Call of Duty 5 (COD5) Rubbish: Smell the Coffee

Some game review and news sites are claiming that Call of Duty 5: World at War has many problems and flaws, they even go out their way to highlight all the bad points.
This may be interesting to some gamers but it’s a joke when they highlight these problems and say that COD5 is not as good as COD4.
Both versions of Call of Duty will have problems and we could highlight tons from COD4, but the fact is COD5 is amazing. We were skeptic at first when we heard the words “WWII” but after having a hands-on it blew us away.
Call of Duty 4 will be hard to beat for sales and online player numbers, COD4 set records and COD5 may set some new ones. Forgetting any minor problems, when playing World at War it feels really good and is everything the dedicated Call of Duty fan will want.
This game will be a best seller and if you doubt it, then go and hire it and find out for yourself.

Sigh, You sound like you know nothing about game reviews, “ITS GOOD SO WAT GO RENT IT BLAH BLAH!…end”…
1. Game is far to expensive for what it is.
2. Maps are no way near as good quality as they could be.
3. Weapons suck balls
4. The only good thing about the COD5 beta was having super dogs to eat peoples balls. But if i was paying £45 for a game just so i can call in a load of dogs i would buy ‘DS Dogz 2′.
1. The game is only too expensive if you rush through single player on recruit, never play co-op, and don’t have the patience to learn the new maps and weapons. But is that the games fault or yours?
2. There are a lot of good maps and a couple of bad ones, just like in CoD4, a good variety to suit everyones tastes.
3. BAR? Thompson? G43? Arisaka? They all rock!!! Molotov’s too…
4. Ahhhh so you played the BETA, (the PRE-RELEASE version) the full game is a lot better on all fronts, you are wasting everybodies time with half-baked opinions.
Got this game and it’s amazing. Ignore the bad reviews. im a huge COD 4 fan and i think WOW is fantastic. One thing that really stands out is the sound in this game. It is brilliant. Graphics are stunning and the muiltiplayer really delivers as with COD 4.
I played the beta and found it to be so anoying, & crud the maps were bitter < the Weapons are so [ low lvl designed ] the shotgun was great in ( COD 4 ) BUT NOW I FEAL THE SHOTGUN HAS LOST it’s key ability to kill
Im a serious gamer!….CoD4 is way, way better than CoD5….
CoD5 stinks!…Weapons, Aiming(sight), Guns, Dogs, Maps, Tanks….all crap!.. and its a waste of money. If your looking to buy CoD5, !!! DONT !!!…
If you havent played CoD4: Modern Warfare, go get that Immediately!!!…Now thats a fun game.
The only thing im pleased with on CoD5, are the Graphics…nothing more. Graphics are ok!…
If only they could come out with a Rainbow6 at CoD game pace, that would be excellent…but its not gonna happen is it….
Well COD5 is not as good as COD4 by far, If you ask me it is a noobs game guns are complete pile of along with dog of war.
Cod4 had helicopter that got on nerves so they go and put in dogs of war.
Game play is utter pants online servers lag kick you for no reason on joining it.
Yet more patch’s to repair shoddy work at was tested in beta versions.
Plus’s ok if your a hacker noob or got a supper computer and like to camp.
I wish i had never got the game and saved my cash for something else that is much better. COD6 will be just as pants as COD5 with as many patches to download and install.
Well done activation for farming out a good game and turning it in to a pile of poo.
Cod 4 is not that good but as least you can play it for fun with a few m8’s i had a server there for a while but now gone back to COD2, best cod games was COD/UO/COD2 the rest have gone down hill fast.
to be honest. i was excited when cod5 came out, but i am extremely dissapointed. With cod4 i was somewhat addicted, not playing for periods of time would get me annoyed and i’d have to go back to it. But with cod5 i just can’t be bothered with it. The guns are disgraceful (the only good one is type 100), the maps are not that bad but lack innovation, The real thing i hate hate hate is the people who play it. With cod4 if you were being shot at someone on your team would kill the attacker 9 times out of 10. But on cod5 i have been being shot at numerous times and people are standing behind me waiting for me to die so they can steal my kill, it takes any excitement out.
I can’t wait till infinity ward get control again and make Call Of Duty:Modern Warfare 2
You must be joking this game sucks so badly.
Where to start….
The spawn points are just as bad - no worse than COD4, in that you start off in the enemy’s sights, so there is soooo much spawn killing going on.
Secondly, as a beginner, it takes many shots of the basic weapons to actually kill someone and if you are facing peiople with advanced weapons, they only need one kill, so part time players have no chance against the unemployed and schoolchildren.
My advice, if you want a good multiplayer game then stay with COD4, or Battlefield 2142.
You lot sat there bitchin make me laugh. It is what it is, just shutup and play. Or dont.
I agree with Simon its no way as good as CoD4 they just copied the game an messed it up even has the same probs eg CoD4 swap guns an u end up with no gun in ya hand same for CoD5 so u had to of copied it. Oh an pls ppl if you do get it stay clear of PS3 version as u all know PS3 online suxs an CoD5 highlights that fact atleast 360 version is playable, an who thought of forward spawning u end up runnin off with the flag then bang 3 ppl spawn next to ya bloody stupid
XBOX 360 review
Single Player = Very very good
Single player co -op = Great fun to play
Multiplayer (heres where it all goes wrong) = All the maps are bugged, you can get underneath them and kill everyone. I didnt think this would be too much of a problem but it seems glitching is the new craze for xbox360 gamers and 7/10 servers have somone under the map. There are tanks now in multi player (I know what your thinking sweet this should be fun… well unfortunatly its not) They are overpowered and spoil the game. You can shoot it with 2 rockets and stick it with a sticky nade and it just keeps going.
I was hoping for this game they would at least give the host of the game the option to customise the use of only certain perks, weapons and tanks in a match but it seems that would be too helpful. Instead you still get people running about in jugernaught, laststand/ martydom. Would have been nice to play a game how you would like to play.
I would certainly recomend this game just for the single player as thats al that activision have spent there time on it seems. If you enjoy the multi player action stick with COD4.
