My bro's have it already on the 360, they get all their games a week early or so. I haven't played it yet, and I probably wont pick it up for the PS3, but I'll be able to play online w/ their 360.

I'll bump this thread when Im ready.

I been playing COD4 on PSn and t works great. I've never played live, so not able to make a comparison.

I been playing COD4 on PSn and t works great. I've never played live, so not able to make a comparison. Live is great but I want a service I don't have to pay for each member of my family to use. That aspect annoys the hell out of me. I am sure PSN is not perfect since it is free but hopefully is good enough to serve the purpose.

I'll miss Gears Horde mode but I'll live. heh

Even Nintendo's online is better than Live, as far as I'm concerned. If I had a 360, I wouldn't have online capability at all (as I refuse to pay for it).

I'll have it tomorrow for the 360. LOVE COD4.....this one should be cool.


I know I've said it before, but $50 for a year of Live is nothing. I know some of you don't want to spend that $50, but come on.....$4.17 a month......I bet most of you have that in your ash tray in your car.

You do realize it's not the same developer?

And you realize Infinity Ward is pretty pissed that in every single press conference and interview about World at War, they keep referencing COD4.

Mr. Plow

Ya. I know it's a different developer. I've seen some clips of the game and think it looks pretty cool....but, we'll see. I'm easy to please.

Its not the cost. Its the fact that they expect you to pay for each account in your family. Its a cash grab. Charge $50 per console per year then I am fine with it.

We have been sharing an account for the past year and my son hates it. We are switching to PSN. Hopefully, someday, M$ will stop doing this.

Actually, I can understand that. You get 2-4 people in your home playing, it can get expensive.

Either way, the Wii doesn't even need to be brought up in next-gen gaming threads. The online is what it is; worst of the bunch.

I can understand the people who don't want to pay for the service but if we can pretend for a moment XBL were free, it would crush its competitors.
I personally don't have a problem paying $50 a year for XBL

Even cheaper if you buy it through Amazon.com. The normal price for 12+1 month card is $38.99.

That is just over $3 a month.

LOL. I know what you mean. I'm just stuck on one weapon now because it's the only one I can seem to get kills with. As long as I can keep my k/d ratio around 1.00 until I get familiar....I'm cool. I'm at 1.18 right now, but I have matches where I go 5-18.....but I also have had a couple 25-4 matches so it all evens out.

Maps seem very big to me for some reason....lots of places to hide out for sniping & such.

The tanks piss me off sometimes, but it does make it more interesting.

Oh yeah.....fuck the dogs man. I swear I have "Hey Dogs, come eat me" written on my online forehead because every time they are called, two or three come directly for me. Fuckers.

Speaking of K/D Ratio,

I would consider myself Very Good at COD4, however, my K/D Ratio is like 1.04

This is because I sucked so bad until one day it clicked.

I think that I started out 500 Kills to 1500 Deaths .33 K/D Ratio

It took a lot for me to get back to even, and then I stopped playing.

I may pick up COD5 just so I can have a high K/D Ratio, Im hoping 2.0 or better.

I did the same thing. Started out at like .30 or something. I worked my way up to....I think like 1.10 or so on COD4. I'm shooting for 1.50 - anything above that I'm cool.

Yeah, some people can just play some games better. I suck on Socom.

2.0 K/D ratio is pretty high, but I figure that after starting 500-1500, I got to about 2100-2100 means that I went 1600 - 600, which is about a 2.67 K/D Ratio.

I dont know if I'll be able to do that w/ out the Red Dot Sight though, that thing sorta made it easy.

Those were my "go to" guns. When I can't seem to do anything else, I could always get kills with those two.

The Thompson is what I started with on WaW. Pretty similar to the mp5.

Just picked it up last night and put in about an hour of campaign and an hour of multiplayer.

Still figuring out how to combat the tanks. I just got to level 6 so I don't have a lot of weapons at my disposal yet. I was doing pretty well in free-for-all right off the bat, top 3 usually.

Campaign mode is just OK so far. I thought I'd enjoy it more. I'm really into wwII. I think the renders of the hard environments (structures, characters) are really nice. Water and smoke are weak. THough, I've been playing Killzone 2 so I'm totally spoiled. that game's gonna have a visual integrity possibly better than MGS4.

is it just me or does this game suck? I don't like it at all. They made last stand and juggernaut even more annoying and I don't think I will bother playing this again until there is a patch for the spawn points because it is just horrendous. At least 4 times per match somebody spawns right behind me or I spawn right in front of someone.

not digging it and I loved COD4 but then again COD4 was new and had original ideas, maybe I'm just bored with it but I'm having trouble getting past the fact that there are the same problems.

disappointed, I think I will just focus on the solo or co-op campaign and wait for a patch or something. in the meantime I will just play fallout 3 and WAR

It was a 2 for 1 post.

