Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare II

Post by Rod_S »

First official confirmation is in - time to get excited and start speculating:

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/infin ... -warfare-2

Not much news - the voice overs have been recorded - but hey, at least it's officially confirmed that Treyarch aren't invited to the party this time.

I can hardly breathe from excitement already. Oh man.

Careful, you're going to peak too early. Breathe slowly. I am looking forward to this one and I do hope its as good as COD4 was. But theres an element of - what can they possibly add?

I would like to see teams in a teamgame dropped from helicopters, with the location selectable by the MVP to choose from though.

I'm getting so excited that I might shit and vomit at the same time.

It just has to be CoD: Soap's Progress. Oh man, just writing that makes me tingle. :D

True. I had forgotten it had a single player - awesome though it was. COD4 revolutionized the online shooter. I want COD6 to do the same again. How many chickens do we need to sacrifice?

pee the pants time :D


as long as they don't fuck about with the multi player too much and give me a stack load of the same quality multi player maps.

(which are all genius even the ridiculous kill house and small container map)

its all in the weapon balance and different feel and punch when you pull the trigger so as long as they don't upset it.

not sure how i feel about any potential for adding tanks and stuff at the mo; smells of upsetting the balance. Cod 3 and 5 were fun but I'm not sure 6 needs it.

Helicopter insertion on maps for team games sounds good especially when you think about doing it on maps like crash, District and crossfire. Ab sailing into the narrow streets to take out buildings could be amazing. All black Hawk down on yowa ass.

Part of me is hoping there's no single player, get totally focussed on the multi and plough all available resources into it. There's hundreds of players on Live without a single achievement from Campaign who've ranked right up in Prestige, there's definitely a wide userbase who never touch the SP.

Saying that - Soap's Progress: The Falklands Campaign would indeed be off the fucking scale. Oh Christ.

Yeah, majority (if not all) focus on multiplayer please. No QTE's, smarter AI for increased difficulty rather than the COD staple of infinite respawn and grenade rain. But really, sack off SP altogether.

Let's have bayonets, they are the one thing that WaW has ove MW, and the sawn off double barrel is fun. A bit more use of the third (or is it second?) dimension might be good, Creek is my fave level, even though everyone else seems to hate it. Regional game selection too, no offence to the Americans, but they seem to have the highest number of game ruining shouty muppets. Pistol and Knife only game modes.

etc etc.

Although I'd be happy with just new maps and weapons.
Because fucking marketing cunts would never call a spade anything other than a Deluxe Easi-Shift Earth Movement Solution.

Burn the witch! :D

Seriously, I would like the achievements to be dual purpose. IE I can get all the achievements in SP OR MP.

Preferred it in SP mode but did enjoy my few sessions of MP
So another plea for longer SP

Instead of Mile High at the end of the game there should be Storm The Iranian Embassy. Can you imagine how fucking good that would be?
