Forums - Sony Discussion - What Do You Think of COD:WaW?

bigjon on 01 December 2008

The map designs are very different from COD4 as I have mentioned, and to most people that is the most important part. And it is a good different too.

Also, I have not heard this much, but the graphic seem alot better on WaW. Ne else think this too?

I put in on the sony board because I have the PS3 version.

The imo shut up all the ney sayers who said it would bite hard.

I also think CoD: WaW is an amazing game and better than CoD 4. I never found WWII games boring, and this one is definitely the best one out there! Thompson + Fast Reload > Any modern gun out there! =P

Here's the thread I made about the game: http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=48659



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

I played the PC version and couldn't bare to finish it, I found it extremely boring, unoriginal, repetetive and so full of holes and annoying quirks that it bothers the hell out of me.
Sorry Treyarch, I was nervous after CoD 3 and with WaW you proved the feeling was well founded. I hope IW take over CoD 6, seriously.

oh ya thank goodness they nerfed grenades...

The CoD series usually have parallel stories. 2 or 3 different characters is pretty much the same to me.

That still doesn't stop it from feeling exactly the same as 4. (I am speaking presentation wise). Again I don't think its a bad thing. 

I don't know, I don't find them similar at all. The sniper mission is maybe a bit similar (but snipers usually have to assassinate one person anyway, so it's hard to make it different), but the airship one is totally different! =P

 

 

The actually gameplay is completely different, I especially like the airship stage, the little animation for switching guns, the cue for saving the overboard shipmen, the mission was probably my favourite for the entire game.

The point is Treyarch played it incredibly safe, the formula on paper is eerily similar to 4.

It's obvious to expect similarities with CoD 4, especially when the game uses the same engine (optimized this time around). CoD: WaW is filled with more action than any other FPS game I've ever seen though, and if I remember, 4 wasn't THAT action packed.

It is a high-quality game, and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience; however, I would not rate it higher than CoD 4, and it is not because of the WWII setting.



bigjon on 02 December 2008

been playing it a while now, I can say after playing it more that it really feel different when you getting into the multiplayer. The maps are better and more detailed. It seems that strategies for fighting are much different in COD:WaW. I find sneaking around and moving slow very effective. In Cod4 the way the maps are layed you pretty much need to keep moving the entire time.

Great game, so similiar yet so different from COD4.... it is kinda weird.

COD4 wasn't exclusive and it got big reviews... so why would it matter with CoDWaW?

I personally thought the modern setting was a breath of fresh air with COD4.
