Infinity Ward will work with Treyarch more in the future

4.1
According to the Official Xbox Magazine, Infinity Ward and Treyarch have had a rebellious tension the past couple years when it came to Call of Duty, and why wouldn’t they? Both studios should always strive to improve and out do the previous Call of Duty entry. However, with more and more new features shared between the studios like “Gun Game” and “One in the Chamber”, the the studios will finally band together more in the future according to Infinity Ward.

In the newest OXM issue hitting news stands this month, Robert Bowling said “I think there will always be a lot of communication back and forth. At the end of the day we are two different developers and we have different opinions about the games we make and the games they make. When we do something really great it would be good for theirs, and when they do something really great it would be good for ours, so I think you are going to see a lot more of that. We’re taking in feedback as a franchise as a whole, not just our individual iterations any more.”

He made similar remarks to NowGamer.com when he said “Every year, we have that challenge of looking at what the previous Call of Duty has done, and trying to learn from that and better our own game because of it. do the same thing with Treyarch games, and I hope that they do the same thing with our games.”

When asked about how Call of Duty should change during the leap to Xbox 720 he said “After any big project you sit down and decide where we want to go next,” Bowling commented, “and in that conversation we consider what new technology is going to be available to us, what restrictions no longer apply that were there in the past and what our resources are, so especially in a transitional period in our industry that’s also something we have to take in. Right now, we haven’t decided what our next move is as Infinity Ward, but we are going to be taking all of that to our next iteration.”

ttgflame809 imagine they put zomebies and survial mode tht would be the best


Survival mode is horrible imo, the only reason people play it is to get the achievements. If they made it like zombies, say every 10 rounds there would be a boss wave or something then it could work but right now its just same enemies different map which gets boring too quick.

Controversial How about, after the release of BO2, both companies sit down and update the **** engine that the game runs on.


They update it every year. If you think they don't you're an idiot. Plus ID Tech 5 is out so they're obviously going to to, it's been confirmed.


You've missed my point. But, If they go to ID tech 5, i'll be happy.

LoL, i was wondering when they would have this "let's talk about other wars that we make games on" discussion.

VEVOPosted:

They just need to unionize together and make one company. It'll make things A LOT simpler and they will still create the same type of content.

ANG3L_CHR1SPosted:

What they NEED to do is bring back the awesome gore from the WaW days!
