I just rented it, was kind of put of by the WWII setting at first, but once you play co-op missions, it is amazingly fun. I like it better than COD4.

I just have 1 question, how do you save your co-op progress? I see no options anywhere. We have to restart everytime we turn the Xbox on.

Ok I really don't want to read thru all 21 pages but I really need help here, I'm on Heart of the Reich Veteran, I am at the middle of the level where you have to destroy 4 88's well after like 20 deaths I managed to blow up 2 88's but now I am having a problem (yes 20 deaths wasn't the problem) I can hardly manage to get to the central building but after that every time I either get blown up by 7 to 8 grenades of 3 to 4 soldiers.

Anyone has any ideas. I really didn't know that there were so many soldiers and given trillions of grenades to each of them in Germany in WWII

I always find its easier to pull back to where your own guys are and not get too far ahead, that way there are multiple targets for the AI to deal with. if its jsut you they all concentrate on you.

No point, the AI in this game is next to useless plus the enemy will focus on you no matter what. The AI allows the enemy to just run through them and shoot at you. Playing on Veteran is all about waiting, running, taking chances, moving forward to stop the infinite respawns and then get a new checkpoint.

Started on veteran last night and I must say, either I am getting used to Call of Duty games on veteran or this time around it is really easy. Already halfway through the damn thing!

This game's AI is still in 19th century. They can shoot thru wall tanks and if bullets can't reach you then how about an average of 10 grenades. The AI in this game has unlimited amount of grenades in there pockets they throw it like popcorn.

I just finished the game on veteran couple of min ago. The only way I survived cause of the scripted events, all you have to do is kill the stationary soilders and kill the running soilder if they get in your way. then go to the next safest cover you can get (sometimes I thought that they had scripted events only when you get into one of the covers).

anyone got any strategies for zombie mode?

Yea man. Me and a friend have thought of so many for that map. Basically best thing to do is stay in the first room until wave 6. At this point you will have built up enough points to open the door to the right and randomise your weapons. Best weapon to get is the Ray Gun which pffftt comes up hardly ever. Do not open the first set of stairs its the worst way. Once you have been in the 2nd room for a few waves say upto wave 10 then move to up stairs. You kinda need a ray gun to get far though. The highest we got was wave 15 at which point there are tons of zombies. I had a ray gun he had flamethrower and thompson. It gets hectic so ideally you both need raygun!!. After you have gone upstairs though straight in front of you there is a small room which has 2 entrances. One is a window the other an open door. Get one person on the window and other door. Ideally the guy on the door has ray gun or a MG. Post here if you can beat wave 15!!!! Or if you got any other better tactics. I absolutely love that special level!

Please don't tell me Treyarch haven't ****ing fixed their AI, i HATED COD3, simply because the AI could see you through cover and ALWAYS targeted you, it was one of the most frustrating things ever!

If the AI is as bad as COD3, i for one will be staying well clear.

Wait, what? COD5 has a ray gun? Wtf..

Was listening to MN's podcast last night and they had some guy from COD5 on talking about how they did all this historical research etc etc, and then they put a frickin' ray gun in the game? :no:

Oh the times I've watched a WW2 movie and the guy whips out his awesome MHz ray gunz! :rolleyes:

Pushed back even more, past the 21st, Valve official sucks when they are releasing there own games.

Hmm, ok Valve have released L4D on time, which is their own game.

WaW is not their own game, so maybe its Activision causing the issue here not Valve.

I just got it for the pc, but it crashes as it tries to boot (I'm on Vista).

I'll download the new patch tonight, but for what I've read of the release notes, the patch just addresses multiplayer issues.

EDIT: I fixed it by reducing my sound to 44,000

    • Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams, here is a first look

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams, here is a first look by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is heavily used in work and school environments, and perhaps one of its core but extremely useful features is the ability to record meetings. In past years, Microsoft has further improved upon this functionality by integrating AI, but you do need a Microsoft 365 Copilot license to leverage most, if not all, all of those capabilities. Now, the Redmond tech firm is making another significant enhancement in the area of Teams meeting recordings. Up until now, if you wanted to access Teams recordings, you had to arduously locate the meeting invite and navigate to the dedicated tab, or go to the cloud storage location such as a SharePoint site. This was a rather overwhelming activity, especially if you don't remember the name of the meeting or the meeting occurred quite a while ago. Microsoft is now attempting to solve this problem through a dedicated Recap app that consolidates all your recordings. This centralized experience will allow users to find all recordings from the past 30 days and also offer access to other related services such as transcripts and AI-powered summaries. Customers will have the option to search for recordings, filter them, and review multiple meetings by generating AI-powered podcast-style recaps. The Recap app will list all available recordings in both thumbnail and list views. The former is shown below: And here is how Teams users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can select multiple recordings to generate a podcast-style audio recap: Microsoft has emphasized that the Recap app is pre-installed in Teams but it will not be pinned by default. Users will able to navigate to the Teams app store from the left rail, and pin it from the apps section. It will be enabled by default for all users once it becomes available. It's worth noting that while Teams recordings and transcripts can be accessed by all users governed by existing permissions, AI-powered features like intelligent summaries, audio recaps, and video recaps will require a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. The Recap app will be generally available to Teams users on Windows, Mac, and the web by the end of next month, with mobile support coming soon.
