totally uninspired and nothing spectacular

 

[Anon67]

Looks cool. I might buy.

What's up with people and the marketing? Jeez some of you people...lol

 

[shungokusatsu]

Eurogamer said they had the game running on XB1/PC/PS4 to show off all the versions... so uhh...

Where, I'm not seeing it in their preview.

 

[Obliterator]

Man rewatching the trailer again I'm pretty damn hyped. The gameplay looks sooo good and better than AW imo.

Only thing I wish is the graphics were nicer. I do think AW had better graphics

 

[biteren]

Just no AW jump packs please. just added way too much randomness to the game. I would get motion sickness trying to play that game.

If it's titanfall type parkour then its fine

watch this, it should answer all your AW questions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgNAusqJsxM

 

[Goldenmoney]

omg guys did you hear that? the lyrics feature the word "black" damn we gotta use that song for our new trailer, it's going to be great.

Black ops 4 will have the song black betty.

 

[Jarrod38]

Activision: Okay guys we need a new Cod. Any ideas
Treyarch: Let's mix Destiny + Deus Ex + Titanfall
Activision: But we should announce Season pass before the reveal trailer

Nah they get their ideas by throwing the ideas in a hat and the ones they pull out they put in the game.

 

[gigantor21]

A lot of PS4's and Xbox 1's will be sold this holiday

And people were saying it was crazy to think that Activision would go current-gen only with COD this year.

Gen 8 hardware sales are going to be insane this holiday season.

Its been confirmed no exo suit jump

 

[B.O.O.M]

Gameplay looks good but that trailer was a mess...it lacked focus I felt

 

[Welfare]

HOLY SHIT

I'm hyped for this. Also wall running. IN

 

[constantstatic]

The fact that people are saying "Same game as AW" or that they are copying Titanfall shows how little they pay attention to CoD.
Graphically I think it does look similar to AW, but gameplay wise it looks completely different.
Also just because it has wall running doesn't mean it's copying Titanfall. Lol.

they strait copied the titanfall wall running (look at the comparison gifs) and I have played 10 days of AW so far and probably longer in titanfall. How is this not copying titanfall's movement system? its also momentum based just like titanfall.

There is jumping but it's a lot slower. There is wall running but, once again, it's a lot slower (and you can't keep doing it).

If modern warfare is the base for classic movement and titanfall and aw are the outlier of advanced movement then black ops 3 is somewhere in the middle.

Is it just me or does this look worse graphically than the last years CoD game?

Wouldn't surprise me at all. Sledgehammer is a new team.

 

[Nabs]

Whew. I like what I'm hearing about Multiplayer.

 

[Dragonborn]

Looked pretty damn great actually. Looking forward to this one

 

[biteren]

i suppose its bad, it diddnt really tell me what going on in the game

 

[GenericUser]

I hate double jumps, I hate robots, I hate parcour, I already hate this game and I've not played it one minute!

This game will only accelerate the downfall of Call of Duty.

 

[Banjo-Kazooie]

I've landed in some warped place where people care more about who has marketing than the game itself. Discuss the trailer and impressions instead of a marketing campign maybe?

Looked pretty good though to me, bring on some Zombies!

 

[Gold_Loot]

The replies in thread are the Exact reason publishers use cg and bullshot trailers.

Did everyone forget that this game is a good 7 months from release?

 

[a916]

Where, I'm not seeing it in their preview.

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-04-26-call-of-duty-black-ops-3-pc-requirements-revealed

At the game's full reveal in Santa Monica, Black Ops 3 was shown running on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC - with the latter being shown off with full 4k support.

 

[Magwik]

I am excited for the specialist class that has the compound bow
Bows always get me hyped

 

[manny10032]

Every Youtuber that got the chance to play it say the movement is not even close to AW

 

[djshauny]

The night is still young.

Quite excited about this all, personally

So they will be showing more?

 

[Alienous]

I hate double jumps, I hate robots, I hate parcour, I already hate this game and I've not played it one minute!

This game will only accelerate the downfall of Call of Duty.

It doesn't have a double jump. It has a jetpack.

You can see it at 1:13 in the trailer.

 

[The Lone Courier]

Looks fun

 

[Linkhero1]

Watched Drift0r's impression. I'm still very weary until I see some MP gameplay.

 

[FollowTheWind]

I mean AW fine, exo suits taking some inspiration from Titanfall, understandable many games are doing that. But this is getting ridiculous, wall running now? How is this even acceptable in their minds.

