Call of Duty 5, World At Bore
Developer: Treyarch Publisher: Activision (Minus Blizzard) Release Date: November 11 / November 14 CoD5 will be using modified CoD4 engine. Meaning now you can shoot through walls with your M1 Grand! Okay guys, PC beta started today and Xbox will start either today or tomorrow. I don't know about PS3. Spoiler:

AW YEAH SON TREYARCH BACK IN THE MOTHERFUCKING SADD-wait.
:biggestsadface: |
I'd be excited if Treyarch wasn't making it. Now I just have to sit back and see if it's any good once it comes out.
|
I know I'm the biggest loser ever for having this opinion, but I actually liked CoD3 way more than I liked CoD4 (as far as single player goes, anyway). Thus, I don't mind that Treyarch is developing it, and I prefer the move back to WWII.
|
so what you are saying is that you have in fact, not grown tired of ww2 shooters despite the fact that there are about fifty of them out there now
|
Hey Kimchi, you're really pushing it with these OPs. Do the world a favour and improve them some before making more of them, eh?
That said, CoD3 was pretty fucking abysmal, so anyone being excited for this somewhat frightens me. The trailer looks like horseshit to boot, what a fucking surprise that is. |

One of my most anticipated games at the moment is Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway, which just goes to show that I'm a sucker for these things. I'm a history major, so sue me if I at least don't have a reason to find this stuff interesting. |
You'd think a history major would be even MORE tired of the same thing repeated ad infinitum with various levels of factual inconsistency than someone who doesn't study it, no?
BiA at least has an interesting game mechanic going for it. I definitely can't say the most interesting thing about it is the setting. |
These are the bastards who don't even make PC ports, right? Ugh. I didn't miss out on CoD3. Although, I must say that this pisses me off. FINALLY, a Pacific War game and it'll probably be shit.
Pacific Theater strikes me as way more interesting than the European Theater, but it largely gets underplayed on attention. Oh well... :( |

Yep. Some missions will be European Theater, playing as Russia.
|
Ugh. Back to the WW2 theater. Still, wanna see how this will end up.
|
I prefer the WW2 to the modern stuff, I think it more balanced and fun to have more slightly 'crappy' weapons. that way the rifles and snipers have an even chance too.

Also, OP, pre-rendered hardly counts as a worthy screenshot. Most of that "doesn't count." Glad to see that once again they're screwing their origins by neglecting the PC most likely. |
Didn't spot Krauts. Guess I need to re-watch it, but... Meh.
Manny Biggs -- Yeah, I know Medal of Honor had a few Pacific games, but that series has been an embarrassment for years. I won't even acknowledge those "games" =x |

Seriously though, it's not like I play every single WWII game that comes out, or else I probably would be tired of them. The only ones I've really played are MoH (back in the early days, before it started to suck), BiA, and CoD. |

I find it odd to "port" it to the platform that it was originally designed for, but Treyarch didn't make Call of Duty 3 for the PC.
|
Call of Duty 3 was a decent enough game, but it's not a patch on 2 and 4 really, so Treyarch being back at the helm is a little concerning. That they've had 2 years to work on this gives me a little more hope, but then the fact that it's set in WWII (AGAIN) dashes most of that on the spot.
This could turn out to be a good game, but I'm not even the slightest bit excited about this title, which is crazy given it's the follow up to a fantastic game that I've ploughed copious hours into. |
I'd love a FPS based on the Korean War or Vietnam. Vietcong was pretty fuckin' nice for its time, and the Korean War in itself largely gets ignored, but there are some pretty impressive battles/encounters that took place during its duration.

Korean war FPS? Nothing. But there are strategy games that relate. |
They do have a Korean FPS, its called the first half of Crysis.
|
Great, just what we need, more WWII. I think I'll possibly rent it and choose to buy Battlefield: Bad Company. I don't know, I just prefer war games set in the future rather than the 50 billion titles that reflect on the past.
