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.”

Rust would be perfect for advanced warfare.

Even though this sounds great to recreate fan favorites, it should be obvious that this is just Sledgehemmer being lazy.

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


Then people would criticize for just being lazy and remaking old games, people will never be happy with Call of Duties.


That's true, there is always something that people will complain about.

For me, I'm glad that I got to play CoD4 when it was clean from all the xp and modded lobbies :')

Basically this screams to me "We're too lazy to think of new map concepts so will bring old ones back"

DusknoirPosted:

why not make new maps they were classics and were better off as that.

Favela seems like it would be a fun map to play with the exo suits

I wouldn't mind if they came back with map remakes but only on the classic playlist so exo movements wouldn't be an issue.
