I'm waiting for reviews. When the first footage of the game came out, I was very excited... but the more I see of the multiplayer, the less excited I get. It doesn't look to be straying too far from the most recent Call of Duty games in that aspect, which isn't very encouraging to me. They don't need to reinvent the wheel by any means, but I want more strategy, like earlier games in the franchise (and like what Respawn did with "Titanfall"). That means no insanely close-quarters maps, improved hit-to-kill ratios, etc.

Eh? Probably would if Halo weren't coming out early November. That's going to be pretty much it for me through the holiday. Not even going to bother getting Sunset Overdrive, which I'm very interested in, because I just won't play it once Halo hits. It'll be relegated to post-holiday. I'd say the same for COD, but it'll be old news by then I assume, based on a yearly cycle.

In two minds about this, loved some CoD. And really want a decent shooter with players online for next gen, but Halo launching as well... So don't know if to pick both up or not.

Vowed to never put another CoD disc in my consoles after MW2, and I've stuck by it :p

 

Series needs to be put to rest IMO

I haven't bought an entry in the franchise since the original "Black Ops," but there's no sense in swearing it off simply because of the series' history. It's a brand new developer with a brand new setting -- I'm more than willing to give them a chance, especially given their background on the Dead Space franchise.

Eh, I MOSTLY liked Black Ops 2 (despite its incredibly ridiculous bits here and there...I only play CoD SP) but I haven't felt the need to even get Ghosts yet.

 

If I'm not playing anything and there's a sale running I pick one up.  I was amazed how many bad reviews Ghosts seemed to have on Steam though.

I'nm completely torn on this game. I loved the MP in the MW games, and put a lot of hours into those games. I pre-ordered Ghosts and didn't like the way it played. 

 

However after following this game for a while the MP portion looks to be shaping up nicely and don't know whether I should be get this or Halo. I've never played the Halo MP and this would be the perfect time to jump in. It does look epic!

Didn't know what it was with Ghosts gameplay. It just felt odd. Hard to explain what I mean by that but I think the COD's since Black Ops 1 haven't felt fully connected which has stopped me from being able to enjoy playing them. I loved the first Black Ops and when watching the clips of AW MP it reminds me of that.

I am hoping for a "deal on SSOD" once Black Friday hits.

 

Halo will be zapping quite a bit of my time as well...  But if there is some kind of deal on SSOD and Dragon Age... I will pick them up.

Awesome game looks awesome. I am getting this Day One, just like I have with all the other Call of Duty's. One of my favorite all time franchises. Keep up the great work!

Did you not feel that or Ghosts were a let down? I loved the MW branch of the franchise.

Ghosts wasn't my favorite. But since the original COD, there has been one or two sprinkled in there that were let downs. But overall, a great franchise. Everything I have seen from the videos so far for AW looks great. With Sledgehammer, Infinity Ward and Treyarch at the helm, we have a great line up of developers.

Apparently zombie mode or whatever it's called may be locked down for season pass holders.

 

I just seen the season pass is $50 as well. Is this the normal price?  :laugh:  :o

i dont see the big deal with zombies being part of season pass. AW already includes its own co-op mode, exo survival, like every other call of duty does. zombies is a bonus.

 

season pass was also $50 for ghosts.
