why do you perfer COD4?

obviously this is directed toward people who "perfer COD4" over other FPS, but cod5 more specifically

since people still play cod4 ALOT, even with the release of COD5 long past, and the release of MW2 looming, i decided "why not ask"

i, personally, just couldnt get into the others, cod5's vehicles ruined it for me, and halo 3... SO MUCH RAGE! and i also just couldnt throw all my leetness in cod4 away 8)

i also have a sneaking suspicion that i'll (and many others) will still be playing MW1 long after MW2's release

I would have to agree with you about the vehicle point made, but i would say it just seems like alot more fun

Two Reasons:

1: Infinity Ward- They drive the series forward and innovate.

2: Treyarch- Does absolutely nothing to make the game better.

When I buy a game from Activision, I look to see which devloper they have.

Treyarch is the metaphorical noob in the Activision Squad. Continually dropping a nade on there own team and what not.

Not gonna lie, I LOL'd at this...

Because COD4 has very addicting online that takes a while to reach level 55 and prestige 10 times and people love trying to reach that goal.

I prefer IW as well but to say Treyarch does nothing to make the game better is ridiculous. If anything, IW does nothing to improve on CoD4 while Trey did a TON to make WaW better. 4 player co-op, something CoD4 doesn't do at all and even MW2 only has 2 player co-op. Nazi Zombies gamemode. Even if IW adds some type of terrorist zombies modeor something to MW2, it was still Trey that added it to the CoD playlist. 3, 3, mappacks for WaW with each pack having 3 multiplayer maps and adding another nazi zombies map just for fun. CoD4 was out for a year before WaW launched and it still only has 1 mappack.

Actually fixing problems. Noobtubes and team killing was out of control in both games. Only WaW has been fixed. Team killers get penalized in WaW by getting kicked out. CoD4 still does nothing to stop or even punish them. Noobtubes now have a delay so people can't start the match launching them across the boards, and bettieshave been fixed so they don't go off behind walls. IW basically abandoned CoD4 problems.

IW has done a great job with what they started in the CoD franchise. But people need to stop acting like Treyarch does nothing. They pick on Trey because they're tired of WWII shooters, not for any other reason. Because anyone that can't see that Trey improved the CopD series with WaW is just plain dumb. Because i guarantee that when MW2 launches, IW will use and implement many of Treyarchs additions from WaW to MW2. And then of course everyone will say how great IW is again.

i think cod WAW is much better than Cod4. Single player is much more friendly.more in your face close combat. 4 player co-op much better multiplayer with its addition of Nazi zombies and maps. Pretty historically accurate.Cod4 just lacked any sort of midranged to close range combat. seemed like camp, hide fine aim, camp, repeat forfive minutes to get helicopter.

I just prefer the modern guns over the stuff from ww2. The only thing I like about waw was zombie mode but even that gets old fast.

I think that CoD4 and CoD WaW are both very good. CoD4 just looks better and have better MP. CoD WaW has both co-op and zombies, wich is a huge advantage. But I prefer both.

You sir are misinformed. The reason Call of Duty never had co-op until now is because call of duty is not a co-op game. There is a reason CoD4 has only one map pack, thats because thats all they needed. WaW needs three maps packs to keep it interesting. Map packs aren't free btw they general are 10 dollars each so technically WaW would cost you 90 bucks while MW would have cost 70 (or 60 in the GOTY).

The other major issue with WaW was the just copy and pasted virtual everything. They used the Modern Warfare engine and used the same old WWII story that we have all played/learned about 3000 times now. I know, I know they made flame throw, so basically all the added a gun that shot a column of fire.

Oh, yeah and btw Nazi Zombie is probably the dumbest idea ever, true Horde-ish game types can be addicting, but if they had any creativity on there team they would have given 4-5 players a small plot of land, with decent cover and just threw wave after wave of normal Nazi's after you. They could have had tanks, soliders and everything in between. but nope they stuck with Zombies

CoD4 is simply amazing..i put 610 hours in that game.

I like the modern guns and setting. I prefer it over Halo because I've never been a big Halo person. COD4 is really the only FPS other than Half-Life 2 that I've sunk a lot of time into. I hated W@W when I played it. It felt like a rip off of COD4 and a cash in and I just couldn't play it because of that. I just felt dirty while playing it.

I think both are fun, but COD4 was just more original.

I don't agree. If CoD is not a co-op game, then why is Infinty Ward making Modern Warfare 2 co-op? CoD4 only needed 1 mappack? Really, since when is having less of something that's supposedly soawesome a good thing? Granted you got more maps out of the box with CoD4. But you'd think they'd at least support something so popular (CoD4) more thanWaW.You think WaW was a cut and paste job? What do you think MW2 will be? And how in the world can you think a gamemode that uses teamwork, options to buy better weapons, open up new areas to explore an cover, on really well designed maps, is boring compared to your, "stand in one spot and shoot everything that comes at you" idea? THAT sounds boring.

i-rock-socks

"leetness" made me lol :P

But yeah.. CoD 4 is better because CoD 5 is poo... :/

Another thing, alot more older people play CoD 4, which is good, although theres got to be a reason they play...

