What the FUCK did they mean by this game. What was it even about.
>>738239381What was any CoD game about? You go in and shoot the bad guys.
allegory for Israel vs Iran.
>game is set in the future>but is not as cool as Battlefield 2142
>>738239381Pew pew pew IN SPACE
The motif of the story was sacrifice. The first level has the villain say you will lose because you don't have the will to do what it takes (then he caps one of his own men to illustrate the point). 2nd level has a bunch of martians perform a suicidal mission to enable a blitz rush on earth. From there to the end the player character achieves a number of successes but is occasionally set back by being unable to sacrifice his men. Then the last level is has him systematically sacrifice each of his crew and then himself to buttfuck the martians.
The entire premise of the game is delusional because space is fake and gay. Simple as.
>>738239381Gundam but without the mobile suits. Probably the last COD campaign I genuinely enjoyed.
>CoD finally makes a actual sci-fi entry with an interesting setting>people bitch and moan for it to go back to modern warfareexplain this
>>738240486>old engine>copy paste cod gameif they wanted to make a good game they would use new engine and dev'ed for at least 3 years before releasing it
>>738239381It had some good ideas, but the plot was too rushed. Instead of more MW and BO, a trilogy remake of IW would be nice
I liked their scifi games settings.Gameplay is aids though. Would prefer an actual tactics game.
>sees this game after looking at Black Cocks 7
>>738240486It's almost like Advanced Warfare and Black Ops 3 were released 2 consecutive years before it.
>>738242451>but the plot was too rushedThe only thing I thought was weird was that there was a 2nd Earth level where Martians are everywhere, despite the fact that our last Earth mission had the martian fleet incure significant losses and were forced to retreat. The orbital defense cannons were reactivated. This would leave any Martians still on earth surrounded by billions of angry earth forces. And then that mission ends with all the defense cannons knocked out by hand placed bombs. Why were none of those removed by earth forces over the days inbetween the 2 earth levels? Made no sense.
>>738240486>previous future cod were dogshit>only way to get remaster of a beloved entry is in a bundle with it>battlefield does something unique for AAA the same yearit was multiple factors
>>738242923Yes, and?Both of those games are closer to Modern Warfare or even the WW2 era games then they are to Infinite Warfare's setting
>>738243345see>>738243810The previous "future cod" games are not actually futuristic the same way Infinite Warfare is. It shouldn't be counted gainst it
>>738243810Did IW play any different from BO3?
>>738239775Goated campaign
>>738244035Yes, child. IW's multiplayer had a fast TTK compared to BO3, and the weapons weren't as satisfying
>>738244164I dunno, I looked at it and it just looked like BO3 with some space setting. A lot of people got the same impression when they revealed it.It's completely reasonable to see why people didn't want it.
>>738244345Who even played BO3? I heard it was shit because the story is just a dream.
>>738244818>Who even played BO3?Nigga, you're aware this is the best selling COD ever?Treyarch was goated after BO1 and BO2.
>>738244859I just remember it being described as on the same level as Ghosts.
>>738244818Dumbass, the campaign was trash but the multiplayer and zonbies were awesome
>>738244913I mean yeah, it's shit. But it still sold so fucking well because of how much people liked BO1 and BO2. And it got zombies with DLCs with like every zombie map
>>738244913SP only here, Ghosts was fine. Fish AI and a dog, come on.
It's the best CODHas good design, is the future, has good space fighter jet combat.The best thing is the mission hub. So you can do the missions you want to. There is enough of them.It is a little corridoory sometimes.Good villains. As usual your side are all American filth though.
>>738239381>earth colonize mars>mars becomes a super chud colony of expansionist tyranny>earth does nothing about it for... reasons>super chud mars declared independence and starts a war to conquer earth>Jon Snow leads the mars military for... reasons
>>738239381Well, it was Mass Effect with Edge of Tomorrow but they put on top of that strange drama about self-sacrifice and even more strange 24h time limit
>>738239381It's up there in top 3 COD campaigns
>Old enough to remember Advanced Warfare getting raped critically>Old enough to remember Infinite Warfare getting raped critically>See yt vids and shorts getting nostalgic and misty-eyed over both
>>738239381One of the main writers of the game also played the protagonist of the campaign, where he is the top guy, cant do wrong and he is always good and reasonable, thats a reason why the campaign is very mediocre, didnt play multiplayer, they had the balls to do their own wacky thing with zombies and I respect them for it.
>>738247810I pirated CoD only for the campaign, I don't care about your multiplayer drama
>>738247810>Old enough to remember Infinite Warfare getting raped criticallyI actually don't remember this, I remember it getting a lot of slack for trying to shake up the formula after Ghosts got reamed for being shit. My opinion on AW has actually soured over time since Sledgehammer has proven they got lucky with the movement system and are complete shit at everything else
>>738239381Imagine the time when people complained that this was the worst cod yet.
>>738243028The bad guys are generic bad guys, Jon Snow is totally wasted as character, the protag becomes ship captain too soon and the allies are generic boring allies and die to fast to make an impact. I believe three games to flesh everything could do wonders for the plot
i want salter
>>738249396Well that's not really true. Jon Snow did what he could. I enjoyed knifing him because he was such a cunt. The protag is the golden boy of the highest ranking earth officer who survived the initial attack, so of course he's the captain now. The allies include that memorable robot, the Ibis Edema guy who was a black british marine that had a mini arc with the robot, that old woman, the nerdy pilot and the young woman who survives. The robot's destruction was quite drawn out, and I still remember the old woman getting stuck in the pod by the enemy robot who woke up.The campaign takes you from pluto to mercury, and doesn't get bogged down. My only grip is the plot hole of how there were so many martians still active in earth's capital, several days after they'd been cut off.
