E3 is behind the corner and soon Respawn Entertainment will reveal their brand new IP.

So far we have only seen these two blurry teaser images that someone on Respawn forums managed to enhance:

According to rumors it would be Xbox One exclusive but in the Respawn's site it says they are developing "a multi-platform product based on new video game IP and funded through its publishing deal with Electronic Arts, one of the top publishers in the industry."

We have heard from EA that Respawn would be working on a sci-fi shooter. Then Kotaku informed rumor that the game would be about heavily-armed foot soldiers fight against giant exosekeltons - Titans. Earlier Respawn Entertainment had trademarked word "Titan".

Anyway soon the creators of Call of Duty will unveil the next great online multiplayer shooter.

Well ok lets call this new toolbox but it still crappy compared to other new toolboxes.

I can't agree more. I'm excited for the next-gen multiplayer experience. I think the "lean over a wall feature" will be a nice mechanism to have, although we don't know how to activate the animation (yet).

Lean has been in every Call of Duty game on PC expect MW2 and MW3.

I'm not saying it looks like CoD 4 but the engine is still only modification of id Tech 3 from 1999. They simply don't have time to develop engine from ground up. The old basis of the engine is bottleneck for them to add some features like more advanced physics and graphical high tech.

They did improve lighting and shadows, that improve how the game look a lot. Also with new consoles they can move to high res textures (from 720p to 1080p). And they have decent AA that softens the corners but it won't be able to compete with graphics nor physics.

The improvement for sure is great as we move to new console era but there is no doubt other games in next gen will look a lot better. Frostbite 3, CryEngine 3, Unreal Engine 3 and id Tech 6 among others will be vastly superior.

From the footage we have already seen there is some problems with the Call of Duty: Ghosts lightning.

You won't see a huge leap in graphic. The only thing that will change right now is how much can be seen on a screen at one time. Shadows and lighting effects are what is really going to come to life. The 360 is what is really lacking in. I would expect that after the developer get used to developing on these new consoles graphics will become almost life like.

Actually... it will be a signaficant improvement in graphics. FOV will be greater but so will macro details. They are able to add several layers of texture. You combine this with the vastly improved lighting engines and we are in for a treat.

The key is if the devs have had enough time to learn it... Ghosts II in 2015 will make this title look so poor.

Its not new engine tough. They still just modified the old one. For the dynamic maps, has anyone seen what they are actually, it could be just few doors breaking or trees falling all we know. Its improvement for CoD for sure but this engine is severely lacking on graphics and capability of the other next gen engines. After all its basis is 14 years old.

NO new Call of Duty engine. :D

They didn't make a new engine they still only tweaked the Quake 3 engine from 1999. I can't believe how can they promote it as a new next generation engine when its still based on and modified from 14 years old engine. No wonder their improvements were only lightning, softer corners and fish AI

Respawn is developing a multi-platform product based on new video game IP and funded through its publishing deal with Electronic Arts, one of the top publishers in the industry.

From their own site.

We need one here, don't we?

"We are all excited about the next COD, and discussions on these forums are great. Posts like these drown out relevant posts about COD."

Its off-topic there is about 100 sections to talk about "relevant posts about COD", OT is that one section where we can enjoy not having constant COD posts.

Hope JeepChick you will cut some slack and not lock this one, plz

Gladly there are many new PC games with mod and mapping support with real dedicated server support.

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 22 May 2013 16:22:52 GMT

They had designed server browser for MW2 and dedicated server support. Activision told them to not use dedicated servers or they didn't have time to finish them up.

Indeed, we can be glad the old IW is producing a new IP that they want create and have longer time to work on the game. It wouldn't be nice if they still had to shift CoD game after another every other year.

Also, when the new Xbox is launched and you are bumbed that you can't play your old games, then maybe next gen isn't for you. I know for a fact once it comes out my black ops 2 will be retired and ill be playing ghosts. Could care less about old games.

Because you only play CoD, sad

So you are saying it will have lower requirements than Black Ops 2? lol

Re: Question

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 22 May 2013 13:16:27 GMT

It's not yet on Steam and do yourself a favour there is no rush to pre-order. Check what Ghosts is actually going to offer and what other games will be coming. E3 is behind the corner.
