now i know i have posted this a good 4 or 5 month's before it's shipping date, but i just want to take the time to talk about my thoughts of the trailer. now i'm sure that the developers will beat the alluring moth attracting flame of this game at E3 next month, but the fact is this. the engine they have been using since call of duty 2 is really starting to tire. and i'm sure this game will do the usual Quid Pro Quo by killing off the character(s) your playing as, which leave's you thinking that following that specific characters story is pointless. why build up all of this connection with a guy your playing as and then kill him off. i got frustrated when general Shepherd killed roach from modern warfare 2, and i nearly thought the game was gonna douche me again near the end when soap got pwned.
of course we only got small snippets of gameplay in the trailer, but was it enough to make me salivate with anticipation?
no, it failed to grasp my attention from some points, and we are still in that state of flux of thinking that the worlds enemy is Russia, are we still in some paradox where the Russians like to eat babies or something? i mean, why not have a different enemy like the korea...... the germ...... the itallia...... fuck it..... Russia it is then. i mean the Italians didn't mind giving up in the second world war, what chance do they have in the third?.... not my place to say though.
the only thing that looks interesting is having to fight in countries such as France, Germany and England. i'm willing to guess that the French campaign will have a lot of help from the English, or will have a lot of some form of running away. we also have a large skirmish of new york, which left me thinking. the last time we played as Ramirez in modern warfar 2, you just beaten the Russians out of Washington and there was talk of invading Moscow. so what happened? do the Russians control both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans? cause if the Russians are still kicking ass in america then their counter attack must have went belly up.
we also may have seen what looks like the shadowy figure of ghost (i'm willing to guess there are ghost fanboys already tweeting or facebooking or just damn right ravenously and furiously masturbating about this.) which is fair enough, but ghost was a blank slate of which i had no care for when he got.... ¬_¬..... killed...... heck, they brought back price, why not bring back gaz, you know, the dude which Zakhieve shot in the face.
now i know ranting isn't going to cover the fact that this game is gonna sell like hot cakes and be plotted with the "MOST ANTICIPATED GAME OF THE DECADE" for the third time in a row, but like i said, the developers need to follow the lead of dice, make a new engine for christ sake and shake up the story line a bit more then just killing off a players character, i don't know, launch a nuke at the moon or something. but the fighting in my home country of England will be kind of cool.
i'm telling you, if i see one Russian land in my garden, he's a fucking dead man!

I believe COD4 was a new engine which is way it played so different and started this craze...
Correct me if I'm wrong.
i'm afraid not, it's just a heavily modified quake 3 engine which has been in use since call of duty 2.

In which case- let me the chance to talk about usage.
Quid Pro Quo is you do some for me, I do some for you. What you described as the usual quid pro quo:
killing off the character(s) your playing as, which leave's you thinking that following that specific characters story is pointless.
Is not quid pro quo. It's something else- please go read what you write before you write it- TWICE.
wow, there are some real gormless people here, i took my old one from the review thing on modern warfare 3 and put it on to my blog, the fact is. no amount of fuck is given on this day.
Ironically I agree 100% with your opinions- it's your failure to communcate effectively that ultimately has me angry and the fact that once someone posted "hey- it seems the timing of your statements is fucked" the first thing you didn't say "oh- yeah, here's why" or edit your blog- just makes you look stupid. And yes I'm making fun of you for using british words- even moreso now since you didn't even seem to understand the usage of your own fucking words.
@mfpantst: and i'll say it again, 4 weeks ago when the original post was put i had a friend tell me i put it up in the wrong spot, he told me i should have put it up on my blog area. so now it up on my blog area. and the fact that your taking offence must say something about where your from,This is all I didn't see anywhere in your OP. That is all. Re-reading your post- you aren't "saying it again" you are saying it for the first time in this thread. That's my point- all the rest (making fun of your usage, using stupid in place of gormless, making fun of how you used quid pro quo wrong in your blog) was being pissed because you simply did not put a little piece in your blog saying what you just said. I'll leave you alone then.
