Nah, that's the first and last level. Except it takes a turn for the No Russian.Beardly said:
OT: Yeah, I'm digging this. I liked the Pacific portions of the campaign in WaW -- there were some bad parts like a previous poster mentioned (How do they see me in that high grass!?) but overall it pretty much sucked me into the atmosphere. Treyarch did a pretty good job with WaW, and I'm not just talking about Nacht der Untoten here, so I'm fairly optimistic if we get COD: Nam.
Of course, there's a lot of room for disappointment too. Jungle warfare is intense stuff, innately frustrating, and apparently very hard to design, so I could easily see those levels taking a nosedive in overall quality. Not because they're difficult, but because the game's cheap with them. Also, if the message goes all gung-ho anti-American, like we're a bunch of murdering thugs and the VC were the awesome and flawless indigenes fighting the big bad empire, or if it goes all gung-ho pro-American and we're killing baby-eating communists for Jesus (Amurka!), I'll be annoyed. But not surprised.
Shit...7 games. Some I'm onto my second hand...But you see my point. Few MAJOR game releases utilized this setting.Journeythroughhell said:
The campaign will probably be filled with forgettable characters and shitty environments. The multiplayer will most likely be focused on 2 good weapons with the rest being hard as fuck to play with and let's not forget the map packs that Treyarch's going to be releasing that will annihilate any attempt at playing the game without shoving 30 bucks into Treyarchs vault full of mountains of cash.
I really hope that they include more than just American and Vietcong points of view. I'd like to see at least one level including Australians (our SASR racked up a 500:1 kill:death ratio, come the fuck on) and New Zealanders, because we're very rarely represented in any video game, and Vietnam is a good setting to explore the varied perspectives (both military and civilian) of nations involved in the war.
I just pray to God it isn't another patriotic "USA is awesome, everyone else eat shit" game.

I played the WaW demo, and that was it sadly.
I loved every moment of it. I couldn't understand why people hated WaW; solid gameplay, nice graphics, excellent sound (and the voice acting was rather nice as well). Treyarch impressed me with that (demo), so I do have faith they'll make it decent. However, I guess it WOULD be nice if IW made the Vietnam game.

apparently people only play cod for the multiplayer...Kirbymike said:
that and waw had way too many turrets next to constantly respawning enemies and too many grenade spammers resulting in so many cheap deaths at hardened and veteran difficulty
at least in modern warfare, when you died, it was technically avoidable
but yeah, waw is underrated by cod fans
if IW had made it but it was exactly the same, it'd be hailed as the greatest ww2 game to ever grace the planet
Name the last game that was. Or book or movie. Or person, even.I_am_a_Spoon said:
I for one look forward to this game the same way I had to Six Days. Obviously it won't be in the same style as Six Days but it could still be pretty intense and fun at the same time. Hopefully they'll enfuse a little pop culture from the day as well, what with all the top-quality "music" that was big in the 60's and seventies...
Also I hope they include degradeable weapons and an ammo clip that gets rid of the unused bullets when you reload for all those jittery reloaders out there, especially in multiplayer.
