The art of war may be thousands of years old, but on the battlegrounds of the future combat has become a big business. Where men and women once stood in defense of their nation the employees of Private Military Corporations (PMCs) are deployed, armed with the latest technologies and an arsenal of advanced weapons. Soldiers no longer need to specialize in any area of combat — equipped with powerful exoskeletons, they become the masters of all battlefield skills. In this new age of privatized combat, one PMC stands at the forefront of the industry, the juggernaut Atlas Corporation. Founded and led by Jonathan Irons, perhaps the most powerful man in the world, Atlas Corporation represents the evolution of modern combat. Under the oversight of Irons and men like him, the rules of warfare have been completely rewritten, and national borders change with the demands of the highest bidders. Do you have what it takes to navigate this ever-changing military landscape and answer the Call of Duty?The latest installment in the popular combat series, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare plunges you into the combat of the future, orchestrated and fought by PMCs with the latest technology in armor, weaponry and tactics.

Step onto the battlefield in a powerful exoskeleton that provides a massive force multiplier, delivers strategic freedom and enhances even the most adept soldier's abilities with optimized movement, jumping and grappling, covert cloaking abilities and biomechanics that take your strength, awareness, endurance and speed to the next level. Destroy opposing forces with an advanced arsenal that allows you to dominate the battlefield and all-new equipment, abilities and perks that put you at the forefront of combat technology. Conduct missions with hoverbikes, highly specialized drones and other new vehicles that enhance your mobility. Attack enemy forces with tried-and-true standard ammunition or step up your assault with new directed-energy weapons. The future of war is upon you — are you ready to play your part?

I purchased this game only because it was on sale at a deep discount as I never buy games when they first come out. The graphics are very good and clean but as is the norm now there are way too many story movies and training was way too long and therefore takes away from actual game play. As for me I never play online and I sure do wish that they would go back to the WWII versions as all this futuristic stuff is hogwash. The game is just way too short for the money.

Decent single player. Thought they coulda done without some of the movies. Multiplayer is fun as well. My laptop is about 4 years old and the game runs pretty well on mostly high settings. Lowest I saw the fps dip was around 44. Seems to stay around 80fps give or take Laptop i7 2630qm 2.0-2.9Ghz, GTX560M 2GB,12GB RAM

While it's still more Call of Duty, it's COD at its best. Fast and fun, with lots of cool gameplay mechanics. Worth picking up for new comers and fans of the series alike. If you're like me and skipped Ghosts and Black Ops 2 due to "burn out", this is a good entry to return on.

This game is everything it was advertised to be. Amazing graphics, great article player story, awesome multi-player, tight controls, Kevin spacey and John malcovich! Be prepared to have an awesome computer and graphics card to run this. All max settings, with txaa, at 1050p, it'll need a 960 and a decent quad core. Play on!

Pretty graphics, great gameplay that is the fast-paced and fun specially in the new Exo-suits although this mostly applies to multiplayer which by the way it has a lot of fun game modes and plenty of customizations for your character and your place now with pick 13 the campaign is now and Oscar worthy story but voice actors such as Kevin Spacey, Troy Baker, it could be worse. all things said I'd give it about a 7 out of 10 and I wouldn't purchase it until it's on sale.

This campaign is fun, better than ghosts. I also like the multiplayer, but I feel there are latency issues more with this release than others. Overall a fun game that I continue to play.

The maker and publisher (Infinity Ward, Sledgehammer, Activision) have been known for poor quality control when it comes to PC games and installers. I have had problems installing COD MW3, Ghosts, and now this one. The download for this game is around 40GB. No idea why it is this big but I blame the lack of file compression. Gave Call of Duty a chance again.. And this happens. Back to Battlefield and DICE.

Yep. It just gets better. Needed to knock the video resolution down to make it less choppy, but that's due to my being cheap in PC building and is not a strike against the game. You get to kill people without getting arrested, so it's all good.
