CoD letdown?
 
Is it? I personally think so. Random jumpers, leaners, useless bolt action rifles except for sniepr rifles, spray and pray hosers and some really cramped maps. I got CoD expecting a hybrid of Day of Defeat plus Medal of Honor graphics. What I got was Medal of Honor with a bren and stock prone. The models are at best 'sub par' or however you spell it. The death cam thiny is a nice little addition but MP is a waste. Good luck trying to find a server that isn't full or running Search and Destroy. The sounds are kinda crappy and they didn't put much effort into them. The PPSh and the Mp40 sound the same. MG's like the BAR,StG and Bren seem to own everything. You can throw gernades the length of football fields and you can't even cook em :( my speciality. I'll try playing it tonite searching for the best, but getting the worst probally. annoy:

[DAS REICH] Blitz 10-30-2003 08:40 PM

Butters wtf.... i thought it was fucking fantastic

Snuff 10-30-2003 08:50 PM

Does the game run smooth?

Airborne Butters 10-30-2003 09:06 PM

Game runs smooth for me, fantastic. Just the MP is horrid

newt. 10-30-2003 09:47 PM

they got mods for sound.

Dragonwraith 10-30-2003 10:16 PM

i agree with butters, now where near living up to the hype. Patiently waiting for MOH:PA rock:

bah, ill still buy it, I need a new game to keep me busy.

Machette 10-30-2003 10:51 PM

Heard it's mint

Dont see why people are comparing it to dod. We all knew call of duty was gonna be arcade styled in multiplayer mode, wasn't a suprise to me at all. Comparing it to dod is pretty dumb since theyre not designed alike in mp at all.

One goes for "realism" and fucking fails miserably with its uber rail gun karbiner. And the other is just similar to mohaa but with improvements.

COD is awesome. As far as your complaint about servers... of course they are going to suck for a few days. People are running them off of DSL and cable connections. It's taking the larger server rental companies a day or two to write all the necessary files. Give it time.

Pyro 10-31-2003 01:00 AM

Tribes is better.

Judas 10-31-2003 01:18 AM

i like it.

jumping around ... spray and pray (which you cant do with most weapons if you want to kill) ... doesnt bother me a bit. i played it for probably 3 hours straight and never once felt like leaving ... the only other game thats done that for me is et ... so ill mess around with it for a bit.

K9Cop 10-31-2003 01:29 AM

COD sucks!

i couldnt disagree more. here are my thoughts on cod.

[url="http://www.callofdutyx.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=573"]http://www.callofdutyx.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=573[/url]

rock: best game i have ever played. hands down. both mp and sp.

Airborne Butters 10-31-2003 03:06 AM

I'm just not wowed by it. I dunno, I'm really biased twoards DoD being best Squad based WW2 game. As for Gerards complaint on KAR cannons; I agree. But I tell ya what, just hop once and kar bitches are owned. I usally get KAR whores before they can get me.

JBird 10-31-2003 03:21 AM

dod sleeping: lol. that doesnt even come close to cod. but whatever, your not liking this game isnt gonna sway me .

SoLiDUS 10-31-2003 04:33 AM

I entered the game expecting another MOH:AA ...

BOY WAS I WRONG!

This game is fucking elite! Not only does it run smoothly, but the A.I. does
not look so godly anymore. I played the game for 2 hours without seeing
the time go by: that, and that alone, is the mark of a good game. At least,
a well designed game, anyway...

I don't understand the bashing... seriously. I'm the king of nitpicking and I
couldn't find anything negative to talk about so far. The only thing might be
that the A.I. has a preference (50% of the time) to shooting you instead of
the other 4 guys with you: even then, it isn't that noticeable unless you like
staying out in the open.

Great game so far...

SoLiDUS 10-31-2003 08:19 AM

I'm already in Russia so I assume the game will end soon, which saddens
me: I love this game! cry:

Agreed.

The MP maps were, IMO, the oppostie of what butters said. They were huge and spray and pray doesnt work. No good servers yet, so no one can host as many players as these maps deserve. It does have a bit of that dejavu feeling to it, but its a solid game.

pest 10-31-2003 08:47 AM

If you are worried about servers, ours just went online.

Dedicated, 20 slots, good pipeline.

IP 216.52.202.12

(type "/connect 216.52.202.12" in the console without the "")

if anyone gets a chance, let me know how it runs. I wont be able to get online until probably late tonight.

Zoner 10-31-2003 09:31 AM

Some people will never EVER be happy with games. There's always someone who's expectations are so high that when they aren't reached (which would be impossible), they dismiss the game as shit. Were you expecting it to lick your nuts while you played it?

Sorry if I'm ranting, but the friggin' game has been out for a day. A DAY! Give it a chance and wait for the players to build good MP servers and communities. Yeesh! rolleyes:

10-31-2003 09:32 AM

I didn't think MP was too bad.

All I know is my Garand brings people down in one shot now.
All of you who are complaining must be pissed because you can't run around with STG and hit anything while moving.


The fact that the STG is no longer as annoying as the MOHAA one makes this game better. Every time I heard the brarararararar of an STG whore I wanted to come too their house and bash their head in with a baseball bat, they led me to playing with virtually no sound.

bunch of fuckin lies... DoD sucks... CoD owns. WhoTF plays DoD anyway and the MP is horrid. It runs smooth and its hella fun to play. Feels like a mix of ET and MOH.

Damn
 
There was a 64 person server open and it ran completely filled the entire time. I know in my experience with Mohaa, that anything over 20 people feels like you are walking through a time warp. This server never lagged, even with 64 people in it. They definitely fixed it so it would run better than Mohaa.

Airborne Butters 10-31-2003 02:39 PM

The MP is just not as real as I was hoping it'd be. From the videos,articles,reviews, etc.... I was expecting Day of Defeat gameplay with pretty new graphics. The health packs are lame and the panzer faust will get annoying I can tell. I'm still gonna play in hops that mods and patches breath life into this game. A bunch of DoD clanmates are getting this game so maybe that'll help the struggling MP. I do have to say though, the maps are nice. They're very detailed and such but they could be just a teed bit bigger.

lol, not realistic? you know you can turn the healthpacks off right? ive played in 2 or 3 servers with no health.

panzerfaust annoying? have you even played this game? if you did you would know that you cannot choose it as your weapon , you must find the ammo crate with the panzerfausts in it. you would also know that there are only 4 in a box, after that, no more panzerfausts.

good luck with your outdated, 3 yr old game though. oh, have you ever played the REALISTIC carantan map in cod? cant get more realistic than that. its an exact copy of the village. feels like your in band of brothers. have fun with dod beer:

Airborne Butters 10-31-2003 04:05 PM

see that's the problem. Some servers will have health packs,this and that off, etc... each server is almost like a diffrent gameplay. Also you'll note that I did give the maps credit saying they were nice. It does get annoying when your playing a map and every one is a sniper except you. It's like running through a bunch of people throwing rocks.

Bucknub 10-31-2003 04:18 PM

about to install it biggrin:
