| I got it, and it's alright. Definitely not worth anywhere near $50.
A few big and small problems so far, aside from it of course being a watered down derivative of everything that made the previous Infinity Ward only COD games better. There are a few cool things also, like finally being able to shoot the JAPS!!!!!!! In the very first mission a map trigger bugged out and wouldn't go, some asshole wants me to stab a gas barrel on the back of a truck, so I hit enter to do that and it creates a hole and I can imagine it's going to roll the truck down the hill and smash through a gate and explode. Instead nothing happened, because the guy who was supposed to drive the truck was either dead or simply evaporated out of the game, but the game didn't do anything. I walked down to the gate and killed every SLANT EYED MOTHERFUCKER there, emptying the base. Then I went back up to the top and sprayed gunfire at my teammates, turning while I fired so that it would kill them, AND THERE WAS NO PENALTY. I killed literally 50 teammates as they all gathered around the back of the truck standing there like idiots, sprayed into their backs or picked them off one by one. The commanding officer of course just had the bullets vanish into him. The objective pointer stupidly pointed just PAST the gate and upwards a little bit which isn't a place you can get to even when the gate opens. I had to restart the entire mission (all 10 minutes of it). The next mission was a beach landing, where OF COURSE friendly planes get shot down in scripted sequences and blow up nearby landing craft. DOUBLE OF COURSE, you only exit the landing craft when it explodes and throws you into the water and you see from underwater as some corpses float. The only thing missing is the bullets shooting down into the water in front of you. That's a huge sign of generic bloo blee blah. I don't think a single Call of Duty game had that except possibly COD3 by Treyarch again. This is made up for a little bit later in the mission where you call in a rocket strike on the jungle in front of you just off the beach head, and when you blow up a ton of shit there, you start charging forward and in the big empty blown out wasteland area where all the trees are blown off, there are smoking shell shocked japs just standing there wandering like zombies until you shoot them. A couple things about the very beginning. The loading movie screen is the most retarded overdone shit I've ever seen in a war game where it's like all zooming pictures and stock footage and text that zooms, zooms into a zoom and then zooms the zoom again when it zooms because it's just whipping around and more text is slapping ONTO the text that zooms in or slaps on or fades in over the text or changes it, it's just fucking laughably dumb. Then you get to the actual in game engine where you're a prisoner in a JAP camp by of course the most evil force the world has ever known, WW2 era Japan, and there's another guy who's like DON'T TELL THEM SHIT and the evil guy puts a cigarette out on his face and then has a dude slash his throat. Just before they go to do the same to you the guys sneak in and kill the murdering japs. The game has online coop built in for the zombie map (which lets you buy weapons using money strangely enough) and the entire single player campaign, which I always thought they could've done with CO4, and hopefully they'll do with CODMC2. Jso is thinking of getting the game so we can really play it the real way, coopily. All of the dialog is almost totally worthless. There's FUCKIN swearing, but there's a lot of I WANT THIS SIMPLE AND CLEAN AND IF DONE RIGHT CAN BE VERY EFFECTIVE IN GETTING SOME BUSHHHHHHHH I mean just really generic shit. In COD4 it was some stuff like that but it was straightforward statements of missions and objectives. In this it's just useless dialog that doesn't mean anything and pertains to nothing. |
