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

    • Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a bunch of Dolby Atmos soundbar deals with several ones from Sony, as well as from JBL, Samsung, Polk Audio, and more. You can check them out in this dedicated piece. Those are not audiophile category speakers though as they are built with home theater use in mind. If you are searching for the former then Edifier has its S3000MKII at its lowest price at the moment (purchase link under the specs table down below). This is a two-way bookshelf monitor speaker designed to produce accurate sound. While it may not produce the best high-fidelity audio possible out there, it should still be significantly better than what you will get on soundbars of this price range. As such it will do justice to high-res audio played back through it. The only thing that may feel lacking is sub-bass as Edifier claims the unit can go down to 38 Hz, which should be enough for studio monitor purposes, but not for deep room-shaking rumbling bass. Where this does excel though is in its treble reproduction. With its super-tweeter, it claims to go as high as 40 kHz in the frequency spectrum, which should offer a sense of "air"yness. This is an active speaker which means it packs its own amplfication. It has a top-notch Class D amp that may be able to rival many Class AB designs too in terms of sound reproduction quality. The technical specs of the Edifier S3000MKII are given in the table below: Specification Value RMS Output Power 256W RMS (Treble: 8W × 2, Mid-Low: 120W × 2) Tweeter Driver 107mm × 107mm Planar Magnetic Tweeter Mid-Low Driver 6.5-inch (179mm) Long-Throw Aluminum Diaphragm Driver Frequency Response 38Hz – 40kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio ≥ 85dB (A) Bluetooth Version Bluetooth 5.0 Bluetooth Codec Qualcomm® aptX™ HD Wireless Speaker Link Proprietary 5.8GHz wireless connection between speakers Supported Hi-Res Audio Hi-Res Audio Certified, up to 24-bit/192kHz Digital Processing XMOS XU216 Digital Signal Processor Audio Inputs Balanced XLR, Optical, Coaxial, USB Type-B, Line In, Bluetooth Input Sensitivity (USB) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Optical) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Coaxial) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Bluetooth) 450 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Balanced XLR) 1000 ± 50mV Input Sensitivity (Line In) 600 ± 50mV ADC Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DSP Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DIX Capability Up to 24-bit/216kHz DAC Capability Up to 32-bit/384kHz XMOS Processing Power Up to 2,000 MIPS Edifier S3000MKII Audiophile Active (Powered) Wireless Speakers: $799.99 (Sold by Edifier US, Shipped by Amazon US) If you do not have the kind of budget to spend on the S3000MKII, you can also check out the Edifier R1280Ts which is right now on sale at just $114 (its lowest price in a very long time).
