Appearantly the next Medal of Honor will do the opposite, and be modern day, according to this rumor site:

But why not one from german perspective ? it doesnt have to be Waffen SS single player mowing down jews , but how about a story about a young guy forced to be enlisted into the wehrmacht when the war was starting to turn with the fall of stalingrad , maybe it would be "political correct" enough for ppl not to have a huge outcry.


I have also been balling with that idea for a few years and I think it could be great, but would prolly be too politically incorrect anyway, people in general are just too sensitive about these things.

But yeah, it would've had a lot of potential if done right.

Indeed, it'd never fly. The media would run wild with it, and misrepresent it, just to get attention, instantly calling it a Jew-killing simulator or something, no matter what the game actually is about, without ever playing the game themselves.

Small details about the game. Smile
(Unsure what the setting will be, also seems it's still intended for it to arrive on most of the currently active formats and the PC.)

They should have you play as a German in WWII.

I mean they let you play as a Russian, and Stalin's rule pretty much killed more Russians than the Germans ever did.

Yeah, I wonder why not many Vietnam games have shown during the years... Only here and there, some mediocre games.


Its a hard setting to master. I think it would frustrate the players by having so many trees and such in a jungle battle. Most FPS just provide wide open areas to walk around in. Multiplayer would be very far off from capturing the feeling of Vietnam completely as games focus to much on balance when it should be based off of the Vietnamese having more people but the Americans being better armed. But even if they kept that feeling the Vietnamese would most likely win with less causalities as skill means more than firepower in FPS's plus having a uneven team ratio would just doom it more.

Plus its commonly seen as there was no good guys in Vietnam with what the American forces did and since America lost it ... Giving a white wash to history on the single player campaign would be lame. My father inlaw was in Vietnam and the shit he told me he himself did to innocent people was just sickening. I think you'll have the amount of chance of seeing a true Vietnam game as much as you have a WW2 game that shows what happens in concentration camps.

Boy I remember how pissed my Drill Sargent was when I questioned the Soldiers Creed when it said "I will never accept defeat" and brought up Vietnam and said we should give it another try Laughing

What about a Vietnam setting? That could be nice, think about The Vietcong game (Pretty good Imho). Or if they want to keep sticking to the present, they could set the game in south America where you have deal with the FARC Guerillas, or maybe in chechnya.

Hmm, come to think of it, my last two suggestions probably won't happen, as these settings are not very political correct. What do you guys think??

Good idea. But as much as I like WWII games I don't mind if COD5 will be set in the present. What about some country in Africa? You know, getting rid of Mugabe or something, or maybe Burma...

Pacific it is!

Quote:

A few weeks back Activision confirmed a new installment in the Call of Duty franchise in the works, albeit not by Infinity War, but rather by Treyarch. Promising a "new theatre of war," Call of Duty 5, using the COD 4 engine, goes back to WWII but this time set in the Pacific (and Russia's advance into Berlin) according to UK magazine GamesTM. COD5 will be darker, scarier with enemies using different tactics (hiding in trees, sneaking, suicidal etc.) For the first time in the series the game will feature 4-player co-op while multiplayer includes vehicles, squad based elements, a return of COD4's perks, and support for the Wii zapper.

(For better or worse. )

I hated MoH: Pacific Assault, and now Treyarch is set to make a crappy sequel to CoD3 (CoD4 is effectively a different branch, IW-branch). No interest in this whatsoever.

i think megagames misunderstood their comment..
""For Call of Duty, we'll bring the intensity of the recent Call of Duty: Modern Warfare title to yet a new military theater"

all makes sense
cod5 with cod4's engine - intensity of cod4
new military theater - pacific

Ask yourself this.. If u would have one big fat fucking gamers monster PC
and all consoles. And all good games would be released on ALL consoles + PC
.. On what platform would u play it. U would be a moron to be chosing
a console. PC gaming is by far the best expirience ever. + Graphics setup
u can put everything max no long load times NO LAG ON PC! WHAT EVER
the fuck happends on screen lol.. Back in the day all games where still
released somewhat the same date's as console. As we all know not anymore.

Just because pc games get pirated to much. kthxbey
