Sledgehammer Games’ co-founder Michael Condrey confirmed today that the studio’s upcoming first-person shooter, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, is set to feature bots that the player can go up against in head-to-head combat. At this point in time, it’s called the ‘Combat Readiness Program’, a name that may be subject to change before the game’s release on November 4. He confirmed the detail via Twitter.
In addition to bots, Condrey revealed that they are bringing what they’re calling a ‘traditional playlist’ to the multiplayer portion of Advanced Warfare. The playlist will allow players to engage in Team Death Match, Domination, Capture the Flag, and other modes without the exo-suit capabilities like boost jumps, dashes, and dodges. It’s basically your classic Call of Duty multiplayer mode that’ll serve as a separate playlist.

And finally, Sledgehammer says it’s unable to commit to 1080p for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. The studio has been coy about whether they would be able to maintain 60 frames per second at a 1080p resolution.
"So we're 60 frames a second all the way," Sledgehammer told the OXM. "We are not talking about the – we're still waiting for announcements to come out in terms of where we're at with the resolutions, but I can tell you that the three year development title that we've had, working with everyone involved to make sure that we're getting it right… we're still optimising the game, but even with where we're at right now, we're really happy."
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare will be out for the PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One on November 4, 2014.
