    4 player online

    Activision has confirmed the newest instalment in the Call of Duty series will feature an online co-op mode for up to four players.

    That goes for the Xbox 360, PS3 or PC versions, which will also offer two-player split-screen co-op. The Wii game will have its own "unique" two-player co-op mode.

    According to the press release, the co-op campaign "allows players to rank up and unlock perks in competitive multiplayer by completing challenges and earning experience points".

    Said experience points are collected whenever you're playing online, whether competitively or co-operatively. The game's difficulty level will "scale dynamically" according to your experience rank and the ranks of the people you're playing with.

    4 player co-op and 2 player split screen sounds great. PS3 needs more games with that option. Hope Resistance keeps split screen aswell. With COD4 being such a big success I'm sure Treyarch (or whatever they are called) are making a big effort to bring their game up to standard. And lets face it, it will probably be 10x better then Haze even if it isn't upto COD4 standards. I'll be getting this one for sure :)

    If its still got lagtastic servers I won't be.

    Can't imagine waiting 2 days for the lancaster airstrike to fly over Russia though:p

    I think they should make a fair go at this time as they have had far longer to get it right this time.

    Its just the damn server issues that put me off this game. Oh and the Doris:o

    Are you talking about server issues on COD 4?

    If they use the same method of online in the new one as COD4 uses i.e someones PS3 then I won't be buying it. Can't see the point of playing second fiddle to a yank host all the time.

    Dedicated servers or my money stays in my pocket for Resistance 2.

    Aren't you level 10 prestige on COD4? I doubt it will use the same system as COD4 seeing as its a different company developing it. Dedicated servers are unlikely though. PS3 seems to get bummed with unreliable servers unless its a PS3 exclusive. GTA IV being a good example.

    I don't see them implementing dedicated servers. I wont be buying it either unless they do.

    yep level 45 now.:) Check the stats for the lag though!!

    Early afternoon is great as no Yanks and I can get 4 bars. Come 8 onwards and down to three and then 2 and sometimes 1.

    Just quit games now as its pointless staying. Emptying a P90 clip from 5 feet and the dude not dying sort of clinches it "as time to leave".:mad:

    That crossfire game was a joke last night, I had the same!

    1: Empty whole AK47 clip into back of enemy.
    2: Not 1 bullet registering as a hit.
    3: Guy turns round and kills me with very little effort!
    4: P**sed off Bene!!!!

    I even heard you use the C word last night, very out of character!

    Underwater Tactics

    Unlike Previous CoD titles, you now have the ability to swim and use the sea to your advantage. Some of the best sniper points will require you to wade for a while. But is that sweet sniper spot worth the slowdown caused by the water? Is it worth being exposed for that amount of time? Probably. You can also hide beneath the wave for a time and lie in wait for a victim, or use the water to get behind opponents who are dug in and impossible to reach by land. This is yet another element that will broaden the CoD online experience and ultimately reward those who work as a team.

    You can also have Vehicle-only matches :eek:

    So it is going to use the same perk system as COD4? Climbing trees sounds fun! especially when trying to get away from Galv

    If its not dedicated servers, it will be p2p ie same as cod4 so chances are it will be crud unless they give hosts the ability to region lock games themselves, so if you want to play with yanks feel free, but if you dont you can lock it to your own or specified rerion(s).

    As for the perks, imho they would work better with some thought behind them ie martydom only works if you havent spunked all you 3 frags away first, so i you have 1 left fine, the perk isnt wasted but if you have chucked em all at the start of s+d tough titty you're empty handed!
    Also things like juggernaut, if you have more health it should take longer to regenerate...
    Bandolier - more weight=less speed etc etc.
    And ive said it before, bionic arm perk for longer nade throws, and without it they are only good for about 25/30 metres

    And as long as LMG's havent got near sniper accuracy and distance it shouldn't be too bad...........

    Hopefully there will be a demo up first , they have big boots to fill really !

    MONKEY PERK allows players who have it to sit in full view of everyone whilst playing with themselves and drinking their own p-i-s-s whilst flinging s-h-i-t at the walls.

    Play Dead Perk!!?:eek:

    Whats that going to be like playing S&D?
    If you did'nt already have a Camp-o-thon and every man and his dog thinking they are Lord of the Ninja Defuse.

    Now Campers can lie still playing dead for a whole round then jump up right behind you and stick a Katana up your jinker "Banzai!"



    By the way Pidge - Nice Thread!;)
