US, April 25, 2007 - Just when you were about ready to run up to the window and yell, "I'm mad as hell at World War II shooters, and I'm not gonna take it anymore!", Activision and developer Infinity Ward are announcing today that the fourth entry in the Call of Duty franchise is moving on from World War II. The game is not quite ready to be unveiled (the game's debut trailer is being debuted on ESPN during the NFL Draft on Saturday), but the subtitle of the game gives away the new direction: Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is Call of Duty like we've never seen it before. The game looks set to transfer combat operations from WWII to the modern battlefields our soldiers face today.
Little is known about Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare at the moment, but we're hopeful that the move to recent times also ushers in other big changes for the acclaimed franchise. Although some gamers are bound to feel that this sequel is coming uncomfortably quick on the heels of Call of Duty 3, franchise creator Infinity Ward has actually had a good deal of time to work on part 4 -- developer Treyarch handled COD3 while COD4 was deep in development. Activision has not yet announced which platforms the game will be released on, but IGN confirmed in February of 2006 that the development team had been scoping this game out primarily for Xbox 360 and PS3.

Look for the worldwide debut of the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare trailer Saturday, April 28 on ESPN at 10 am Pacific Time / 1 pm Eastern Time during the NFL Draft. Check back with IGN once the trailer has run for even more on Call of Duty 4.

YES YEEES YEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!111111111

+rep.
Hmmm i never played a CoD by myself BUT i find it cool that they go away from WW2.

[totobeni]

bankrupt ideas ?

so they goes from Moh clone to Battlefield 2: Modern Combat clone..

...Infinity Ward should try to make something else ..something huge ..something new even if it's still FPS ..

a FPS game that talk about freedom , that also have a inside messages about our world today ( like MGS series or Jaffe's "canned" Heartland ) and with actual story with characters and stuff ..

i just get enough of all that FPS wars random battles crap ...

[Grovestreet]

Call of Duty owns Medal of Honor, well it did up until Airborne got shown imo.

And its a Battlefield 2 Clone? How? Because its a modern warfare shooter? We haven't even seen it so we have no idea how its going to look/play.

[saud264]

i wish be better then call of duty 3

HEY. IT'S NOT A WORLD WAR 2 GAME. Let's be thankful for that much at least.:shocked: :shocked:

I hope it is a BF clone, but better, BF is too damn arcadey, it would rock if it played more realistic and more utilized more strategy online.

[Fillibuster]

Awesome!!! Great news, I'm super pumped. I'm just really hoping for a PC release, I've always played COD on PC, and I think that was my major turn off with COD3. I think this Modern Warfare turn is a great direction to head in. Can't wait for Saturday!

[Grovestreet]

Players, according to the rumour, will operate as part of the S.A.S, US Marines and the US Army, with the action occurring in such locations as the Middle-East, the streets of Eastern Europe, aboard sea vessels in the North Atlantic and London.

Playing as the SAS is going to be so much fun!

And thanks for the Rep Buster.

[curryking1]

As long as this isn't like COD2 and 3 which were really just COD1, except prettier, then I won't feel as violated by taking the time to try them.

This one is in the hands of the makers of the original right? Ok good Infinity Ward is on it.

[makeitlookreal]

Multiplatform games no longer excite me as much. It seems they focus all their time on the 360 version and then just make a quick port for the PS3.

[Grovestreet]

The source compared Call of Duty 4’s technical achievements to other games saying that while most shooters have two or three critical points on the head, Call of Duty 4 has 16, saying that you can shoot the side of an opponent’s helmet to make it spin on their head, or knock the helmet clean off. Supposedly you will even be able to shoot an enemy’s ear off.

Shoot an enemies ear off....jesus...

[Fillibuster]

Wow...now those are going to be some cool ass firefights!

[curryking1]

This is sounding like a big step up (a real step up... unlike COD2 or 3...) from moving from last gen to this gen.... as gruesome as it is.

That is amazingly, technically... fabolously, disgusting and exciting at the same time. That is actually nuts sounding. I really, really want to see how this is going to turn out now.

Great catch Grove. That has me much more interested in the title, I was worried it was going to be 'just COD1' all over again.

[angelcage]

:pointer: B00m 34r 5h0t!!11one :dur:

[GTAce]

Oh nose another game that i cant buy in germany. 8(

[LiquidEagle]

This is going to be sweet, and it'll be much better than CoD3 :-D

[Kiosko]

I'm glad there moving away from WWII. I hear enough about that in school.

[totobeni]

Oh nose another game that i cant buy in germany. 8(

that good for you , believe me ,it's just a another soulless random battles War game , there is zillion fazillion other ..save your $$$ for something worth it...like next Team ICO game ..

[Grovestreet]

that good for you , believe me ,it's just a another soulless random battles War game , there is zillion fazillion other ..save your $$$ for something worth it...like next Team ICO game ..

GTFO...all you do is bash games...Even games that haven't been shown to the public...Like...COD4...