What's your tag? Mine's Cannon Fragger.

Mine's bigmoneygrip5 of the (dede) clan. My co-worker, who is nasty (around a 2-2.5 k/d ratio) Johnnykev and my two cousins play all the time. I'm having a lot more fun now that I've reached hardcore and am now the proud owner of two bouncing betty's.

I think I may tonight, rather than watch the Browns vs. Bills, lol.

So you're the guy that cheap kills me all the time.... Do me a favor and let your co-worker know I'm sending him a friend request.

Sounds like the kind of guy I like to play with. Do me a favor and let your co-worker know I'm sending him a friend request.

I just don't get this game. I played yesterday, started out ok (like 15-12 or so). Had two games in a row where I was 30+ kills & less 17 deaths. Then, I started going 5-15 & shit like that for like 5 games before I gave up.

I need to rekindle my love affair with COD4.

I kinda went through the same thing. I think the competition is getting more familiar with the maps, getting better weapons loads, etc.

I was playing last night and was just having a tough time keeping my K/D ratio up.

I still can't decide if jugernaut or increased bullet damage is a better perk.

I have increased damage on all my guns and still seems like it takes two seconds of constant firing to put a guy down.

On COD4, I used the increased bullet damage. Typically, I could hit them faster than they could hit me.

On COD WaW, I'm using juggernaut. Even if I hit them, the constant "bounce" of the weapon makes me readjust - means I need a bit more health.

I've experienced the exact same thing. I had made it up to a 1.30 k/d ratio and by the end of the night last monday, I was down around .90...i was so pissed off I actually thought about breaking the game in half. However, I played last night and did some work, so I'm good to go again.

I usually play with friends so we all use the last stand perk to revive each other. Don't focus on it but it saves a death or two every game.

I also use camouflage with silenced weapon (MP40) so they don't know where I"m firing from. Sometimes you can kill a guy without his teammates knowing and if you need to reload still be able to get another.

Bouncing Betty's for perk 1 of course (they're ridiculous)

This has translated to about a 2.2 k/d ratio for me. It's something I'd definitely look into trying for yourself.

Of course one of my friends k/d ratio is about 3.7 so that helps. :)

They're are WWII's version of the claymore. By the way, I think last stand is the CHEAPEST perk you can have. I refuse to use it whether it helps me or not. I've actually sniped someone from distance and they shot me in the head in last stand. It's just wrong.

Oh, it's rediculous Mr. Plow. It's happened three times to me. And, they stay alive for a lot longer in this one. I've also had a couple of times when I walked up on someone just chillin' in last stand for God knows how long and they took me out.

Mr. Plow
11-19-2008, 02:23 PM
I noticed that last night when my son was playing. He just laid there in last stand for a good 1-2 minutes. I could be exaggerating the time, but it sure seemed like that long.

It certainly has a bit of overpowering for those who are good with pistols. I also have a quick reload trigger so i sometimes start reloading before realizing they're not dead which sucks.

However, everything has its cheap points such as juggernaut. Too hard to kill, especially if the entire team is using it.

Mr. Plow
11-19-2008, 02:31 PM
I, unfortunately, am a juggernaut n00b on WaW. I hate it....but, it seems to be the only way I can stay alive long enough to get a few kills. Maybe I'm over exaggerating it....I am like 1.14 k/d ratio.

If anyone wants to get together and play as a group, shoot a FR to me.....HawkInHutch

It wouldn't save my co-op campaign last night. What's up with that?

And. It has online multiplayer but the other players have to have a live account? I love playing COD 5 online but bought it thinking it was like Halo 3 with the online multiplayer.

No. For some reason, they didn't add that to this one. I'm not sure why. But, my son & I just got done playing the Nazi Zombie game - that was pretty fun. Only made it to round 6.

What is the Nazi Zombie game? I just got the game yesterday and didn't see anything about nazi zombies.

Anyways, I bought the game based solely on the fact that CoD4 kicked so much ass, and I figured CoD WaW would be just as fun. After one day of playing it online, I would have to say it has lived up to my expectations. Its fun playing with old school guns, and the maps seem much larger and much more elaborate. I think I found my new addiction. I'll be playing online deathmatches a lot over the next week on xbox 360. My gamertag is RoyMunson58

You have to finish the single player campaign before it is unlocked. But, essentially, you are in a two story building. "Nazi Zombies" try to break into the building through the windows & such. As you kill zombies, you earn money. As you earn more money, you can buy different guns & such. You try to stay alive as long as possible. My son & I have managed to stay alive for 11 rounds.

It's pretty fun.
