All hands on deck from other studios to make itInfinity Ward isn’t the only one working on the next Call of Duty title, which is expected to be called Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. The latest news that it is an all hands on deck project to make sure that COD:MW3 makes its still unannounced November 2011 release date. Whispers that we hear seem to indicate that Activision has tasked resources from both Sledgehammer Games and Raven Software to assist with the project in order that the title can be finished in time for release. Reports suggest that Sledgehammer will be greatly reducing work on its upcoming Call of Duty spinoff title in order to assist Infinity Ward with the single player experience in COD:MW3. Raven software, which has in the past worked on map packs for COD projects, will be tasked with providing resources to work on the multiplayer of COD:MW3. While Activision has yet to officially announce COD:MW3. It is expected that Activision will officially announce COD:MW3 at E3, according to our sources, where they are expected to announce that it will ship in November 2011. While Activision has not confirmed the reallocation of internal studio resources to the project, multiple sources are indicating this is indeed what has happened. Sources are indicating to us that we should now assume that this will delay the Sledgehammer COD project, but it is unknown how long this delay might be, because little is actually known about the project or the time line for completion.
Is this real?
My prediction: It'll be an awful game, a shame to the very industry, like black-ops and like MW2 but it'll still break records in sales. It'll come out barely working, like a 3 month premature baby and the doctors will frantically patch it up with duct tape and super glue while it somehow receives semi-decent reviews ("OMG IT WAS AWSOME LIKE HAVING SEX ON A CLOUD MADE OUT OF CAKE except we couldn't play coz there was this bug that hasn't been fixed yet..." or something similar) while people wonder when the **** they'll actually get to play the game.The story will be borderline bizzare. And by borderline, I don't mean borderline realistic. I mean borderline between "monkey having sex with a parrot on an alien cruise ship crazy" and "old dude having a bath in the torch of the statue of liberty, which was filled with orange juice after heavy rainfall and a tornado swept through an orange farm crazy".They make the game realistic enough to force us to accept that the game universe IS BASED ON REALITY, not an alternate reality (settings like Iraq/Afghanistan or Vietnam) and then once the suspension of disbelief has been broken, they fore random crap like Russia invading USA or a dude being hypnotized to kill the president and believe some dead dude was alive all along, even though the latter was done by a jailfag who knew nothing about hypnosis.
