Call of Duty 5 .... Revisited

[FUS1ON]

I've been wanting this Co-Op feature for a long time and Delta Force, CoD, etc ... never had it. This is going to be way cool, you can hook up with 3 of your buds via the PC and kick mo ass together. You gain experience points that moves you up in rank.

Screenshots and descriptions about the Co-Op features. http://kotaku.com/5018710/call-of-duty-5-screens-details-4+player-co+op

Call of Duty: World at War is in development for the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, Nintendo® Wii™ and Games for Windows® PC. The title is scheduled for release this spring and has not yet been rated by the OFLC.

Thanks

In my opinion I think CoD 5 will bomb, no red dot sights..It's going back into the WWII era of guns and stuff. Everyone is too into the red dot to switch back to iron sights.

Plus, Infinity Ward isn't even making this one ! Their making CoD 6

Due to release Nov 11th but you can signup to beta test


October 20, 2008 - Publisher Activision and developer Treyarch have revealed open beta plans for the PC version of Call of Duty: World at War (thanks Voodoo). You can participate in the beta to the highly-anticipated, first-person shooter by registering for an account at the game's official web site. http://www.callofduty.com/board/login?referer=%2Fboard%2Fviewtopic.php%3Ff%3D29%26 t%3D31258

All registered users will receive a beta key that will link up to their in-game created profile. Having profiles linked to CD keys will grant players, for the first time in a PC version of Call of Duty, access to friends lists and invite abilities. Developer Treyarch implemented these features into the PC version because it did not want to water down the game's squad mechanics for any of its fans.

Even though players are tied to unique usernames, they can add prefixes to identify themselves with clans. In addition, players will get the chance to host their own servers as game server providers will sell BETA servers.

It is important to note that, like its Xbox 360 counterpart, Treyarch will delete profiles after the beta ends. Players who would rather wait for the full version will have to hold off until November 11.

Got the game today for ps3. It's only fun campaign playing 2 player with your friend but online is only fun for the first 5 hours. The guns really suck and the game gets boring after a while.

[FUS1ON]

How can the guns suck? From what I remember in previous CoDs you had to almost empty a clip (i'm exaggerating a bit) in someone to kill them and from what i've read in every CoD5 review it's now One shot, one kill which sounds great and the way it ought to be.

Has anyone else tried this yet?

I'm more interestered in the co-op play for pc.

[EXEcution]

I watched my friend play it on his PS3. Personally I think it's the best CoD game yet. I didn't really like Modern Warfare because it deviated from the original WWII shooter genre.

World at War focuses on the more obscure battles in WW2 and has a very cool cinematic feel to it when playing SP. There are swarms of enemies that pop out everywhere. Near the beginning of the game my friend encountered a bunch of Japanese soilders in a swamp which would run directly at him, bayonets pointed straight ahead, yelling "Bonzai!!"

There's a good emphasis on close quarters combat as well as shooting. The guns are really well done, especially the flamethrower. If you liked CoD 1, 2, 3 and possibly 4 then you will love this.

My 2 cents.

[Zed]

I got more into the game on multiplayer its pretty fun.. rank 2384 on ps3 lol ive been playing alot.. the guns sucked at the begging but its ok now.

[He Is Legend]

cod 4 > cod 5

But its still a tight game, I gots it

[FUS1ON]

Why do you think it's greater?

They explain it pretty well.

[OUTLAWS CHICO]

Hmmmmmmmmmm does it run well on you guys pc ?

[FUS1ON]

I've read some really good responses at different places of people liking the game but those are pretty discouraging. I'd hate to get it, it not work and not be able to return it.

[He Is Legend]

It's not that its a bad game, it's that treyarch is garbage

[FUS1ON]

OK it's been several months and I noticed they released a v1.2 patch (400+ megs) on 2/6/09. Has anyone tried it recently? Have the things that were wrong been fixed? Is it better now?

I guess that's a No?

[JIMINATOR]

Everybody is waiting for your detailed analysis... :D

[FUS1ON]

LOL :D

I guess i'm going to have to break down and go get it

[OUTLAWS Tip]

It rocks on my Xbox. I have been playing it about 2 months now. I have over 7 days playing time and that is after I went through the four different difficulty settings on solo first.

:thumbs: :thumbs:

[PJ'l_Master]

sho, the patch seems to have fixed some problems for some people, but created others

[FUS1ON]

@#$%& :D

Thanks for the 411

[PJ'l_Master]

i havent really played the single player though, so i cant say if thats any good or not, but im sure it is since its CoD. The nazi zombies part is fun w/ friends though :)

in the end, CoD4 is still better

[FUS1ON]

I've not played a bunch but I'm digging CoD5 so far, it seems like it plays like the previous versions i've had and no complaints yet. I'm ready to do some Co-op.

Chico and I upgraded our video cards and Newegg threw in CoD5 with them. Chico make sure you install the CoDWaW-1.2-PatchSetup.exe (510 megs) patch first, then the CoDWaW-1.2-1.3-PatchSetup.exe (63 megs).

[FUS1ON]
