Call of Duty Vanguard

antijoke · 12 Aug 2021 at 07:40

Well, well it’s that time of year again (a lot later than it used to be) that details of the next Call of Duty are coming out…

So, it’s rumoured it’s going to be called Call of Duty Vanguard and will be revealed via Warzone (with an in game event) on August 19th.

It’s being developed by Sledgehammer games and is set in World War 2 and rumoured to release early November.

Not another WWII game.

The last one was awful - Might be a Battfield year for me.

nvm wrong section.

Rumours are that it's in quite bad shape and that it was pushed forward a year so IW could work on MW2 for another year. So SHG have essentially been thrown under the bus. The fact we haven't even been given a name yet isn't a good sign.
I'm not interested anyway. WW2 is the second worst COD ever made after Infinite Borefare. Another WW2 game from SHG simply isn't appealing at all.

Battlefield is looking good from what I’ve seen.

edit - as for the topic, bored of ww2 set games. unfortunately.

I quite liked the 2017 WW2 game on Xbox One and generally have preferred WW2 over some of the more modern games.
That said I've spent more time paying Warzone since launch than anything else (and far, far more than I ever expected)

that’s old news, people are now changing their tune to say SHG may have pulled it out the bag.

We hear this all the time and then a few months later everybody is moaning about how bad the game is. Plus their last game was utter garbage. It's BF6 for me this year.

Oh 100% with you on that.

I am keeping an eye on this just because I want to see how bad it is :cry:

Games need to move away from WW2 for a good couple of years. This is way too soon after WW2 and I'd expect this to be trash after their last outing.

Interested for a sequel to MW, mainly for the campaign but outside of this I feel COD multiplayer has lost part of it's magic since the strong implementation of SBMM. It's way too sweaty and not very enjoyable.

Stars are aligning for Battlefield this year!

Ww2 & SBMM... No thanks. Roll on BF.

Supercow · 13 Aug 2021 at 00:51

If I never see another WW1 or WW2 themed game, it will be too soon.

Splitgate, Battlefield and Halo has me covered. COD franchise needs to pull it's finger out.

RedStarRiot · 13 Aug 2021 at 08:51

Looks like I'll be playing modern warfare for another year. So sick of WW2 era games.

Call of Dollar is no longer the way

Jesus H Christ, the PS alpha is just full of sweaty nerds

McBain · 28 Aug 2021 at 22:04

More interested in this than BF, I'll probably pick it up for the SP and zombies.

No way, I'm totally shocked.

Will buy for zombies only!

Since COD 3, which was 2006 I think, I will not be purchasing my annual Call of Duty game. You could say it's an end of an era! Like others, the releases over the past years have gradually got repetitive, lazy and just boring. I tried the beta of Vanguard, I felt like I was playing a 10 year old game, it's just the same old trash. I'm not sure when I last enjoyed MP COD, potentially BLOPS3?

I will still play Warzone, but I am shifting my attention to Battlefield and hope that is decent for FPS multiplayer.
