Sledgehammer's Glen Schofield tired of Call of Duty engine complaints


Sledgehammer Games, co-developer of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, brushes engine critics off their shoulders. Their general manager, Glen Schofield, compares the Modern Warfare 2 engine to a Porsche in a recent CVG interview, stating, "it is streamlined, everything in it is perfectly freaking clean." 

"If you put Modern Warfare 2 next to Modern Warfare 3 you would see a huge difference," Schofield added. "Look at all the character models, look at all the gun models, look at the reflections, look at the water. There is so much that we've added, so when someone says 'cut and paste', I don't even want to talk to them because they don't know. They just don't know. They have no idea."

Schofield knows the game is being sold, not the engine, so it's understandable why he'll pan engine criticisms. The Unreal Engine 3 has been around for several years and tons of AAA games used it. People pay for entertaining games, not technical engines.
