Third-person COD officially shelved

4.4

Remember that mysterious third person Call of Duty game? It now looks like it's unlikely to ever see the light of day.

The studio that was working on it, Sledgehammer Games, has confirmed that the project has been canned. And with Sledgehammer now one of the multiple studios working on Modern Warfare 3, it seems that the game has been abandoned.

"We came on board to make a third person action adventure game, in the Call of Duty franchise," Activision VP and GM and the founder of Sledgehammer Glen Schofield told Gamespot.

Sledgehammer’s Michael Condrey added: "We were working on it about six months. We had a prototype together that was pretty compelling. It looked really good".

The opportunity to work on the biggest thing in the industry with Infinity Ward, which has demonstrated that they know how to do exceptional software, was just an opportunity we couldn't miss.

"There is a lot of people on the team who have worked on Call of Duty before, who have worked on first-person shooters, so there is a lot of built-in knowledge about the FPS genre and a lot of passionate gamers."

uMpzz this would have just ruined the call of duty franchise if they did 3rd person and would probably be the dumbest mistake

not really. The head of sledgehammer games,
Glen Schofield, was the executive producer and creator of Dead Space, one of the greatest 3rd person games of 2008.

If they actually made a 3rd person game, not only would it be amazing, but it would of really put a little mix into call of duty. Probably the reason why it probably got canceled is because this game would of probably taken more money to make then it would sell. Because its 3rd person.

And BTW 3rd person team tactical is probably my favorite game type, i hope they at least add 3rd person in mw3

Dead Space May Have Been A Good 3rd Person Game But, I Agree The COD Series Would Be Ruined If It Was 3rd Person......The COD Series Just Doesnt Suit 3rd Person

Putting Capital Letters At The Beginning Of Every Word Makes You Look Dyslexic.

So could you stop, before you get laughed at.

Someone does not know what dyslexic means...

Actually YOU don't know what Dyslexic means...

"Dyslexia is a broad term defining a learning disability that impairs a person's fluency or comprehension accuracy in being able to read, and spell,[1] and which can manifest itself as a difficulty with phonological awareness, phonological decoding, orthographic coding, auditory short-term memory, or rapid naming."

Theres the definition. So he is actually correct. Capitalizing every beginning letter of every word does make you seem Dyslexic.

LMAO dumb **** Using google to find out what it meens couldnt you just tell us in your own words.

Idiot:

1.
Informal . an utterly foolish or senseless person.
2.
Psychology, a person of the lowest order in a former and discarded classification of mental retardation, having a mental age of less than three years old and an intelligence quotient under 25. (Source Dictionary.com)

You are the epitome of both. Now go read a book.

I love these arguments

Having to Google the definition of Dyslexia makes you seem like a dumb ass and I put a capital letter at the start of every word because its a 'Force of habit' unless you have to Google that too?
