Will it be possible to pre-order this game, get the email, then cancel said order?

Also, which site is it? The four letter word ending with Y?

Only for one round, haven't got it personally yet. It compared to the heli on open levels like bog.

It was fun at first to follow the dogs and pick off poor saps trying to shoot a dog. Then you realise you have just gone 200 points in the lead in a deathmatch game and the guy who released the dogs can set some more off.

Its not like the heli because you can shoot that, shooting the dog just respawns another dog. If you shoot you draw in enemy who shoot you again, thus letting them build up a streak.

Totally pointless.

I would imagine they will get feedback on it if it is that bad and it will be toned down either for launch or in a later patch, if it is as bad as you say it is. I don't know AS I STILL HAVEN'T HAD A ****ING EMAIL!

:D

Yeah I am hoping they do respond to the feedback. Imagine shooting down the chopper and it spawned another. Thats what it's like. Your best bet is to not shoot, use the knife on the dogs if you can but people still will follow the path of the dogs right to you for a stack of easy kills.

Not only that it takes multiple bullets from a rifle or just about a clip from a hand gun to put them down. I thought they were dogs not ****ing battle cat.
 
The dogs need to go, they are beyond overwhelming. The chopper wasnt much of an issue on COD4 as its totaly reasonable for a heli gunship to nail you if you stand around in the line of sight. Not robo-dog though.

I dont really enjoy TDM on 4 so this is sitting pretty well on WaW, deffo looking forward to the HC versions as the maps so far are great.

Ill be on later for a bit of this and no doubt some Modern Warfare :cool:
 
i don't really like it,the maps are way over cluttered,the accuracy seems to be way off compared to cod4,no way will you be getting one shot kills with a pistol on this game.The graphics are bland,the dog perk is rubbish.The main thing i think spoils the game is the sound effects,there is no atmosphere like there is when playing cod4.
 
well I like it! Dogs would be a really good idea if they did not respawn and the artillary goes on too long.
I love the maps and the weapons are no where near as bad as I expected. In fact I like some of them more.

Anyway, I will be on in about an hour if anyones about

The sound is poor in comparison as Simon mentioned in game. I still think you will get the one bullet pistol kills on HC.

I think the only reason the accuracy seems off is because of the number of americans your having to play due to them getting the beta earlier.

I have found the accuracy to be fine, if not a bit better than 4 in some instances.

I dont think the rifles are powerfull enough though. It takes too many bullets compared to the machine gun.

You get the usual cod rubbish though, you think a guy has killed you with one bullet, you watch the replay and in fact he put a magical clip in you.

I think the maps so far are much better layouts than Cod 4's. More positions to snipe from with rifles. No obvious choke points and pretty balanced.

Get rid of the dogs and this would probably be my new online shooter.

That happens in Halo 3 and GoW too (played with krono next to me online and was shocked at how different things looked on each console) but in CoD you have the instant replay feature which makes things far more obvious.
 
Yeah I just had a couple of games and oneshot was on the other team. He was two Bar connection to me and I watched the replays a couple of times when he killed me. Twice I was prone waiting for him to come round the corner, as soon as he came round I was shooting him.

One bullet and he's killed me.

I watch the replay and he comes round the corner and fires a clip with the MG into me. The lag is so long it looks like I haven't even seen him there. Its nothing like what happened on my screen.
 
i was using the japanese bolt action befor and it took 2 shots to kill a guy and it was pretty hard to hit him,i was lucky because he was standing still , if he moved then there was no way id of killed him,but surely they should have made the rifles more powerfull as its harder to get a kill with one of those then just spraying with mp40,it should be one shot kill with bolt actions
 
Oneshot I think your comparing HC TDM on COD 4 to this beta, which is a bit unfair as the health is drastically less. Youve never really been able to get one shot kills in COD4 normal health unless its a sniper with one of the head/neck/torso multipliers.

I agree with the bolt actions though, takes ages and leaves you exposed, I guess that was the nature of war 60 years ago, atleast its not blunderbuss's and muskets :D

Lag is always an issue, this seems to have an local area bias for matchmaking which may help if you look at the instructions. Some of the comments I get on S&D when im alive always amaze/annoy me when i nail a guy on my screen but the others see something totally different/a pseudo retard.
 
Bolt actions are nigh on useless as you give yourself away with the first shot and then have to wait ages to reload by which time you've been sprayed by someone with a sub machine gun :(
 
Yeah I really think they should do something with the weapons balance. Those weapons should be a one shot kill, hardcore mode or not. The same with the rifle, it should be a two bullet kill. Not the 6 it takes while someone is halo jumping with a subMG.

Or instead reduce the accuracy of the automatic weapons. I'm stopping with the beta now until they open up some more ranks. Nothing more to be learned really.
