Review
In a FPS game, players control of the character movement is very
important because that's what will determine whether the FPS games are
delicious and easy to play or not. In this game there are a few basic
movements, such as standing, crouching and prone, you also can tilt to
the left and right to peek without having to show the body to the enemy.
One of the unique movement that is you can take your opponent and throw
grenades back. In addition there are also new features never before
seen in Call of Duty series that ran previously. This feature is very
useful to avoid the enemy or move quickly when crossing so difficult for
enemies to shoot.
This time you will have many choices of weapons actually existing at
present, such as the M4A1, AK-47, G3, R700, MP5, RPD, Desert Eagle, USP
and others, also do not forget explosive weapons like rocket launcher,
grenade launcher, javelin , and others. Each weapon has different
characteristics that also has a plus minus of each. Not forgetting also
the player can activate the
night vision goggles to see clearly in
darkness.
Graph COD4MW very good. Engine from Infinity Ward called IW3 work with
the maximum, each object on the screen visible detail, the effects of
gunfire, explosions and other effects look extremely beautiful and real.
Features weather effect also plays an important role to build a real
atmosphere when you play this game. Although this game has beautiful
graphics, but this game is still mild even played on the PC with
specifications 'mediocre'.
The sound of this game was not as good when compared with the side of
the graph. The voice sounded very clear, the effects of gunfire and
explosions are very good, the sound of shots from each weapon has the
characteristics of each weapon so you can know what you're hearing. 3D
effects presented were very pronounced. When you play a multiplayer
mode, 3D sound effect that is helping you to find out where enemy
presence. Voice acting of each character was very good, not stiff, looks
like a Hollywood movie upscale. Very neat, is not rigid and sound
natural not artificial. So when you play, the NPC character who sounds
around you will also contribute to build an atmosphere that you
experience. Some sound effects are taken from previous Duty series Call
fo.
In this game, you can choose to play in Single Player Campaign or
Multiplayer. In single player mode, you will play six different
characters in each stagenya. As the series Call of Duty before, there
are two camps will you play, the first is the army SAS (Special Air
Service) and the second is the army USMC (United States
Marine Corps).
In this mode, there are various missions that must be completed at each
stage, the mission will continue to evolve with developments in these
stages. Examples such as finding people, into enemy territory, killing,
detonates and other tools. Players will be notified towards the goal of
the mission through the radar appears on the screen. When completing the
mission at each stage, players will always be accompanied by AI that
helped you in a shooting at the enemy.
Each stage presents a very exciting fight and very intense. The battle
occurred so that indoor and outdoor atmosphere of war actually feels
like a real war. The unrest that is felt would really make you feel how
hard to press forward on the battlefield. This is what makes CoD series
has always been the best war game of all time and managed to defeat the
Medal of Honor series. But unfortunately, the single player mode was
very fast finish, the story was so short, direct to
the heart of the
matter without any further ado.
As for multiplayer, Infinity Ward seems to further highlight this mode,
judging from the single player is very short. In mutiplayer mode,
players will really feel the new multiplayer experience. There are
several game modes, such as team deathmatch, free for all, Domination,
search and destroy, sabotage, and others. Each mode has a different
objective reply, so be sure you will not get bored playing this
multiplayer.
Overall, COD4MW is a very good game and exciting, both in single player
or multiplayer is so unique and interesting. Shot after shot in this
game really feel, so the excitement gained from playing was a new
experience of a war-themed FPS game. The story was very interesting,
powerful but easy to understand and the story was good disposition
methods. This game is very addictive, especially if you play it
multiplayer. Not one of these games to be the best game in 2007,
together with Super Mario Galaxy is the arch-rivals COD4MW at the time.
Kudos to Infinity Ward CoD series that always makes the best war FPS
game series of all time in every aspect.
