Wohoo! Finally got 1000/1000 gs in this, its the first game i've ever got the full gamescore from aswell :D

I'm not far behind you good sir.!

A little more info on the DLC...

Dear Alarmed Residents of Texas, Indiana and Illinois:

We hope that rumors of a new zombie level being included in the first Call of Duty: World at War DLC map pack wasn?t what sent you into a recent frenzy (http://www.kxan.com/dpp/news/Road_signs_warn_of_zombies). Nazi Zombies scare us too, which is why we?d like to give you a heads-up to stay tuned for official word regarding upcoming DLC. Yes, there will be a new wave of undead coming soon and ? while we appreciate everyone?s concern (and we don?t condone vandalism) ? we assure you that these zombies will only be found in the Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack. Stay tuned for more details!

Regards,

Your friends on the Call of Duty: World at War team.

DLC Announced...

New conflicts are on the horizon for Call of Duty: World at War! We're pleased to introduce the contents of our first Downloadable Content (DLC) Map Pack for World at War, which includes three new Multiplayer levels, as well as an additional level for the ever-popular bonus Co-Op mode, Nazi Zombies!

cod_dlc_nightfire_ss.jpg

Nightfire

In "Nightfire," players take to the streets of a war-ravaged Berlin with only the flames of the burning city to expose the enemy.

Station

"Station" offers a bombed out underground train station littered with hidden passageways and destroyed subway cars.

Knee Deep

"Knee Deep" takes place on the island of Peleliu in a once tranquil village turned chaotic Japanese command center.

Verr?ckt (Zombie Asylum)>

The fan favorite 4-player co-op Nazi Zombies Bonus Mode returns with "Verr?ckt," a terrifying Zombie asylum featuring more weapons, perks via the addition of Perks-a-Cola machines, electroshock defenses and the endless zombie horde.

The team has been very quiet regarding details of our DLC until now, and we're so excited to let this content loose. DLC Map Pack #1 is due out in March of '09 for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC platforms. More details are soon to come, so be sure to check out CallOfDuty.com for all the latest news and updates regarding CoD:WaW!

No mention of price or if it will be free. I'm thinking 800 points though. Wondering if it will be released before or after the title update, and the free Makin Day map.

They really need to start releasing DLC quicker, especially for FPS games. You get tired of the same maps loooong before they ever release it. I suppose maybe that's their intention and it boosts the sales when they finally release it? In the case of WaW though, that'll be near 5 months it has taken them to release the first DLC pack. People move onto other games after a month usually (even less sometimes), nevermind 5 months.

Not just talking about Treyarch here, they all do it.

I might have bought the DLC back in December, but definitely not now. Especially not with KZ2 2 weeks away!

Wow Larry, I figured if anyone was buying it, you would! Even with KZ2 two weeks away.

I didn't see Treyarch releasing new maps a month after release though...

As enticing as it is, I just was thinking, and it would probably be a waste of money for me. I (will) have KZ2, FEAR 2, Crysis Warhead (might beat it by then actually), and Team Fortress 2 (which I have yet to play), that I am trying to juggle. Also throw in SKATE 2 which it seems we all just kind of abandoned at once LOL So just not sure when I would squeeze it in.

I told you and I think you might have though I was kidding, but I probably will never reach prestige. Same exact thing happened with COD4. I got close to prestige, then just lost interest because of newer games that came out. Same thing also happened, I bought the COD4 first map pack on Day 1, and then maybe played those maps for about 3 weeks or so, and not all that much. So just trying to save some money if possible. I have always said though, WaW is the game I can always come back to, so maybe I will buy it after-all, who knows LOL

I thought someone posted a link further back saying the DLC was free?

Or was that just a map?

I suppose what am I thinking anyway, substantial free DLC on a console? HAHA. Yeah right... [well Criterion, I guess I wave at you guys for doing it right]

One map is free, the pack probably won't be.

And it was free on the pc, not the consoles :p

Although AJ will jump in here and tell us all of his favourite member over at Xbox.com who says otherwise :p

Wait, so the single map that is coming is rumoured to be costing on the consoles, but it's free on the PC?

