I hope Advanced Warfare is BO2 sub-par entertaining to BO2 competitive. Ghosts competitive was terrible and boring to watch. BO2 was more competitive friendly to me.

I hope they stepped it up from last year. I actually hated Ghost. I always enjoyed their Warfare series!

Its really cool that they have this. We can finally see a team play another team instead of the same teams due to time issues. Considering AW's new movements and gameplay, i think it will be very fun to watch.

Most people hated watching ghosts because it was very bland and all the competitive players were just pissed off at the game. That's why it wasn't as successful as BO2.

I have a feeling that Advanced Warfare will be amazing.

I love every COD but it would be great if Advanced Warfare brought something new into the game

Yeah i wish they would implement something new too. League play is nice but maybe something with teams.

Didn't care for Ghosts myself. MW3 is still my favorite game in the series, hopefully it plays just like it.

What system are you thinking about buying it on?

This will be very interesting on what will happen when Advanced Warfare will come out to a pro league. I will want to see how hyped the game will be and how the audience will react.

I can't wait for this to start. AW is the first COD game that I have gotten into the competitive scene. There are many other games that I watch the competitions, but this would be the first COD. I have gotten some glimpses at previous MLG tournaments, but have never really cared about it. I have extremely high hopes for this tournament, and I hope that it doesn't let me down. To be honest, AW isn't my favorite COD, but that doesn't matter, I am still excited for it to start. I will definitely be tuning into the majority of these matches.

I really can't wait for this new season start. I really enjoy playing all the COD games, but AW is by far the most enjoyable. I'm very really looking forward to watching the competitive field. It's also really good to see more and more games get into the e-sport business.
