Graphics aren’t the major selling points of Modern Warfare 3

4.5
According to Robert Bowling, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 isn't all about flashy graphics. It's as much about the visual fidelity of the game as it is the excellent sound and lighting claims the creative strategist for Infinity Ward. Bowling explained the team's objectives when developing a new Modern Warfare game, and apparently, they focus just as much on delivering a well rounded experience in often over-looked areas of the game.

"How can we add more to the experience? " asked Bowling. It really comes down into adding everything over all, because we're at a point now where you keep building on the visuals." "But really what sells everything is the lighting and proper audio - all these things that add to the immersion and situational awareness that you may not be able to pick out individually, but altogether they add to the experience."

"That's not to presume the graphics at large is not having any improvement." A lot of the tech going into Modern Warfare 3 is allowing us to really maintain that high fidelity in graphics and visuals that you expect." "Now we've brought it out to a whole new scale because now the war has come from the outskirts into the heart of major cities. So you're fighting in these very dense, urban environments that are completely different that what you've seen before."

Agreed, I played BBC2 for a while and it just wasn't as face-paced gameplay as MW2 was.


Oops, typo, fast-paced. >.>
face-paced LOL

I know most of the people got disappointed by Black Ops (even me) because multiplayer suck as*. But MW3 is a different story... Who was disappointed of MW2? Now imagine MW3 with more things like Survival Mode, new guns, etc. Who will be disappointed with this?

From the last two replies,

1) I highly doubt the Call of Duty franchisee will match Frostbite 2.0 until EA have Frostbite 4.0.

2) Even if they had the same kind of graphics,battlefield wouldn't be dead. It's not the graphics that make Battlefield so good,it's that it's nothing like Call of Duty,vehicles,game modes,weapons,story-lines,tactics leaving and more.

Monster9969 Don't be childish. Both games will be great. I'm buying both. With that said, you can't say the Battlefield will be the better of the two without playing both. Battlefield 3 could possibly be the Black Ops of the Battlefield series, and that would be an epic fail. Sure, Black Ops sold 25 million copies, but if everyone could have play Black Ops before buying it, then it never would have surpassed MW2. Black Ops was horrible. So, based on the past two Modern Warfare titles, the third installment should be awesome. However, I can guarantee you that Battlefield will not out sell MW3. For now, it will have to be satisfied with being in second place. Also, if Infinity Ward made another graphics engine for Call of Duty, then Battlefield will be buried in a pile of rubble and long forgotten.

Agreed except for your final statement. IW/Sledgehammer/treyarch would really be pushing it if they tried to match/beat the Frostbite 2.0 engine.

Anything is better than black op's crap graphics.

I loved the graphics in mw2 and just got a major disappointment when black ops released.

And people need to stop arguing over mw3 and bf3, they are both gonna be great games.
