Call of Duty 4 has many attractive multiplayer features that set it apart from your average online shooter. With a massive online community that is supported with patches and map packs, CoD 4 has built, and continues to grow, a sizeable community that is more than comfortable with the game's multiplayer. Traditionally, FPS gamers are unwilling to join an exodus away from the familiarity of their habitual shooters, even if the move is more-or-less sideways. A famous example of this is in the Counter Strike realm when the world was thrown into turmoil over the release of Counter Strike Source. Sure Counter Strike Source had better graphics and an updated game engine, but Counter Strike purists refused to leave Counter Strike 1.6.
Weapon customisation is a key component in CoD 4's multiplayer experience. With October set for the multiplayer beta release of World at War, we will see just how customisable a weapon from the 1940's can be. It's safe to assume that the limitations in the eras weapon technology cannot match up to those of the modern age.
So personally would you move to cod5's online community or prefer staying at cod4's?
