Treyarch were flamed with a bad followup to Call of Duty 2. Call of Duty 3, of course. However they only had eleven months to do this ! :eek: and the game wasn't BAD. It just wasn't true CoD. And now there back, bigger and better with CoD5. It is still set in WW2, but this time they have over 2 years of development time. With the addition of vehicles still here, many players will not be happy. But personally i'll give it a shot, this game is Battlefield and CoD mixed in one, BoD :p And that's not a badd thing, in my opinion.

The first site with news on Call of Duty: World at war. The next installment of Cll of Duty, set in World War II and being developed by Treyarch.

Developer: Treyarch
Publisher: Activision
Players: 1-2
Online (Co-Op): 2-4
Online Multiplayer: 2-16

Call of Duty: World at War will utilise the Call of Duty 4 engine but the developer has also added various enhancments, such as the ability the burn down buildings and foliage. The game takes place primarily in the pacific, with the US forces fighting Imperial Japan. Frank Kearsy, military advisor and Gulf War Veteran, has made sure that the way the Japanse fight is both tenacious and shocking.

You'll also be fighting as the Russians, who are invading Germany. With the Nazi forces on the back foot they will start fighting even more ferociously in an attempt to defend their strongholds such as in Berlin. There is also a new party system that will allow the leader to issue commands to his troops in single player.

Mutliplayer perks are also back, including some of the favorites from Call of Duty 4, but there will also be new ones that better suit the time period. The game also features new weapons for the series, such as the flamethrower, which according to OXM, can melt the skin off of your enemies and set ablaze grass and wooden buildings. You are also able to shoot throw materials depending on the strength of the material.

Treyarch is promising that this new installment of Call of Duty will be the darkest one yet and are dedicated to making the best game they can. They have had two years of development time, rather than the 11 months they had for Call of Duty 3. And this time they have specific teams working on all the different versions, with the Xbox 360 version acting as the lead.

With thanks to OXM for publishing the originall article and maximumfear.net for making it available to the masses.
 
Awesome news, although, I have grown much more akin to Call of Duty 4 and it's "modern" combat rather than suffer another WWII game, but if it is well made and the online multiplayer is fun, I'll definitely pick it up. Not to mention if that online co-op is any good, that would be great!
 
I have a feeling this is Console only :mad:

That would be dumb if it is console only. The original Call of Duty games and expansions were immensely popular and only available on PC. Only the latest Call of Duty's (Finest Hour, 2, 3, 4) were very popular on the console and so I think they would be eliminating a large audience my not releasing it for PC.

seriously, I loved COD4 so much, that I had to get Mr.Torrence and try out the older ones, I liked them, but they didn't have the same feel that I had from COD4 that I loved so much...

so its going back to WWII Era huh? Well the Pacific War was pretty interesting, so this game shouldn't be bad
