Sledgehammer looking at “opportunities” to recreate classic maps

4.6
According to co-founder Michael Condrey, players of the latest Havoc DLC are asking how Exo abilities and verticality can be added to classic franchise maps.

“One new piece of feedback we have heard in Havoc is the fan desire to see some classic maps make their way to Advanced Warfare, and we’re taking a look at some opportunities to really highlight the vertical gameplay mechanics in some reimagined franchise favorites moving forward, like we did with Atlas Gorge,” said Condrey.

“Verticality is a key component of the new movement set in Advanced Warfare, and we’ve doubled down on that for Havoc,” he added. “We’re about to drop some news on how we’re pushing even further into that space in the coming DLC offerings, so stay tuned for more soon.”

The Havoc DLC for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare has just been released on PS4 and PC, after a period of exclusivity on Xbox One.

So far, players are digging the changing map dynamic of Drift and the weird-out vibes of Sideshow, according to Condrey.

“Feedback has been well received, and some of the new ways to play in the Havoc maps have really resonated with fans.

“The avalanche dynamic event in Drift is a fan favorite, as is the more sinister flavor of Sideshow with its creepy clowns and wide open sight lines. The AE4 is also hit, bringing the benefits of a directed energy weapon to the AR class for the first time.”

Hei CoD never got worse, actually it got ALOT better, but every year more games are pushing the limit with the current tech, and CoD still stays barebones.


I'll stop you there and say, releasing the same game with different graphics and slightly different mechanics is not "pushing the limit with the current tech"

There are MUCH better looking and better developed games out there.

They seriously need to add interactive maps with AI, obviously the AI would give less XP than a Player. Kinda like Titanfall, with no titans and buildings that actually give you an advantage for being in it. Destroy-able buildings. CoD used to be fun, notice how I said used to be. CoD never got worse, actually it got ALOT better, but every year more games are pushing the limit with the current tech, and CoD still stays barebones.

Just a game full of zombies please, every map made with alterations on sizing plus a few new ones including exo zombies
Multiplayer would be humans vs zombies TDM FFA(16 man 8/8) CTF DOM SND KC GG Infected
Humans have limited loadouts, perks, kill streaks and ammo also is gained by playing well, zombies have souped up abilities quicker speed see through walls etc etc etc perks and kill streaks could be focused around a zombies intelligence ie climb ladders and use picked up weapons maybe a temporary infection other player must get a team kill to revert back otherwise it lasts 30 seconds
Matchmaking is random
You prestige as either human or zombie
Challenges are acquired as zombie or human and have different rewards

Anybody care to comment??

I have a better idea just remake old cods they will make money and the players will be happy

I wish they would release old maps for free. Idgaf about HAVOC DLC. They can charge for all that, but if they brought back the old maps I feel like it would need to be released for the public that haven't played them yet, as a type of reel for the bigger DLC's that no one has played before.

Aha, once again taking OLD MAPS upgrading colours/graphics BOOM BRAND NEW MAP

Instant DLC Money

IMO AW is extremely boring. If they add old guns they would have so much traffic!

Even if they did, i would not enjoy the game really, its awful in my opinion, no fun at all in leveling up, made it so easy and the zombies was a bit let down on top of it!
