Call of Duty not representative of military life, says Ghosts producer
"There an enormous amount of appreciation for what [veterans] do," Rubin told Game Informer. "In no way do we feel we are a representation of what their lives are like. We are trying to be a cinematic movie experience based on authentic equipment and authentic experience. A lot of the stuff that we show in the game has been done by someone, but it's not a representation of what they do or it's not an equivalent in any way of what they do. We're just trying to make a fun movie."
This is clearly a different approach than the one EA took with Medal of Honor.
Though it's a fictional experience, Hirshberg does note that veterans are included in the development process. "We try to make our games authentic, we try to get the feel right. And then, also, there are guys who come in and do our mo-cap for us and become actors in the game, do the stunts in our commercials, and certainly, there are some high-level consultants who have some harrowing stories that have been some of the inspiration for some of the missions and levels in our games."

PawnStarsLia I've always enjoyed arcade shooters over realism, it's more appealing to me and just more action packed
idk why people make want realism in video games so badly
They are video games!

PawnStarsLiaKatsumiImmerseGmlukens I don't look for this game to represent real combat... I just want a fun game
Same here, I just like the arcade style shooter, if I'm feeling that "Realistic Style Combat" I could just play Battlefield for a bit.
Either way, I'm still hyped for both games.
Many people seem to get the wrong idea when it comes to this and call of duty. Now that they have cleared it up people may finally begin to understand what call of duty is meant to be. I am also looking forward to both call of duty and battlefield
Yea I have seen many people bash on call of duty because it is too much of an "arcade shooter"hopefully people now understand that it was support to be like this. I'm still most likely going to not buy a copy unless the game is actually some what new and refreshing
I'm not sure cod will ever be new and refreshing, even though a lot of ppl get tired of them everyone still buys them and from a marketing standpoint why change what doesn't need to be fixed. If it sells like it does it has to be good? right?
From the looks of ghost I think it's going to be refreshing, ill enjoy it
