.MAP Call of Duty

I didn't mention what CoD4 includes since GameSpy and IGN already got that all covered, no sense in wasting people's time reading stuff they've already read.

If I find more articles on the event I'll link them here.

Thanks for the info.
It's good to know that learning Radiant for COD 2 will be usefull to map in COD 4.

The engine & it's features sound massively outdated... IW never seem to put any effort into their games lately... They're just run of the mill shooters with mediocre graphics running on an outdated engine... Things such as full dynamic lighting & shadows have been the standard in games for a long long time yet the "updated" CoD2 engine is nothing more than the Q3 engine with some graphical tweaks & a few extra features... Compare CoD4 to any other upcoming game & it's hugely outdated, not to mention that from what I can gather from in-game preview footage it's heavily scripted... Heavy scripting does nothing for gameplay & just makes each level the same each time you play it which not only removes replay value altogether but stands miles behind most current games which are using proper AI... IW really need to get with the times...

CoD, UO and CoD2 were largely MP games, thus the fact that the SP missions were very scripted doesn't really matter.. I think the same will go for 4.. you play the SP missions once.. and then go kill online.

It being a scripted game is actually a good thing, because it means it's probably easier to mod.

And who cares about full dynamic lighting... I don't mind if that shadow in the far distance is compiled into the engine or not.. as long as the shadows I can actually see around me are dynamic I'm a happy camper.
