Activision community manager says Call of Duty: Ghosts is “more science than science fiction”, relating to ‘Rods from God’
Posted on 11 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
The single player trailer for Call of Duty: Ghosts that was revealed yesterday showcased a bit of the story that we didn’t know about previously: Something called ‘Rods of God’ would be used as the stage for the apocalyptic events in the game. ‘Rods of God’ are effectively just giant cylinders dropped from low-earth-orbit that smack into the ground and cause mass devastation– and Activision community manager Dan Amrich says it’s not terribly fictional:
“Say what you will about its over-the-top gameplay and action-movie attitude, but Call of Duty still plays in the realm of plausibility.”

Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag uses a new multiplayer engine
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag is using a new multiplayer engine. Game design head Tim Browne confirmed the news to Examiner, and noted that the technology was adapted to work on all consoles. This will be the first multiplayer engine change since Brotherhood.
Browne said:
“We’ve had the same engine since Brotherhood, and for this year we integrated a new engine that works on current gen and next-gen consoles. Then we did upscaled, specific development for next-gen, so the character models are four times higher textures and polygons than the normal ones. There are very specific next-gen features which we’re catering for as well, which you won’t have on current gen. Not just graphical improvements, but certain other things.”
