Fishy Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 *Mild Spoliees* Anyone else pick this up yet? This game was just as fun as portal imo, but longer and far more epic. From playing COD2 very recently, I loved the modern incarnation of Price and all his SAS buds. With the previous games I always felt very aware that my comrades were all blithering AIs, but these characters made me feel like I was actually part of a team of professionals, and as a result the ending (whilst probably the most awesome and pressuring 5 seconds you'll ever play) was actually saddening. Usually the brits in these games are all "what what, lets get the darn jerries then have some tea, the mangey buggers" but Gaz was a propa hard man. Also rofl that the american one dies for once. I'm still waiting for a zero punctuation review for this particular element to be raised. Also, my internets too crap but the multiplayer system looks amazing. Can't wait to have a sniper duel with someone. What do you guys think of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The single player campaign is more realistic in the tactics than any other game I've player. Marines stack at entrances, breaches are realistic, and you'll spend a lot of time in the prone. But multiplayer can be brutal, I just started multiplayer up, and it's pretty much two maybe three shots will kill you, and most more experienced players start out with better optics that meke them more accurate.

Shining Mirage Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Love the game overall, but having a bit of trouble with the last mission on Veteran mode. 20-30 dudes in 1 minute? Damn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
operawonderdude Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Friggin' awesome game. Been playing it on the 360 with my room mate when I can. Would play it more, but I think I'd be holdin' my roommate back from winning more often (lol I suck @ zee FPS) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Amazing game, and incredible multiplayer to boot. My XBox Live was collecting some dust for a while until this game came up. Single player is also hard as balls on Veteran too, I love it! (I beat it yesterday on Christmas) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I-n-j-i-n Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I'm constantly switching from Xbox Live Arcade games, Halo 3 and CoD4 with online play. The roleplaying style level ups are like crack. And it's fun to kill people after you fall dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfoot Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Sniper level is the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
operawonderdude Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Sniper level is the best. Yeah, I think that's my personal favorite too. Anyone get General ranking online yet and start over? My roommate has done so 4 times now. T_T Creepy yes, but you get some really kewl looking insignias. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I love the online in CoD 4 - I got 1st prestige in about a weeks worth of play and am moderately close to a second one (although first I have to get back to school).

Fiendofthenorth Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I've really only played COD 4 online, never even touched the single player since I always play on my brothers account online. Reached max rank after not too long, and I like the way they made the multiplayer create-a-class mode. It is a big step away from COD 2, incorporating things like stun grenades and flashbangs, which makes storming buildings more interesting for both defending and attacking.

Sir_NutS Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 COD4 is my favorite FPS of the year, even above UT3. I was fairly impressed with COD2 back then but this one surpassed all my expectations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hy Bound Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 This game is like crack to me, im level 53 at the moment and already want to start over with the prestige thing. The only problem I have is that for some reason i feel that some of the achievements should be tied to multiplayer, instead of only the crazy-awesome rank experience. I see why they didnt, but once you get passed 52, you don't get any more weapons or anything other than the extras on the guns. Otherwise, the single player is amazing, if short, and the whole experience is like super-crack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hy Bound Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 heh, i tried for about an hour, but dear god; that one minute time limit is impossible. I'd like to ask to see a youtube of someone actually doing it. I can't decide if i should just run for it and kill as many people as i can as i run, or what. red-dick-you-lous.

Fishy Posted December 28, 2007 Author Share Posted December 28, 2007 And if that wasn't sick enough, pistols and nades only: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHOu74htG3k&feature=related I suppose the reload time on the pistol helps, but hot damn. Not arcade mode though, I'm curious to see what ludicrous point score is possible. I think the basic idea is just to keep moving. From my experiance in the game, the faster you move forward, the less guys appear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyne Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Looks like I've got to get the game. It looked great, nice to see others have played it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted December 28, 2007 Author Share Posted December 28, 2007 Feel free to post your arcade high scores, I'll put a leader board in the first post if we get some really good ones :3. EDIT: Speaking of which: Take that Gaz you bastard you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
