Activision Not worried if players spend more time on MW Remastered

4.5
Speaking with Forbes, Activision’s Rob Kostich (Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Call of Duty franchise) has revealed some new information about the reasonings behind bringing back Call of Duty 4.

Activision deciding to bring back Call of Duty 4 came from hearing fan feedback, and with Infinity Ward’s new title coming this year, it was the perfect time to do so.


“We’ve heard the community loud and clear the last couple of years,” said Rob Kostich. We thought it would be a perfect opportunity to celebrate Call of Duty and the community, where we’re going and where we’ve been and bring it together in one package. From an overall offering, an overall value proposition, I think what we’re giving to the community this year is frankly unprecedented in Call of Duty history”.

But in order to get Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered players must buy the Legacy or Digital Legacy (or higher) editions of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare.

Kostich said that the team at Activision is not worried about players playing Modern Warfare Remastered more than Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Infinity Ward’s studio head, Dave Stohl, also made that point in the interview, stating that players get two different games in one bundle.
“It was important for us to be authentic to what fans want,” Kostich told me. He isn’t worried that players may spend more time playing more Modern Warfare multiplayer than Infinite Warfare. “We’re thrilled they’re going to be playing a lot of Call of Duty this year,” he says.

“If you think about it, basically they scratch two different itches,” Stohl adds. ”You’re gonna scratch the kind of more nostalgia Modern Warfare itch with the remaster, but all the kinda cool new stuff in Infinite Warfare is really exciting too. Obviously the Infinite Warfare experience is big with all the new bells and whistles, but it’ll be fun to go back to Modern Warfare multiplayer as well.”

AllSkinsNoSkill No reason for them to be worried if everyone dropped $80 just to play that lol


The exact thing i was going to say lol. Im actually going to wait it out to see how it turns out. Ill preorder it and not pick it up for about a week from gamestop. If everything goes to shit, ill just move the money i had on that preoroder onto another upcoming game. Funny thing is, i would have probably went onto buy Remastered MW for $20 without a problem but $80 for a game i dot even want to get to play and old game, thats crazy

gtapro151 OMG. We got the **** game back and people are still bitching. Of course they are going to charger for it and anything they release for it. They have to take the time and money to update the graphics and game codes to run on the new dedicated servers and everything its going to be a great cod 4 experience and i'm not gonna cry over 20 bucks. 99$ gets you 2 games and the season pass now how can people be mad?


Because nobody wants the shit "new" game, because its the same future bullshit half assed game. & The funny thing is IW isn't even making or working on COD4 Remastered, Raven is. Which IW is not even paying for lol, they are just publishing it through their name.

IW and Treyarch won't change because Activision is the biggest shit hole of a company.

If anyone is going to buy the new one just for COD4. DON'T because just remember Activision and what they do, you know they release that shit months later by it self, along with DLC for the rest of the COD4 maps when they are done being remastered. I mean they do this shit everytime, they said its only available by being pre-ordered, just like all the maps and stuff they release later on. Just wait for it. I know I will, because you know COD4 Remastered will be worth the money without the shit "new" game.

Just my 2cents and its all imo.
