Ok, I was really skeptical about the new COD game going back to WW2, but there's bee a couple of titbits that's making me think this could be a pretty good game. Now admittedly, a lot of this stuff might already be common knowledge, but I didn't know any of this stuff untilI was watching Gamet Trailers TV and they had the following info:
1. 4 player co-up campaign mode. Awesome. If there's anything that would make the COD games better it would be co-op.
2. Gary Oldman and Kiefer Sutherland doing the voices. Good choices, wonder if you'll get to hear Keifer shouting about not having enough time every 30 seconds.
3. Vehicles in the multiplayer: again, really sweet. I haven't played the beta, so I don't know how well this is implemented but it seems to be a step in the right direction.
4. Survival horror, co-op mode: now this looks really interesting. Seemingly, you can play a survival mode against Nazi Zombies (instant bonus points there), with up to 4 players. From what I watched you're inside a house and you have to constantly upgrade barricades and fight waves and waves of zombies. This looks like great fun, not a patch on Left 4 Dead maybe, but considering this is an unlockable after completing the main game, it makes a nice addition.
I got shot in the head by some guy who had steady aim on a sniper that didn't even aim at me. On the repay, I clearly saw that his crosshairs didn't touch me, nor come close.
Just for that, I'm not even thinking of picking up the game. I love multiplayer games and usually buy ones my friends get just so I can play with them, but not this time. Fuck that.
Meh, after the Beta they usually change almost zero gameplay. I think it's just another way to test the networking before launch (which is still much appreciated)
