Aerotop Dave Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 When is this game going to get good? I've just completed the British campaign in France (3/4 way through?) and so far I think it's very average. What's all the fuss about? It feels like I've seen it all before - snipe the mortar teams from the roof, shoot the planes, drive around in the cars and shoot at things, drive a tank, defend the house for 4 mins before you're relieved... I've done all this before in Medal of Honour and CoD. The only thing I like is that you can do objectives in no set order and the paths through towns and things aren't too linear (you can outflank machine guns nests by going behind houses for example). Other than that... hmmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angarak Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 I played the demo of COD2 and was disappointed with it, another over-hyped game IMO (like HL2 and Doom3). I also think it is still too linear (maybe it was just the demo). COD was the bee's knee's in its time due to the special effects, but they havents really made much of a 'leap' in COD2 from the original. Maybe FarCry spoiled me, as the only other good FPS recently was F.E.A.R * Sorry for trailing off topic a little * Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 It is very similar to the original, still great fun though and probably the best war 'sim' out there. But yeah, its a bit short. Its probably been hyped a lot due to it being an X-Box 360 launch title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyJawa Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Its a bit short but I enjoyed it, but quite frankly for me its the multiplayer which does it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerotop Dave Posted December 30, 2005 Author Share Posted December 30, 2005 Completed it last night and had my first taste of online today. Only played 3 maps but it seems pretty good online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 over-hyped game IMO (like HL2 as the only other good FPS recently was F.E.A.R Methinks you got those two the wrong way around -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Headroom Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Completed the single player mode, all a bit too easy, even after my buddy raved about it. Tried multiplayer and found it a lot better. Single player 4/10 :thumbdown multiplayer 8/10:clap: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyJawa Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Multiplayer defo faaaaaaaaaaaaaaar better than single player. Though they need to bring back punkbuster and the domination mode! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