[LiquidEagle]

Remember when that COD4 teaser video was released a long time ago and it had like a plane doing an air strike & stuff? We all thought it couldn't be COD because it was modern... :laugh:

Anybody have a link to that trailer again? I have a feeling the original thread is long-since dead.

[totobeni]

GTFO...all you do is bash games...Even games that haven't been shown to the public...Like...COD4...

:evil: it's called Evil ....

bashing ? i don't think so...but i think all War games that put you on rail random battles ( like all Moh ,Cod ,GRAW ..ect ) is meaningless for next-gen ..it's just like all flash Mini games but with huge budget ..

for you next-gen is PC's 5 years ago ...for me it's LBP and Uncharted

Here it is. (http://www.techeblog.com/index.php/tech-gadget/call-of-duty-4)

Lol...

And tbh...I can pretty much see the trailer in my mind....

It could possibly be CGI, showing off the new '16 Critical Points' Like maybe it will show a battle going on from a First person perspective, and the guy who the view is from will shoot at an enemy and maybe take off his ear or something.

It was just like with that with the COD3 trailer, showing off the new 'Hand to Hand combat'

[curryking1]

Just wondering though, could this then be almost like partially a spiritual successor to SoF? Just not as gruesome, but still pretty gruesome. That'd be awesome if it they made it like that. The realistic violence sounds interesting, although.... obviously very violent lol.

The game has historically been rated M, so going a bit more in the direction of violence that SoF used to have, I can see COD4 having some cool stuff involved with it's 'dying' package.

P.S. For the most part I found that video from before a bit unimpressive lol.

[LiquidEagle]

That video isn't meant to be impressive, fortunately. It's obviously got a lot of work to be done and just look at how much time has passed since that was leaked... now that they're actually ready to show something soon, I think we'll see how good the game looks. Infinity Ward makes a mean shooter :-D

[Grovestreet]

That video isn't really COD4, just incase you didn't know Liquid and Curry, it got debunked a couple of weeks after it got shown.

[curryking1]

Oh, I am fully aware of that lol, or in my mind, it's very unlikely that it is lol :)

[Z]

judging by the name, will this game be set in a contemporary/future timeline?

[LaLiLuLeLo]

modern is my guess. GRAW comes to mind.

[curryking1]

I'm thinking more modern than GRAW myself. GRAW was an idea of something a couple or few years down the road IIRC.

I'm thinking more like 1995 to 2005 kind of modern from COD4.

[totobeni]

that Tom Clancy's style...even in his novels...just 2 or 4 years in the future.., maybe to stay real and still able use some fiction ..it work..

[F089/H]

OH GAWD ANOTHER ONE!!!1 Oh its not WW2...Howd they do that?

[jaxmkii]

LOL that sums up alot of the "next gen" owners.

[Grovestreet]

LOL that sums up alot of the "next gen" owners.

Exactly...

And you seem to know what Call of Duty 4 looks like, show me some screens will you?

[jaxmkii]

Exactly...

And you seem to know what Call of Duty 4 looks like, show me some screens will you?

LOL your proving my point even farther!

judging a game purely by screen shots and 45 second vids... please this obsetion with grafix is exacly what we are talking about. that is the attitude of PC gaming 5 years ago (hell PC gamers are still grafix whores) and the other "next gen"

COD 3 was a guilded toilet. pritty grafix on the same old game. im willing to bet the fourth will not change this.

[Grovestreet]

Your opinion...But the Call of Duty series has always had kickass graphics.

Cod4 wont dissapoint, plus Infinity Ward are on it, and not Treyarch, who worked on Cod3, now that was dissapointing.

[masteratt]

If Call Of Duty 4 can do to modern combat what Call Of Duty 1 did to World War games, it's hard not to be excited.

I'm with GroveStreet on this one...Well, minus caring about 'kickass graphics'.

I re-call they said something about how a face can be 'destroyed' in various ways with bullets.
Those are the kind of enhancement that excite me.
Sick, yes, but necessary part of immersion.

They need to let people know it's from the makers of original Call Of Duty and not the bore-fest that was CoD3.
lol I bet the trailer will begin with "From the makers of original Call Of Duty..."

[jaxmkii]

^ ok that would be cool!

[Grovestreet]

[LaLiLuLeLo]

:laugh: SENSELESS! :laugh:

[OG_Monkey]

So WWIII is fake or its based on whats going on in Iraq now?

[LaLiLuLeLo]

No one's calling it WWIII, because no one wants to be that country that declared war (not to mention, not declaring war but taking military action gets you around all kinds of war-time regulations) but it might as well be. Especially considering the Iranian threat, and north korea (even though they have no regular army).

[Z]

CoD3 had amazing tech behind it. it had dynamic smoke that not only light and wind interacted with, but also bullets. it had dynamic grass and the ground deformed. amazing. I don't know how much they can push it with 4, but I know they won't disappoint.
though I don't want to play retro-shooters anymore, if this one is in a more contemporary timeline, I'll definitely be checking it out. :)

[Pro A.]

Yeah, they've really run WWII into the ground the last five years or so. Its kind of like Star Wars: How many times can you really scale the wall on D-Day before it loses its effect?

