Notes (this will be updated as the show is going on):
0) On the first glance, the game's look and feel are similar to Black Ops II (HUD, menus, create-a-class, etc);
1) Sledgehammer started working on CoD:AW 3 years ago;
2) First impression of game play: feels like Titanfall - Titans - Parkour + CoD formula;
3) Biggest innovation: movement - boost jump, boost dodge, boost slide, boost slam, dash, etc. (I am excited about this because I am always a big fan of movement elements in FPS encounter);
4) Rewards: besides XP, players are also rewarded with "Supply Drops" (based on time played) of different categories: a) Weapon Loot (feels like a step forward from the idea of Amped weapons in Titanfall), b) Character Gear, for personalization purposes, c) Reinforcements (one time use, feels like ability enhancing burn cards in Titanfall);
5) Direct energy weapons in addition to projectile weapons;
6) Pick 10 system (now pick 13) includes Scorestreaks. You can opt to choose more or fewer or no scorestreaks;
7) Scorestreaks are customizable. Stock ones can be obtained easier (i.e.: less score requirements), advanced ones are more deadly but harder to obtain;
8) Co-op scorestreaks so "lesser" skilled players can experience high level scorestreaks;
9) "Firing range" feature for players to try out things (looks like a great way to test things instead of having to use a private match);
10) "Virtual lobby" feature to show case how "cool" you are with all the stuff you earn;
11) 4 maps are revealed: not surprisingly, vertical movement is a major design concern;
12) 12 game modes total. (Including but not limited to) Classic game modes: TDM, KC, DOM (round based like BO2), CTF, SnD, Hardpoint; New ones: Uplink (imagine basketball), Momentum(?)
13) As in BO2: "Ranked" playlist, CoDCast, etc.;
14) Preorder will get the game 1 day earlier: 24 hour early access "day zero" edition with Double XP;

Seems very heavily Treyarch influenced.

TL;DR: imagine take BO2, + next gen graphics, + new movements (boost jump, boost dodge, boost slide, boost slam, dash) in more 3D minded map environments, and that's pretty much the gist of the game. If you missed the show live, I am sure you'll be able to see the rerun everywhere on the Internet, e.g.: www.charlieintel.com

This doesn't even look like CoD. It's Titanfall 2 made in the CoD engine.

Yes because Titanfail game play doesn't revolve around robots.

it's like CoD with boost jumps and lasers
I think that it looks pretty cool. I am still going to wait a while before deciding if I'll buy it, but it looks a lot more interesting than Ghosts did

Most likely I am going to buy it, but probably not on day zero (or week 1). I'll wait and see what the community feel about the game and only buy it if it is solid.

That was actually pretty impressive.
The only red flag I'm seeing is Toughness.

Still looks like more fun than Destiny. Dat spinny hellstorm doe. IMHO both Titanfall and Destiny are more fun than this Should be a solid game though. The main thing I am concerned about is BO2 style overpowered scorestreaks. As a mediocre player, I probably will opt to spend less points on Scorestreaks to have a more powerful soldier to counter the scorestreak whores. In BO2 I can't get to anything beyond VSAT anyway, which is the line between mediocre ones and overpowered ones.

If we have BO2 OP scorestreaks, then streaker will ruin the game.
Lol, streakers ruining Titan of Duty.

And the game sucks. How the fuck are the expecting to cater to the Esports crowd without bringing back a feature that never should have been cut in the first place? If anything they should have been working on expanding the mode further.

Scorestreaks now cost points in the "Pick 13" system, this can be both positive and negative: On the positive side: players who have hard time getting the scorestreaks can opt out of scorestreaks and use the additional points on perks & attachments. This gives them some advantage over streakers; On the negative side: streakers can now have > 3 scorestreaks (at least 4, not sure if 4 is the limit). As a result, they probably can get streaks going more often; I am hoping for a scorestreak-free playlist (but with one time use reinforcements enabled), to have a Titfanfall feel. No camp ing, just run around and gun fights.
