Call of Duty 5 Details - Co-op Support
[Jun 09, 2008, 09:35 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments

Computer and Video Games has details from OXM on the next Call of Duty game, which will not be called Call of Duty 5, but rather Call of Duty: World at War, a return to the World War II setting in the works at Treyarch Studios. Word is the game will center around the Pacific theatre, though Russia's advance on Berlin will also be depicted. There's also word that the military shooter sequel's use of the engine from CoD4 creates a grittier and scarier environment than previous CoD games, and a further blurb on Videogaming247 mentions target platforms as PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii (the version for the latter platform is being developed separately), and the hopeful news from both articles is the game will include cooperative multiplayer support. No release date is projected at this point. Thanks Voodoo Extreme.

Hating on WW2 games is a great way to miss out on some really excellent games.

It's not hating on them but, like movies, there's only so many times you can do the same stuff before people get bored. What about the Korean War? Or the Gulf War (obviously largely air based but still had ground action)? Or Afghanistan? Or how about a non-western war... the Iran/Iraq conflict in the 80s? It's like every disaster movie featuring a pregnant woman or a divorced couple trying to get to their kids but falling back in love - it gets pretty tedious. I think the only reason they go for WWII is because they can throw in some dodgy British/Russian accents and pretend the game isn't just about the US.

Crysis went for Korea but fucked it up with aliens and other stupid shit. At least Call Of Duty hasn't introduced aliens or mutants yet.
