Call of Duty 4 Demo

[paceman]

Anyone trying this demo?

I've always been a huge fan of COD, but they pissed me off when the last one was a console only. Trying to device if I want to try it or not. I'm a bit burnt out on warfare after the Battlefield series.

The MP Beta (Xbox 360) was fun for a bit, but it reminded me WAY too much of CS, but more Deathmatchy Theres also the persistent unlocks and global ranking stats, which I personally hate because of what I saw happen in BF2 :P

I'm sure the production values for the SP will be will be high, but from everything I've heard, its much more of the same - linear gameplay with everyone gunning for you while you run around playing super soldier. Which was fine back in the day, but its been done. to death.

I would try it out but I having trouble dividing my time between UT3, TF2 and Crysis so it is doubtful.

[BenKenobi]

Yeah I installed the demo, it was pretty fun!

[Rand{CLR}]

I didn't really like it. In fact, I uninstalled it after finishing the demo level.

I feel your pain. I can barely play UT3 for all my time in TF2.

Such a terrible problem

Yeesh...

I thought my gaming time was convoluted NOW.

Pick WHICH game? Oh well, I'm budget mizerly, so
I'll get the most bang for the buck.

Quite the contrary, in my humble opinion.

The depth of field blur effects, the light bloom effects and the textures were hands down amazing compared to BF2142. Although BF2142 was released a while a go, and it is based on the aging BF2 engine, the difference is pretty clear.

SS I shot @ 2560x1600: http://www.symobius.com/_cgc/cod4demo.png
(notice the depth of field blur on the tank in the screenshot and the HDR lighting, as well as the self cast shadows)

I for one thought the single player demo did exactly what it was designed to do. While I suspect the multi-player will be more like Halo 3 than BF2142(not my style), I must give props to Activision's art department.

P.S. On top of that, it's a very well coded game. At 2560x1600, it doesn't miss a frame and run solid at around 100 frames per second. That's more than a lot of other games can do successfully.

Found the demo boring and extremely linear.

The full game is just the same.

Found the demo boring and extremely linear.

And really short. Don't think I'll be buying this one.
