I have 2 problems with this Advanced Warfare game. This first problem being that with just the trailer alone, it looks too much like Titanfall. You see soldiers hoping around with jetpack like uniforms and using weapons that are too futuristic.
We won't know how the game is until we play it or see it in action. However, like I mentioned in another thread, we don't expect absolute realism, but we expect CoD's relative realism. What distinguishes CoD from other similar titles is that CoD has so far been an ground combat game, non-fantasy, over-the-top mechanics/wepaons/perks. I can probably believe that soldiers in combat today might be using a target finder. But I can't imagine, without some futuristic fantasy, that they're boosting themselves around the combat field with a jet pack.
Take a step back and picture how ridiculous this is. I just LOLed in my own head picturing it.
These games are starting to get too futuristic.
What you said really is what it all boils down to: trying to forever top the competition with more outrageous ideas. Gotta make the game look cool for the little kiddies.
That said, it is what it is. But, like it has already happend with Ghosts in a big way, the discerning and intelligent consumer will just say "no thanks."
Hopefully what some of you are saying about 3RC is true. And we'll get a return to quintessential CoD gameplay as some point.
