Talk:Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare

If we're using words like "resembles" or "based upon" for every entry on a video game page, I'm not certain about its eligibility. Halo and Turok and Monday Night Combat were disqualified under the same criteria. --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:37, 11 June 2014 (EDT)

How did the Crysis games qualify then? Of course, it's really too early to tell much about AW's guns until closer to release.AgentGumby (talk) 13:44, 11 June 2014 (EDT)

It's one thing to just change the name, either because you're lazy or you don't want to pay the licensing fees, but it's another to just invent guns. We allow one, not the other. But you're right, it's early. --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:54, 11 June 2014 (EDT)

Speaking of...

I'm pretty sure that in the reveal trailer, there was a brief shot of a Beretta ARX-160 and a holstered pistol that resembled the Steyr M9-A1 was also spotted. One of the devs even mentioned a SPAS 12 beign in the game I believe. Because you know, a shotgun that ceased production over 50 years before the game is supposed to be set is still considered relevant in the mid 21st century. --PyramidHead (talk) 16:34, 11 June 2014 (EDT)

Ak12?

Hiya brand new member so hopefully im doing this right? (Fingers crossed).

I wanted your guys opinions but i think the ak in advanced warfare is actually an ak12 not a 74. I have only caught a glimpse of the gas block and front sight from the reveal but im pretty sure its an ak12. The rifle can been seen in the hands of an enemy npc in lagos, Nigeria.

I know that the latest trailer and image on the page shows the bakelite magazine and i cant explain this, but given the advanced timeframe the game takes place in it would make more sense for an ak12 to appear. I have also read that COD games tend to re-skin some weapons from earlier instalments and of course the ak12 was in ghosts, but the 74 has not appeared in any COD game to date.

Also i noticed that the ARX160 appeared briefly in the same trailer, used by a few NPC's,mainly the soldier thrown over the railings.

I am using an iphone and unsure how to post screen-caps, despite reading the tips. If anyone can help i will happily post the images here in the discussion tab.

The thing is that CoD doesn't really care about timelines; as you can see in the Modern Warfare series, the AK-47 was still being used by Russian troops in 2011-2016, despite the weapon having been outdated from more than 50 years ago. By the way the AK-74 appeared in some CoD games, but only in the DS games Modern Warfare: Mobilized and Modern Warfare 3: Defiance. And next time please sign your posts using 4 tildes. --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 05:51, 27 June 2014 (EDT)

Well i agree with the comment on the ak47, but i have noticed that since black ops 2 that COD is trying to keep up to date with its firearms. whether that has anything to do with the resurgence of battlefield on consoles who knows. Furthermore my point about re-skinning guns remains valid as the DS games are completely different franchises and not on the main stream consoles. Still convinced its an ak12 but i appreciate that as i cant upload my screen caps i cant justify my view. Sorry about the signing title, very new to the site. Forrest1985 (talk)

Not my picture, though this is definitely an AK-12. http://oi58.tinypic.com/qnk4me.jpg --Lemonificent (talk)

The one at the right appears to be a CZ 805 BREN. Any ideas? --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 18:32, 28 June 2014 (EDT)
