CoD is Here!!!!!

[Mr.Mellow]

To show your FPS in game CoD type "/cg_drawfps 1".

Ah yes, my bad, I forgot the _ when I posted last, sorry fellas  

Btw, Ultimo, I noticed that once I entered in that code to get fps, I never have to key it in again, my FPS always show up now in games.  So, is there a way to de-activate it?

Try replacing the 1 with a 0 (zero) in the code. That should do the trick. Hope that helps!

I am having a hell of a difficult time trying to pass this current stage I'm at.  Ok, I am Russian, and I am at the 4 story building and I have cleared the building and then destroyed about 4-5 tanks (after numerous attempts over and over) and I have about 2:20 seconds left till reinforcements come, and I have hardly a spec of health left.  

These AIs just keep coming and coming and my fellow comrades aren't doing dick, I get fired from within the buliding and out and I have all these fucking tanks to destroy, and you think the game would give me more health for completing more objectives, but noooooo.

I even went back to repeat the beginning of the mission so I can ensure I go in with 100% health, well that doesnt help one bit, b/c yer gonna lose most of it later on.

Is anyone there, or even passed that?  I need a helpful hand here....  

[Typhy]

I just beat that part, took me two tries because I accidently shot the reinforcement tank with my anti tank weapon ( oops ).

I'd go back to the save when you rush across the field and set up the base of fire on the building. Make sure to clear the building with full health, so that defending it is easy.  

[|MP|Nomad]

ok, but I have mine set to the hardest difficulty level, and I have tried so many different things, at least over 100x no doubt, running everywhere, suppressive fire, throwing granades to slow them down, even infiltratiing the lower level complex to get them as they come in, but to no avail.

I dont think I would have ever said these 2 words but..........I QUIT!!! (just kiddin  )

[Mr. Lothario]

     This is the first single-player campaign in many moons that I've actually enjoyed. I've just started the level "truckride". I'm only playing it on normal, but so far, there've only been a couple of sticky spots.

[Typhy]

Just finished the Russian Campain. I must say, that was the first tank-commanding in any game that I've actually enjoyed. No more of this "Tiger tank 40%" shit. You hit 'em good, they're gone. Excellent movement, great framerates throughout the tank scenes, and incredibly fun.

Just now moving into Bastogne with the 101st Airborne.

[Mr. Lothario]

     Heh, I just finished the tank mission too. Agreed, fun stuff. I especially like that you're more likely to get a single-shell kill if you hit the turret. Nice touch.

[|MP|Nomad]

I am still f***ing stuck on that Russian 4 Story Building !!!!   I should have played SP at a medium difficulty level from the beginning, then I would have been finished the game by now.

I am actually contemplating throwing away all those hours of game play and start over again at moderate level.  One hand that pisses me off, yet on the other, if I add the number of hours I have spent trying to pass this one level to that of playing the entire game thus far, I bet the number  of hours are not that far off.

Decisions.....Decisions
 

[Mr.Mellow]

Argh one more day til it comes. Man. I so desperately need CoD. Right now, too! I'm gonna die of tuberculosis if it doesn't come soon. How's multiplayer, guys? And...anyone know if there's gonna be GR support? I sure hope so, but if not, it's all good.

[crypt]

Multiplayer fucking owns, even on high settings i get nice FPS.

[cO.gabe]

Welcome me to the club guys, because I just bought CoD!  And it fuckin OWNS!

[|MP|Nomad]

Well folks, I just finished the game!!   *sigh*  

About 3x I went to main menu and clicked on New Game after another 50-60 try's at that hard part of the game and it came up with the promt "Are you sure?" and it explained how I would lose all my saved games, it was so tempting to go back and play it on an easier level, but I didnt!! It pissed me off to know that all that work would have meant nothing.

For those that want to test their skill level (well SP skill level anyway) and play on Veteran, when you get to that part of the game, all I can say is:

1) closed room 2) connecting balcony to adjecent room 3) basement

[Brain]

4) do not, under any circumstances, camp on the top floor. doing so will only hasten you death

Agreed.  I had to learn that the hard way.  I thought my Russian comrades will help slow the germans down, those clowns weren't worth d__k (8===D  )

[Brain]

yea, that and the tanks out side don't help matters either

[Typhy]

Just beat CoD for the second time, this time on Veteran. Hardest parts for me were the 4 story building, but also holding the bridge during the British campain, and trying to steal the airplane.

My advice for the 4 story building is simply to keep moving, never stop. Grab an MP40, so that you don't have to worry about ammo. Oh yes, and save. . . Lots.

As for CoD SP, ***** ( 5 stars ), best single player game I've ever played.

I might add that I beat the game on Veteran in less than 24 hours. . . Not sure wether that's a good thing or a bad thing.

 

[Mr. Lothario]

     I beat it on Normal this morning. The building and the airfield were the only parts I had trouble with. The airfield pissed me off. They tell me to get on the cannon, then they don't defend me. Every time I died from the twenty guys sitting on the rooftop taking shots at me, I thought, "How about I shoot down the damn Stukas you keep bitching about, and you kill the guys who are filling me with lead, so I don't have to ignore the Stukas and use the cannon to kill the infantry?" That, more than almost anything in the game, pointed out that the AI is scripted rather than being "true" AI. Not only was it obnoxious from a gameplay standpoint, it was so unrealistic that it jarred me out of my suspension of disbelief.

     The other anti-suspension of disbelief thing in the game was the way that every time an enemy was on an MG42, they'd be sweeping the field, killing my squad, but the instant I come into view, they swing right over and focus on me. I duck behind something, they go back to killing other people, I stand up, they swing back to me. Yeah, apparently every damn German in Europe was briefed on me and told that I was the most important soldier in the war and my death should be priority number one. Pfft. Lesson one in how to remind your players that "oh yeah, this is a game."

[BTs_Lee.Harvey]

well I beat hardend in 6 or 7 hrs today (played most of it yesterday till i could not stay awake anymore then played a hr today) I like it.. much better then moh.

[Mr.Mellow]
