COD 2 sucks.

leveller · Post by **leveller** » October 30th, 2005, 10:22 am

have been playing cod 2 sinds yesterday, but besidedes from the new game engine, and a few new maps,
i cant find anything shoking new.

they have prob a lag of inmagination, why in the h*ll did they put in all those maps from old cod in to the new game?
why not make a few more good new maps, instead of using the old maps and give them a new texture.

and what about the one thing that we are all here for, the jumping.

it seems to me they have tried real hard to make it look like you can strafe jump,
i could be wrong, but to me it looks like the "strafe jump" as we know it, doesnt exsists in COD 2.

unlike the old COD, COD 2 doesnt have a random floating point in his game enging,
wich you can use to your advantage to jump higher and further.

enough with the complaining for now,

what do i like

i love the new voices in the quick say menu (CoD2MP)
texture are great 2, think ill use some in a new jump map for the old cod.

what you have said is telling me you expected IW to make it so we could jump and exploit what they take a lot of time to build.

They want to reduce exploits (this DOES include jumping). Strafe jumping was an exploit of the Q3 enginge, this is a new engine with a Q3 core, so it may or may not be present.

IMO, they made the maps again (the 4 cod ones) as they were very popular, they were remade from scratch and now look unbelievable.

No imagination? They have nothing to imagine, WW2 did actually happen and therefore they need not imagine anything.

I have completed the Singleplayer, and it is seriously intense. Even with health regeneration it was hard. At times you are rushed by hundreds of germans on all sides (literally). The game is really as close to war as you'd ever want to get. As for Multiplayer, strafe jumping in possible. There is one jump in dawnville that i have done and posted (under Jumps and Nadejumps (the second part) that you cannot do without strafing. As for the rest, what drofder said.

Yes the maps are still very popular, but i dont think one should use past glory, in a new jacket.

i mean, what if zaitsef would take his old maps and put them all in cod 2, and only give them new textures,
i personaly would find that very boring,
while i know he could build good new maps for cod 2.

and true WW2 did happen, and by my knowlege not only in a few towns or countries.
so with the new cod 2, why not also use new maps.

i think they rebuilt these maps because they were the most popular, and some aren't exactly the same. For instance, dawnville is missing the whole back section it hadbefore, and there are other ways to pass into the graveyard. I enjoy being able to play this new game with new maps, but every once in a while play carentan or brecourt, as they were excellent maps.

i have wached the demo and tried it.

now i am not to juge or kritisize your straffing,

besides from the nade jump,(where you dont need to strafe)
i could do the jumps without strafing.

I'll wait too...3 days to go

. I agree with Drofder why invent the wheel all over again ..right.

The Carentan map has changed also (what i saw on the screens which soviet posted) it has more things in comon with the Carentan episode of Band of Brothers (bushes are gone, they put a fence in and stuff like that...looks pretty good to me.

Lev. You think adding old maps sucks... But does that mean the game sucks?
What do you guys think of the gameplay, new maps and new weapons??
I havent got it yet cuz me and my brother have got less money than the average tramp

maybe you should try getting the legal version, changing rendering to DirectX 7 instead of 9, and finding lowping servers

Noodle · Post by **Noodle** » November 2nd, 2005, 4:33 pm

Pings and fps are fine for me :O Not many good euro servers at the moment, obviously because its not released

From WHAT i have HEARD it sounds kinda crap.. is it true that there is NO RECOIL!?
What is Call of Duty with No recoil maybe this is something they will fix, maybe not i hope they do, and by the time i get my graphics fixed, i might buy the game..
Maps look awesome, and yes i bet the SP missions own.
I just wish all a happy CoD2 gaming

As for now im just gonna sit and wait.. and play good old Call of Duty game of the year edition 2003 with 20 FPS... ahhh the glory..

Aint been playing long, but the MP has done nothing but piss me off so far...those damn trench guns, no skill at all, lots of noobs running around with them, and as soon as one gets near u, its bang ur dead...and spawn killing is just as bad, if not worse, maybe coz most of the maps are smaller now???

I'm liking the SP so far tho, its pretty cool.

COD 2 sucks.
