So…Infinite Warfare huh? A far-flung space-based voyage that may be seen as the ultimate in future sci-fi transitioning for the lucratively-successful FPS Game news franchise. Pardon me if my words look or even sound flat, but we’ve been here plenty times before: a reveal of a rather (it has to be said) obtuse intensity that surprises no one yet still locks fans in deep, deep debate. Some relish the new look, others are a lot less pleased. Yet it’s Modern Warfare Remastered that seems to be the talk of the town over Infinity Ward’s new title. A supposed return to what many perceive as the best entry in the series — a game that revolutionized the first-person shooter and gave birth to an online multiplayer system that still persists to this very day. And while many may take to the word “remaster” with a possible rolling of the eyes (for understandably good reason), is a bundled-in return to Call of Duty 4’s setting, premise and very nature of modern military shooting really all that bad?

Breach flashes are quite different from other agents. He needs a surface to flash from and cannot flash without it, which means he can’t flash in an open area which doesn’t have any objects. This kind of restricts his abilities. However, on maps such as Fracture and Split, he can make enemy players run circles and can easily support play

As such, if the model was put back out there for those to try — albeit with a nice new lick of figurative paint — I would be interested to see how today’s player-base adapts (or returns) to the former structure. There are so many possible benefits in reviving a forgotten format. Less tactics to diversify, less opportunity to dominate the leaderboard outside of pure gun-wielding, twitch-shooting, internet-connection-abiding capability. It means the opponent team has a better chance of adapting to the changing circumstances…or embarrassing themselves evermore, as the case may be. I won’t lie to you; would I miss (if we’re limiting ourselves to the Modern Warfare trilogy here) instances of getting an Emergency Airdrop and anxiously waiting for the numerous care packages to drop, knowing full well the enemy team might rush me? Yes. Would I miss flying MW3’s Recon Drone and tagging enemy players…or…spamming the tag button on the same player just to annoy them? Yes.
But if it means a shift in infrastructure as a nice accompaniment to CoD’s current build, why not? Yet if we look at this in the long-term, from a complete series perspective, how will this affect the spread of the entire player-base and as a result, would this ultimately alter the possible player-count for Infinite Warfare’s activity across its many iterations? It’s unclear whether or not the next entry will follow along similar lines and continue to support previous-gen consoles, but while Ghost’s PS3/Xbox 360 releases could be regarded as developer uncertainty on the popularity of new consoles at the time, its safe to say seeing Black Ops 3 not a total eighth-gen title was boggling given the sizeable sales figures of both PS4 & Xbox One units by 2015. As such, if this remaster goes one step further and evolves into a full three-game series collection, will this only spread the player-base further? Thinning it into numerously ongoing titles and thus, raise an interesting debate on whether past or present ideals are in fact the more popular go-to for an annual multiplayer shoot-fest?
