Why Infinite Warfare’s Space Battles Are More Grounded Than You Think
Military accuracy is usually much more challenging for a design team than it might seem, especially when your game is set on a futuristic space-faring vessel.
But as we found out during our time at Infinity Ward, what appeared to be straight forward sci-fi was actually an intricate balance of NASA technology and Navy customs. Aside from spending time aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier, the team behind Infinite Warfare had Navy SEALs, admirals, and the department of defense as military consultants. Check out the interview below to learn more.
To learn more about Call of Duty's relationship with the military, including their veteran support program check out our feature on the Call of Duty Endowment charity.
Our exclusive coverage on Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare will continue all throughout June, so keep checking the hub for deep dives into the weapons, characters, and interviews as we journey to the stars with Infinity Ward's new take on the longstanding series.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
