OMG what happened the rest of my post???. Yeah, it basically said the same thing, I don't want them to change either.
Heres the link COD4 Â
I love WW2 games but I think it's time for a change for CoD. I don't really want a modern combat but maybe a Vietnam setting or WW1.
Man, I haven't heard of this, I hope they don't go away from World War II...DouglasBuffone
it's going to be a modern day middle eastern setting.Â
I doubt we'll see any gameplay in the trailer. It'll most likely be one of those crappy CG trailers they always put on.
I'm more than ready for modern combat.
A WWI game would not be like that at all. It'd more like sitting in a trench for a week shooting over the top every so often. If you weren't one of the many that died going over the top into deadman's land you slowly died in the trenchs from one of the many diseases that ran rampant in there. Or you died from chemical weapons.
 I mean, explain to me how a WWI game would be fun...

 Hmm.....WWI....Yeah, that would be awesome! I'd be happy if even if they kept it WWII but there just aren't enough WWI games, or should I say none that I can think of.

Same, i quit Battlefield when 2 came out. Call of Duty and Battlefield are only meant for WW2 as far as I'm concerned.
yeh it would be fun having your gun jam after every shot or sometimes not even fire...Nayab
Last time I checked CoD wasnt a realism game. All guns jam including modern ones.KillerofNoobs
Yeah, but not after every shot like he said. The truth is, WWI would never make a good, let alone decent game. The subject matter simply couldn't support the gameplay we expect these days. Â
i, too, would rather see them stick with an older theme (the korean war never gets any games, (dogfights between f-86 sabres and old migs, challenging and 'pretty' terrain)...aint it time for maybe a highly polished cinematic dark Vietnam single player game(m16's jamming, option to shoot anybody with consequences,'interaction' w/ civilians,jeeps and land armor getting stuck and breaking down, disease, nasty brothels and drug dens, im serious...).....
Â
Its not the setting really though that can make a great game or fps, specifically in this generation of gaming, its new ideas and more fleshed out environments,interactions, and cliche but most important-"feel"....the fps has to take you to a level of immersion and control unheard of 5 years ago...
Â
i show my dad (50 years old) certain things from various games i play and he goes holy poo..with the upcoming dx10 environment and capabilites i want something to happen that hasnt happened for awhile when i boot up a fps.. i wanna go holy poo......and you know what? for all the fancy lighting, shading and such...its gonna be a game with a completely different or evolved way of playing the game thats gonna make people want to play and support the game...it happened when half-life, half-life 2, oblivion, etc. came out....a new twist or more fleshed out interaction that suck you in to the world....

another thing worth noting is that one of the biggest things that makes COD so awesome are those crazy war moments. im talking about the stalingrad moments, or the point du hoc moments where this huge epic battle rages and all you can see is chaos all around you. Now when you think of modern combat, its small units...small skirmishes. there arent hundreds of guys running around and complete chaos its more tactical and slower paced for the most part. so these epic moments wont seem to be as epic if you ask me.
if you ask me, if anyone, the Brothers in arms games should go modern combat (id still rather them be WW2) because at least those games work with small scale skirmishes between a couple squads. and the command system would be cool in a modern setting. but at the end of the day we all know COD will pull through and make an awesome game...so its all good.

This is why I didn't want CoD4 to go this way. I enjoyed the last CoD games because of the big moments like Hill 400, Pointe Du Hoc, Stalingrad and such. In modern combat you don't rush in and hope you're still alive in the end, you just hide behind crap and shoot when shot at. This is safer in real life but boring in fps games. I think this game will probally turn out great but I would like to see a Call of Duty version of Vietnam, Battlefield sucked it up imo.
Nooooo, CoD should stay in WWII imo. Even though there are lots of WWII shooters, there are equally, or more modern shooters. I think CoD should stay at what it does best and expand on WWII.
Even though, I'm certain this will be an awsome game.
Look at this, it will seem familiar......... 8)

Now LOOK AT THE RANK on the above photo.

I Can Say clearly this game will take place on the middle east with Russian weapons and Middle Eastern soldiers, The Red Flag with The yellow Star IS NOT Chinese OR Russian , the 2 Swords coming up is DEFINATEly Arab country, its called Mushir Rank.
If you go to wikipedia.org you can put in Mushir and the Egypts and Saudis Rank have same Design.
Â
Im pointing this out cuz some ppl have told me its the Russian flag when it CLEARLY isnt.
Now to wwait for the game and Have some fun, to bad its till next year.... probably...
