Hi,
I'm thinking of getting COD 2, I enjoyed the 1st one
However I have heard some people say that they are dissapointed with the new realease, saying it's same old, same old.....
Then again, other people love this game....
What do you think?

Well..Yes its same old same old - but thats a GOOD thing.
Just like when doom3 came out, that was same old same old doom action - and I loved it for it
COD2 is a great game, great fun to play, with the only downside being its slight console simplifications (eg the horrible new health system).
Worth your moneySequals are not there to give millions of new innovative things, they are there to continue on the series in a similar style. This is what COD2 does beautifully (and what doom3 did
)
I did like the first release, so all should be good for COD2
I have just noticed that HEXUS have done a COD2 review
One thing Im interested in is the Multiplayer, people say this is so good!.......
The demo is great, really tempted to buy it.
just finished Call of Duty 2 it was that good i am now playing call of duty 1 on hard so i can enjoy it all over again.I think the way you regain helth is a good idea.![]()
It's great, the bloody breathing really get me nervous lol
Im a massive fan of COD, and UO and i hate it. Performance is pathetic, health system is crap, weapons are aweful, MP issues, it's crap.![]()
COD2 is fun to play, I found on my system upping the AGP aperture size allowed me to run it with more detail and in DX9 mode for anyone having probs getting it running smooth (same goes for Quake 4)
Its really easy to get into and lures you into a false sense of security as the Russian levels are extremely easy to play through and so are the British levels up until one point ! You rescue some American soldiers in a small town then you play an American level where its D Day but you do a different beach and have to scale the walls and fight through trenches, its so chaotic. At this point the difficulty goes from dead easy on the normal level to really challenging !
All in all its a darned good game, only dubious thing about it is the health system. Its almost the same as HALO where if you duck behing cover you become fine again in a few seconds. However a headshot or well placed grenade can and will kill you instantly (Germans never seem to miss with the grenades which can be a little annoying, if you are lucky a squad mate will pick up the grenade and throw it back). Also you can take on the objectives in different ways, either throw in a smoke grenade and rush the enemy or flank them to the left or right and catch them by surprise.
Goiong back to the health system you dont have any point type system in place, the edges of the screen start to go red which is the warning sign. What I like about this is that there isnt a need for a hud so it feels very immersive with nothing onscreen unless you change weapon or load.
judging by how similar the demo was the cod 1 i would recommend this game to you
if i had the cash at hand, i would have gone out and bought it already
just my two cents
i'm loving it, really suprised at how much fun it is, and difficult on the hardest setting, and it looks awesome
I've played it through and loved it. There are a few niggles but with luck there will be a patch to sort those out.
