Following last summer's announcement that a Call of Duty sequel was in the works, Activision has now released the first details of its WW II shooter Call of Duty 2.

CoD 2 is set for release in fall 2005 and is currently under development by Infinity Ward, creators of the original game. The game will follow four individual soldiers across a variety of campaigns, so expect a similar format to its predecessor. Players will be offered the chance to play out each character's story before moving on to the next or to play out the battles in chronological order.

The in-game combat has been modified in order to add an element of squad tactics to the gameplay. Although this would seem to suggest that CoD may be going down the Brothers in Arms road, Infinity Ward will be quick to tell you that it is not the case. The description of gameplay however, mentions ...various mission objectives, expansive battlefields allowing for multiple paths and the use of actual battlefield tactics such as outflanking.

The developers are also promising better visuals through a vastly improved engine and AI, which will also improve the quality of the squad based gameplay. CoD 2 will also include the Battle Chatter System, which will voice-connect squad-mates allowing for the rapid exchange of context-sensitive updates.

Call of Duty 2 will be released for PC in fall 2005.

Another game i love,and yes it does seem they are following the path of "Brothers in Arms" but still Call Of Duty has been there for a long time now,and it sure does have a huge fan base & many many clans,they wont have any problem with marketing the game,i for one would love to get my hands on it,i have CoD & United Offensive and i have sure enjoyed them both,though i have mostly played the games online,i still haven't finished the single player mode,but i will soon hopefully..
Nice post mate!
 
I remember the time when COD was released. Everyone back then was talking about HL3 and D3 and all of a sudden, without much fanfare, there was this game that swept gamers off their feet.. I have played the demo (COD not COD2) and i liked it immensely.. never had the chance to play COD.. i'll try to get my hands on COD2 though..

Super news. thread rated
 
Looks kinda ugly if u ask me. Blocky models and low res textures. The bloom effect is overdone as well. I hope they improve the art when they release it. But then COD was all abt gameplay and graphics was secondary.

For a moment i thought it was undertaker's post. had to look twice before confirming that it is chaos and not him.
 
Woah! CoD and CodUO were two of my favorites. Brothers in Arms is good but, not that good. Hope CoD2 expands on the run and gun gameplay.
 
Am I the only but COD sucks big time, scripted game, with clunky movement and a very stupid storyline...

ME feel the same. Infact, I played COD with a frnd of mine who knew where the enemies are located etc etc, boring!!
 
ACES! If COD sucks! I dont know what games you play. accding to me its the best game available and beats the hell out of doom and half life. its more close to life. nearer to reality. and thats what i ask for. not some stupid shooting out aliens and monsters. its phenomenal . WW2 is my fav history topic cause of COD.

You go!! COD :)

Hey Udit,

Sorry to disagree but I did buy COD on your reccomendation and while it is a nice game, I did not find anything great abt it. Again, all of us have different tastes. I prefre having new and modern weapons like the M4A1 Carbine or the CV -47. I don't like the old weapons used in COD.

BUT WW2 is my fav history topic(along with a dozen others ;) ). But COD is not my fav game. I tried playing it in the past 1 week and I just didn't feel like playing it. I quit after a few mins. Went back to playing CS or posting on TE :ohyeah:
