A simulator? You're definitely approaching the game wrong if that's what you were expecting. lord-of-shadow Send a noteboard - 01/09/2009 01:00:07 AM
Call of Duty is not a simulator in any way. It is a gameplay-centric FPS with a modern military aesthetic and veneer through over it. Not a simulator, not intended to be a simulator.

So I suppose what I'm saying is that, if you want a military sim or expect a military sim, then you're not the target audience of that single-player campaign. Not that your complaint is "wrong".

I myself think that COD4 has the best single-player mode of any FPS... and I didn't care for its multiplayer.

You're right about the enemies. Also, The Witcher was great. Zalis - 31/08/2009 09:27:58 PM 1112 Views
The problem is that it is counter-intuitive in a military simulator. Werthead - 01/09/2009 12:47:45 AM 1113 Views

But by employing a modern aesthetic, it does encourage playing in a more modern style. Werthead - 01/09/2009 02:31:21 AM 1160 Views

If an opinion were meant to be private, we'd take it to PMs. Glad to have you chime in. lord-of-shadow - 01/09/2009 07:23:48 PM 1162 Views
