Following on from the reveal of the multiplayer part of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, we caught up professional gamers from Team Envyus and found out their opinions on the changes coming to the next chapter in the CoD series.
After having spent some time playing Advanced Warfare at Gamescom, Jordan "Jkap" Kaplan had this to say about the exoskeleton abilities that were shown off properly in Cologne:
"I'm not sure how it plays into eSports, we're going to see how that is. I felt like it may almost be too much movement, like we were playing and people were jumping and dashing, and it's so tough to shoot people in mid-air going three different directions in the span of one second. So we'll see how it plays out, but it's definitely cool to see it, I like the way it's implemented."
So the jury's still out whether these new features will be embraced by the eSports community. What we can say is that the exoskeletons look cool, and we're looking forward to trying them out for ourselves, even if they don't resonate strongly with the pro-player community.
