CoD2 and CoD2: Big Red One...

smids · 2 Feb 2006 at 17:45

Looked about a bit but can't get answers to these questions:

What's the difference? Which is better? Is BRO an expansion?

Many thanks. I'm thinking about buying CoD2 tomorrow so just wanted to make sure I got the right one. Getting bored of DoD:S now.

I think Big Red One is for the PS2 and Xbox i think? The normal one is only for 360 and PC AFAIK

Aaaah....now why can't someone just simply put that? Why change the name for the PS2/Xbox version? :rolleyes:

Thanks

I probably want it on my PC so CoD2 it is then. Not buying any more PS2 games till PS3

I believe it's a totally different game, CoD2: Big Red One is not CoD2. CoD2 is PC+360, BRO Xbox/PS2.

IIRC on BRO you are the french on some parts, where as you are not in COD2.

Those French levels must be easy. Spot German. Surrender.

What do you do in those missions?

Bend over and let the Germans take you roughly from behind?

Quick corporal Jaque, get the silver coffee service out, open the cafe and grab the bread the Germans are here!

I completed the game over-night and i can't remember there being any omaha beach? :confused:

I remember a beach with a cliff face you have to climb, but i was too busy dodging bullets to ask the life guard which beach it was

It wouldn't have been omaha because in the misson you were the british

William · 4 Feb 2006 at 20:22

It would have been Sword or Gold beach if you were British.

If you were American it would have been Utah.

If you were Canadian it would have been Juno.

Hooray for MOHAA history briefings.

benjo · 4 Feb 2006 at 21:18

I actually prefer Mohaa to CoD + CoD2 put together... Shame it doesnt run anymore! :mad:

richard1973 · 6 Feb 2006 at 09:30

am pretty certain it was ohmaha, as when the mission came up I though 'oh mohaa again' It started the same, i.e. you got off the boat but unlike mohaa where it was a mad struggle to get through the beach, in this one you kinda scuttled off to nearby cliffs with no hassle then climbed the rope. Am sure it was part of the american campaign? I maybe wrong it was about 6 weeks ago I played it.

Possibly Pointe du Hoc? To the right of the beach was a cliff scaled by the Rangers. Books > Games.

Correct. It is Pointe du Hoc.