[Sephiroth_VII]

I say that we should leave WW II alone for a while, then revisit it 10-15 years from now.

[GodMachine_Iridius_Dio]

That video isn't really COD4, just incase you didn't know Liquid and Curry, it got debunked a couple of weeks after it got shown.

Not quite "Debunked". The video isn't from CoD4, but it is from another game, called "Alliance: The Silent War". So there is a game to it, and the video isn't pre-rendered or anything to that effect.

Dio

[Applefiend]

Absolutely the right decision, I sir will be buying this.

If you look at it:

WW2 - 1939-1945 - 6 years
Medal of Honor - COD3 - 1999-2006 - 7 years

World war 2 on consoles lasted a year longer than the real war. :)

[ZipIt]

Trailers out!

No no no no no...Gametrailers sucks.

Here download from Playsyde. (http://www.playsyde.com/leech_3742_en.html)

Downloading now....

Edit: ......Holy sh*t! Now that was amazing! God I'm SO hyped for this right now!!!!

[n1n9tean]

Okay I watched the streaming version on Playside...Now I won't judge it based on that. But, did the faces of most characters on the battlefield seem to be the sort of slimed-over, cam-captured with no depth type of faces? If so, then I have a serious problem with that and it's unacceptable. But everything else looked okay.

.....Your answer....

Edit: Has anyone got the 'extended version' from www.Charlieoscardelta.com?

My confirmation email wont arrive.

[LiquidEagle]

Tom Clancy am cry?

Infinity Ward make some great shooters, and their move into modern warfare looks like a sight to behold! Thanks for the trailer link! :-D

[Grovestreet]

So who is the last Soldier you play as? I saw the S.A.S, soldiers that looked like American Rangers, but I didn't see the third one you play as, anyone see who it is?

[Shogun042]

my confirm email hasn't come either

[GTAce]

Hmmmhmmm nukes are in the game or at least they have something to do with the story, you can see it in the Gametrailers/Playsyde version in 1 scene.
A normal bomb cant make something like this.

The trailer was nice but im not really hyped, im looking forward to the first real gameplay stuff.

[Grovestreet]

I cant freaking wait to play as the SAS:heybaby:

[masteratt]

I can't wait to freaking play as anything :p

Has anyone got the Extended Trailer?

[Nameless]

The trailer was well done!
The game visuals are not mind blowing, but COD does a great job of providing a cinematic war experience. Imagine of this game was using the new Crytek engine... :shocked:

It's good to see COD finally moved past WWII; I'm interested to see where this title goes...

[LaLiLuLeLo]

Well. Suffice to say that looks tight as shit. The series has a good track record (the only biggest beef being they were just rehashing WWII) I might have to get it.

[sikkinixx]

That trailer is off the hook man. Looks intense too. :) Can't wait for that baby to be released.

[Z]

wow! this is the most amazing game I've seen so far! so intense I want it now.

now I can finally jump into the CoD wagon with 4. damn impressive!
I can't wait to read up on the tech behind this baby.

PS. the pick where the soldier is camouflaged and says "move" 10 seconds into the trailer made me think of SOCOM next-gen. :)

[curryking1]

Damn! I didn't think the graphics were super amazing (don't get me wrong, I think they are pretty damn solid), but the atmosphere and tension and action? Wow, that was something to be excited about!

Talk about action packed and wild, holy ***t! And the art direction is totally spot on, the whole package comes together well and looks great!

[Grovestreet]

Reminded me of BF2 that part :P Because the Snipers on BF2 look exactly like that.

Really looking forward to this though, I've watched the trailer about 6 times now.

[curryking1]

^Ya the snipers do look exactly the same lol! I was like "I know you from somehwere.... hrmmmmm..." lol :P

[Grovestreet]

So from the looks of it, you play as a American Ranger/Delta Force, British S.A.S and the Russian Spetsnaz.

[Shogun042]

dammit i missed the trailer during the draft, i was in this lifting competition and between rounds people would watch the draft. it was supposed to be 1 EST right?

isn't one of the locations in Iraq (or at least the middle east)? chances are, you can play the enemy as well.

I reiterate: I am pleasantly shocked. damn, it feels that WWII was holding these guys back. this is what I am talking about modern combat!


PS. about the guy that looks like a sniper from many games: that is expected. after all, they try to be as real as they can. and that's how snipers look; blended in their environment.

[Grovestreet]

Did anyone notice this.

This game belongs to me.

Charlie Oscar Delta (www.charlieoscardelta.com) - C.O.D = Call of Duty.
interesting. is it more than a coincidence? because if it is, this may b an indication of future branding for the series. in fact, they may make two different paths with the series- keeping one of them in the WW2 era. after all, BiA and MoH are still fighting the good fight. can't let them have all the fun.

[LaLiLuLeLo]

By all means, let them have all the fun. No more WWII games. Please God, Yahweh, god of the hebrews, if you are truly master in this world, bring an end to the WWII games.

ARRRGHGHGHGH...

Amen.

[yoshaw]

Is this ingame? Looks part CG to me.

