[rumor] - Title of next Call Of Duty game is ‘Black Ops: Cold War’
- Thread starter Milennia
- Start date
Honestly, I was in a mood for a futuristic CoD. They could handle them this way: Sledgehammer - Futuristic War, Treyarch - Past War, Infinity Ward - Modern War. It makes sense this way imo. At least we're getting a Cold War game this year (the campaign might be pretty interesting if Mason and the numbers are back)
So they will just never get rid of the Black Ops name and will just bolt whatever else onto the end of it
Please have less porous maps than Modern Warfare, more vivid colors to make out enemies, and longer time-to-kill.
I love the setting of the first Black Ops. Hopefully this matches that.

Crazy, right =P I feel like they're reaching a point where they could ditch "Call of Duty" from the titles and spin Blops and MW into their own franchises. Have a CoD game every three years or so that experiments with a completely new setting. Creates a lot of room for divergence if they wanted to experiment with it.
At the very least, it's testament to their ability to create phenomenal brand power.
Give me the same gameplay and TTK as Blops 4 and I'm all in. The Blops series has had its problems but as far as I'm concerned Treyarch are the kings of gameplay.
I really feel that Treyarch are the poorest development team in the Call of Duty stable, I've never understood why the Black Ops series was so successful relative to the other sub-series. Their games are always the most technically questionable, with frequent poor graphical performance and connection bugs. The single-player element was always weaker than the Modern Warfare series or the other IW/Sledgehammer series. I did quite enjoy World at War at the time, but the rest of them are subpar on the campaign side. The multiplayer was not as bad, but never stellar. I'll be giving this a miss.
This was originally the first title that Raven was the lead developer, I wonder what they come up with singleplayer because it was way too late for Treyarch to build the campaign from the ground up.
Anyway, MW and BF3 to BF1 on PC are more than enough to keep me busy on the MP side of things I'm not going to buy anything Treyarch related without a big discount. I fucking hate their post Black Ops era art direction.

Hoping they stray away from overly saturated colors myself as well, maybe learn something from MW and make that much needed switchThis was originally the first title that Raven was the lead developer, I wonder what they come up with singleplayer because it was way too late for Treyarch to build the campaign from the ground up.

Apparently this years COD will be subtitled Black Ops Cold War

Close if Old.
Title was meant to say Back to Cold War of mods want to fix it.

Sales figures. Black Ops and MW are their strongest releases/sub-brands.
Maybe go the way Gears did and just call it COD: Black Ops Cold War. Makes it somewhat better I suppose. :P
I want them to make the multiplayer component a separate launcher.
Screw wasting 150GB on campaign data that I will only play for 8hrs.
I'm not having unusual issues with campers.

They're going to have to do a lot to impress me. Free maps and dlc is the bare minimum. I felt so burned buying BO4...
It is probably because at least Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare had the 4 to differentiate them. Too much confusion in databases/software if they had the exact same name possibly.
I hated these changes coming from Blops 2. It doesn't need to be a hero shooter and, under minding score streaks. Then having a high TTK with stim shots and no proper equipment like grenades
I agree that grenades were made too weak, but the high TTK was perfect for me. It's the main reason I don't like MW. I don't mind if stim comes or goes.
Black Ops series wasn't just anti-Russian propaganda
Literally carrying the soviet flag while injured with the national anthem playing.
Black Ops series had good Russians and bad Russians
The Russian parts were the best parts of World at War and Black Ops 1

"This autumn's Call of Duty game is called Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, according to a leak backed up by Eurogamer's own sources."
"Call of Duty leaker Okami posted a mocked-up box cover with the correct title on Twitter last night. It's fair to say this isn't the artwork you'll see later this year, but the title is on the money."
"As the name suggests, Treyarch's Black Ops series is returning to its roots with a historical setting. Treyarch's series began in the 1960s, before leaping into the future for its sequels.
It's a similar situation to Infinity Ward's Modern Warfare, which after several sequels got a soft reboot last year.
As Eurogamer reported yesterday, Call of Duty battle royale Warzone has begun a set of teases to do with its locked bunkers, which will slowly hint at a Cold War setting over time. There's more to come there before Activision makes Cold War official, though of course players have already glitched through walls and seen some of what is in store, including a Cold War era spyplane."
[rumor] - Title of next Call Of Duty game is ‘Black Ops: Cold War’
(Leaker of warzone amongst other things, obviously not box art) Rumor is that this is a soft-reboot of the Black Ops series utilizing the same characters (Mason etc.), may have actual ties to the original black ops universe Update:

Ooh. A Cold War Call of Duty game? I'll probably buy it. Sounds cool. But who's going to develop it?

Yeah, this is pretty much a catch-all shot for them to catch the magic of blops 1, especially with the hype coming off MW and all it's success
Soft reboot is a good chance for treyarch to win me back
Sledgehammer started it with Raven, then Treyarch took it over and fixed/finished it.
I wouldn't bank on futuristic stuff coming back. They have toyed around with it a fair bit this gen and for whatever reason I just don't think it's really landed at all.
By comparison, they are the best gig in town when it comes to current time period with MW, and the nostalgia/brand recognition for Cold War era Black Ops is crazy strong. I think we'll get alternate MW/BLOPS games for the foreseeable now. Maybe even the next 4-5 years.
