Rumor: Sledgehammers Call of Duty game will take place...in space?! WHAT?!

ASK_Story · 2010-03-03 02:30:00

This is just a rumor but here are the details.http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3178193Sledgehammer is being lead by Glen Schofield and Michael Condrey, both of whom worked on Dead Space, and their new game will 'extend the franchise into the action-adventure genre.' And while this is far from confirmed, we're hearing that it might be the long-rumored 'Call of Duty in space.' In the meantime, 1UP's sources tell us that Infinity Ward will continue handling the recently announced Modern Warfare 2 map packs as well as future downloadable content, though plans beyond that are unclear.Also, here's some more detail on what might've happened at IW:BingeGamer has reported that Zampella and West were shopping a new IP with a rival publisher, and indeed our source told us that the team was 'supposed to know what our next IP would be on Monday.' Instead, he said, 'we found a bunch of bouncers at our doors.'Activision also wanted Modern Warfare 3 from Infinity Ward, our source told us, but that the team 'wasn't too thrilled about that idea.'If this is for real, I wonder who's stupid idea it was to make a sci-fi action/adventure game and just slap on the name Call of Duty on it for brand recognition!Ridiculous!

Does it have something to do with the fact that Call of Duty is supposed to be somewhat more realistic than those games?

Have you played through the story of these games? You can throw realism out of the window. If realism is still hanging off the ledge then regenerating health and perks should certainly finish it off.

Realistic in terms of setting. That's why i said SOMEWHAT. Not COMPLETELY.