PS: Which is a good thing I mean. Cool!

[makeitlookreal]

The trailer looks good.

[Applefiend]

I LIKE IT!

Plays like COD3 only better, not a sodding boring WW2 game.

[curryking1]

I am totally digging the Middle Eastern setting and especially the setting on that ship. Holy crap that looks nice with the sweet rain and lighting effects.

I love how he kicked down all them doors! That was hawtness.

It's defo all in-game yoshaw. It looks very much like COD3 to me technically, but from what I'm seeing what really gets my attention is the art direction, and the lighting, and the overall atmosphere. I agree that it looks tremendouslyosoly awesome though lol.

[Z]

I loved the animation on that soldier who falters and uses his gun to lift himself.

By all means, let them have all the fun.
I hate WW2 games more than you, but I was talking about the business side of it. MoH and BiA will make millions. if I were in charge of CoD, I wouldn't want to leave my share of those sales.

[yoshaw]

I personally love WWII. Huuuuge fan of Band of Brothers and Private Ryan n shit!

Point being, the late games of WWII type, especially BIA and MOH additions of late had left a sour taste in my mouth. Battlefield2 was a refresher course without a doubt. What an awesome game it was/is!!

Anyways, as long as COD goes modern. I'm all for it. So done with WWII games no doubt. But if this trailer is any sign of future COD iterations. Ohh boy I'm sooo IN !! :D

And Z, them animations. The one you described had me stunned too. Can't be in-game realtime, can it? I mean, such animations are either motion captured for a fmv sequence or you know, like an in-game cutscene w/o much.

Then again, Uncharted is having them in-game animations which are out of this world anyway >.<

Oh the animaton is no doubt realtime, a similar animation was used on COD3 when a grenade or some sort of explosion went off near the soldiers, they would lose balance and help themselves back on their feet, and no doubt those were realtime graphics aswell.

[Sephiroth_VII]

Can someone rip the extended 720p trailer? It won't allow me to download it...

[jaxmkii]

M1A1 FTW!

do we know if its BR game?

[yoshaw]

Can someone rip the extended 720p trailer? It won't allow me to download it...

Extended W00T!!??

We have another trailer of COD4 lurking on the intraweb? Where, how, when? :huh:

Link me to it please!!! And yea, I second Seph's demand. Want a rip of that new trailer too.

PS: YOSHAAAAAAAAAAAAWWW!! I have broadband back in my house!!! Just connected it 5 mins ago. :aimhappy:

[Sephiroth_VII]

If you have quicktime pro, it can be downloaded. I think it's included with mac so if anyone has it, please download the trailer!

[Shogun042]

gah i need QTPro. i may be getting it soon though.

[yoshaw]

Okay, did I miss something? Because it felt like the SAME trailer that I already saw from Playsyde. Not a single second more or less. Dun waste time uploading/downloading from Charliewhateverdouche.com

[Sephiroth_VII]

Thanks for that, Yoshaw. I was just about to order QT pro...

EDIT: Is that person in your avatar you?

[Z]

is the game definitely a FPS? because I feel it would be a waste using that camera view with everything going around you. it would be kick ass using 3rd person like GRAW.

[Grovestreet]

Nope it is an FPS, every Call of Duty trailer used camera angles like that ;)

[Fillibuster]

Thanks for that, Yoshaw. I was just about to order QT pro...

EDIT: Is that person in your avatar you?

Seph where you been man...it's RMT!!! Of course that him in that picture...he's so...:1337:

[Sephiroth_VII]

And RMT means?

[Z]

Reverse Monkey Trunks?

[Sephiroth_VII]

Good guess, but what does that have to do with Yoshaw's face...? He, wait a minute, it looks like...

[Red_Eyes]

Didn't look that good. A lot of low polygons model. Textures are pretty good though.

[yoshaw]

Good guess, but what does that have to do with Yoshaw's face...? He, wait a minute, it looks like...

LOL! You better say VAMP from MGS4 or I'm sending Sony ninjas to yer place. haha

Z, you're such an ass I swear! LOL(share your pic NOW!!)

Seph,
RMT is for Real Mug Tribe. A then silly but now serious bunch of people who dun mind showing their real life mugs on the forum. After all, we are all friends who been in talk for like what now, uhmmm, a year or more maybe. So yea, point is, I like it when I know who I'm talking to, especially my friends :cheers:

Props to Smokey, Lalilu, VGAficionado, Wounding, Venom, Fili, Omni and more for sharing their mugs with us.(sorry if I forgot a name in here).

Oh yea, and cliffbo's ass too!

B4 I make this more offtopic, my bad. Call Of Duty 4 RoX! thxl8rbbye lol

[LiquidEagle]

I personally think some of that isn't gameplay, so I'll be surprised if/when it is :-D

Even so, the style and the stuff they showed that was in-game has me completely sold. This game looks amazing and this trailer was really well-done.

[Sephiroth_VII]

I guess I'll need to get one up too, then. I don't wanna be an outsider!! (Though I've a had a pic in my profile for months, but who looks there?)

