CALL OF DUTY: GHOSTS DETAILS (Escapist News Now)
The game was announced just a few weeks ago after numerous leaks, and was shown to the public for the first time today at the Xbox unveiling event. Infinity Ward wanted to stress the improvements the new engine allowed them to make from detailing in animation to customization in multiplayer.
While they weren't completely pulling the current back, they did mention that the game will feature Ghosts who are a super elite fighting force and the narrative will open with a mass event. This mass event is described as some sort of attack that will cripple America. Infinity Ward also showed off one of your new teammates.
It's Man's Best Friend! Yes canine units will play an important role in your squad throughout the campaign. Even though dogs have appeared in Call of Duty before, these pups are inspired by the dogs used by Navy Seal teams and will help you with various tasks to help you take down your enemies.
The new engine will help developers create new levels of animation detail in everything, like your character's hands and the dirt beneath his fingernails, scars, and wounds. Weapons will have more polish as well such as highlighting parts like screws, grips, and other textures. There will be dynamic maps with player driven actions and more customization options than ever before including customizable headwear and other gear in multiplayer.
