There's a lot of latitude to do creative stuff with a future setting so I'm down.
Same here. I'd also like to see COD: Quest For Fire or COD: Caveman Games.

Even if activision forced them they own treyarch. Treyarch makes the best selling cods now and if they can't convince activision weapons in supply drops are the wrong direction then IW has no hope of stoping them.
I wouldn't be surprised if supply drops get added to single player and other modes in the next cod.
If activision did it like halo and funded map packs for free and didn't split the community. I could see the model working but as it stands most of the multiplayer community is very unhappy. Even tmartn put out a negative video about supply drops and he never bites the hand that feeds.
I have spent $150 on this cod and only have a fraction of the content that's bullshit anyway you slice it.
Ghosts campaign was one of the best FPS campaigns I've played.
I am glad to see that they aren't going back to WWII. It's a setting that was done so much for so long. People bring up the "you got tired of WWII, why not get tired of the future stuff?" But the difference is that the future is a hypothetical. It's not bound by any rules or realism. WWII is a real thing that happened, so there's a finite amount of twists and turns you can do with a real frame of time. And between movies and TV and books and games, WWII has been mined to death at this point. Unless it's some Wolfenstein alternate future WWII, which then isn't really WWII at all, then I'm not interested.
I wonder if this increases the chances for a Battlefield 2143
This guy/gal gets it. This way (if it really is a far future setting) they can keep this CoD thing going and evolve the story and setting without many restrictions. Sky, or space, is the limit. I hated "this is serious bro" COD. Really loving the way it's been less and less so every recent iteration since AW (at least as far as MP is concerned).
Maybe the series is going to so far into a post-singularity far future that time travel gets invented in-universe and the games jump back to WW2

Yaaaas! Throw in some areas of levels that are zero-g (like how they included water in BOIII) and give us thrusters on our suits to move 360° in. Have the sound cut to that hollow and whispy nothingness that Hollywood tells us space sounds like... bullets and weapons would sound so sweet skittering off everything in space! Make the transition from zero-g space to mag-booted/artificial gravity areas seamless and it will be HUGE!Maybe Space Warfare will be fun.

I mean, you guys have other games for that. Does Call of Duty really need to pander to that setting as well?
A lot of us really enjoyed the aesthetic the series had at its founding and peak popularity. It's really disappointing that it's gone.
Exactly. For the past three games, Activision has referred to each one as innovative. It wasn't the case then,and it won't be now.It's still going to be the same old formula. Not falling for the "futuristic" spin
Hope this series goes back in some way shape or form to it's roots of less is more.
But for fast paced shooting itch I'll have Doom multiplayer, and Next year Titanfall 2.
Space CoD vs Titanfall 2 will be very interesting.
WWII was never the peak of popularity for the franchise. Of the top six selling CoD games, none involve WWII. They are future or near-future based, or BO, which is an alternate future Cold War mix.
If you guys enjoy fantasy and Sci-fi, that's fine, I just don't see why Call of Duty needs to kneel before it, especially with how it was founded on and thrived with the complete opposite of speculative settings.
The irony of this is that CoD started out as a Teen-rated series that was actually quite mature, and is now a Mature-rated series that has become quite childish.
I get it I do... but CoD has evolved it seems. Can't see it going back to the way things were. It's all pedal-to-the-metal, crazy from here on out.
Starring Matt Damon. "I'm gonna have to game the shit out of this."If this years COD is more Sci-fi and takes place in space, then what is 2017 COD? On Mars?