[Z]

kickass cover!

since there is a video out for this baby, I don't really care for melons. just give me the low down on any new info!

PS. I don't want to derail the thread, but can I believe the "SE RPG revealed" thing as being actually new?

[Shogun042]

what day is that rolling out? i have a GI subscripiton now.

[yoshaw]

^Shogun, keep checking GIonline, and I think GI subscribers can login with their subscription details into GI Unlimited, an online website that gets the digital version of the print mag I believe. Check GI's website and have your subscription details handy, see if you can get something for us :)

[Shogun042]

hm, the website won't accept my subscriber # for some reason. :cry2:

[Media]

New Square-Enix RPG?

Wow, I'm speechlesss!!!

You guys mite not agree. But daaaaaaaaaaymnnn, COD4 is right up there in my most wanted list, next to FFXIII, MGS4 and GT5. Gosh, Infinity Ward has done an amazing feat! They deserve attention! That trailer still gets me pumped everytime I watch it. Too Cool!

[mario25]

I would like to be excited, but I guess developers will cripple this game on PS3 and I ain't buying another 360 before they make that damn thin more reliable.

[Shogun042]

wahooo i'm in now, currently downloading that 3D screen.

[LiquidEagle]

That 3D screen is just... simply... AMAZING.

[acousticvan]

Does anyone notice that was touched up? The amount of AA is like crazy, 8x or 16x.

[GTShotoKen]

Damn, that screen is very easy on the eyes. :)

I love the intensity of the COD series and this games seems to take it to a whole new level.

I wonder how things will be on the multiplayer side? Maybe it will be more battlefield-esc?

[LaLiLuLeLo]

Now that's fuckin impressive. This'll be the first call of duty I buy.

I can't agree more. I have never seen a trailer so much since LPB and Home. and before that, it was games like MGS4 and FF13 that got me salivating in front of their trailers. this is insane! :buldge:

[Shogun042]

that 3D screen made me say damn

[Red]

Now that's fuckin impressive. This'll be the first call of duty I buy.

Better not. The ps3 version will be shitty because they can't handle the ps3.

[LaLiLuLeLo]

If I do buy it WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO. HUH? WHAT YOU GONNA DO??
Let's wait for the reviews and general sense of how good the game is to come in before we throw in the towel for a brand new game.

[yoshaw]

Better not. The ps3 version will be shitty because they can't handle the ps3.

That's sarcasm Red, right? But then again, serves no purpose shooting it out there/here/wherever! You're gonna buy a single copy of this game anyway. Whether that be for MS' or Sony's console. Or not, I reckon in your case, as hinted in the quote above.

But assuming things before there aren't even previews trickling over the web for a PS3 version. Rather too soon to jump the gun I'd say. No hard feelings. :cheers:

[LiquidEagle]

Infinity Ward won't let us PS3 owners down :)

[Z]

simple: if they mess the PS3 version, they'll mess with their sales.

[mario25]

I'm with red: developers will find a way to screw the ps3 version, and that pisses me off because I only have a ps3.......

Come to think of it, I don't even like COD games

[Z]

messing with the PS3 version from some publishers is only an initital issue. it would be the same for X2 versions if PS3 and X2 swapped launches. this happens with every generation when you have a brand new system that just launched compared to another with a year or more on the market. did you forget the shitty (and I mean extremely shitty in every way) jobs some of these people did on the first X2 games? some games were literally indistinguishable from their Box/PS2 versions AND they played/performed worse! and some were from big ass publishers to boot.

this is not an excuse, but an explanation. some are slower than others. some hit the ground running and some slam face first. vote with your wallet people!

[JosVerstappen]

The trialer has CG, cutscenes and scripted written all over it. If this was in-game footage, they are taking wargames to a truly next level. But since it comes out so shortly after their previous efforts, I don't expect anything like this from a company that is multiplat and didn't even come close to this quality with their CoD3 game. Maybe BIA will come close to this, maybe Killzone, but CoD nah, I for one am not a believer.

For one Treyarch made COD3, a different developer.

Second, Infinity Ward have been working on COD4 for 2 years.

And third....That was all In-engine stuff, Infinity Ward have never used CG for their trailers.

[JosVerstappen]

That seems to be the trend nowadays eh. Calling it in-engine, throwing words like 'realtime' along, thereby suggesting that this will be the kind of thing a player can expect to see during gameplay. In-game and in-engine, are often mixed up.

Believe what you want, I'm not buying it. A scripted gfx-trailer like this done with the game-engine, without the AI and all the game-aspects running in the background, will always look much better than gameplay if they put some effort into it. Better textures, better animation, better physics, cool camera angles, cinematic choices of scenes, no jerky control-involvement of players. It's the same with MGS's cutscenes, always done with the game-engine, but looking much better in terms of animation and texturing in these scenes.

If this is the level of gameplay they can achieve, I take my hat off.

I mean really in-game with in-game view, HUD etc.

