Looks like I have to buy a new PC.

The reason I liked COD4, and I don't like the the previous ones is that for years from the age where we can barely spell, we learn in school about the second world war. The areas, the real life outcome, all that leads to a game that's bland.

But, I think there are ways to remedy this. I would love to see a WW2 game that has to do with a russian farmer who loses his family to the advancing nazis, and has to take up a sniper rifle to slow them down for as long as he can. Or, a submarine crew that runs into mechnical problems and at night sneaks into new york, and you have the game revolve around them trying to sneak into a cargo ship heading into france (stealth based game). Even similar to that, a german battleship gets cornered off of a south american coast, and they abandon ship and the game has to do with travelling through the forest to make it to an axis-friendly country.

The trailer is clearly pacific theatre ww2. I can't really remember a good FPS that was able to pull off the greatness of running through the rain forest with bullets flying. It might be in WW2 but it's still trying something that isn't too overdone, and I will definately buy it when it comes out. Seeing that sniper climb into the palm tree made me wet.

edit: after seeing those pictures, I guess the "world at war" is really litteral. It looks like they picked settings that aren't totally overused - that russian looks pwn sauze, and catalinas are 1337.

il buy it, play it, give it a chance but im not going to say im going to like it. but if cod4 taught us anything its that we should always give a game a chance

New perklist:

Looks promising.

O BOI SOMEONE RESED MY THREAD!!!
cool pics and what dom said is true, they are treading sorta new grounds from the looks of it.

I hope they would improve the graphics.

Im going to get it, just cuz its called call of duty.

yeah it is,

best cod till now = CoD2 but i quit CoD went back to css lolz.

pff

This looks Farking crap, I thought it was going to be a bit pro but it just sucks.
No jungle shooter ever succeeded. Cause it's the Farking jungle thats why. Jungles are noob.

crysis, far cry

correct me if im wrong but both have jungles

il give it a shot if the demo sucks badly i wont buy it if the demo is ok il buy it, simple as

+1

Already not gonna buy it

Every company/group has good and bad games, some of you guys are just morons. How about actually waiting til the game is out and tried before going "lols its this company, THEY SUCKS AND SO WILL THEIR GAME!" No wonder I'm starting to hate forums these days, every time I check, more and more morons.

im 50/50 with what you said

i said il buy the game and give it a chance but tbh iv got low expectations its prolly gona suck

Milking it for all its worth....

d00d.

I absolutely WILL love this game. I hate modern/futuristic set shooters. I like the old, skills required weapons.

And btw, this isn't just another WWII game. It is set in Japan, which most of the WWII shooters aren't.

cod:uo was the most fun cod version ever (multiplayer)

cod5 is going to suck, just like cod 4,, cod formula is WW2 not modern warfare and not vietnam war,, im dutch and i have more feeling for the europe maps as for vietnam and middle east,,

cod is going way much to become a battlefield shooter,, and battlefield is like, waiting, waiting, hey i see someone, oh its a teammate,, waiting waiting, (in the mean while some peep with exploid shoots you with a tank way way before you cant even see him)

bf is suckie, cod will become suckie if they dont stick to small intense battlemaps prefer set in europe,, cod is succes cause of spawn, 5 sec, and your in a batlle, if you die, respawn in few secs, and your direct in a battle again,, its aimed at playing not in waiting for seeing someone and then some exploid peep shoots you way before you can aim at him,,

er cod4 is the most fast and intense battle shooter version of cod so far you cnt say there is no action or long waits

Xbox360 and PC multiplayer betas are going to be released in October, I'm just hoping i don't have to replace my 8600 to play.

cover arts been released


unless you have all already seen it.

That cover could have been better :/

I like it actually.

Probably will pass on this one tho and wait to see what 6 is about and what not. Im not a big FPS person myself but my brother and his friends made me get CoD4 and i loved it. Perhaps i will like this, i just dont know

is this m4 spectrym in hes hands on the cover?

finally a WWII game where we kill someone other than nazis

It looks like a Thompson, I could be wrong though.

Zomg theres a flamethrower? BADASS.

looks like were going to vietnam
ill give it a shot

Go for the new BiA then

I will buy this CoD, as I bought every CoD and I'm sure I'll like it...I want to shoot, I don't care if it's in Europe, Asia or the future (Although I'm glad they didn't go back to the WWII in Europe hehe, too many games about that already).

The new BIA is a Farking major let down. Fun game, once you get into it the game is over. Only about 6-10 hours of playtime. Very lame, not worth it less you 'acquire' it and then delete.

To the people who seem to think that COD5 is a Vietnam game, it isn't. It is the pacific theatre og WWII. Meaning USA vs. Japan. I am pretty sure there is also Russia vs. Germany but I am not 100% sure of that.
