Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

For you Rainbow Six junkies who have played it how do the controls stack up? Are they comparable to Rainbow Six? Are there any major things I'll have to re-learn since I've played Rainbow Six for so-long (in regards to control). This is my major worry about the game is the controls to be quite honest.

can't lean out while in cover, but other than that, pretty much the same.. some neat thing I have seen are players who can shoot over their heads (getting off rounds with the gun above their head)..

Is that a perk?

Last Stand sucks. I hate using it. It almost feels useless, and a waste of a perk. I'd much rather have the conditioning for longer sprinting.

Not overdone at all.

I agree. Last Stand does suck. Like you said, I would rather have something else.

yep... We were just saying it sucks as a perk and would much rather have a different perk.

It seems like a lot of people are using juggernaut online (like they did in the beta). Until I got to level 10 and unlocked the M4, people were dropping me a lot faster than I was dropping them, especially in close combat. But the M4 + the stopping power perk is just deadly.

Cool, I didn't play the beta so still learning the system...just wanted to make sure I understood it was an option vs. something you're stuck with.

I haven't used juggernaut, not sure why.

The maps are amazing as well. i just love the maps.

I want to play the hardcore mode, or whatever it's called. No radars either. Should be fun.

Me too.... I think that will be very cool.

Whomever said this game will fade fast is fooling themselves. I think this could be the game of the year. It makes Halo 3 seem like a waste of time, and is 10x better then Rainbow 6 (also an excellent game in it's heyday). The single and multiplayer are both amazing.

When you guys were talking about the ship training part..when does that happen? I ran the very first training part over and over to try and beat the 15 second record..(maybe impossible), and I think my lowest was 22 seconds, which was decent. Is there an achievment for getting lower then that also? If so, it is an excellent way to get really good at the game before you hop online.

I noticed that in that part you can take the G3 even though he tells you to use the Mp5. The only thing that sucks is you have to throw the flashbang real fast and not bang yourself in the process...which is tough.

I probably wont be doing much private gaming until I level up. I enjoyed it, but it's a lot more fun when you are a 20 or so. You can use better guns and do team battles..etc.

And team deathmatch is incredibly fun anyway. I hate waiting to respawn and grabbing bombs and stuff right now..I just dont know the maps well enough. Another reason this game is so good..you WANT to level and learn the maps before you can branch out into other parts of the game.

Re: Call of Duty 4 - Impressions

It's much more enjoyable online than Halo was, that's for sure.

I've been using Juggernaut and Conditioning. I love how they reward you for kill streaks by allowing you to call in a Air Strike or Helicopter. This game is just so damn addicting.

COD n00b here. How do you Level-Up? Is done thru SP, or must this be done via MP...

What's Halo?

The kill streak rewards were a pretty great idea and they really help control the pace of the game, as if you're close to 5 or 7 kills in a row you're more likely to be cautious and camp for that 5th or 7th kill as opposed to just running around like crazy.
