cod world at war: buy or no buy?!

Post by woutR »

Should I buy world at war?

I really like WW2 shooters like Cod1 and cod2 but I dislike cod4. Especially because I spend most of my time playing publics and only 1/10th doing real matches so it's really important there's no claymore, grenades dropping when you die and that kind of random no skill shit.

Is it 1:1 copy from cod4 only different maps+skins or does it have some unique stuff.

still playing through the campaign, I have to say the weapon sounds are pretty crappy. For example the M1 Garand doesn't sound like it has any power at all compared to other WWII shooting games (ancluding CoD 1 and 2).

Mostly this. They added a few useless perks and tanks. There's still claymores (in the forms of bouncing betty's) and martydom etc. I don't mind the game I guess, but I didn't mind cod4 either.

I haven't played cod4 so I can't compare them but I would say that you should buy cod5. I like WW1-2 based fps more than modern ones. I've had a lot of fun while playing it. I have thrown that damn controller against wall couple of times when someone ends my killing spree but still I would say that it is best fps I've played. (I have played only free ones before cod5 though)

if you're more of a Pubber the game is worth it. If you like competition and matches stay away. Atleast for PC. Not sure what it's like on consoles (ewwww fps on consoles :P)

Powerlevel servers pretty much ruined the leveling up part (Remind you of any game? XD)

I just bought it, couldn't be arsed to wait for the download.

This is the first time I played singleplayer before multiplayer, but I really enjoyed single player.
As a matter of fact I'm not even done with single player. I like the weapons so far, but I don't really like the sounds.

In cod1 the kar, BAR and some other rifles sound like they mean business, but now they make crappy weak sounds. Just like the pistol.
The kar has got power, so give it the sound of power. I mean in CS, you have the deagle and awp, when you fire that shit you know it's going to rape just by hearing the sound. The kar sounds like a little girl's weapon.

Gonna play some more now. I think everyone should buy it, or at least download it for the single player.

I bought it a bit ago, and since I have Left 4 Dead & Gears 2 I kinda rolled my eyes at another zombie/defend an area type Game mode when I heard about it. But after I made it through the awesome Single Player and tested it out, Nazi Zombies is ridiculously fun all by itself. Even if you get bored of MP or feel its too COD4ish the Zombie mode is really fun and very challenging. Pretty pleased with it, although with the way things are I could have used the money toward something else :P

I love Nazy Zombies. It's so fun if you can get a full house of players. Otherwise you'll lose fast. 8)

They are accurate...its the people who arnt :P some people are good at Wii FPS but some (me :( ) arnt that good at them.

but MoH2 on the Wii is a brilliant game...most FPS games on the wii are good, i
find its kind of like a mouse setting. that is to say its sensitivity settings
and how the control's are made.

Saying that most EA games on the Wii suck :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
they dont bother remake controls suited to the Wii, just basic crappy ones.
