Call of Duty: World at War

How so? Because they basically took every thing that COD4 did right and kept it?

CoD 5 uses CoD 4's engine/multiplayer etc. It's CoD 4 only reskinned basically.

Came close to buying it today, but I think Ill wait a while. Started playing CoD 4 online again so Ill be tied up for a while biscuits

Examples please

Haven't actually picked up COD5 yet, but I will quote my friend who's already got something like 40 hours on it and played COD4 obsessively until a week ago.

"They're the EXACT same game, except you can sic dogs on people instead of call in airstrikes, and prestige takes 65 levels now instead of 55. Oh, and zombie Nazis."

Every single person I know who's played both has said the same. Considering most of my friends are fans of FPSs, this is a lot.

Gameplay specific?

I always think if the gameplay is great, then setting wont matter that much. The only time I hear people say that is because of a bad game.

Because "Modern shooters" are basically FPS's set in space with humans or a special kind of human fighting of hordes of aliens right now, as i said with a few exceptions FPS's nowadays seem to either be about WWII or a space marine/human fighting of aliens.

Wouldnt those be "future" shooters?

Well no because modern shooters of today are all about space marines and aliens.

I'm using the term modern as it would apply in today's world, not as in the a game world.

And modern shooters with enemies that are terrorists.

Havnt played COD5, but even COD4 is almost exact copy of COD2 and COD. The difference is that they looked at Battlefield 2 MP stats and unlock system and made it better.

I got huge case of deja vu playing COD4 SP. It's identical to the first two, outside of new guns.

Thats because they have the same developers.

I know.

But people say how different COD4 is while in reality it isn't.
Heck, they still have the typical blow up an anti aircraft gun mission.

The setting and the physics engine are the two biggest differences.

It's always WWII. Enough already. CoD4 was a fans favorite because oh I don't know....Because it isn't in World War ******* II!

Yea i got to agree there, alot of FPS are about WWII, WWII this WWII that. Its getting so damn annoying already and with WWII games we always know the outcome.

I actually liked COD4's single player , hell it was a blast and at the moment i don't feel COD5's singleplayer is as great as 4's. Well it is even boring me sometimes.

But seriously, don't they get that we just don't like WWII games? Enough of the past and more of the current moden era please.

Well said dude.

Modern era 👆 👆

World War II 👇 👇

Infinity Ward shouldn't have let Activision make the game because bringing the fight back into its old roots is just pissing the fans off. It's kinda like how Team Silent let Double Helix make Silent Hill 5 and that game ended up a disaster.

I'm pretty sure CoD is owned by Activision and not Infinity Ward.

A friend of mine came by last week and asked me why I was playing CoD3. I was shocked when I told him it was CoD5.

There you go. Same game.

There all the same game.