God damnit, you console bunch gotta stop taking it up the ass and start being more vocal about this monetizing everything crap :laugh: I'm at the plea of the developers when it's just console content, but when it's coming to the PC for free and it's costing on consoles, that is outright BS. Absolutely non-defendable.

Console owners already pay more for the game than PC owners, and it's somehow right to charge console owners for DLC the PC gets for free? No, GTFO. Whoever is making that decision is a douche.

Can't blame the people who love the game and want more content for buying it, but man, people gotta make their voices heard more often about the DLC money dripping.

Well AJ and I have a little "arguement" going on right now.

I read the news over at VG247 that daytime Makin is free & exclusive to the PC.

AJ read news posted by a member of the Treyarch dev team over at Xbox.com forums, who said it was coming to consoles & will be free.

So I guess we just need to wait and see, but so far, only that one post on Xbox.com even mentions it. Even the news from COD.com posted on the previous page doesn't mention it. Click me

You know what would happen with a map released on the PC for a price? A few people with buy it and just release it everywhere, community sites/forums and even torrent sites. They won't make much money from it.

There's ways around that with DRM and such. The problem here is that the console market is much larger, so they can make a hell of a lot more money from the consoles than they can from the PC buyers.

DRM on a few / one map file(s) ... ? I doubt that would go down well with anyone, not to mention it's an easy crack. The console is the perfect place to charge for contents because they will actually make a nice buck, simple as.

Well you could ponder that, or just look back through the PC history, for YEARS PC owners have received fair amounts of free content. It's never really been on developers minds to slap PC owners silly with every single map/map pack costing money. PC owners typically pay for EXPANSIONS, not 1 or 2 new maps.

Because it's been that way for so long, devs know if they even try to monetize everything they'll get torched alive. Whilst most console owners just bend over and pay out cash like an ATM every time a map pack is released. It's even funnier when they're made free later.

It's like, we'll just screw the hell out of you guys the first 6 months making you pay, then release it for free. It's a nice big FU cycle.

I don't mind a balance, I know not every dev is going to be as kind as valve and completely renew games with tons of free content. So far Criterion have been pretty respectful with their console DLC. However some devs charge for everything they pass our way.

One day you're going to go online and your character will be a black silhouette till you individually buy each body part from an online DLC store.

AND to top it all off, console games not having server browsers is a tragedy when you pay out for a new map pack and get to play your new maps 3 times out of 10.

It's like, we'll just screw the hell out of you guys the first 6 months making you pay, then release it for free. It's a nice big FU cycle.

I'm sorry but paying a few dollars for a few maps / gamemodes / whatever and then see it released for free 6 months later would not make me feel screwed or ripped off, the amount I paid would certainly have been made up with the time spent on the maps. Perhaps a shorter time span :p

It's the notion that the content can be made free, the devs are just charging to make a killing from all the desperate fans craving new content. Again, I go back to balance, you want to do this with one or two map packs, and give us others for free, fine. You want to charge for every single map pack you release, GTFO.

Yeah and wouldn't you do that as well if you had a game company? Whenever there's a Sony related discussion you manage to see the view point from Sony's side, from the corporate side but this time you are down among the fans - No don't get offended, just an observation with a smile attached. Having console gamers that are more than willing to pay for content may also entice developers to actually create the content and allow more funds to be allocated for creation of quality DLC. How could we be sure the quality wouldn't just drop all to hell if everything was made free? Yes there's a lot of companies who just push crap out the door but there's also some quality DLC out there.

Not denying they will take advantage of users but can't just point fingers at every developer and scream "Lame!"

