Safer to get it for consoles because IW are probably going to restrict it somehow so mouse / keyboard PC players won't have a huge advantage.

Yeah, it works like Fortnite so if a PC and console player play together they get in a PC lobby.
Don't have a console and that's fine, means it's the same as Fortnite.
Has anyone seen this?
I wonder if they're going to cut some of the content mentioned in this video.

In the wake of the complete absence of gameplay footage at E3, just wanted to remind folks that Infinity Ward didn't do the multiplayer reveal for their last game (Infinite Warfare) until September.
Stay strong folks!
Stay strong folks!
This was the same demo shown to a select few people and press outlets back at Infinity Ward headquarters back in late May.
Infinity Ward know what they're doing tbh, they're being very careful to ensure that while the scenes will be controversial, nothing will be cut.
The amount of press they're going to get come October for certain scenes being too shocking will just keep the game in the news cycle for longer than if it didn't include said scenes. It works as a means to sell copies. Hell you've got people describing the entire game as "No Russian x10000"
This is the bread and butter for the Modern Warfare series dating back to the original so this trajectory was only natural as time went on.
I hope you're right. I don't want controversial scenes cut out of this game in fear of a backlash.
I don't get why some at IGN think the entire game will depict what we see in this one mission. That's some low grade conclusion.
To be fair, Infinity Ward have directly cited No Russian as a huge inspiration on the campaign for Modern Warfare (2019) so I can kinda understand that. They've said that they want the game to be a 'realistic' take on warfare, with them leaning more towards the 'war is bad' side of things which means highlighting atrocities which will by nature be controversial compared to most military shooters that are all "MURICA! FUCK YEAH!"
I mean it's literally in the reveal trailer too with Price talking about how the lines have blurred between right and wrong. In fact, the game's dialogue will change depending on if you cross a few lines or not. The opinion of your teammates will drastically shift if you were to say, kill an innocent civilian by accident during a raid.
I'm just going off the demo here but looking at Infinity Ward's history, the game will 100% be controversial for the sake of being controversial, imo. I'm of the opinion that nothing will be cut, however. The game's director has spoken out about rumors of stuff being cut with him stating that they're simply rumors, IW have no intentions of doing such things it seems.
I am really looking forward to this. I have said the game needed a visual overhaul for a long time now. The game looks amazing.
It is very annoying to me that people in the media want to criticize a game they probably would have no interest in playing anyway. This and a few other popular games that are coming out.
It seems like they want to completely sanitize any kind of expression that doesn't align with their moral standards.
I sincerely hope they do not censor the original creative vision for the game. All of the stories in most war games are so bland to me. So I am looking forward to something that might move me emotionally- either for the good or the bad. I just want to feel something other than the desire to rush toward the end.

I doubt they're going to cut anything. They're intentionally going for this.
And what's up with the downvotes on there? I didn't see anything remotely offensive or nonsensical in that video...
Well, that's a relief.
I would hate it if big companies would listen to game journalists only and not the actual fanbase or gamers in general and make changes to their campaigns based on behind-closed-doors gameplay that only they got to view.
That would be a major disservice and a major fuck you to gamers.
So, this makes me happy.

On another note, developers shouldn't also listen to gamers when it comes to artistic vision. They should do what they want to do, even if it pisses off some people.
I had no idea about their inspiration, must have missed that part if it was quoted in this video. I'm glad they're taking the 'war is bad' route, reminds me of Specs of: The Line.
I'm surprised to find out that your actions have a moral consequence; first in a Call of Duty game.
After the abysmal Black Ops 4, I'm all in for a controversial campaign that doesn't glorify war.
I hope so. Dislikes are most likely from the triggeeed alt-right lunies.
Nice. Thank you sharing this.
These statements brought me "Black" from PS2 vides. " visceral, strong, aggressive"
I can't wait for this game.
Don't worry, they'll have you putting stickers on them and sprinkling glitter on them in no time post release.
I hope so. It is a video game after all and not a war simulation.
Hopefully they work on their sound. Battlefield has been leaps and bounds ahead in that department for at least over a decade.
Rumors are saying after the next Blops 4 DLC which I think drops around the middle of this month.
We're about four months from release, so they could potentially blow out one pillar of the game each month (campaign, MP, BR and Spec Ops). But at this point I'd take a 10 second video of blasting some dudes with a silenced MP5 and reloading it :3
show us the gunplayyyyyyy
One possible idea to deal with the gun sound issue is to implement gun sound items that you could attach to your gun like camos. This way they can monetize gun sounds by putting them inside loot boxes. Legendary drop: the realistic gun sound. And you'll have to get gun sounds for each gun separately of course.
Can't believe it's July and we haven't seen the game. Normally by now we're flooded with information about the game and we known when the beta will be. We haven't seen a single second of gameplay.
If they're trying to retain interest in the older COD games by not showing the newest one, it's not working.