I PREFER CoD4 because I will never support Activision's exploitation of the series by purchasing a Treyarch-made game. The multiplayer is also the most fun I have had on a console FPS.

PREFER Spindoc_SEI

Because COD4 has very addicting online that takes a while to reach level 55 and prestige 10 times and people love trying to reach that goal.

I like Battlefield More than CoD...

I prefer CoD 4 because it isn't a WWII game

I like COD4 better because it has modern guns. Plus, I don't think Treyarch tried too hard with WaW, it's identical to COD4. But I will say that COD3 (developed by Treyarch) is 1000x better than COD2.mohfrontline

I really hate the guns in waw. They are so terribly unbalanced. THe MP40, BAR and STG44 are so much better than the rest of the guns. Plus the bouncey betties are an automatic extra 6 kills if you place them in the right places. COD4s maps are better.

You cant call someone misinformed when your one and only source happens to be your own opinion.

And I pretty much disagree with you on everything you say, first off i dont care what game it is without a fluent release of dlc it gets old.

Secondly you say that waw cost 90 while mw cost 70 but you don't acknowledge the fact that you get more with cod waw for the extra 30 dollars. Waw has way more multiplayer maps and nazi zombie maps, it also has 4 person co op.

Third (yes waw is very similar to cod 4) but every game since the first one has been similar.

And fourth you cant call something dumb that is an opinon and an opinion is useless in an arguement/debate. (your still wrong on that too tho nazi zombies owns.)

I play COD4 now because play halo 3 for 2 years with friends we got bored and moved to COD games, COD4 is a lot more fun, but the one thing I really like in COD5 is the last stand perk that lets you revive other team mates on last stand.

Simply best put:

Infinity Ward drives the series forward. Look at the huge jumps in mechanics from Call of Duty 3 (Which I actually think is by far the worst in series). IW was smart to invest there time into ACTUALLY making the game work better as well being more fun.

Treyach pretty much just mends the field. Nazi Zombies is an extremely generic version of a horde mode. Though it is fun, replay value quickly dimishes. GoW 2 has a far more robust horde mode in comparision. Though Treyach does add a thing here or there, you are basically looking at a carbon copy of a CoD4.

Most noticably for me, a person who has played the Call of Duty series since its inception in PC is how much Treyarch has dumbed down the WWII era weapon both in function and through over the top perks. Is it just me or what, but does an MP40 really have the same precision and punch as a H-K MP5.

Call of Duty 4 had a great tactical element to it with the great balance in weapons. The Sub machine guns work like REAL submachine guns... the LMG's work like REAL LMG's! The Schnoz Berrys actually taste like Schnoz Berrys (for real).

WaW feels like a SPAM fiesta. Get your PPSH on and pull |RT|. Someones going to get a hurtin real bad... somewhere. That culminated with questionable "Safe" Spawning... what a nightmare.

I do own both games. I do like them both, but my preferance is with CoD4. I actually feel like I'm doing something working with a weapon the way it should work.

If you want to argue about Coop mode, let MF2 speak for it's self. IW is actually investing time into this mode. How much better do you think it is going to be?

I'm going to pass the talking stick on to the next person here....

and by the way Call of Duty United Offensive is the best in series.

I don't buy games for the multiplayer. Because I can honestly say I don't care about it. But The reason I

like Modern Warfare better is because it is different to the other call of duty games, and more up to date

with todays war. I got sick and tired of the same old World War stuff but this game made my day. :D

Reason over CoD 5: First off, I was sick of world war 2, it just got old. Treyarch is another one of Activision's milking drones. After CoD 2 they couldn't wait for IW to make modern warfare because they need a new game every year apparently so they have treyarch make CoD 3, which is the worst in the series. Then instead of waiting for modern warfare 2 they get WaW. It is an exact copy of CoD 4. Nazi zombies gets extremely boring after a while. CoD 4 also has more adults on so less stupid people. In WaW, there are so many little kids that nobody can play fair and has to glitch their way through everything, inNazi Zombies ANDin multiplayer.

Reason over Halo 3: I don't have to unload a whole clip to kill somebody and when I shoot a person in the head they die. No 5 year olds screaming all the time. Combat is not the same formula over and over again: unload a clip while jumping, run up and see who melees who first.

I spent so much time in that game....

^ you are aware that there is no Co-op campeign right? The only Co-op is about 5 very short co-op two player missions... ^

Hardly Co-op

I like Battlefield More than CoD...
