    New stuff for COD4

    dunno if this has already been posted but here some interesting into

    It seems that more spots on our Friends list are devoted to people playing Call of Duty 4 than anything else, lately. Despite the e-success, the team at Infinity Ward is still tweaking the experience, evidenced by a bevy of changes that will be coming to the online portion of the game sometime this month.

    The changes are split between two groups: playlist and patch changes. The playlist changes are numerous, and really help to balance and perfect the online experience. Maps are being added to rotations, new playlist variations are being introduced, and some rules are being changed. As for the patch, there's an awful lot of network optimization, the addition of host migration (your party doesn't get booted if the host takes off) and, perhaps most importantly of all, Kill Cam view has been added to everything: claymores, RPGs, grenades, even fracking Air Strike Bombs ("follows bomb from plane to target" ... oh yes).

    The only thing we don't like about this updates? There's no ETA outside of the "month of December." Hit that 'Read' link for the full breakdown and start counting down the days.

      Ya, 360 gets love first. Due to, they can't mod CoD4. Plus, they get what IW gives them. PC gets the last end of the cake, because we can mod ours.

      Just wait, PC will have its cake

        And I'll eat that cake with a big grin on my face.

                Also realize that game play and weapon tweaks will be different between console and PC probably. So something that needs tweaking on the Xbox, might not on PC and vice versa.

                If Xbox gets a new map, I'd expect we'll see it for PC soon after.

                  That would be sick if we got those maps.

                          New maps would be awesome, especially those as some look to be bigger than others.

                            It does seem as if IW might just support this game better than those "other" guys.............(hhhmmmmmm.......who's that?).....anyway, its a good thing we could get some new maps and maybe a few guns, er,weapons. I still say its a real tribute to IW that there are not many, if at all, complaints about the game itself, or the MP stuff. They seem to have supplied a real MP winner. IMHO...............:)

                            "All Y'all did a fine job on this here game."
