There has been word of the next Call of Duty being placed in Vietnam. Is this a good idea? I think it's a good change, and noone's made a good Vietnam game yet.

It's pretty old now anyway... You're right that someone should make a new game in this setting.

Treyarch is considering a Vietnam setting for Call of Duty 7. We'll just have to wait and see if that's what they choose.

The problem with the Vietnam Conflict as a center for a game is that the combat would not really be game-friendly. Most of the combat that took place was either unopposed bombing runs (that'd be fun, fly a plane, drop some napalm, turn around with no enemy return fire), or ambushes that instantly killed most, if not all of the soldiers involved. There really isn't room to maneuver or strategise...one of the reasons we lost the conflict, and one of the reasons it wouldn't really make a good game.

I think it would be awesome, especially if they let you use a door mounted mini-gun in a Huey.8)

I disagree with the setting not being game freindly. There are cities, streets, beaches and buildings in Vietnam just like any other country. The way america lost the war should have nothing to do with game setting.

I sense an awesome mini-game coming on :P. Hell, they could even release it with project Natal and you could literally bite the top off a pack of gun powder and load your musket manually :P.

It would be CoD 6 not 7. Remember, Modern Warfare is now it's own series.

Same, but Korea is very simlar to WW2, most of the same weapons. In vietnam, you get the old and the new. For example, the m1 was used in Nam, and so was teh AK and m16. Best of both worlds.

Ah, but the terrain was quite different. Also, I think since most of the weapons were from WW2, it would be easy for Treyarch to do as like an easing out of WW2 not just instantly jumping from WW2 to Vietnam.

technically we never really lost. it was more like we got really pissed and finally decided to leave and let veitnam settle it. But i think it would be a great setting. The ambushes and napalm you talked of could be just like the airstrikes and choppers in modern warfare. the more kills without dying and you get to use them. The setting would also be much more brutal. imagine being able to set traps in the jungle for the enemy just like laying a claymore. the enemy would of course have to be able to see it and disarm it or something of the sort though. i think its a very good idea.

That idea might work, but what he is saying is that the war was more of a run and gun, he wasn't really talking about all of that. Esentially he was saying that Vietnam was a quick paced war and unless they pushed the facts around a bit. It'd consist of you running in to a fortification and shooting at as many people as you can before running back.

It'd not be that exciting.

Knowing Treyarch though, they'll find a way to screw it up. I haven't enjoyed either CoD 3 or 5. Both created by them. Hopefully this time they work a bit harder on it and try to be a bit more... well, good at recreating these battles.

It sounds interesting, but it seems doubtful that they would make a game about a war that we didn't win.

oh alright. sorry about that. i took what he was saying the wrong way. but if they managed to avoid making it a run n gun game i think the setting and the whole brutality and everything would be freaking epic. it would definately be much different from the other CODs and probably pretty fun yeah i definately agree there. i would leave this one to Infinity Ward lol

Actually, it is Call of Duty 5. Activision made that clear.
