Call of Duty 5: Or Fuck you Treyarch, you are no Infinity Ward

The first details about upcoming Call of Duty 5 hit today. Unlike the modern CoD4, CoD5 will return to WWII. The game will be set in the Pacific Theater. Also unlike CoD4, the game won't be developed by Infinity Ward, but CoD3 dev Treyarch. The upcoming title will feature co-op — a first for the series. Also, multiplayer will feature vehicles and squad-elements as well. The game is truly multi-plat, and the Wii version is being developed by a separate Treyarch team and will support the Wii Zapper. The game is gritty, apparently. How gritty?

The opening scene of the first level we are shown is a Japanese commander stubbing a cigarette out in the eye of a prisoner before slitting his throat - the blood splatters and dribbles down the side of the tent you are being held in. He turns towards you to deal out the same treatment but help arrives just in time. Cue a daring level-long escape.

Stay away from this one. Treyarch makes the BAD COD's. Wait for Infinity Ward to do COD6.

And really, back to WWII? Who the fuck wants to play that again, especially after the awesomeness of COD4? Redonkulous.

Yeah, so who in their right mind thought this was a good idea? Another WW2 shooter. Yay. I say CoD6 should be a little more futuristic. Give me lazers and other high tech nonsense! Either that, or at least keep it in the mordern day, but no more WW2, damnit!

lazergunpewpewpew! hahaha. yah... totally tired of ww2 shooters. apparently treyarch didn't get the memo. i personally want a vietnam game that's as good as cod4. that would be fucking epic! although... there would just be mainly snipers. until you called in an airstrike that is. ka-blooey!

Why don't they ask fans of the game what they want? They just go and blow it out their ass.

[Abraham Smashington]

You cannot go back after COD4. WWI, WWII, Vietnam, these would all suck as we've played in those sandboxes for years now. I'm with Ari, take this shit in the future. It'll be like BF2142 except you know, good.

Or they can just look at the numbers for CoD4 compared to CoD3 and realize maybe WW2 is played out. Bunch of ass-hat loving morons.

[Nathan]

Yeah. The people who have the $$/control over things seem to have no clue what the situation is. And/or the haven't even played the games themselves.

[Fil]

Bah, they should have went back to The French and Indian War. Muskets FTW!!!

[Abraham Smashington]

Hahaha....That would be hilarious.

After every shot, you'd have to reload your gunpowder and buckshot.

haha.

The perks would be awesome: Immune to Smallpox

[nerdious dorkus]

[Nathan]

Sounds like EXTREME! Oregon Trail.

[Fil]

I can see it now, 7 Kill Streak would have Indian archers rain down arrows on the whole map.

[Abraham Smashington]

Watching the death cam onthat would be fantastic.

[nerdious dorkus]
