yeah liked cod waw, but really preferred modern warfare. the split screen is pretty but has no functionality especially with a small TV my mates TV was so small we actually stopped playing!
the weapons were bad when i started everybody has the browning (awesome machine gun that has the power to knock a house down) and im stuck with a Springfield (gun that had trouble shooting through a piece of paper) and they have so much experience playing it so unfair! m.w at least gave a bit of a chance! we will have to wait a see what comes next eh?

I don't either. Sure they did WWII but it worked really welland mor over the parts of WWII they used have not been done that often so it was actually closer to a change of pace from what we're used to seeing. Plus I've heard from sources that it will take place in Vietnam which hasn't really been done as much (actually modern settings have been done way more than Vietnam) and I' think Treyarch could pull it off. I'm personally looking forward to it.Heppenfeph said:
Call of duty 1 and 2 had team specific guns, thus why I brought them up, as those are the benchmark that all newer call of duty games, especially ww2 ones, are to be judged. Why in gods name can I not play as german and use a kar98k, that was their standard gun in the war, it makes sense that it be available. Why would germans be spawning with thompsons? It's stupid and makes the gunplay far less dynamic and strategic when every team has the same strengths and weaknesses due to the same available weapons.Mr.Pandah said:
I hope to god they have fixed the tank class since I last played, but when I played it last you had to be rank#2 to get the anti-tank class (think it was version 1.0), which meant for the first 5 maps me and my mates played, the tanks were a win button.
The ingame bonuses are retarded, the dogs are a win button. As I said I didn't particularly like call of duty 4 (which is now the comparison as the better two games in the series did not feature perks/ingame bonuses at all) but at least they weren't necissarily game winning, even the helicopter could be easily counterd by low rank players. The dogs in WaW however, are difficult to counter even for moderate-high rank players, hardly a fun or fair advantage.
I realise having re-read that that the ingame bonuses are not perks, however my point stands that they are retarded and should be removed completely, or at least heavily limited. The perks should be altered so that they offer a disadvantage as well as an advantage, so that low rank players can compete with high rank. However this was equally stupid in cod4, they really should have payed attention to what infinity ward did wrong rather than blindly emulating it.
The maps, you didn't bother to counter my point about them but I'll bring them up again, they are terrible. They are built around huge player numbers which makes for a spam filled yawn fest. What happened to the small, cover heavy multiplayer maps seen in the first 2 games, why is their no carentan, railyard or toujane? Have we completely forsaken skill in favor of mindless grenade spamming? If so, why?
Not sure about that one, never noticed it myself. But that is a good point, although rank 2 is like 1 or 2 kills.Dys said:
You can melee/knife dogs with relative ease. Its arguable but helicopters were a much bigger problem when CoD4 was released took the average person who plays a while to realise to shoot it down.Dys said:
Well theres no real good way to reward players by playing a lot. I thoguht it was quite good. Entry level weapons are good enough, yeah sure everyone would love to be rocking Brownings but to say they have no skill because they killed you with a weapon you havent unlocked is pretty sad. I hope they expand the system for MW2 and CoD7, it works really well and you can customise your loadout depending on what style you want to play.. you can not do this in CoD1/2, you only had a choice of rifle or mg basically.Dys said:
Ok I completely agree with you here. There are a lot of average maps in WaW and even MW. They are rather crushed especially if your in a larger server with 20-32 players.Dys said:
Neither the dogs nor the tanks are a so called "win button". I went 31/7, called in the dogs, and my team still lost the match. As for the tanks, sure if you let the other team get in all of them, yeah, you are probably gonna lose, but I have destroyed plenty with one satchel charge a piece. That's all it takes.
As far as the weapons, the other side spawning with guns that aren't there is kinda strange, but in many instances in real life soldiers often pick up guns of their enemies when they run out of ammo. It's not that unheard of.
Edit: I think we can all agree that WWII weapons are more inaccurate than modern weapons. That's why we don't use them anymore. To fault a game for factually representing a weapon compared to MW is kinda lame.

What was wrong with COD:WAW was;Heppenfeph said:
1. World War 2: Cause, ya know, that's original.
2. Crappy, inaccurate weapons that just make you long for the advanced guns in COD4
3. An extremely broken spawn system that seemed to enjoy spawning you with your back to the entire enemy team.
4. Tanks. Fuck you.
5. Some maps were just waaaaaaaay to fucking big and you could run around for half the game with out encountering anyone.
6. Broken sniping, no reason the gun needs to bounce around that much after a shot. You were lucky if you even hit anything but god forbid your target had last stand, you had no shot of hitting him again before they snipe you with their friggen pistol.
7. Lame maps, compared to COD4 anyway.
8. Nazi Zombie was cool but I'd much prefer an Infection game. Rumor has it we'll see one in MW2.
9. Bouncing Betty's triggering and killing you from around a corner.
The game tried so hard to be as good as COD4 and just failed miserably at it.
Also, wouldn't it technically be COD6 that treyarch is working on? Considering Infinity Ward dropped the COD title for Modern Warfare 2? What a happy day it was one I found that out. I was a bit sad to hear that there will be vehicles, but as long as they're not as annoying as the tanks then everything should be fine.
