Call Of Duty 5

[wraith_skyline]

Just say the previews for COD5, so now i am going to pack my sleeping bag and camp out front of EB till it arrives, whos with me.

[krzysiu]

12th of November is the date

[BigDirtyJase]

Yeah preview looks very nice..let's hope that the single player mode is nice and long. COD4 was way too short.

Multiplayer is going to be fun

[wraith_skyline]

Its got a co op mode in it now too, so you can play missions and still not leave your mates out

[gfunkk]

yeah cod games have always had short single-player, but i guess its good because it doesnt drag on with the same shit

is there any good video footage out yet? last time i checked there was just a few screenshots

[BigDirtyJase]

go to games.on.net (internode games network) they have trailers and there is co-op footage from the consoles...looks good

[SKYLVIA]

Its got a co op mode in it now too, so you can play missions and still not leave your mates out

not just co-op, but 4 player co-op

[wraith_skyline]

Properly co ordinated attacks here we come, you, and you take an assault rifle, your on the M60 and ill cover you ass with the sniper rifle

Vehicle perks, this is getting better an better

[SKYLVIA]

im a bit sceptical about the vehicles... but it should be interesting, aslong as the maps arent as shit boring as BF:BC

[Flynnn]

FFS its based on WW2... arrrrghh i hate ww2 games

[SKYLVIA]

its probably the only WWII game im genuinly interested in.

[Pattygtst]

I loved COD4 when i found out they were going back to ww2 i lost immediate interest, and i still dont care. I will wait for a review and see how it pans out from there.

With the quality of games coming out this month COD5 is meh in comparison IMO

[n/aTurbo]

I agree with pat, COD5 looks like it will be a flop. Especially taking into account that "Infinity Ward" the developers of the unbelievable COD4 have no ties with the fifth game.

Some good news on the other hand. "Infinity ward" announced that they will return to make a COD6, to be released in mid 2009. This has been substantiated but the basis of the game has not unfortunately. Most think that the new COD6 will be sci-fi based. This, although sounding intriguing, will again be another flop in my opinion but who knows, its only a rumor.

[SKYLVIA]

Ummmm Treyarch (SP?) are using infinity wards cod4 engine for WaW, so its not going to be dramatically different...

I dont think it looks like a flop at all, GameTrailers have a fair few gameplay vids of 4 player co-op, competitive co-op etc and it looks amazing, yeah its not infinity ward behind it, but Treyarch are using the legs that inifnity ward made, for WaW to walk...

P.S. Activision announced a while ago that they plan to release a new COD every year... wonder how long they can keep that up?

[n/aTurbo]

i actually hope they don't release one every year. The series will be too focused on simple numbers and the amount of games they are able to produce. I rather they spend time on a game and try to perfect it for their loving audience like me

[rhys5169]

cannot wait for cod5, only recently saw the trailers and heard some of the perks etc for online, looks great. p10 level 55 and just about all my gold guns so cod4 is getting boring-ish

[Mr Eps]

i hate the thought of returning the genre back WWII BUT

this does look super violent and super awesome

which are two factors i like

what i wanna know is

why didn't they make one about 'nam???

that would be super awesome AND cool

but then again

there wasn't much strategy behind the vietnam conflict so it's fairly hard to make a game about a historic event based on fuckall

[Gus-]

can't wait

anyone no minimum and maximum requirements yet????