    • You sound like some Ukrainians in Crimea before 2014: "I didn't vote for USSR disbanding - I want Ukraine to be part of Russia again" 🤣
    • Uninstalr 3.1 by Razvan Serea Introducing Uninstalr: Easy to use and very accurate software uninstaller for Windows. It can uninstall multiple apps at the same time and we think it’s pretty cool. Developed with expertise by Macecraft Software - the minds behind jv16 PowerTools. Key Features Batch uninstall many apps at the same time. Supports unattended uninstallation of apps. Supports monitoring of new software installations. Also detects portable apps and previously uninstalled software leftovers. Shows all the data added to your system by installed software on a file by file basis. Shows all the data it will remove before starting the uninstallation. Filter and search the list of installed software. According to our benchmark, Uninstalr is the most accurate software uninstaller by leaving the least amount of leftovers when uninstalling apps. Supports detection and uninstallation of Microsoft Store, Steam, Big Fish Game System, Chocolatey, NuGet and Ninite installed software. Supports Windows Dark Mode. Supports Windows 11, 10, 8 and 7. Comes with these translations builtin: Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Czech, Danish, English, Filipino, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian and Vietnamese. Has a single executable file portable version and a normal setup version. Uninstalr is freeware, lightweight and easy to use. No bells and whistles, no nonsense. Uninstalr’s custom uninstallation engine has a dedicated support for the detection and uninstallation of 15 types of apps: Normal Windows apps Microsoft Store apps Portable apps Chocolatey apps Ninite apps PortableApps.com apps Steam games EA App games Epic Games Store games Riot platform games GOG Galaxy games WarGaming.net games Battle.net games itch.io games Big Fish platform games Uninstalr 3.1 changelog: Key Changes Uninstalr now starts and shows the list of installed apps faster after the initial scan has been completed, and with much smaller memory usage. Uninstalr now detects and highlights apps that automatically start with Windows. Greatly improved the detection of portable apps. Improvements New feature: Uninstalr now detects and highlights apps that automatically start with Windows. New feature: Uninstalr now highlights possible leftovers and apps from Russia and China. This can be disabled from the Settings. New feature: A new filter that allows you to show only software that is installed to other than the system drive. New feature: Users can now select to always do the deepest and the most accurate scan for installed apps, at the cost of the analysis taking a longer time. Greatly improved the detection of portable apps, such as added dedicated support for MiTeC, EZ Tools and SysInternals tools. Improved support for portable apps installed via Windows System Control Center (WSCC). NirSoft portable apps are now listed with "NirSoft" prefix for easier identification. Improved the speed of uninstalling apps. The main installed software listing search will now find "Xbox GameBar" if you search for "Game bar" and vice versa. The tooltip now displays more detailed information of the installed apps, such as its registry key and uninstaller path. The links in the About section now look more like clickable links. The main menu is now more clearly indicated in the main user interface. Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office ships with some Windows 11 installations and is now considered a builtin Windows app and only listed if builtin Windows apps filter is enabled. Added a Help button to the main user interface that opens the help section of the website. Added an option not to close Uninstalr after uninstallation. If you open the Uninstalr website from the app, the website now receives the version number of your current Uninstalr version and warns you if you are using anything but the latest version. Improved the accuracy of the New Software Monitor. Improved confirmation messages for Steam and other platform related uninstalls. Improved the uninstallation performance of Steam games. Fixes: Known bug fixed: Some installed app names are capitalized incorrectly, such as "CCleaner Portable" is listed as "ccleaner portable". Known bug fixed: Some apps can be listed twice, for example, Smart Defrag can be listed once as Smart Defrag and then Smart Defrag Home. Known bug fixed: On the pre-uninstallation screen, the Scripts checkbox can be checked by default on Dark Mode but not on the normal mode. Known bug fixed: Perform Deep Analysis can be started only by clicking the button, not via the Right Click menu, main menu or F4 keyboard shortcut. Muse Hub could be incorrectly listed as Adobe Muse. SyncTrayzor was incorrectly detected as two unrelated software, SyncTrayzor and Syncthing. Smart Defrag was incorrectly listed twice as Smart Defrag 11 and Smart Defrag Home. It was possible to enter non-printable characters to the search input boxes of the main screen, and the path listing screen, which caused the UI to look funny. Changing the translation from Settings, especially many times in a row, caused the UI to distort. If you had multiple instances of portable apps on your system, such as the 64b and 32b versions of the same portable app, typically only one of them was detected, not both. In some very rare cases, Uninstalr UI could start with random characters in its search input boxes, which could make the UI look rather