So today I was lucky enough to receive my COD:World at War beta key and I must say I came away pretty pleased. This version of COD has been getting a lot flack due to the fact that Treyarch Studios are the developers this time around instead of Infinity Ward. I think most of the negativity comes from the sub-par COD 3, which wasnt all that bad to begin with.
So with COD 4 battling it out with Halo 3 for the number spot on Xbox Live week after week, you would think that COD:WAW wouldn't stand a chance at cracking the the #1 spot. Think again ! As far as the beta is concerned the multiplayer is spot on with COD 4 and brings with it a fresh coat of paint.
The first thing your gonna notice is uh ...your back to WWII. With that come of course new maps and weapons. Your perks are all intact with a enough changes to make it feels fresh. Gone are the helicopters, but they have been replaced with lets say a good friend. Plus in total Treyarch fashion the addition of vehicles along with the their own perks are more then welcomed.
I think this game is going to to gain a lot of respect from the hardcore Call of Duty crowd looking for something new. With what's already looking like a great campaign with 4 player coop online and and the good old COD4 engine pushing it as well as the multiplayer, COD:WAW looks to have every chance to earn that #1 spot on live ...at least once anyway.
