Call of Duty: World at War - MP beta

can provide once i get home. 3 maps, many modes (no nazi zombies ;( )
one castle thingy, one battle arena style map (roundhouse) and a 3rd I can't remember atm. runs like butter just like the COD4 engine so ppl of all different PC setups should have no problems. don't know if the maps are any bigger than in COD4. I certainly hope so for the single player campaign.

Odd thing about CoD4 was the way it ran like utter dogshit for about a minute or so immediately after loading a map then was smooooof sailin' after.

I heard they are bringing vehicles back for this. I wonder if multiplayer will be anything like United Offensive.

They've made it 3rd-person?

Seems pretty cool - but IMO, it doesn't look as good (even though it's the same engine) as COD4 and doesn't seem to run as smooth. I also checked that the graphics settings were on max - to make sure that wasn't the problem. :erg:

Player movements seem a lil jerky and think if you played them back to back - IMO, you would think COD4 was the newer release. The guns also sound kinda wimpy - but seem to work well. Kinda reminded me more of a Medal of Honor game than COD4. :confused:

It is a beta though - so maybe they're holding some back in the demo - but wouldn't think so, seeing it's release is on 11/11.

Considering it's Treyarch I'm not suprised. I'm sure Infinity Ward's next entry in the series will be better performance-wise.

i don't have any issues with performance or animations. and they are WW2 weapons that sound pretty accurate. maybe it differs between systems, that would be a shame.
