Mark my words: we will see lasers, forcefields and robots in a Call of Duty game before 2020. Near-future warfare has come and replaced the now stagnant modern warfare FPS genre and it's only going to get more and more absurd and over-the-top as the years go by much like how modern warfare got more dumb.

I can't wait. Call of Duty losing its loving mind is what made this series so much more bearable for me.

You'd be surprised at just how many people are adamantly against putting anything other than REAL WORLD GUNS in multiplayer. If it's not a REAL WORLD GUN then it has to be based off one and god help you if it fires lasers.

Real world WHAT?
I don't remember Cod, but Battlefield 4 went as far as removing or nerfing[1] kill trades, that is if you shoot at an enemy and died, your shots would magically disappear in flight and not hit your killer.

[1] which for some BF4 commentators meant Dice probably powered them up

I just put those in caps to emphasize how much people bitch and moan whenever the idea of putting in made up future guns into cod is brought up.

I would say, based on what I've seen, that 360 still has a huuuuuge community (passing 100k players on the weekends) that far outnumbers xbone.

Here's some stuff about a couple weapons. Note the 3D printing rifle. It makes bullets the whole time you use it. It's almost like having permanent scavenger.

You may have to reload the "bullet juice." It seems you can rely on a gradually increasing mag up to a certain point so you don't have to do a full reload after firing a short burst. It could potentially gently caress you over if you mag dump then get stuck with a slowly replenishing available ammo count.

Which is why I said "almost." It's a neat concept and I'm looking forward to the other guns they eventually show off.

No one ever mentions the first mission where you charge side by side with Jonas Savimbi. There's a pretty clear message in these setpieces.

That mission was straight up amazing and I was sad when Savimbi wasn't in any other missions.

I kind of wonder what's the point of competitive tourneys if you're going to ban half the games perks and skills off the bat.

Pretty much everyone I see who defends competitive play defends it with the "football rules" thing. Like, they say banning all that stuff is so they can take out as many random elements as possible and to keep it on as even a playing field as they can.

I haven't made up my mind yet on which console I'm going to upgrade to but currently the only think the bone has going for it is all my cod bros buying this game for it. Which may be weighted enough to tip the scale against the ps4.

I'm justifying it this way.

Xbone is my cod system with all my cod friends and is also gonna be used mostly for shooters. I do want a ps4 for everything that isn't a shooter though.
