Activision Chief Explains What Makes Call Of Duty Different This Year

Activision chief executive Eric Hirshberg has explained during a conference call what will make this year’s Call of Duty stand out from previous iterations. Hirshberg explained that Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is the first in the series to benefit from a three-year development cycle. This has enabled the team to do more “do more experimentation, iteration, and creative thinking.”

Hirshberg explained that the team have altered gameplay elements with the inclusion of exoskeleton armour, which will enable the player to have more strength and also use the Titanfall inspired rocket boost. He concluded by saying that the developers have put more emphasis on story and character. The inclusion of actor Kevin Spacey reinforces this and Hisberg says that his part in the franchise is “soon to be iconic.”

    1. By “haters” you mean smarter human beings or ex-COD drones who now realize COD is a repetitive POS franchise?

      Then you’re right. “Haters” are coming..to make sense out of you idiots from becoming more idiotic to waste another $200 for a DLC-like game for the tenth time in a row.

    1. Its the same shit bro. I recommend not wasting time on this one if you already played Titanfall or Crysis or if you have Gamefly or buy a preowned game for a couple of days before returning, then be my guess.

  1. doubt it.

    those new stuff on characters and story are STANDARD additions to ANY new game.

    I hate you, activision.
    don’t even like ur name.

  2. It needs to come to Wii U with all of the DLC. If it does, then It’ll be the first CoD I’ve spent money on. Unless I get Ghosts before it, which I probably might…

    1. Ghosts is short, and not as good as BLOPS2, but the “Dog” dynamic is actually VERY fun.

      I’d love a COD with almost exclusive dog-game play… I know how it sounds, but it’s really cool, especially if you are like me, and view dogs as more “people” than actual “people.”

        1. Tell me about it. Someone liking Ghosts because you can play a dog..for only two short 5 miniute missions for 43 seconds?

          People today are fucking primitive.

      1. …you seriously defending Ghosts because of a Dog mechanic. ..the same fucking mechanic we’ve seen in COD since COD4..a 2007 game. And if you’re referring about the only two short missions using a dog through a computer feed to rip throats, then your argument or praise is beyond invalid.

        I rather play a Transformer dog that can do more than just sliding throats and bark to distract dumbass militia or better yet, a fucking mini tank drone that shoots 20 bullets and 3 noob tubes per second.

            1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

              It was more of a FPS/FPA so it doesn’t count…

              I meant more in the lines of Destiny with online multiplayer…

    1. Halo is far better than this repetitive garbage. Trust me. COD is as comparable as EA Sports and Kinect games: All fucking worthless shovelware that just don’t know when to quit when its clearly losing.

  3. I will revel in the moment when Call of Duty finally dies, was done with this game years and years ago. Utterly amazing seeing anyone support this game still but a ton of people are pretty damn stupid, so I guess it isn’t too surprising.

    1. I only purchased black ops 2 and modern warfare. The only good games in the series.
      Everything else well fuck everything else. Will never get another experience like that. An all nighter with friends.

    2. After seeing that online clusterfuck that is MW3 and the half-assed Ghosts, there’s no reason for COD to continue to exist anymore especially since Destiny is coming.

      1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

        And I’m sure Destiny will be a good game but then it will be just as milked and fall into the garbage category like CoD…

        1. Knowing Bungie, they won’t milk that shit…but then again..there’s Halo Wars, ODST or whatever the hell it is and Reach…

          Nah. I’m sure they won’t milk or rush Destiny every year like EA with its own games and Activision whoring COD to death and afterlife.

          1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

            But then others will take over the franchise and create Spin-Offs, 18 sequels with little differences and worst of all, “Halo Television series”…

  4. Just wait for next year when Black ops 3 comes out. It will be the best call of duty because of treyarch studios.

  5. Changes seem to include the title and shaders and nothing else. Ship it and call it another undeserved million-seller for the intellectually undemanding.

  6. They always speak of this same old weak BS over the past 5 years as a pathetic attempt to save its repetitive garbage from losing more sales and fans every passing year.

    Unfortunately for their stupid asses, that crap of a PR stunt isn’t working anymore. COD is dying and there’s no way to save it or even “change” enough to fool people except the same fanboy idiots to waste hundreds of dollars on an add-on DLC franchise.

    I don’t care if this Titanfall/Crysis or an early Black Ops 3 ripoff skips Wii U or not. This franchise deserves to die since Activision is clearly beyond fucking greedy to give this series a 3-5 years break it needs to revigorate itself and be original again.

      1. Still failed to answer to question. Just as I thought. Still talking out of your ass without back up.

      1. In their next COD spam, they’re gonna hire Bruce Willis or even Andrew Garfield to make the next game sound exciting and original.

        I’m gonna fucking barf.

        1. Nintendo Commander Quadraxis

          I already barfed once I heard about MW3…

          I probably will get the CoD flu soon…

          1. Oh MW3 was a fucking mess and I regret everyday wasting $63 on that glorified polished turd of a video game.

            Black Ops 2 however tried to redeem that mistake and while I respect Treyarch for trying, it fell short because of that fucking Target Finder attachment being noob’s newest favorite toy of cheap gameplay and wins since noobtubing with One Man Army perk from MW2. What’s worse than being spawn killed or noobtubed from across the map? Being constantly sprayed at by a fucking LMG with Target Finder: Lowest and cheapest way to cheat a win.

  7. Ps: post about non related nintendo Call of Duty news shouldn’t get very many replies

    I for one will no longer be clicking anything cod because im not a nig ger

  8. What he meant to say was:”It’s the same old crap, but with more famous actors in it. Oh and better graphics, obviously”.

  9. What will make this COD stand out from the others: It will be the shittiest COD so far, if that feat is even possible lol.

    1. If the franchise haven’t turned into such an unoriginal annual spam of a milked-to-death series that only the biggest underaged sore losers play by cheaply camping in corners spraying blindly all day, then nobody wouldn’t be giving this game such a hard time.

      But thanks to Activision being a greedy fuck over it treating COD its biggest whore and not bothering to allow the studios & series to take a break to recuperate and fix the game, there’s no point of return left for this series other then its eventual death and I hope it happens very, VERY soon.
