Re: World at War Multiplayer Revealed

Just to be accurate, ...

Since we are being accurate, this is the actual quote from fourzerotwo:

"It's true. No CTF at launch. Compared to the other gametypes it's something we knew we could make better and refuse to put it in the game until it's up to standard with all the other gametypes. Don't worry though, we're going to be doing a lot of updates / tweaks / changes to MP based on community feedback and fully plan to add CTF if we get it to that point. "

FULLY PLAN TO ADD CTF! Whoops, its gone now.

I know this is a reliable quote, because you posted it Whiskey on November 11th, 2007:

Now of course, what makes it all hard to swallow is "FULLY PLAN" and "if". Always gotta leave a loophole.

Thanks for the clarification Whiskey. You should take fourzerotwo's place. You'd be more accurate for sure.

Re: World at War Multiplayer Revealed

Thanks for listing the exact quote, because what I paraphrased above is very close to what 402 wrote.

You can choose to view "plan" and "if" as loopholes, or you can view it as him trying to get information out to the community based on his understanding of the situation at the moment. Things change a lot (and often quickly) in the gaming world, and something that is almost a sure thing can get pulled at any time. If he said they'd add it, and they didn't, then he'd be labeled a liar even if he explained why. 402 doesn't make the decisions, he's just the go-between. The devs likely did have plans for CTF, but the plug was probably pulled from those above in management. 402 isn't perfect, but he's usually quite careful in what information he releases, not to get people's hopes up...so when he made the original statement, it probably was indeed the plan to add it in.

The fact remains that CTF was never officially listed to be included in a patch. I wasn't flaming you when I wrote my statement, but your response to me seems pretty snarky.

Re: World at War Multiplayer Revealed

I usually only use 4 perks in CoD4 anyway: Bandolier, Stopping Power, Deep Impact, and Steady Aim.


Some of these new ones seem downright pointless.
" Second Chance

Last-Stand with a twist. As in CoD4's Perk, when you get fragged, you drop to the ground for a few more seconds with only a pistol as a weapon. You lie there waiting for death...however, in CoD: WW, as reported here a few days ago, the new "Second Chance" perk lets you get resuscitated by a teammate who also has Second Chance. This is a nice idea, but I suspect that it will get both you and your teammate killed more frequently. "

Even if I used Second Chance for whatever reason, I'd let my teammates die for being so stupid as to use this perk.

No snarkiness intended and I truely did appreicate your reply.

What I was getting at in my reply was the wording used made it sound like this was going to happen. "A decision was made to pull something to make the game better and we are working on it and will get it back in the game ASAP, or maybe not."

When you have so many people (in other forums, not just me and one other person ) ask over and over again about CTF and nothing comes up or is ever mentioned again, there is obviously a communication problem.

And yes, 402 is just a lowly middle man, so when you see him again, give him a kiss for me and tell him I am sorry.

Re: World at War Multiplayer Revealed

Are the attack dogs airdropped?

And you've gotten the replacements wrong, 5 is airstrike, 7 is helo. airstrike = arty, dogs = helo

Re: World at War Multiplayer Revealed

Whiskey brought up another good point. I wouldnt believe any of the perks, gameplays, or weapons until the game is released. It can all be taken out.

Probably no air dropped vampire dogs :/

Re: World at War Multiplayer Revealed

Dangit, I was going to pwn nubs with those flying dogs! :yay:

Also, I believe they were going to include ctf b/c it wasn't hard for modders to do it. If you play the mod, it's great ctf just like CoD2. :)

Re: World at War Multiplayer Revealed

Call me a wimp but I don't like the dogs, I actually did all the CoD4 campaign without killing any. They all look like my dog . I for one find it depressing to kill a god that looks just like mine and does a wimper just like when i tread on his foot when it goes down...

Oh and that pic is bloody awesome lol

Re: World at War Multiplayer Revealed

Why bother having a reward for killing 7 people? Just cap it at 5 because the dogs just sound stupid...

The DOW is a lie!

Re: World at War Multiplayer Revealed

You all make it sound like the DoW is a great idea... I mean, really? Having a bunch of dogs running across the map? TDM's will be even worse now, keeping martyrdom, adding dogs, the list just goes on...

Re: World at War Multiplayer Revealed

Perks is one thing, but the UAV and so on is another.

I dont mind so much them having it in, but if they are going to persist with this rankings, they need to make it so that the UAV can be toggled off without forcing the server admin to use modwarfare.

If this is done, the game will be 10x more successful IMO.
