Call of Duty 2

[Red Door]

I would be telling you how I was doing. Except I ran into a problem, a big problem, Multi-Player! I've been playing for 3-4 hours every day now.

 

[Maniacal]

The multiplayer is the best part. If you can find a good servor with good maps it's a blast.

I only played multi Cod2 for an hour and only on one servor, but the 13|Clan is a good servor, usualy, they use colourful language sometimes though. Austin Servors on the other hand have Big Brother Bot and keep troublemakers out and the language clean, also there are some very decent players in their UO servors. CUF League also have good UO servors, might want to try those as well.

I liked Men of God, they have some nice Bible quotes when you die, and they play with Panzershecks. One server I found is really, really good, I need to find the name.

This game has made me thankful I did not live through World War II. Realistic to the point where my heart was pounding. The rope scene during D-Day seemed especially real.

The first game that actually did that to me was, ironically, Medal of Honour. I had a guy in my sniper scopes and he was blissfully unaware.

Just made me think about the amount of people who did that for real.

For some reason I just can't get into Call of Duty 2. For comparison I started on the Call of Duty (1) campaign, and am thoroughly enjoying it again! I did enjoy the CoD 2 demo with the British though, so maybe I just don't like the Russian campaign. I'll try to play through it when I get a new headphone.

I take back my words. The remainder of the Russian campaign was quite enjoyable (if you call getting torn to shreds by a Panzer II 10 times in a row enjoyable), and the British campaign is really good! Breaching through the lines at El Alamein was as much fun as the Pegasus-Bridge level in the original CoD.

However, my graphics card apparently isn't able to cope with the game. It keeps giving me a weird messed-up screen every few minutes. I am able to continue after that, but it's very annoying and hinders immersion in the game. Strangely enough the game ran fine when I first bought it.

Have you downloaded patch 1.3? That helped me.

 

[Strauss]

There is a patch 1.3? I'm afraid the problem is a bit 'deeper' than that, since my entire PC has been acting weird lately. I'm probably bringing it back to the store next week to have it cleaned up completely and get some extra RAM installed. But I'll see if the patch helps anyway. If it doesn't I'll stick to GTA 3 for the coming week (bought it Friday).

My favorite map in Multiplayer is Toujane, Tunisia, that's a street fight.

 

[Strauss]

I like the French city maps most. Ste. Mere Eglise and Caen are my favorites. Carentan was fun at first too, but I think I overplayed it a bit.

BTW, the patch didn't work. I looked the error message up and it might help if I turn VPU recover off. Still have to try it out.

 

[Red Door]

Ste. Mere Eglise is pretty good, IIRC, there's a lot of great sniper spots there.

 

[Maniacal]

MMM, sniper spots.

Not in COD:UO, I think that version might be a 3rd party map though, but it's not that good for snipers, but great for Retrieval.

Have not played it in COD2.

 

[Ciceronian]

Got it today. Enjoyed Call of Duty 1 because of the very dense atmosphere, I hope Call of Duty 2 can match it (and is a bit longer).

In my opinion, it can match the atmosphere, but is much shorter.

Yes, the first level was very intense already and met my expectations. I got an error message when loading the next one though.

Does anyone else play the zombie mod?

No?

I've played a zombie mod for CS, but this sounds interesting. Details?

There aren't many ervers playing it, but it's fun as hell.

Basically, allies are Hunters, axis are zombies.
You start off with one zombie and everyone else hunters.

Hunters have low health, and are armed with a shotgun, and a pistol, while zombies are strong,a nd are only armed with a club.
Everytime a zombie kills a htner, the hunter becomes a zombie.

This means the game will inevitably play out with a lot of hunters taking refuge on the top level of a buildiing, holding off hordes of ever-expanding zombies, while they charge wave style.

 

[Red Door]

What's a server name that plays that? It sounds extremely fun.

What's a server name that plays that? It sounds extremely fun.

I don't seem to be able to access it at the moment, but under "game type" sort alphabetically and look for "zom".

You'll have to tujrn auto downloads on.



I forgot to mention all the normal levels are at nightime, witha thick mist, which means you can only see real close to you, adding to the suspense and fun.
