[QUOTE="ShadowsDemon"][QUOTE="Harisemo"]CoD is so popular that it's cool to hate it just so you could act different from the massesTikeio

Yes, of course it is. :roll:

.

It's just a video game.

Yes, I am aware of that. It doesn't mean we can't bash it. ;)

I've enjoyed every main CoD game (couldn't stand Finest Hour spinoff) since I put 2 into my disc tray. I personally believe the hate on CoD is schadenfreude towards Activision and the big man on campus there. Fans hate to see a publisher make new leaps and bounds in wallet rape with things like $15 DLC (despite logic saying it's a better deal than the typical 3 map/$10 before it) and creative [movie and comic book] license abuse.

Most people don't. All the hate is directed towards everything after CO4.

I've only played from CoD4 and after. 4 was fine but everything after that became a rehash of the same thing. I dislike the series so I don't play he newer releases. Black Ops was the last I played. From then I knew I was done.

Okay so for the past 3-4 years the COD has been the same rehash series with little to no change. I can understand people hating that and not likeing the milkage from the series. However people say they hate the ENTIRE franchise which would mean COD1 and COD2 and COD4 are awful too. Call of Duty 2 for PC and Xbox 360 was a really enjoyable game that was designed well. I don't understand why people hate on COD2 too when that game is fine.

you'd be surprised how many people i met in college and when i joined the army that thought call of duty 4 modern warfare was the first game in the series...i know it sounds utterly stupid...but its true

that being said...i i think call of duty 4 is the best in the series and ive been playing it again recently on pc...ive played the others with my bro whenever im there and they just feel broken...the killstreaks in cod4 were interesting and they freshened up the genre...but the latter games took them waay too far and made them game breaking...

and i think the reason people hated cod2 (and im not the biggest fan of what it did) was cause it was the first game to heavily rely on the regenerating health concept...while it was a tight game and played well...i think the regenerating health concept is broken, while med packs arent exactly fair either (finishing a firefight and coming out with 10hp and gettin spit on and dying isnt ever fun) it completely changed the online experience for more fps games...i grew up playing quake 3 and unreal tourney 99 and counter strike...thoses games took much more skill and gettin hit wasnt nearly as forgiving(duck for 2 seconds and off you go)

but to answer ur question

cod1 was good and so was its expansion

cod2 was good...but it changed online fps games with the regen health and made campaigns a no brainer for these days

cod4 was good...added onto what cod2 did and made one of the best modern online experiences out there

cod waw+....thats where everythign goes down hill and they embelish on the WRONG parts of the game
