Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

My only beefs with the game:

• No split-screen online capability. My friends and I were really looking forward to that, since we have so much fun with Halo 3.

• No co-op? Weak, co-op was great in Vegas and Halo.

• Having trouble accepting game invites and such. Still haven't been able to play with any OS'ers, I always get an error message.

• Hardcore mode should be available for ALL ranked gametypes. Right now it is just Team Deathmatch and Search and Destroy, unless there is something I am missing.

Love the game otherwise, though.

"Hey Everyone --

Wanted to give you a heads up for an update in the works for the Xbox 360 version. We're going to be optimizing a lot of things behind the scenes with matchmaking and host selection as well as adding a few new features via the update which I have outlined below. No ETA on when this update will be available for download, just giving a heads up on what's to come in the future in the first potential update:

Additions / New Features:
Added Kill cam to Airstrike bombs and Claymores

Addition of Host Migration so if Host Leaves auto-chooses next best host

Tweaked the following Oldschool Mode settings based on feedback:
- Added Unlimited Sprint
- Increased Magazine Size
- Added Ragdoll Cam

Optimizations / Tweaks:

Identify party by background color (in Lobby)

Optimized server selection for first match for better connections

Improved network performance for 18 player games

Optimized 'Chase Cam' when Spectating

Fixed Playlist error when attempting to join from other games

Handle Corrupt Create A Class data instead of kicking player"

Really like this one. Sucks when your all ready to start and the game ends because the host leaves. Happened to me 3 times last night.

Online when you get killed the kill cam will show you where the person is that killed you is at.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

hey guys, i'm in single player and keep dying because of grenades, how do i pick up a grenade beside me and throw it back at the enemy?

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

Right shoulder button.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

I just run away when a grenade is near me. If it just happens to be a grenade I can pick up I throw it back, but I often try to avoid them altogether. What is the last mission? I'm stormin' the mission control right now and haven't got past the bottom of the steps through the crates.

Make sure not to skip credits, and the briggs rap song was ok.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

Guys, I'm nearing the end of the game I think.............so far, this has to be one of the best and most engrossing games that I have ever played. I think I'm going nuts making that statement, but does anyone else think that this game is and could possibly be in their Top 10?
