COD 4 multiplayer still quite good?

[Final8y]

Ahhhh.

See on console this wasn't much of a problem with only 8 players aside but I can see it being mass suck on PC, which is a shame because i've waited since release to play it on PC.

I remember on CoD:UO when you got 20 or 40 kills or whatever it was set to and 30 seconds after you spawned you could call in artillery...that was vicious.

I think another problem is that you keep the call-in if you die before you used it which is silly as i don't know of any other game that lets you keep your Combo price if you die before used & all this is stems from the console side being brought over seeing as its much harder to get the combos.

 

[Final8y]

Kind of backed up my point, the gun dosen't matter it's the fact it's a low skill game. I want to be challenged, CoD:WaW offers this over CoD 4.

CodWaW is indeed more challenging & hope that coming patches will smooth out the rough edges in other areas of the game.

CoD4 on 360 i'm sure if you died you didn't keep your bonuses for kill streaks?

Please tell me you're joking? Full-automatic SMG sprays with little to no recoil over distance, whilst bolties quite often don't kill in one hit to the chest? It's a spray game.

Edit. My opinion is based on the 360 version, and I would be delighted if the PC version works well. I used to love CoD.

CoD4 and WaW are both pretty **** when it comes to spray and pray.

UAV, air-strike and chopper are retained if you die. Also, if you kill enough to move up to the next one before using the last on then you lose it. Eg, you hang onto air-strike (not using it) whilst you're still busying mowing down the enemy and then you get given chopper. Once you use chopper, you do not then have air-strike. It's a good idea otherwise it would be even more of a air-strike/chopper spam fest.

Go try tdm mode 32 player on a map like downpour.

Shock horror. 32 players TDM on a small map sucks.

Under 16 players Team gametypes like Sabotage is awesome fun

On pc is it 3 kills UAV, 5 kills Air strike, 7 kills chopper? Cus whilst that seems fine for console seems a little low for pc.

I have only just started playing WaW & get owned so it would be impossible for me to think otherwise from personal experience of the 2 games at this time other than that WaW is harder.

I haven't put that many hours into it, but from what I have played, COD4 online is very fun. Highly recommended.

How about trying, tdm on large servers regardless of map in this game sucks full stop? Its dominated by callins and dodgy spawn points, the spawns have been dodgy since the original cod on the pc and still havn't been fixed.

 

[PinkFloyd]

Does it really suprise you that 32 players in a game like COD4 ends up a spamfest? I would have thought that would be blatantly obvious...

cod4 online is awesome. And that's a fact.

Not really, it wasn't as bad in the first game, once they started consolising the game with weapons that had little to no recoil then started bringing in map owning callins it started sliding downhill.

If it was a console game...oh wait.

You are wrong. It is appalling on console.

Its the same game on either format with crappier controls and slightly crappier gfx for the console versions.

Exactly. All fps on consoles are rubbsih, because you either can't aim for **** or it has auto lock-on, which takes the fun out of it.

Well its worse than that on 48+ servers.

But i love it all the same

Yeah because all console players/games can't aim without auto-lock.

Also check out his other videos. He's probably better than most players who uses mouse + keyboard.

Amen!

I only play Hardcore and usually just S&D with a max of 20 players, n00bs need not apply! the idiots soon leave because they can't instantly re-spawn, fast reactions, good aim and tactics are whats needed, makes for the best game imo.
