GameTech: Call of Duty finds new frontiers

with Ronan Jennings

IN SPACE, no one can hear you stream. ‘Call of Duty’ (COD) has gone from Black Ops to black holes, and the result is the best series entry for years.

At least, that much is true for the story campaign, which takes COD from infantry and beyond to infinity and beyond. This year, the setting is a far-flung future where humans have taken to the stars. An attack from an insurgent group called the Settlement Defence Front (SDF) leaves Earth crippled, with only two star cruisers to repel the encroaching forces. One of those carriers is helmed by you, Nick Reyes.
