MULTIPLAYER:
During today's E3 Coliseum panel, Infinity Ward provided our first look at MW's multiplayer. These two screenshots are all in-game and while nothing too hugely special, the game continues to look solid visuals-wise. No direct feed screenshots unfortunately. These low-res ones will have to do.

There's more interviews to come in the next few days so I'll update the OP as necessary. Shame we won't get to see any gameplay. Really don't know why Infinity Ward are being all secretive with this game.

im so confused how they're revealing this game
It's wack, by now we'd have news on the beta, some hefty gameplay and a look at the campaign but we've got none of that. I think Sony not showing up to E3 this year really fucked IW over considering there's no chance they could have showed the game off at the MS conference due to the marketing rights sitting with Sony.

They're not showing anything else at E3?

Shooting through the wall is interesting for multi in CoD. Hopefully not a copy of Siege mechanics, but more like classic gameplay with the ability to shoot through walls.

Why are they being so secretive though? Genuinely curious. This isn't a scenario where the game is launching a year from now, it literally comes out in 4 months.

I was fully expecting an NBA Finals reveal this year too. It's june and still no MP teasing or anything

Doesn't help that Infinity Ward is the only CoD dev I really follow closely, it's been torture this year.

Edit: Whoa, the multiplayer reveal for Infinite Warfare wasn't until September. Okay then. 3 months to go

Every other E3 saw Call of Duty gameplay demos, of the campaign or online. This one could not give us 5 minutes of a campaign mission games media folks saw 4 weeks ago. They mentioned at Geoff Keighleys panel that they want it to look perfect when they show it. I bet it looks just fine today.

This is one of my few disappointments of E3 this time. And I thought this E3 specifically had more games for me personally than last years.

Fucking rad they got T'Challa

Don't know if I'll get this day one, but I'm very interested

It's 4 months away. If the game doesn't look perfect at this point then I don't even know what to say.

No gameplay of MP, campaign or spec ops. No details of a beta.

This is just so strange.
So many devs are playing coy with their releases this time around. I don't know what going on.

Honestly all the popular and loved characters are ones you don't play as in this series.
And most (if not all protagonists in Cod) don't speak at all, so feels kind of wasted to have her as the main character where it'll all be in first person where you'll never see your character.

This will have voiced protagonists, but definitely true that other characters are more important. And get more screen time (lol).

Yes they do, what was the last CoD game you played?

I've played every Cod. I don't honestly remember the MC talking. Though I have not been a fan of the SP in Cod in ages so maybe I've just forgotten. Pretty sure it's usually just the supporting cast that have most of the exposure and voice work.

This will have voiced protagonists, but definitely true that other characters are more important. And get more screen time (lol).
It could be a huge change from past cods, but I expect it to just be like the rest.

So did Chadwick Boseman not wanna do full mocap? Why is he only voicing a character? Little strange, you'd think he would be in most of the marketing lol

Lol, I just realized that there's a giant Call of Duty poster outside the E3 building of this game, only to be shown behind closed doors to the press.

I mean was just joking but you really think pre ordering a game that you have zero game off is a good thing?
This is CoD. They might add/remove one or two mechanics for each game, but the gunplay pretty much stays the same. I don't need to see the gameplay to know I'm going to like it.

I think its some sort of Sony Exclusive/Activison Problem to show at E3. Gameplay was always at E3 Sony press conference since the marketing deal.
