Infinity Ward to Take on COD6

Infinity Ward to Take on COD6
Written Tuesday, September 16, 2008 by Dan Webb

No real surprises here, but it's really comforting to know that Activision confirmed to IGN that fan favourites, Infinity Ward are taking the realms for Call of Duty 6.

Whether this is the new sci-fi FPS title that was rumoured earlier on in the year remains to be seen. We're hoping it won't be and that rumour is a new IP. I just can't imagine the Call of Duty series moving in to the realms of space and beyond.

Until then, you can always take a look at Call of Duty: World at War which is set for a November 11th release in North America and November 14th in Europe.

Maybe it'll be a futaristic version? Like 100-200 years into the future or something? Either way, glad IW are back onboard.

IW would win out over Treyarch any day of the week!

At least that is my opinion ...

Make it a Vietnam game.

I don't mind as long as its not World War again, or even another Modern Combat game would do.

Peace

CoD2 wasn't great, but people need to stop hating on Treyarch. There not as good as IW, no, but still a decent dev, and I look forward to CoD5 and hopefully they'll redeem themselves

Does this mean COD7 is going to be cell shaded?

I had a buddy that went to the game convention in vegas about a week ago. He got a hands on with the new Cod game in co-op and he said it was awesome. And everyone one knows that the third one wasn't all that good but still playable. I believe that the next one in the series is what we played at the end of Cod 4. A kind of remake of the old rainbow six series but a lot better. I guess we shall see when it gets closer to next year.

Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 05:33:47 PM

I honestly don't know what kind of game they will make now, i mean COD used to be nothing but ww2, what are they going to do next, make a game about the civil war ?

Comment #14 by xXDr_Doom43Xx
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 05:35:06 PM

or maybe even Desert Storm?

Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 05:40:22 PM

"look forward to World at War?"
Um, yeah, but keep in mind that "World at War" (COD5) is being made by Treyarch and NOT Infinity Ward. So if you want to play another mediocre crapfest then I guess yeah, you can look forward to "World at War." I think I'll sit this one out and wait for the REAL Call of Duty game when Infinity Ward puts it out NEXT year.

I really hope its not futuristic weaponry, it would be like they are following Battlefields exact footsteps.

Comment #18 by JLogan27
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 06:20:28 PM

@ #15.

Treyarch is using the same engine Infinity Ward used for COD4.

Because of that, I'll give it a shot.

when u say futer it doesent have to mean plasma guns and shit like that it could be 50 years frim now and our weapons are much more advance

looking forward to world of war! I'm not so into future games...

Comment #21 by Invader Skooj
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 07:23:26 PM

I'm done with COD

Infinity Ward doesn't know anything they're doing. COD4 is easily replaced by any other modern shooter. BF BC is just so much more intense than COD4.

Infinity Ward is a fucking terrible development team. The people that support them are the idiots that make me keep my chat volume at 0 on Live.

Comment #22 by xXx3NIGM4xXx
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 07:37:49 PM

@21, you could conceivably keep it at 0 on BC too, rarely does anyone actually work as a team compared to just caring about their personal stats. COD4 is meant for death match and the like, which is fine. Its a different direction than BC. COD4 is so funny because you can actually talk to other people..and that brings up interesting..conversations..

COD5, I will give a shot..Wasn't a fan of COD3, owned it, never played it.

Comment #24 by stephenmilne27
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 07:56:34 PM

Maybe they should have a present day one, kinda like modern warfare but real events such as afghanistan and iraq

Comment #25 by The oDepressedfisHo
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 07:58:05 PM

@24 i dont think they can do that as they would suggest too much

Comment #26 by xHHx CURT xHHx
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 08:12:28 PM

@25 but isn't that what there doing with brothers in arms?
isn't that Afghanistan in the present day or sumat.
personally i wont be getting cod5 because apart from modern warfare... all the cod's and medal of honers are to repetitive for me. cod4 just felt a little different. i really liked it more than the others

Comment #27 by laundryman
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 08:43:52 PM

They are probably going to do another modern game. Think about it. There are a fair amount of futuristic games nowadays (not nearly as much as there are WWII games, but still). Judging by how well Call of Duty 4 did, they will probably stay in that field.

Comment #28 by cacique730
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 08:48:41 PM

I hope they build on what they did on cod 4. If i wanted 2 shoot lasers i'd play halo. Which is why i play call of duty. lasers suck...

Comment #29 by Blue Thunder28
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 08:53:38 PM

No more modern shooters, go to WW1 :D .. I want to be fighting in the trenches when the mustard gas starts pouring in. That would be intense.

Vietnam would be SWEET....JIMI HENDRIX SOUNDTRACK.......

Comment #31 by SP4RT4N360
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 09:03:04 PM

@ 29 yea thatll be intense while you take half an hour to reload your poxy weapon!! And you could always replace the airstrike with elephant charge. Its obvious how crap WW1 would be as no 1s bothered yet.

Comment #32 by Nevander

I'd like to see a futuristic warfare Call of Duty, like BF 2142 or EndWar.

First of all LOL@#31.

Second, glad to hear IW are to make the 6th in the series. However, as per #28 I will not be buying a futuristic title.

I agree with some of the comments above. They should do a campaign on Vietnam or Desert Storm. Vietnam being preference :)

Thoughts?

Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 11:34:31 PM

CoD5 is gonna be a great game .. having everything they had in CoD4 online such as perks, upgrades pertaining on how you do in multiplayer, will make this game awesome. As long as they go without online achievements like in CoD4 it will make the onlie aspect so much better and a heck of a lot funner. I can't wait to play this game.

