Call of Duty: World At War (AKA COD5)

Info about this has been released in this months Xbox 360 Magazine. Not got the full details, because I have no intention of actually paying for a copy, but here's the highlights.
  • Set in the Pacific and Eastern Fronts
  • Features Single Player, Two Player Co-op, Four Player Co-op and Multiplayer mode
  • COD4 Engine
  • Developed by Treyarch (COD2, COD3, Quantum of Solace)
  • New AI programmed to simulate the Japanese style of warfare rather then the 'duck and cover' style of the Germans in the other COD games
  • Multiplayer similar to COD4, with perks etc

No due date yet, but it may ship on the Xbox before other formats.

Re: Call of Duty: World At War (AKA COD5)

Yep, I was hoping for more modern warfare stuff, maybe some sort of WWIII type action. Oh well, the engine is solid so as long as they don't bugger about with it too much it'll no doubt be a good game.

Sounds like it might be more along the lines of Call of Duty:Finest Hour etc. with COD5 appearing at a later date.

Re: Call of Duty: World At War (AKA COD5)

At least it's not fighting the Germans again. Something post WWII would have been prefered, but may still have a look at this 1

COD6: Russia Vs America Vs EuroSuperstate Vs China Vs Africa Vs United Middle East States
*crosses fingers*

Re: Call of Duty: World At War (AKA COD5)

Thankfully it's the last COD that'll be made by anyone other than Infinity Ward - this will most likely be as shite as Finest Hour and we'll have to wait until COD6 for a good update.

The trailer for this is going to be 'premiered' (stupid term for a trailer, but it's what the PR calls it) on Xbox Live on Saturday, and will presumably be ripped to GameTrailers within minutes.

Re: Call of Duty: World At War (AKA COD5)


One trailer. Looks pretty good, but then I really like WWII shooters.

CVG is also reporting a rumour that COD6 is going to be a sci-fi shooter.
