You know Draken, you don't need to post an image everytime a game leaks. A simple comment will do.

PSW Give Call of Duty: World at War 10/10 - Better Than COD4 - http://n4g.com/News-228003.aspx

10/10?

Must a case of getting scoop on the first review?

Let's hope the game is that good overall, but we'll see.

[SMELTN]

yeah I don't see it being a 10/10. 8/10 I can deal with... But "better than CoD"? come on

gtfo, there is no way it's 10/10.

Anyone here going to the 24hr COD5 launch party hosted by Activision and Alienware?. Can't beat free babes, cod5 and free drinks.

So I just played it for around 2 - 3 hours and judging from the Co-op maplist, already halfway through the game. Everything I feared about this title has come through! The pacific war is the most boring setting for a World War 2 game. When playing as the American, you just jump from island to island doing exciting tasks as mow down a million Japs and taking out some AA emplacements. You wade through these immensely boring forests settings to shoot some japs jumping out from behind some bushes or trees. This is occasionally broken up by an assault on some empty place with a concrete building and a bunker. The only juicy part of the game is the Russian campaign where you do feel somewhat at home in the Call of Duty universe ... Sadly it just "Feels" like playing the previous WW2 based Call of Duties :/ There is no "Story" like with CoD 4, where every unit you played as had a common goal. Here you are back to the old Call of Duty style, each mission is just a new, random objective.

They even failed to capture that 'epic' feeling with the standard bravado music. Those 'victory' scenes as I'd like to call them, they are just so "Meh". This is definitely down to the severely lacking sound aspect of the game, which is really a killer for this game. You have planes flying over head ... They don't make a single sound until they are pretty much above your head, yet they still sound like planes flying a few miles away. Distant gunfire on for an example beach landings are also mute, you don't hear a single thing from those mounted machine gun emplacements, you just see a perfectly straight line of tracer fire over your head. Also mentioned this with the Multiplayer Beta ... The weapon sounds are pathetic! Sounds like a kid banging on empty tin cans with a tiny spoon, every single weapon.

As a side mention, they recycled the old German voices from Call of Duty 2 or 3 ( Both? ) where they yell the same 4-5 lines with the exact same voice as the old games, definitely recycled.

Then not to mention the mountains of tiny bugs, animation issues, odd 'invisible' walls etc. which is definitely signature for Treyarch. I even managed to do an achievement that didn't even unlock so it seems exactly like Call of Duty 3 where they had tons of achievement bugging issues but hopefully that was just a one off.

Game is no better than Call of Duty 3 honestly, definitely does not come close to Call of Duty 4 at all.

( This is my opinion, bla. bla. )

Yeah, that's absurd. The campaign on CoD4 is better than CoD:WaW's as well (so far from what I've played).

[Browno]

Does the torrented one only work on Modded 360's?

[Brad.]

Yeah, but I don't have a modded 360 :p

[Browno]

33Brad, and how did you play it?

Edit: Some bloke on the Xbox.com forums, has 1000GS from it already, blatently hacked. :laugh:

I'll agree with that. I've been playing the demo/beta a LOT .. but it's just a rehash.

[Spookie]

Hmm AI is f-ing awful too. They either stand there and shoot, or magically spawn out of no where, move three feet, throw a nade, THEN shoot till they die.

If this gets 10/10 off anyone that mag is on the take from Activision.

Yeah :/

[Badie05]

Loving the beta.

[Spookie]

Also why is there no recoil what so ever from a unmounted, standing MG?!

Oh and a WWII tank reloads faster than you can **** a shotgun. :laugh:

Or any gun. IIRC in Call of Duty 4 the gun would go flying everywhere if you weren't aiming.

Aye. It is a bit of a joke tbh. Oh and a WWII tank reloads faster than you can prep a shotgun. :laugh:

Was going to stick the money in the till for this. It can go back on the shelf it's f-ing awful! :)

Yeah I'm really debating buying this now too. As people have said Left4Dead blows it away.

[SMELTN]

While I am definately buying it, I am ****ed off at some of the problems.. Spookie I am with you on the MG, if anyone has played Day of Defeat or hell any other WW2 game for that matter, they know the MG should be spraying to the sky after you press the trigger while standing and walking around.. Much less any other weapons..

It has its problems, as I called from the beginning because its being made by Treyarch, but it's still fun, and a new version/reskinning of COD4.. So I am still going to get it.

Still think its only a 8/10 at best