Comment #39 by ClutchPapi34
Tuesday, September 16, 2008 @ 11:39:53 PM

I think CoD 5 will be fun. It is using COD4's engine and there is online co op. It will be pretty cool.

Comment #40 by Scythe100
Wednesday, September 17, 2008 @ 12:44:23 AM

Am hoping they stay in the realm of COD4, using what they've already built upon, or maybe like 5-10 years in the future.
WW2, Vietnam and the 1st Gulf War have already been done, to varying success so i don't reckon they should bother re-treading old ground.

Comment #41 by XxIPUNISH3RIxX

this should be fun

Comment #42 by Invader Skooj
Wednesday, September 17, 2008 @ 01:49:57 AM

Actually they're is heavy team work on BF BC. It's COD4 that it becomes a personal stat fest. I have had so many insane moments in BF BC. There nothing more fun than seeing your team blowing out bridges to stop the enemy's advance or being inside a building that is in the thick of an air strike. BF BC on-line gameplay is extremely intense and will often have insane firefights. The distant gunshots ambiance is actually created by the fights on the front.
Call of Duty has now become a "Quantity over Quality" Franchise and thus lost my eye. The only bright star in the COD franchise was COD United Offensive. Foy is the best map ever in any COD. The Tanks, the large levels, the Base Assault mode was a perfect mixture.

Maybe they'll make it so when you're in a gillie suit and you're laying in the grass, you can't easily be seen.

Wednesday, September 17, 2008 @ 02:13:43 AM

i think iw should 4get bout all dis games around the world. if they r goin 2 make a futuristic game they should make it wat the u.s. is actually fighting today. TERRORISM. they should hav a foreign country invadin the u.s. i think fightin inside states and cities like ny, chicago, miami, and l.a. would b a crazy game 2day. can u imagine a firefight in yankee stadium or the golden game bridge wired with enough explosives 2 knock california off the planet. u should b able 2 fly planes and tanks n shit so u get a feel of an entire force than an individual.

as long as IW continues making war games without treyarch involvement then it is a good thing.

Wednesday, September 17, 2008 @ 10:25:28 AM

Im so sick and TIRED of people complaining about treyarch, first of all if you don't like their games DON'T PLAY THEM!, infinity ward is garbage for making a modern warfare game that totally turned call of duty mainstream, I remember the good old days when noone played call of duty that much, people preferred medal of honor and other WW2 FPS's

Comment #56 by Paprikeh
Wednesday, September 17, 2008 @ 10:46:21 AM

in my opinion the whole series is a waste of time.

but I guess it makes sense to go from modern times to World war II, maybe cod6 well say something like "LOLOLOL we made a time machine to go back in time and now we r go into space"


Comment #57 by Asha-D
Wednesday, September 17, 2008 @ 12:05:57 PM

Lol @55:

I take it you never played COD2 online then. I did, for 4 years in a rifles only server on the PC version of the game. It was and still is one of the most played online shooters.

Also, and please for give me, as I don't regularly post here, is it common for illiterate ar-tards to post messages containing sentences such as 'y is ave1' and 'wots the diffents' does it take that much longer to write words in full.

As for BF:BC I thought it was a shocking game. I don't own it but I have played it and I found it to be complete and utter garbage, just like the other battlefield games.

Comment #58 by wesker-

As long CoD6 has punchy weapons and a scenario like "Modern Warfare" I am in. Heck, I even felt sorry for Jackson... :(

i hope its not futuristic like halo gayest game ever... i hope its abit more modern the cod4 but not 2 far forward.

Comment #63 by rsxdelerium
Wednesday, September 17, 2008 @ 06:56:05 PM

They should stop this dumbass switching every other game. I wouldn't be surprised if CoD6 was futuristic, it would even be kinda cool .. if it's not in space or something rediculous. BF2142 isn't such a bad game, if they had futuristic weapons it might be interesting.

Comment #65 by ShirleyPeanut
Wednesday, September 17, 2008 @ 10:24:10 PM

A spacey COD would be terrible (think of the taste)

Maybe like 50 years in the future, but I think it should stay in the past.

Also why is everyone hating COD5 already looks ok in my view, Vehicles back in is a bad idea though.

Comment #66 by FELIXjk007
Thursday, September 18, 2008 @ 11:55:51 PM

cod in space? sounds like a muppet road movie instead of one of the most successful gaming series being brought to its knees!! If they are running out of ideas why not set it in the Balkans conflict, or the Falklands, or even some dodgy desert storm spin-off? anything but SPACE??!! if I wanted to play Halo then I would load Halo, I want to play Call of Duty!!

Thursday, October 23, 2008 @ 02:30:38 AM

I LOVE how people are knocking Treyarch and the WWII genre but are playing the shit out of the beta. News flash tards, its the same engine as modern and they will not stray away from the successful formula of COD 4. Its mandatory. Just because its a little harder for people to shoot/aim their M1's instead of being a twitchshooter with their P90's gets there panties in a bunch! CHILL OUT!

Comment #69 by xspect
Thursday, November 06, 2008 @ 06:30:02 PM

i dont get why ppl hate WWII and Treyach... world wars was the most important war of all. if we didnt win that shit then we wouldnt be here today. WWII is more intense then modern warfare.

Comment #70 by BladesX

Yes but the modern weapons are more favorable amoung the majority of the COD fans.

Comment #71 by MBurns22
Tuesday, November 18, 2008 @ 11:43:28 AM

probobly going to be a future game cause in modern warfare there was ONE WW2 weapon(maybe predicting the next game!) and in WAW there is a RAY GUN! they have ray guns in the future so maybe it will me Call Of Duty 6: Future Warfare, Future War, or maybee it will be a World War 20 game!
