    get Cod 4 if you like decent weapons and more action. get Cod 5 if you're more into the world war "ancient" crappy type weapons, and where the maps are so big u spend half the time running around just trying to find someone. Trust me, i have both of them, gave Cod 5 a good run but it just doesn't even come close to 4 imo.

    im playing cod4 now mostly but i switch it up from time to time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 328 ✭✭Codofwar


    I still play both equally, Cod 4 is still brilliant and i love the modern weaponry and so on as the name suggests, Cod 5 imo is also a brilliant game, personally the big maps are a nice addition although when I started playing first and didn't know my way around the maps I was lost for a while trying to find people to shoot me, (I was rubbish at the start, getting a bit better now) My recommendation to you would be if you can afford it buy both. They are totally different imo as modern warfare and ww2. either way I think you will enjoy.

    playing call of duty 4 until i reach leve 10 prestige..on level 6 at the moment, once i've finished i'll prob pick up WAW unless modern warfare 2 is out by then..

    still think 4 is the better game!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,405 ✭✭✭Lukker-


    CoD4.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,969 ✭✭✭christophicus


    Modern Warfare, not combat :P .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    World at War, addicted to the Eastern Front levels on War mode. Awesome.

    Haven't played COD4 in a few months, probably won't play it again to be honest. Not online anyway, might give the SP a 'proper' whirl when I've loads of time over the summer.

    Having said that, I also said that about SOF2 and it's now 5 years later. :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,857 ✭✭✭Valmont


    COD4. Especially now that I admin one server so I get to kick people and shout the rules out and say noob all I want. Never had a power trip before so I'm enjoying this one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,042 ✭✭✭spooky donkey


    I had a feeling this might turn into a COD4 is better than COD5 thread.
    What im really wondering is witch game has the most lasting power.
    SHould I buy a game thats our over a year or the new game.
    Looking at todays Xfire stats its seems that COD 4 has a longer life span even year later.

    Times played in Minutes.....

    World of Warcraft 6,077,379
    Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Multiplayer 3,971,802
    Call of Duty 2 Multiplayer 2,805,942
    Counter-Strike: Source 991,380
    Call of Duty: World at War Multiplayer 759,600

    Seems even COD2 has more life left in it than COD5.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    I think it depends on which genre you prefer. I liked COD4 a lot and played it online daily even though I was never terribly interested in modern conflict games, but now that World at War's out I haven't played it in ages and probably won't again, because I prefer the WW2 genre. It looks better, is grittier, and feels better then COD2 as well, which I went back to out of interest and found quite lacking online - it feels too....arcade for want of a better word.

    If you're not genre specific, then yeah hands down COD4 is the better game - I doubt anyone would say otherwise. If you have an inkling for WW2 shooters though, World at War is excellent and for me, more enjoyable then COD4 (and a good progression from COD2). Not because it's inherently a better game but just as a preference.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada


    the whole WW2 thing is one of the reasons i wasnt mad on previous COD games, im still playing COD modern warfare and had a bash at the new one, didnt really like it much.,


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    COD4 PS3.

    Game I still play the most along with FIFA.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,435 ✭✭✭wandatowell


    COD:WAW for me, but if cod:waw wasnt released id still be happily playing COD4 and loving it. you cant beat COD multiplayer.

    Hate those B@stards who are exploiting the faults in the maps in WaW tho

    cod2 revival going on atm coz its a better game then cod4 competitive wise, even if it is riddled with hackers

    What faults? I play a good bit but haven't really noticed anything...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,042 ✭✭✭spooky donkey


    Well i havent really played it but I hear there is a map where players can get under the map, a well known glitch and its abused a lot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,559 ✭✭✭LD 50


    ^^^That happens in MW too. They can get above you, run around on an invisible ceiling and shoot till then run out of ammo. Haven't come across many people that do this though.

    Totally agree. new maps are great but the nerds with all the glitches hiding under maps and in walls call be very annoying especially in harcore when its hard to notice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭Adriatic


    In Roundhouse and castle there is a glitch to get under the map and in Airfield theres a floating glitch where youy float to the top of the map.

    Funny I might have taken Steph up on that offer, and I wouldent have thought to go look on adverts.ie for a copy of COD.

    cod2 still , dont like cod4 or cod5


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,277 ✭✭✭✭Rb


    I've mainly been playing MW on the PS3, I gave WAW a good go but haven't really gotten into it...it's just not that great.

    Am now migrating to MW on the PC tomorrow hopefully, providing Play ship as expected because the online setup on PSN is appalling.

    Give CoD4 a go on the PC! You'll love it! Forget about WaW altogether IMO... Especially on PC!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,300 ✭✭✭CiaranC


    Played COD3 to death on 360, got COD4 recently and played it a fair bit. The (standard) maps are too small for my liking its all too CQB and rushed.

    Are the DLC maps any bigger?

    Old School! Tried giving CoD1 and CoD2 a go the other day (they were still installed on my old HDD that I have as a slave!) but I need the CD-Keys for them... And the games are in the attic...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 309 ✭✭Decerto


    cod2, in my eyes most funnest/addictable fps game ive ever played + it has a nice skill curve unlike cod4


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,918 ✭✭✭Steffano2002


    CoD1 was better than CoD2 in my opinion. Yeah the graphics are poo compared to CoD2 & 4 but it was so accurate it was unreal!

    Back then you could get a proper headshot with one bullet with on MP44 and it felt so bloody satisfying! And the Kar98K was the dog's bollix! What a game!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    I tried to go back to COD2 as well a while back and while the graphics are still very good the game itself (in terms of MP) feels a bit too simple. I much prefer World at War. Though I prefer the Normandy themed levels in COD2.

    It just seems to be that anyone who doesn't have a preference doesn't like it, but those who prefer WW2 titles (like me) generally love World at War.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,688 ✭✭✭Nailz


    World At War at the moment, actually enjoying the large maps.

    if you ever played any fps game at any fairly decent level, you would know its the simplicity of any fps game which makes it good, look at css, its based on aim/gamesense not some dumb**** perks which if the game was gonna be played competitively in any way would be modded out anyway, game looks **** and is way to hardware demanding for what it offers + it still isnt a finished version with patches coming out releasing things that should of been there from the start. Look at the cod community atm, everyone plays cod4 yet since the begining mods have been coming out to make it more and more like cod2

    COD WAW but still have COD & COD2 installed the only CODS for a LAN IMO. :pac:

    I'm playing it as well, the single player at the moment. It's brilliant, miles better then SP in COD4 in my opinion. Very cinematic. Might play it on live, though I doubt it when I've World at War on my PC.

    I've been playing COD4 on PC for a few days now and I have to say it is so, so, so, so much better than the PS3 version.

    Even in terms of the amount of ****ty campers populating TDM/HTDM the PC version absolutely kicks PS3s ass.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 129 ✭✭Elonex


    PLaying COD4, I hate World of War. Maps are too big IMO.
