses and reevaluate their priorities (gameplay vs Hollywood production values). Not quite sure of the hate for cs:go. Just recently got into it, I played CS 1.6 and source quite a bit. Sure it isn't the prettiest game, but it runs on pretty much everything with a decent framerate. CS:GO is just source with all the competitive e sports stuff built in. any of the CS games are always fun IMHO as it's simple, but takes some time to get good. |

View Quote That is great and spot on. COD4 is was of my favorite games and IMO the best COD I played (stopped after MW2). The campaign was great with a movie worthy story/conflict that applies to modern concerns and conflicts. I'd replay "All Ghillied Up" and "Crew Expendable" time and time again. Who could forget the AC130 level using thermal imagery? And "Mile High" on Veteran difficulty was the hardest achievement I ever got. The multiplayer was also phenomenal. Great gameplay, great maps, and enough "features" to keep you entertained without sensory overload (though MW2 perfected the replay ability aspect of multiplayer). I dumped my Xbox earlier this year but I will always have a place for COD4... |
