It wrapped up the MW storyline nicely and the scenario of WW3 was clever.
It's cod and activi so people can get some cheap shots.

COD 2019 is called Call of Duty: Modern Warfare; "soft reboot", reveal May 30

As expected, the advanced movement is hated by the community and so is the futuristic setting. If Activision could wipe Infinite Warfare from existence they'd probably do so.
We're in the worst timeline.
In another timeline Infinite Warfare 2 is coming with Salter as the protagonist. :(
I tried to find an issue with the name, and ended up finding Zero(0)... None.
At least we can expect a campaign mode this time.

Hopefully its really set in 2019/2020 and we dont have the lootbox weapons. Not sure if COD still does that but the MW remake did and I noped out of there once it started happening and ruined the game.
Yeah its really dumb
Imagine being in a creative industry and being this bland on purpose
All y'all writing off this game especially the campaign obviously didn't play Infinite Warfare.
btw i really want an infinite warfare 2, that one was the best campaign i've played of COD in a long time
The difference between MW - MW and the other examples (GOW, Doom, Prey) is that Modern Warfare is itself a subtitle.
This isn't releasing a new game called "call of duty" -- this is like releasing another game called Doom: Hell On Earth. Or God Of War: Ascension. Not a big deal but 500% sillier.

Eh, a game with the same title after 12 years is not that shocking. You can't top Worms in naming conventions. We had Worms in 1995, Worms 2 in 1997 and Worms Armageddon in 1999. So in 2007 we got a name called Worms, and in 2009 one called... Worms 2: Armageddon. Yeah.
But a soft reboot for Modern Warfare makes sense. Story got slightly convoluted and it's hard to add more to that. Start with a clean slate, so you can bring back dead characters and not demand people to remember 3 games' storylines and events.

As I pointed out in another post, there's worse: Worms (1995), Worms 2 (1997), Worms Armageddon (1999), Worms (2007), Worms 2: Armageddon (2009).
All we can hope is that depending if this is set sometime after MW3 (assuming it's not some prequel), they begin to set the seeds of technology and events that would lead into IW.
Infinity Ward really had a hard time this generation, huh.
They made 2 unique subseries of COD (ghosts and IW), and instead of continuing either of those they just said fuck it and are soft rebooting the subseries that made them famous.

I feel a clean break is probably for the best. It gets held back when they're forced to tie them into previous entries.
That is worse. But worms at least is intentionally silly (and tragically much more obscure)
Exactly. Make it indistinguishable from earlier entries. It's a ''Soft reboot'' after all, so why not go all the way.
Worked wonders for something like GoW.
Is there expected to be a new engine in 2019 or 2020? I'm a fan of the modern warfare setting, and I always called the original CoD4.
Some of you are writing this off so fast just from a name lol. From what I've heard, it sounds quite good, some neat changes to the formula, things returning. Let's just wait and see.
Soft reboot is terms of story.
Also that would be a great way to alienate your fanbase to appease those who couldn't give a shit about the series.
Why the hell would you do that with a series which always sells gangbusters and outside of years in which R* releases a new game is always the best selling game by miles?
I like it. It serves a purpose. It makes it clear to everyone that it's a full reboot. It works.
But in this case this is just stupid, especially since Modern Warfare Remastered only came out recently. They should have called it Call of Duty.
It's funny... I had a golden cross in CoD4 and also played a lot of MW2 and 3. No hype whatsoever for this because I am eternally burnt out on CoD.
Should be called Call of Duty 16: Modern Warfare 4.

Ah yes, the quintessential "Yearly series is steadily dropping in sales every year" move, go back to the game that began the craze in the first place.
Anybody else having Goldeneye: Rogue Agent flashbacks?

Not writing it off (tbh, not really a fan of the MW subseries in general. I prefer Blops and I liked Advanced Warfare)
But the name is still pretty funny considering they put out MW:Remastered this year
If the TTK is like BLOPS4 then I'll be happy. If it is shorter, then idk. I'm still hyped about it and can't wait to hear more
Modern Warfare 0
Modern Warfare Origins
Modern Warfare Revelations