I may be wrong, but seriously... So Titanfall brings all the changes and this just comes along swoops it up and takes the $$$. Honestly feel sorry for Respawn, left COD, to still help COD.

And this is coming from someone who loved AW.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Finished Drift0r's video. He said that Treyarch made a point that the boosting system in BO3 isn't like AW. A major difference is that AW made your character move really fast in whichever direction you boosted, while BO3's feels like more of a nudge. Drift0r says the speed of everything is still very CoD and you won't see people zipping around the map like in Titanfall or AW.

 

[Green Yoshi]

Sure looks like cross-gen visually.

I wonder if the 360-version is done by High Moon Studios again or by Treyarch itself.

 

[thejpfin]

- Infinite sprinting. No perk needed, all characters can sprint for as long as you want

Finally. In previous cods you can only run few meters before your character needs to take a breath. You are a super soldier, yet you can barely run lol.
Good thing treyarch fixed it.

 

[Obliterator]

Is it confirmed we are getting a multiplayer stream today? I need to see that!

 

[TheMAK]

Looks like total ass graphically... doesn't even seem to be using the same engine as AW..no PBR...low poly last gen assets, shitty lighting, dodgy animation... Titanfall sure did "inspire" a lot of games lately...

No wonder MS or Sony aren't co-marketing it..it looks like a total mess..

 

[Clairvoyance]

Since it seems like no one is watching the videos of the opinions linked earlier, I'll post some of what was said.

-Slower movement speed than AW, especially in the air.
-Air dashing and wall running are not ideal for combat. Mostly used strictly for traversal.
-Water combat is "seamless".
-Much more ground based than AW.
-Wall running is stricter and less abundant than Titanfall. You won't be bouncing from wall to wall with little loss of momentum like in Titanfall.

 

[Brohenheim]

So, does everyone pick a specialist class before every match?

 

[MrRoflWaffles]

So they will be showing more?

Was referring to the Race, honestly don't know what else might or might not be coming - I promise

If you think Titan Fall was the first game to ever feature wall running, I have a bridge to sell you.

 

[BeEatNU]

Thread seems split lol

 

[a916]

Don't they say this with every game? Apparently minimally changing an existing engine is the same as building an entirely new one these days.

Well, I hate to break it to you, but most game engines run that way... even the heavily praised UE4.

 

[Tapejara]

The trailer was definitely all over the place. I get that they wanted to show off the abilities, but I think I would have preferred the traditional "voice over and campaign footage trailer."

 

[Dylan Sexbang]

Yaaaaas will buy day one. Wish I could preorder it digitally, I'll just preorder on Amazon and cancel when I get beta access. Can't wait, glad battlefront looks to be disappointment so I only have to worry about Halo competing.

And people need to sod off with the marketing talk who cares?!

That's a relief. I was really panicking that BO3 would be a complete departure from the other 2.

As long as no one has to wait for DLC it's all good.

 

[K.Sabot]

Graphically this kinda looks bums

 

[TheWorthyEdge]

Damn, some of you guys are salty af. This looks fantastic and though there may be some heavy influences from AW, Titanfall, or Destiny it looks pretty different to me. Plus its Treyarch so I mean its going to be fantastic. I see why some of you guys are saying it looks worse than AW but its most definitely because of the 'scope' they are applying to this game. Its much different structurally and I'm hype as fuck!

Count. Me. In.

There needs to be dolphin dives. Was that one when he dove into the water?

 

[Chris1]

Alphabetical order though.

So why is Playstation ahead of PC?

It's either some really random order, or PS has marketing deal.

 

[Big_Al]

Looks like therace stream begins soon in over an hour: (12 PST/ 3 EST/ 8 GMT) EXCLUSIVE BO3 INTEL HYPE! - Sponsored by Call of Duty: Black Ops 3

I'm assuming it's a multiplayer stream, I hope anyway.

 

[MrRoflWaffles]

Body: ready

 

[HighResTomato]

Really getting TitanFall vibes off this. I guess Call of Duty really is dead, it's more about gadgets and taking cues from other games now. It will still sell kazillions though.

 

[Summer Haze]

Well, I hate to break it to you, but most game engines run that way... even the heavily praised UE4.

Try including the word directly before the part you bolded.

 

[Boke1879]

Gen 8 hardware sales are going to be insane this holiday season.

I welcome it. It's time to move the last gen playerbase to current gen right now

 

[Ibuki]

Sorry if people were already discussing this... but what is going to happen to Halo 5? Didn't Halo 4 have the same issue of losing players when Black Ops 2 released about a week later?