EDIT: OOps there is one lol. But i want more and bigger ones. :-p

CoD4 will look like that in-game. Infinity Ward doesn't mess around at all, and they're a very solid developer. Thanks for those, Grove, but I've had that magazine for a good week & a half now :-p

Every Screen on these pages is of in-engine gameplay running on the Xbox 360 development kits.

Yes...they are In-engine.

[GTAce]

I didnt mean the graphics itself.
Games always look better with cinematic cams etc. i want some good screens in the ego view with HUD and stuff like that.
That you can see it how it looks when you play it.

Btw. in-engine is not in-game.^^

I know...But In-engine and In-game look the same.

Oh and every Call of Duty looks and plays exactly like the 'Cinematic Cams' on the trailers, the soldier movements, sounds, graphics are all the same, always have been.

[GTAce]

Yeah but there are things like weapon models, how the weapon reacts when you shoot, hows the cross hair, hows it made when you aim with the weapons/scopes etc. thats just what i want to see. I dont say the graphics are better on these shots then the full game but i cant "feel" how the gameplay is on those screens thats all.^^

[LiquidEagle]

Gameplay will definitely be sweet to check out. So far I'm totally digging the vibe they're making in this game :)

Yeah i have the mag...graphics look really nice. The direction they're going is very interesting as well, and the fact that this is the real next-gen COD...

But, I hope they focus the attention equally between all the consoles, I don't what to have the inferior version with no online play this time.

I haven't played any of these games to be honest, simply because the PC version was always considered the best. This will probably be my first Call of Duty game if the PS3 version gets the same score as PC/X360...

It's being released on the PC as well since it's made by Infinity Ward.

Hm... at least my new PC can run it^^

But I am not much of a FPS gamer... Maybe on every odd year. The last few FPS I played more than an hour where Doom 3 and Half Life 2... And those games were released more than 3 years ago.

Maybe I'll pick up Killzone, if the storytelling is good. And to add to that... I am bored by WWII shooters. I want a WWII shooter were I can play the story mode on the german side^^

But Call of Duty 4 is set in modern day (have you looked at any of the press info or media on it yet). :lol:

The Infinity Ward team (original CoD team) only did two WWII games (both were amazing and were benchmarks for the genre), but they are completely focused on modern warfare now.

Have you watched the HD trailer yet? It's awesome.

[LiquidEagle]

Between this game and HAZE I'll have my FPS plate full and I'll be 100% content. Even one of these games would be enough for me!

[Z]

I would much rather a 3rd person camera as I feel so much would go unnoticed with a 1st person camera. that and team games and tactical games feel much better and coherent using 3rd person. GRAW2 is a perfect example of what I am talking about.

having said that, damn, I'll be getting this baby no matter what camera angle they use. it is just that good looking!

[GTShotoKen]

CoD is extremely fast paced and visceral. The intensity level they want in-game can only be achieve through a first person view imo. No scene looks more dramatic than when experienced through your eyes.

Take Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway for instance, those intense scenes where you get blown back onto the ground in first person and pick yourself up (it wouldn't be nearly as effective in third-person). Another HUGE example is Killzone, the first-person nature of the game made reloads, effects, and the tactical firefights much more engaging and visceral.

I do agree that a pure tactical game has it's advantages when played in third-person, but games like CoD and Half-life are all about emotion, experience, and the thrill of the moment. They really want to put you in the moment

[Segitz]

Yeah.

Thing is, in real live (I have been to the Bundeswehr for 9 months after school) you walk around and you look around. You have 2 eyes, both of which have a FOV of ~135° (~200° horizontal view). In FPS, your FOV is so limited, that most of the action goes unnoticed. Games like Max Payne (loved those) or even GTA would just suck as an FPS. Thats why I would like to try Gears of War and I hope, Killzone PS3 at least offers a TPS view (I am inclined to try it, although I am no FPS gamer at all).

In real life shooting an assault rifle is not looking thru the optics and shoot^^ It is much more than that, and I dont know, most games just dont "emulate" this very good. Imho, FPS wont be any good (for me), till we have real 3D (head mounted display sort of) which also tracks your head movement.

[curryking1]

I dunno, some games I find are just made to be used with FPS cameras and others to use TPS. But I can understand some getting bored with FPS cameras, I guess luckily for me I'm bored of neither lol.

For stuff like Halo or... now Halo 2 (I can finally play it!!! XD).. the FPS is probably better than TPS, it's obviously made for it, but again, definitely understandable that one just doesn't like the FPS view or is bored of it.

I personally want KZ to be all FPS b/c I'm not having any trouble with FPS yet. And good point Segitz, there's more opportunity to miss action with a camera angle right in the guys face, yet also the FPS camera can do things TPS can't like put you 'right in the guys shoes' or whatever.

I duno, I guess I'm just glad I'm not bored or disappointed with either camera lol, and I'm almost glad that I don't have the real life experience to compare to as maybe it'd detract from all my FPS experiences lol.

Also, interesting input on the realism of shooting a rifle Segitz. I wonder, did you play ArmA - Assault? I wonder what you would think of that control style for the FPS (it has some interesting elements, the head doesn't move completely rigidly with the gun you are holding, far from it actually lol), is that more realistic, or how close is it if it's approaching the realism?