confusing. This was a rare issue, only reported by two users. The pre-uninstallation screen could display non-existing paths for example as the software's installation directory or main exe file. This was a cosmetic issue. New Software Monitor cannot detect the installation of Claude. Selecting all the found software made the UI look funny with the top panel covering everything else (because the names of all the selected software were listed there). Sometimes a Steam game could be listed a normal app instead of a Steam game. If the system restart after an uninstallation is delayed, e.g. because of Windows Updates being installed, this additional delay is incorrectly added to the time how long the uninstallation process took. This cosmetic bug could cause the program incorrectly report an uninstallation time longer than the actual uninstallation time. Uninstalling Minecraft could simply fail. The Only scan the system drive for installed apps setting does not fully work. If some apps are installed to a non system drive and this setting is enabled, the app could still be detected and listed on the main user interface. Changing any settings could also incorrectly alter the Only Scan The System Drive For Installed Apps setting. Microsoft OneDrive and Copilot are not always detected. If you enter something to the search filter field, then select the text and press the Delete key, this triggers the Uninstall button click even if your intent was to delete the text input. If you press the F5 key to refresh the screen during the uninstallation loading screen, the program will crash. If you enabled some setting, such as "Do not analyze installed app installation sizes", it could automatically be unchecked later. Uninstalr doesn't warn you if you try to remove Fortec antivirus. There should be a warning if user attempts to remove any antivirus or antimalware type program. Such programs should not be uninstalled using a third party uninstaller, as they are typically protected against automated uninstallation, for security reasons. With "Do not analyze installed app installation sizes" option checked from the Settings, Uninstalr could still display some installation size related elements in the UI which was confusing. The "Only scan the system drive" option moved under Improve Scan Speed from the General settings. If two software have the exact same name and version number, selecting both of them for uninstallation fails because only one is actually selected. Sorting the installed apps by size sometimes fails and the order is incorrect. The "Don't show which paths are currently analyzed" did not work correctly - some parts of the UI still show the currently analyzed path with this setting checked. The "Don't list software less than 10 MB" filter did not work correctly - some apps smaller than 10 MB could still be listed. Uninstalr could start very quickly and display an empty list of detected apps. Restarting the app usually fixed the issue and the list of installed apps was properly displayed. If you placed portable Uninstalr to a same folder with other portable apps, those were not detected because Uninstalr automatically added its installation folder to the ignore list. When trying to uninstall some specific software, Uninstalr could get stuck on the Searching for more data relating to the app phase. Uninstalr could sometimes do a silent uninstallation even if user had unchecked the Perform a silent uninstallation option. Known issues: Uninstalr can fail to run with an Out Of Memory error in systems that have a lot of installed apps. Using the New Software Monitor tool multiple times during one session can cause the program to get stuck on the Scanning stage. The "uninstallation completed" message box sometimes closes when the user moves the mouse cursor over the button before user clicks it. There is no feedback for the user after Fix Information feature has been used. The Right Click menu's Select by publisher option can display the number of apps per each publisher without correct vertical alignment. The default user interface might not display all of the found installed apps if you have over 600 installed apps. If you do, using the Screen Reader Compatible Interface solves the issue. Leftover apptype filter checkbox is shown in red font only in Dark Mode. Clicking the app's icon from the Windows Taskbar doesn't minimize/restore the app like other apps. The warning about an app that user wishes to uninstall being related to some other app user did not select can sometimes be inaccurate. If app's language is changed without restarting Uninstalr, the list of installed software might not automatically refresh. When software is being uninstalled, the UI can say it is processing paths unrelating to the uninstalled app. This is purely cosmetic and does not mean these paths are removed. Uninstalr might not properly detect and/or uninstall Steam games if they are installed to a drive different than Steam's default location in C:\. You might see "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed" error message from Windows Installer during uninstallation. This is a cosmetic issue.

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Hello, Paul. Thanks for the editorial. It was interesting. I'm going research more into the app and its concept. Of course, if you know me at all, you know that I'd say your articles needs some editing! I always do, don't I? For instance, the article occasionally mentions relays before defining it.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
