I am reading about more squad based online play?

Is that true, to what extent? I am reluctant to purchase the game because I do not know if it will bring anything more to the table than Call of Duty 4. If someone can persuaded me to get it...

For the past year COD 4 has been my main Lan Party Game. I thought about getting Quake Wars since it is more team based. I just want to know the extent of team based stuff in multilayer COD World At War has.

My opinion on this game is not outstanding. I tried to play single player but it just doesn't work for me. Its way too bloody. You can actually see a grenade blow open someones head. The blood is so real i get goosebumps.. As for multi player well that's better. But if you played beta, you will be disappointed. What does killing Zombies have to do with WW II?

If you ask me, cod4 is way better.

In case you don't know the cod series are made bye 2 publishers : Infinity Ward and Activision.

Call of Duty 1: Activision = Failure

Call of Duty 2: Infinity Ward = Huge success

Call of Duty 3: Activision (not for PC) = Total Failure

Call of Duty 4: Infinity Ward: Complete success

Call of Duty 5: Activision = Well follow the pattern!

Um no. Activision have published all the CoD games, and Infinity Ward or Treyarch have made them all.

CoD1, 2, and 4 were made by Infinity Ward. While CoD3 and 5 were done by Treyarch.

err wrong.

Activision are the Publishers of all the COD series. The 2 designers of the games are Infinity Ward and Treyarch.

But Fill in Treyarch on all the lines you have Activision and yeah.. You are right, but just wanted to make that correction.

And yeah United Offensive wasn't bad either.

There is far more developers who have worked on COD than just IW and Treyarch :p See post above!

I bought Call of Duty: World at War Collectors Edition and here is my review;

The game itself is awesome. Very realistic with actual bodily damage being shown. Though it's a bit too realistic in the multiplayer concerning the weaponry. It takes almost an entire clip to kill a guy on multiplayer. By the time I get artillery, I am already scrambling to find another weapon or ammo. The single player is awesome, love the flamethrower. What I hate though is that the grenade indicator shows up too late or doesn't show up at all, so I am going "WTF" half the time.

The Collectors Edition is another story. It's a waste of $20! It's pure bull**** and an example of false marketing.

The CE comes with;

- Call of Duty Canteen (Not intended for drinking)

- Unlocked lvl 45 FG-42 weapon (I think, I am at school so I don't know the actual weapon)

- Customizable Clan tag

- Week of double XP

- Storage tin with custom artwork.

Now here is where the problems start;

- Canteen is actually a tin with cap welded on and horribly engraved "Call of Duty", therefore it's paperweight, even for a collector.

- FG-42 is unlocked, ONLY in pre-made classes. To use it in custom classes you have to go up to lvl 45.

- The clan tag IS NOT customizable. It simply changes colour to a barely noticable gold, in addition, this Gold colouring doesnt even show up some games. My friend confirmed this for me.

- Week of double XP.... not yet. They have not stated this week of double XP yet and have stated "until a later date".

- Storage tin my ass! Yes it is a storage tin, unfortunately the foam that was used to hold the canteen is GLUED into the storage tin. Therefore only 1/6 of the tin can actually be used for storage.

Well my point is that cod5 sucks lol...

It just isnt the cod series style. Way too much blood.

Sorry I had to laugh when you said it isnt COD because it has to much blood. You do know there is an option to turn the blood/gibs off right?

The only publisher is Activision. There are two developers working on CoD. Infinity Ward and Treyarch. CoD/2/4 were made by Infinity Ward and CoD3/5 by Treyarch. I currently don't have CoD5, but from the past 4 games, CoD4 is the best.

Seems to me most of the people that don't like this, don't like it because of the gore. I would like to know: if that gore wasn't there would it be a good game? I'm asking because no amount of gore is going to bother me and I just want to know about the game play/mechanics. Is it good or not? Try to look beyond the gore and give and informed, honest answer please. Does it stack up at all to the last one?

Yeah the funny part is, most people bitch about not having ENOUGH gore in a game.. Unrealistic blood/guts/etc.. It's actually quite funny.

Completed the game. I only just got it this morning, but I have been playing almost none-stop so it took about 5-6 hours. Pretty short, but the multiplayer is where it's all at. Anyone who buys CoD purely for the single player is.... not human. Although it was very fun, it felt alot like a CoD game unlike CoD 3. Treyarch have really done themselves justice with this game.

I just wish more people would host Domination servers on the PC, all servers seem to be TDM or S&D. I hate S&D with a passion, and I sometimes want something more than just TDM.

Well unlike COD4, I actually finished COD5.. cod4 wasn't bad but it was boring.. after a couple of levels in COD5 they started to up the pace and it was very fun. The battles were intense and it was a quite immersive. The blood, guts, limbs flying off & heads splitting open was a great addition to the game, so much more fun. I was sceptacle at first but it grew on me and I would recommend it except the campaign is too short, unless you're into multiplayer.
