Call of Duty could suffer at hands of Star Citizen

CALL of Duty may be one of the most popular games on the market right now, but that could change later this year thanks to upcoming title Star Citizen.

 

Black Ops 3 has been a resounding success following its release last year

 

The $100 million space simulator from Cloud Imperium Games is one of the most anticipated games of 2016 and is set to take the PC world by storm.

In fact, Cloud Imperium Games are so confident that Star Citizen will be a resounding success that creator Chris Roberts believes the game's FPS mode will be 'more lethal' than Call of Duty.

'Star Marine' will allow players to incorporate stealth into their tactics, giving the FPS mode more depth and ultimately an advantage over the latest Call of Duty title 'Black Ops 3'.

 

Star Citizen is making a bid to become the top FPS

We are trying to make the FPS gameplay itself be more tactical, less just 'run and gun'

Roberts explained: "[Stealth] is part of the core design. We are trying to make the FPS gameplay itself be more tactical, less just 'run and gun'. Especially since it is more lethal than you would normally expect with a Call of Duty or something.

"We actually have some gadgets which are good for stealth and distractions. We're going through and reactivating and polishing them from Star Marine and they will also debut with Star Marine.

  

The space-sim will be released later this year

 

The incorporation of stealth will set Star Citizen aside from other FPS games

 

"But we have the hologram gadget where you can put up a hologram version of yourself and you can be off sneaking somewhere else.

"We are going to have definite things that will help you with hiding your radar and noise signature, or heat signature, and stuff like that. So we definitely want that.

"We have vents where you can sneak around or crawl around in and outflank people and do stuff like that."
