Disappointing After Call Of Duty 2

By Yahoo! Shopping User  Dec 26, 2006

Pros: Great graphics, sounds are improved over previous game

Cons: Lack of control, forced to watch scenarios

I found this game disappointing after playing Call of Duty 2. While the graphics are much improved and the sound effects are realistic, the game itself lacks the fun factor of Duty 2. You are literally guided through the game after being forced to watch scenarios involving the characters which have nothing to do with the game. In Duty 2, you could opt out/bypass all the hype and play the game. Duty 2 was much more independant game play where you had to figure things out, while Duty 3 literally points you to every feature. I did find the tank portion much more enjoyable in Duty 3 over Duty 2, but there are jeep driving portions that are truely annoying. All in all, I wouldn't buy this again unless the price came down about 50%. So, wait on this one.

Pros: outstanding shooting game

Cons: the game is a little expensive

As many of the past reviews has stated, the single player campaign is somewhat of a mixed bag compared to it's predecessor, Call of Duty 2. However, if you are mainly interested in this game for it's multiplayer features, you will find Call of Duty 3 a very worthy purchase.

I've played through the single player campaign and spent quite a few hours playing the multiplayer. I did have more fun with COD2's single player, but COD3 single player was still a blast. You still get that non stop action, with tons of soldiers around you that give you the feeling you are just another soldier among many, and not Rambo whos going to kill everyone yourself, but still makes you feel that you are making a big difference in the struggle.

I did wish there were a couple more scenarios where you operate the tanks. There are quite a few scenarios where you drive a jeep. They are pretty ho hum. Feels like the jeep is on rails. I think COD2 had a better balance and quality of vehicle missions.

Now for many FPS shooter fans, the single player is just an introduction to the main attraction, the multiplayer. And this is worth the price of admission. I've been playing online shooters for over a decade now, and COD3 online has been one of the most fun. With 24 people in a game, it really does feel like a war, not just 2 squads going against each other.

The classes seem pretty balanced and each offer their own unique gameplay. It's rewarding to revive fallen players and have them thank you. It feels good to pop a cap in a players head from many yards away as he's rushing for your flag. It feels nice to blow up a tank with the bazooka, as well as seeing another player get blown up by a mine you placed around your base. Lot's of variety will bring longevity to the game.

Even with many players, I have rarely experienced lag or disconnections. The maps are well designed and are just the right size, and so far the online community seems great. Definately far less immature gamers than you'll find in Halo 2.

Bottom line is, if you're mainly interested in the multiplayer, you can't go wrong with this game.

Pros: close-quarters battle mechanics Bring you face-to-face with your enemy. Fight hand-to-hand, disarm traps, improvise explosive devices, and execute a host of other battlefield challenges

Cons: NOWHERE TO HIDE

Background:
Through the keen eyes of four Allied soldiers, Call of Duty 3 brings players closer to the fury of combat as they fight through the Normandy Breakout, the harrowing offensive that liberated Paris and changed the fate of the world as we know it today.

Features:

ALL-NEW CLOSE-QUARTERS COMBAT
In a new feature for the Call of Duty series, close-quarters battle mechanics Bring you face-to-face with your enemy. Fight hand-to-hand, disarm traps, improvise explosive devices, and execute a host of other battlefield challenges that require cunning and swift reflexes.
1. NOWHERE TO HIDE
Environmental physics let you destroy enemies’ soft cover hideouts, such as wooden walls, barrels and crates—forcing your foes out in the open. But watch out—they can eliminate your protection as well.
2.CHOOSE YOUR PATH TO VICTORY
Flank your opponent, or hit him head on. Next-generation level design provides multiple attack routes that let you decide how to confront the enemy. Each choice you make requires you to use special tactics, from sniping and demolition to straight out frontal assaults.

3. UNPRECEDENTED COMBAT OPTIONS
Execute parachute drops, armored assaults or SAS commando raids. Riddle battlefields with tank shells and explosives. Drive tanks to topple barricades and invade enemy emplacements.

4. TEAM-BASED MULTIPLAYER WITH VEHICLES
Intense multiplayer functionality has been built from the ground up. Up to 24 players can battle it out as a variety of player classes, including riflemen, infantry, scouts, and others. Multiple-occupancy vehicles let you coordinate attacks with friends, driving while they fire a mounted machine gun from the turret. The game's wide range of vehicles include tanks, jeeps and motorcycles with sidecars.
