CoD:WaW on Veteran

By FoolInjection 4 Comments

Been sitting having a go at Call of Duty: World at War's Veteran mode while I'm defragmenting my PC here.  I seem to be doing not too bad and I seem to only be gettin stuck at the same bits I was stuck on when I was playing on Hardened.  I've just gotten past the sniper in the windows section of the first Russian army level.  I'm now at the bit after your compatriots come in and save your bacon where you have to snipe the guys with the flamethrowers.

The only real difference between Hardened and Veteran seems to be that you can only take one bullet from a rifle and OMG the grenade spaming.  Literally nowhere is safe on veteran.  Its exactly the same as in CoD4.  You go prone or crouch behind some cover and as soon as you do a grenade appears... and then the game becomes hunt the nade so you can throw it back before it kills you. 

Just heard about the new patch and map for WaW, the new map Makin is basicly a day version of the Makin night map we already have but apparently the tide is out too so you probably won't find so many guys sniping from the water anymore.

Still haven't broken into any of the 3 new games I've got sitting there.  I've been too busy messing about in CoD:WaW.  I'm kind of gettting tired of the online though.  Because I haven't been playing it as much as a lot of people seem to be there are too many people with the best weapons and perks just running around mowing people down with the STG-44 and that other rifle that I forget the name of right now.  Kind of sucks as the multiplayer is good... just maybe not as good as CoD4's was.

Yeah, I do hate the constant grenade spam on Veteran.
And, I keep seeing people using the STG-44 also. Getting kinda annoying, I've been using the SVT and FG-42 recently.

Huh, I don't get the CoD 4 is better kinda stuff. I personally think CoD: WaW is x10 better then CoD 4...

The FG-42 was the other rifle I was thinking about.  I was on a map, the new Makin actually, where a guy had that along with Bandolier, Double Tap and Martyrdom.  He just ran around the map and obliterated everyone and was unstoppable.

The whole I think CoD4 might be better thing stems from the way the weapons are unlocked.  I think in CoD4 your base default starting kit was pretty middle of the road and you knew you could fall back on it if you had to, while unlocked guns might have been better in some areas but not in them all, it was a trade off, sacrafice automatic fire for more accuracy, more rounds per minute for less damage.  In WaW every new weapon unlock is better than the one previous so the higher your rank the better the weapons are or at least thats how I feel about it.  Once you get the STG-44, the FG-42 and PPSH... you don't really need to switch those out for anything.

So yeah I think the weapon unlocks in CoD4 were more balanced.  Hence better online experience.