P.S. Yes, Max Payne is a freaking awesome game lol.

[Segitz]

Na, didnt play it yet... wanted to test the demo, but never got to it.

Operation Flashpoint already did a good job at it, but as its not mainstream enough, it is not a widespread genre.

Also Hidden & Dangerous did this well (finished both games, although they are freakishly hard if done right (stealth approach)).

[curryking1]

That's cool. I guess that would make ArmA have realistic stuff too also lol, it is the sequel to OpFlash lol.

ArmA did implement the FPS thing in a very interesting way I thought too, I haven't played it much, but it certainly seemed like it was far more like how soldiers would be holding their guns in real life.

I didn't play ArmA much because I got my butt whooped... real war is very, very hard, you're definitely right lol.. :(

[GTAce]

Yeah ArmA is teh awesomenesse.
Everyone who liked OF and has a good PC should buy ArmA.

[Segitz]

Thats why I brought up OpFor!

Maybe my rental store has it up for grabs... I have no University come next week :D

tue; for fast pace action, a FP Camera would be an ecellent choice- even though your field of vision would be very narrow. the sense of you 'being there' using that perspective would compencate for that.

and that is why I said 'for tactical games'. in those, nothing beats a 3rd person camera. they go further with bigger scope games like RTSs.

Yeah ArmA is teh awesomenesse.

StarForce doesn't even function on vista so how is that going to work out?

I already didn't care much for Splinter Cell and the pain was only worsened by StarForce on the PC.

There was this one moment in the first person gameplay sequence where the weapon is tucked away whilst running and then brought back up to shoot. Reminded me of the infamous killzone first person animation.

I believe Infinity Ward have been paying close attention to that particular animation aspect ... n it shows.

Damn, am I the only one that got the Killzone footage vibe from that??! Freakin' awesome stuff, explosions weren't as jaw-dropping and neither the animations, but If Killzone is anything like that-Sheesh, good times for FPS fans...

Definitely up there with Uncharted and Ratchet in the Eye Candy department. Impressive...Looks better than any FPS I've seen to date. I'm hoping they don't dick the PS3 version--but I doubt they will, the first one had some very nice Sixaxis additions and this is the original team coming back for COD4..

Looks like another must-buy...

btw-they took the Killzone run, and it looks AWESOME!! can't tell if they use as much motion blur as GG though..

[Z]

now that's what I'm talking about! and yes, Killzone immediately popped to my mind. I love the atmosphere and how everything seems to be moving around you. this is definitely one of the biggest FPS of the holiday.

I wouldn't say COD4 looks better than Unreal though, just equally as impressive...

[yoshaw]

I wouldn't say COD4 looks better than Unreal though, just equally as impressive...

I'd reckon Unreal's frames per second would crawl to a halt if having COD4 like chaos rendered onscreen. Unreal can't handle amazing shit like COD man. We both know it(muhahaaha :evillaugh yoshaw am good at enforcing his beliefs unto others)

[OmniCloud]

Overall, I agree with both your comments... And I'd much rather play this than Unreal as well...

But just having two HDTV's side by side and some1 walking pass, I don't think it would be an overwhelming amount of people screaming COD4. It doesn't look significantly better than Gears either...

However, it is far more technically impressive and still has months to go. But I seriously doubt it's just going to be a night a day difference in the eye candy. These next-gen games are about subtle effects and tricks like animations, motion blur, amazing scope, and AI-stuff you have to play the game or at least watch for a while to appreciate.

But yeah-best FPS I've seen this year including Cyrsis. Crysis looks awesome, but it seems like a showcase for too much technology. Games looks lifeless and barren to me with no type of style.) I'm still Intrigued with Haze's storyline though, so I'll have to choose my FPS wisely this year. Only planning on picking up 2!

the footage reminds me of some of those massive battles in Resistance single player. when you see gigantic battles and all sorts of things going on at once that make you feel like you're in a warzone, that's what i call nexgen. and COD4 is it.

looking at this i'm curious to see what Killzone will look like. this has destructible environments like BIA: HH - did anyone else see the enemy killed after the player shot him through a wall?

[OmniCloud]

YES YES WE saw it!!! lol...

The cracks and smoke/dust effects from the wall was freakin' awesome!!!

[Grovestreet]

The animation is phenomenal... the lighting is extremely accurate, the art direction is great, and both the geometric meshes and textures are *far* more detailed than in previous Call of Duty's.

I'll be playing this game on day one.

Seeing the compressed alpha trailer running at 30fps is one thing... playing the FINAL game running at 60fps on my HDTV will be truly spectacular... I can't wait.

[curryking1]

That was ***king the best damn ***t ever! NICE! Lighting, particles, animation, you name it! Grade A score all over man! Damn!

[GTShotoKen]

This is one of the best games visually that I have ever seen!!! The guys at Infinity Ward know how to wow us every time.

I just wish I had a beefy PC to play it on. I would love to play this game with everything maxed out at an insanely high resolution.

