Overwatch is Blizzard Entertainments most popular FPS in the companys history, featuring a heroes based multiplayer experience. Players can select certain heroes and play as them in many a select number of modes across a variety of maps.

The leak claims that Black Ops 4s MP is similar to the Overwatch experience, which lines up with information that charlieINTEL has heard about Black Ops 4s MP mode.

The leak also claims that there are some similar elements to the Lawbreakers title, a game which was basically a replica of Overwatch developed by Boss Key. The leak states that Black Ops 4 features a mixture of boots on the ground and advanced movements with many changes to the games core systems.

Heres the full leak that the user posted:

New Multiplayer information has been confirmed by more than one source so I can now talk about that more publicly. As of two days ago Multiplayer was in the worst state you have ever seen a Call of Duty multiplayer mode. Sources who have play-tested the mode claim that it is less like a call of duty mode and more like a Call of Duty Overwatch or a Call of Duty Lawbreakers. The Lawbreakers reference is incredibly apt considering what he told me next. Remember how I said the game was simultaneously boots on the ground and advanced movement? Well I can elaborate on that a little more too. The game was going to take the hero or specialist system from Black Ops 3 and take it to the next level. Perks were basically removed completely, and had instead been morphed into a strange kind of Kill Streak. Normal Killstreaks as we know them, for example harrier jets or chopper gunners, didnt in fact exist in this version of Black Ops 4. Instead you got highly powerful perks. One of which was a Movement Alteration. It literally changed your movement from Boots on The Ground to something very strongly resembling Black Ops 3s advanced movement systems.

This fell flat with playtesters. They didnt like it at all. It was deemed an unfair portrayal of Call of Duty, and something that wouldnt resonate with fans in the slightest. So, as of the last play test, things are changing. Actual Killstreaks are being entered into the game and the hero systems are being scaled back a little bit. What this does mean is that the game is in fact beginning to resemble more and more the state of the game in Black Ops 3. What this means for the future of BO4 I do not know. Currently my information does not stretch to what the mode will become, only to what it very recently was. With the community reveal only weeks away I am truly concerned for Call of Duty Black Ops 4, and even more concerned for Treyarch as a development studio. This is tighter than it has ever been.

We do caution that we are unable to verify other parts of the persons leak. Some of the other information like Black Ops 4 MP development being in a chaotic state, we are not able to verify as of this writing, so take that information with a grain of salt.

We know that, but apparently Call of Duty's marketing team doesn't.

Should release a "Call of Duty: Sit and Smoke" version, since that's all people do playing that game.
---

The series that should become an MMOFPS instead going after Overwatch

why are developers so backwards

A big shake up would be nice

I really wish they wouldn't do this.

I enjoyed the single player campaigns

copying the battle royale meme and now chucking some overwatch in there for good measure.
lmao.

lmao.

They've run out of ideas so now they're just blatantly copying whatever shooters happen to be popular.

That sounds fucking awful. One of the biggest things people hated about CoD WW2 was how limiting the division system was and how people didn't have as much freedom in creating classes for different playstyles. They literally just released a gigantic patch last week that shook the system and gave us that freedom in WW2, which substantially improved the game... and now they want to give us even less class creation freedom in the next game? Seriously? They must really have no idea what they're doing.

BO1 and BO2 had great campaigns with interesting stories. Not sure why they had to just throw it away for 3 and 4.

Is it seriously called "Black Ops IIII"?
