I'll be satisfied with a next-gen tweaked BO2. Vonderhaar knows objectives>K/D and it showed in BO2. BO3 should be the same.

Hoping BO2 style Combat Training comes back. 3v3 with bots, 1/2 XP.

I really wonder if it'll have the option for a different movement system or if we're back to regular CoD. If Treyarch even had the time to have the option to put exos into their game.

Well poo poo, the DLC in Advanced Warfare has a spiderman like device in it, so this is totally doable.

Developed by Treyarch, the award-winning creator of the two most played games in Call of DutyŽ history. Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 deploys players into a dark, twisted future where a new breed of Black Ops soldiers emerges and the lines are blurred between our own humanity and the technology we created to stay ahead, in a world where cutting-edge military robotics define warfare. With three unique game modes: Campaign, Multiplayer, and Zombies, it providing fans with the deepest and most ambitious Call of Duty ever.

So wait, that press release is worded strange, is Activision saying that Black Ops III is not on 360/ps3? Cause that would be a good thing since it was pretty obvious the resources from the 360/ps3 versions of Ghost and Advanced Warfare were holding the PS4/PC versions back.

I'm reading it exactly how you are too. "First title for next gen hardware." Reads like "made exclusively for ps4/xbone."

Me too, but seeing how much whining about "exo suits are coming back" (which isn't confirmed) is on twitter, a new WWII CoD might be better received than people would expect

I'm going with the idea that they look more like cybernetic enhancements then exo suits.

They said first next-gen game in "the critically acclaimed Black Ops series". They're essentially saying it's Treyarch's first next-gen game.

But we're three years into this generation of consoles when Black Ops III drops, so it may be about time to cut the cord there anyway. I'd say it's 50/50, depending on how low Sony and Microsoft feel like dropping the price on their behemoths this summer/holiday.

Yeah, I'm all set with the exo suits at this point. I'll get Black Ops 3 either way, because Treyarch usually makes a good COD game, but if all exo suits all the time is the way Call of Duty is going, I think I may be done with the franchise after that.

Same. Reminds of Halo too much. To me it feels more like a Halo game than a Cod. Except the time to kill.

After I hit the rank cap in Advanced Warfare, I went back and tried to play Ghosts. It's too slow now, keep the exo suits please. I can't imagine CoD without them anymore, the game would need much smaller maps without the exo suits. Ghosts maps are too big for how slow you move.

Ghosts being loving slow was a big complaint about the game actually. Whereas blops 2 didn't have that complaint.

Yeah, you had large(r) maps minus AW's mobility in Ghosts.

Stormfront and that Scottish castle one might have been playable if they'd had jump packs.