[Nameless]

This game makes the infamous Killzone footage seem much more achievable...
I'm actually interested in this title and I'm tired of 1st person shooters so that's a huge statement...

[curryking1]

Man, I gotta say it again.. I just want to paste a big like WTF stamp on that video or something. That ***t is just amazing!

This is my post on TXB lol :P

I get excited a lot sometimes

But I really think it looks amazing lol. I'm not calling it totally like matching some magic CGI film lol, but it's got a lot of like features that made that video what it was I thought. I dunno, it's just bizarre how the similarities work, because this COD4 is totally like.. frigging together you know? It's wicked, everything looked amazing, animation, particles, the pace, the lighting, and the gun model is amazing.

Seriously, it's like they looked at that CGI, said 'If this CGI was real, what would make it so compelling?' and then they did their best to take like that movie and incorporate that frantic pace, that crazy cool sprint, those animations as much as they could, and put them in a game that's actually running as best they can. And the product looks amazing, seriously, it's just freaking awesome looking! Everything was just so smooth, fluid, I dunno, it just meshed together so well!

That's seriously what I was dreaming of for a next gen shooter, that is SICK!

P.S. Apparently this is a 800MB version of the trailer, courtesy NeoNemesis on TXB.

*whoops forgot link lol* http://www.charlieoscardelta.com/sitedata/fanbase/cod4/v2/ModernWarfare_BogRescue_PreAlphaHD_ESRB.zip

[yoshaw]

800 MB uncompressed? Meaning exactly how we'd be seeing it on our TV's if it were playing in a console. Cool! Lemme grab my popcorn.

[curryking1]

O ya, it's really sharp. I dunno about uncompressed or compressed, but it's really freaking good quality video of it.

[GTShotoKen]

Damn, they really want to show how pretty this game's gonna look.

I hope that they program in rumble hooks into the PS3 version. I would love for this game to support force feedback when the actual force feedback controllers become available. An intense game like this would really benefit from it all though it doesn't need it.

[Smokey]

im lazy.. i know, but when can i stick this in my ps3??

[Nameless]

^ If you are using a media server with transcoding enabled yes...
The alternative is converting the video before playing on the PS3.
*.mov is not supported for video playback on the PS3.*

sorry nameless i didnt explain myself :( i mean the game itself.. sorry again

[tolkyn]

this new footage reminds me a lot of the fps-part in the first MGS4 trailer shown at TGS05. The similarities between the guns are striking.

[Z]

Post#174 :wave:


PS: My only gripe with COD4. Guns sound like pop tarts!! :(

gun sounds were horrible. I was hoping that was because the video had bad audio. it is extremely important for me in a FPS that the guns are introduced properly. I want BANG!. I want recoil. I want to feel the bullet ripping apart someone.
another thing I didn't like about the trailer is the running of your character. he feels he is sliding on soap and his gun barely moves. when he dashes, that looks good. but I don't want to 'float' through the entire game.

so those are the only two complaints I have from the demo: your running and gun effects. other than that, this was spectacular.

Nice version of the gameplay footage that plays on your PS3:

http://www.playsyde.com/leech_3987_en.html

Clearly PS3, you can see "press x" and stuff. Also 60 fps. hubba hubba. Smooth as silk.

As they said in the 90s, swwwwiiiiing! Rather fantastic. Definite pre order. Even makes Resistance look like poo.

Lighting Effects HD Interview, with some different footage at the beginning, but same gameplay video after.


***k! Scripted animations and just so many more animations and amazing animations are wicked! Look how good that looks, and see how much animation totally took this thing to a new level, just wow. I'm imagining that without good animation, and I imagine something far less exciting than what I see in the gameplay trailer.

[Epix]

Can anyone MegaUpload some of these vids?

[Applefiend]

It is worth pointing out the only thing that stopped the PS3 version of COD3 being the best version was the lack of 60fps and voice chat... The game had(and still has) the best use of sixaxis ever.

Nothing stopping COD4 on PS3. :)

[warmachine]

Isn't the X button shaped/coloured like the one from the XBox controller? :(

Sorry to break it to you, but thats the 360 version, 360 has an 'X' button, and also the part when the player goes near the wrecked cars, it says press 'A' to jump over them.

[Applefiend]

it is? oh. bum. :)

Never post first thing in the morning.

Oh well that really is a great looking 360 game. :/

[yoshaw]

Guys, it's a multiplatform game. Lets just take that in for once n stop talkin which platform looks better? thanks.

I saw the 60fps trailer n it's a treat for the eyes. If the final game delivers that much mayhem at a consistent smoothness that is 60frames. The benchmark set by COD4 will only bring us more n more competitive developer response. And then there was one ... killzone. lol I kid. COD4 takes the cake for now!

new info from PSM: (http://gameplanets.blogspot.com/2007/06/new-cod-4-details.html)
* The game will run at 60 FPS
* Certain types of ammo can go thought walls
* You can get bling for you weapons, like a golden AK-47
* The game will have a combo system, as you do certain things, you get rewards such as a minimap

[Z]
