Btw, anyone see the similarity of the "new" engine to the quake engine? I mean *.iwd files are just basic zips as pk3 files were, the console comands are basically the same. So is the directory structure.

Runs like crap on my system. p4 3.0 and 6800gt

Maps are in bsp format, and that is what id games use.

it looks good but the last set of screenshots on gamershell looks like Call of Duty 1..the graphics look like shit in those. Like they dont use the nice looking shading effects as in the other ones, and blob shadows. I dont understand.

Anyways, I hope the demo will run on my computer...looking better than that crap.

I just checked Nvidia users forum (www.nvnews.net) and it seems that the demo is not very stable from a FPS point of view (even on high-end rig's). Let's hope they'll fix that on the retail version...

played the demo again. it's tooooo damn scripted... it looks like a platform game now. u clean an area with 10-12 germans shooting at you, u move to the next location with another dozen germans and so on till the end of the mission.
let me say i'm not impressed at all. this one has just been deleted from the "to buy" list and added to the "leech then consider buying" one


i agree. and also with your previous post about the graphics..

and where are the goddamn physics in this game Confused it looks so fucked when you trow a nade and 3 nazi's die in exactly the same way..

Doesn't look great to me. Maybe it's limiting my graphical settings? Looks better than the original but not by a huge margin. As far as the gameplay goes, which is what I judge a game on - it's COD again with a few more bells and whistles.

The fact that I haven't even bothered to complete the demo should mean something; if you found the repetitive action of COD to be ultimately scripted, pointless and lame - you aren't going to find much refuge in it's sequel.

The demo was decent. It's basicly cod1 with better graphics, so people that liked cod1 will love this.

Btw, graphics are far better than dod:source. But still not that awesome.


Nah I disagree, Dod looks better then CoD2 with its HDR rendering and far superior textures...

There is a reported bug in the game where using 1600x1200 reduces the texture quality and turns off bumpmaps. This is what your screens look like.
Using higher or lower resolutions than 1600x1200 gives normal graphics.

Graphics to me is so much more than just awesome textures, which source is built around. It would really look like shit if you removed the high quality textures from a source based game, this is not the case with COD2 since it doesn't even have the high quality textures to begin with. And therefor COD2 to me looks alot better than any source based game, so far. Smile
But neither is GREAT looking, just decent.

You also have to remember that the demo is obviously limited. The retail version will look better, movies show this.

Funnily enough thats what I thought when I looked at copywrongs shots, the game still looked good but alot of the fine details and as you said bumpmapping weren't there.

Does anyone think that this game will have higher detail settings in the retail than on the demo? don't get me wrong the game looks ace and more importantly runs well but I expected the engine to push my hardware a little more, at present my PC has more trouble running Dawn of War:WA on max settings than this game which seemed a little strange. Smile

edit....ah pallebrun beat me to it. Very Happy

And then a reaction to this one:

Wtf , there are still people saying it look like the first one . I think those people are playing this game with an nvidia card MX 440 . There is no other explanation .
Btw , just bought 7800 Gtx / 3500 Amd , and i come from Radeon 9700 Pro / 2100 Amd .


The gfx of Cod 2 are 10 Times better then the gfx of Cod 1 .
I have never seen a FPS like this . The smoke efects are really amazing . I played the demo of Fear , and there the smoke efects where great , but in Cod 2 they are AMAZING .

Untill now the best gfx i ever seen in a FPS . Can't wait the final release .

Completely bullshit, BF2 looks much and much nicer then this game if it looks like this on highest settings...

I didn't much like CoD, so my expectations with CoD2 were met.

I prefer non-scripted scenes with non-dumbed down realism.

The kids will love this one though.


Yes, yes I'm back.
Somewhat.

I am very very disappointed. Truly.... nothing has changed, nothing. It's exactly like CoD only with better graphics and new effects. You're with an entire squad but strangley (as in CoD) you're the only one doing something. You can go to a fight and wait 6 hours and still your allies will be fighting the axis with no advances, what so ever, at every corner they stop for you to go in and clear the situation for them so they can advance to the next obstacle, which you alone, will once again have to overcome. The game is still scripted to the max and I see now new functions, what I see is CoD with a new coat....

I did not await for CoD2, since I knew it was going to be the same sit all over again and I was right. There are too many MOH games, other WW2 games and CoD that are just like CoD2 so there's no reason for me to play this at all. If I want graphics I'll go for Doom3 or HL2, Fear, if I want CoD2 gameplay, I'll play CoD. If I truly want a good WW2 game I'll play Red Orchestra. This game is a waist of money and time by the studio who made it in my opinion, but as Fisk said, the kids will like it.
