There have been some threads on whether COD5 is worth it or not. Gamepro magazine ran a feature on it for this month. There was a lot of good info. All the COD4 perks are in the game plus they added a whole lot more that look extremely fun. They also hint at the type of gameplay to expect. Im pretty pumped for it. Folks have asked, so here are the perks and kill streaks listed...enjoy!! PERKS: - Bayonet - a much longer reach than the hand-held knife. - M2 Flamethrower - far-reaching stream that torches enemies and vegetation. - Pyromaniac - Like COD4 Sonic Boom, boosts damage for your fire attacks like Molotov Cocktails and Flamethrower - Satchel Charge - replacement for C4. Can also damage tanks if you get one under the treads. - Bouncing Betty - replacement for claymore. Shoots in the air and shreds enemies with shrapnel. - Bazooka - as the name suggests, a bazooka. Destroy tanks and enemy positions. - Flak Jacket - allows you to survive close range grenade attacks like from Martyrdom - Shades - nullify blinding effects of flares which are COD5 version of flashbangs - Gas Mask - resists the effects of the Tabun nerve gas grenade (COD5 grenade type) - Second Chance - improved version of COD4 Last Stand. Works the same as Last Stand with one addition. If you are hit and drop to the ground with your pistol out, another teammate equipped with Second Chance can revive you. - Fire Proof - protection from fire weapons like Molotov Cocktails and Flamethrowers - Dexterity - improved version of COD4 Slight of Hand. Grants faster reloads as well as faster prep time on Molotov Cocktails and Bouncing Betties. - Greased Bearings - a vehicle perk allowing you to rotate your tank main cannon faster and switch targets faster. - Ordinance Training - vehicle perk that boost the firing rate of the tank main cannon. - Water Cooler - a vehicle perk that allows you to fire the tank's secondary weapon (machine gun) for longer periods before overheating. - Lead Foot - vehicle perk that boosts the top speed of the tank which appears to be pretty slow. KILL STREAKS: - 3 Kill streak - deploy a recon plane to temporarily show enemies on radar. - 5 kill streak - call in an artillery strike - 7 kill streak - release several attack dogs that will chase down and kill enemy team members. Dogs seek out hiding enemies, so you can follow them to surprise your enemies. MODS AND SUCH: I think these are going to be attachable items/mods to your weapons used like the current weapon mods (scopes, front grips, etc.) Unknown if these will take up a perk spot like the front grip did in COD4. - Sawed off Barrel & Stock - mod for the shotgun which gives it much shorter range and a wider spread for room clearing. - Sights and Scopes - aperture, telescopic, and sniper scopes for your rifles and SMGs. - Bipod - same as always, stability when proned. - Magazine Upgrades - add a dual magazine or drum magazine for more shots. - Silencers and Flash Hiders - silencer to suppress noise, flash hider reduces visible flash muzzle. - CO-OP mode - entire single player experience for up to 4 players online or 2 players offline on split screen. Challenge ramps up as more players join the game. - New Game types - in addition to the COD4 gametypes, add Capture the Flag and War mode. War mode should be similar to the War mode in COD3. - Enhanced Party system - better party management allows players to jump from game to game together. "Overall, the play style of Word at War's multiplayer feels like COD4 with more exotic weapons and deeper gameplay options. The look is right and the feel is pure Call of Duty. In other words, COD4 vets wont be disappointed in the slightest...World at War is shaping up to be the most intense ride of the year...if this is the final foray into WW2 for the Call of Duty Series, they've been saving the best for last." - Gamepro Magazine.
I always thought the Last Stand perk was completely stupid. Especially if you sniped someone in the head with a Barrett M107 of all weapons. Head shot should be auto kill.

If I recall correctly, I once got headshotted by a sniper and I didn't last stand. Maybe I was wrong but yeah...
True.If you got headshotted or Knifed or Blew up you DID NOT go into last stand.I really am sad that perks are making there return.Some of them were ok in COD but I always thought that it was stupid that people needed a perk to make their gun stronger,or to give them more health.Like why Can't I bring in a Claymore,and c4?That is dumb right there.

I think you are right man, I remember a fatal shot was always a fatal shot with no chance for Last Stand.
I think they made Second Chance because Martyrdom usage dominated over Last Stand in COD4. There is also supposed to be a squad system in the game like in Battlefield. If your squad rolls with Second Chance, you have a shot to revive each other and better assault targets. I think the attack dog kill streak is going to be hilarious. Can you imagine getting a 7-kill streak before you assault a headquarters? Call in the attack dogs and they will go root out the people hiding while you clean up LOL
When I had the game, my shots were perfect directly to the head. Quite a few of them that had Last Stand, went into Last Stand mode blindly shooting their pistol in the air because they never knew where the shot came from. Not only did I always see my shots, but it was always 1 shot that brought them down. Shooting anywhere else doesn't bring them down in 1 shot in COD4.
Great post TC!! :D Yeah COD:WaW is gonna be amazing, i can't believe I almost wasn't gonna want this game cause all the WWII/Treyarch hate here on the boards.. Goes to show that you always should check things out for yourself. I am getting more and more hyped for this game than any other!! :D

Maybe that was before the patch, cause before the patch some head shots were not fatal and thats BS for sure, actually the main reason I hated sniping. Head shot kills should negate last stand no doubt.

Thanks, Dude! I was a bit skeptical about the game myself. I really liked COD3 a lot more than most, but after COD4, I wasnt sure what to expect from another WW2 game. The more I have read about it, the more I look forward to it. My impression is it will have all the great aspects of COD4, but with a more overall and diverse warfare experience.

Yeah, I sold my copy when GTA4 came out. So any patches after that are unknown to me

Yes I did. I know I did.
Yeah before the patch you could headshot (with a sniper rifle) someone and that would be enough damage to kill them, so it could be possible that you gave them enough damage to put them on last stand and not kill them. Which is f'ed up for sure.
I added a couple of more things I read to the MODS and SUCH section of the first post. I included the overall impression from the Gamepro staff.-ArchAngeL-777-
Nice! The Gamepro impression is a great addition to the topic, as is the co-op and party info! :D I see A LOT of premature dismissers of COD:WaW are gonna be eating their words when this game is out:P

Hopefully you read my additions before I screwed up the formatting of the original post. I tried to get fancy with the listing and wound up running them all together. Fixed it as quick as I could before anyone got too confused :D

Thanks for the compliments! I figured the info would come in handy. I couldnt believe it myself when I read about attack dogs, but they are there. I wonder how much damage they take. If someone sicks them on me, I might try to knife them all just to see if its possible LOL.
You better be able to crack their damn necks like in COD4,or atleast shoot them.If they make them overpowered killing machines then it will not be fun.

a headshot would be instant kill, just if you shoot him in a limb with a sniper rifle he will go to last stand. sniper rifle never take more than one shot in the head, only when the game is glitchy.
I'm still playing CoD4. With most of the same perks and the step back to WW2 I think I'm going to skip this one. Especially with games like Socom, R2, LittleBigPlanet I see no reason to pick this up and this is comming from a HUGE fan of CoD4.
All the perks are the same for the most part. There are a few new ones but I really think the step backwards to WW2 just kills this game.

It's also stupid that you can fire a 50 cal. sniper rifle in anything but a prone position.
