Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Vs. Call Of Duty World At War

Re: Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Vs. Call Of Duty World At War

Compare the recoils of the assault rifles in MW1 and 2, there is a big difference.

Yeah the guns are much easier to use in every class in MW2. You can pretty much use any gun like its an AR. I can pick people off with RPD from half a level away with my eyes closed. Don't even get me started on how easy the UMP is to use.

Just look at my arena blogs for my review of CoD MW2 and you'll get your answer....

You must be God then, I would hate to play you with your eyes actually open you would probably warp through my tv and shoot me.

surely you jest? MW2 no contest. I couldn't stand WAW

Re: Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Vs. Call Of Duty World At War

The more I play MW2 the more I am inclined to vote for WaW. Nothing against MW2 but I just don't have the desire to have epic online sessions with it like I did with WaW.

One thing I loved about WAW is it was much quieter and more slow paced then MW1 and MW2.

I loved using the bolt action rifles also.

I love the WW2 era guns and setting. I also loved the online stat tracking system that Treyarch used. I really wish IW would have done something similar.

This is the perfect thread to tell my CoD Gamestop story...

So I walk into Gamestop last month looking to buy World at War. Please keep in mind I am a casual CoD gamer, and even though I have played all of the CoD games besides MW2, I only play the campaign and never ever have played 1 minute of multiplayer (and never will.. but that's another story) Any way...

So I pick WaW off of the used games wall where it was priced at 12 bucks, Score! Walk up to the counter, and the first thing the sales dude says to me is... "You this game F**** sucks right?". Taken back by his comment, I said "Well it's only 12 bucks, I happen to be a big WW2 history buff, and I never play online so I think I'll love it." He looked at me like I had 8 heads and said... "Wait... people actually play CoD for the campaign?". I said "Yes." and asked him kindly to just ring me up.

I'm pretty sure that guy went home that night and told all his MW2 clan members about the weird dude who plays CoD for it's campaign mode, never plays online, and actually prefers shooting nazis with bolt action rifles, as opposed to wasting terrorists with super high tech inane-o machine guns from hell.

In a nut shell... I prefer WaW.

Being in customer service since 1983, stories like this always affect me like nails on the chalkboards. I'll spare you all a lengthy rant about the do's and don'ts of customer service/sales however.

So, aside from your experience with He-Who-Should-Be-Fired at Gamestop, how do you like W@W?

Haha, yeah I've worked customer service jobs before and I would not ever imagine saying something like that to a customer, no matter how laid back or comfortable the environment was.

That being said, I really enjoyed W@W. I don't get much time to play games during the week, so this one took me about a week and a half to beat and was a lot of fun. I liked jumping back and forth from Pacific battles to the European ones, and I thought a lot of the scripted sequences were a lot of fun. For 12 bucks, I thought it was fantastic! If I would have paid $60, I would have been a little disappointed. Mainly due to the fact the campaign mode is so short, and I don't play online.

It would be interesting to see how this poll would look if it was started today. MW2 was such a big let down in its online multiplayer. The poorly designed killstreaks, perks, care packages, nukes, camping, maps, and glitching just ruined this experience. The developers dumbed the game down too much. Thats why the game is liked by the casuals and kids so much.

In world at war the game had a better design for killstreaks. The dogs would seek out campers. It was brilliant. The game relied more on gun play then it becoming an air show. The nazi zombies and co op campaign modes complimented the game so well. It was like having two games in one with the nazi zombies mode. I can see why world at war is the 3rd most played game on xbox live currently with a lot of people going back to it after being dissaponted in with MW2

Great points. I worry when a online game becomes very, very popular. I am worried about Bad Company 2 as well. The demo was downloaded more than any other demo in history. I hope it isn't ruined by the glitchers and kids.

Gawd...hopefully not. There's no killstreak system in place, if you want air you have to be able to fly it or have a good pilot in your group, no akimbo, no care package, knifing is (to me) considerably tougher in BF2, etc. Not to say that map glitches won't be found, but I'm hopeful there will be much less exploits and required cleanup by DICE than MW2 has.

I guess my only concerns are people getting really proficient with vehicle use and dominating, and that the game is extremely sniper friendly due to the large maps, good cover and backwards kill cams.

You basically said everything that I didn't. This is why I hated MW2 and loved WAW.
