Call Of Duty WWII Multiplayer Maps Revealed
As you would probably expect, details of Call Of Duty WW2 are starting to leak (the game is like less than a day away at this point) which is not all that surprising. But there has been a bit of a negative response in regards to the amount of multiplayer maps that are available.
It has been revealed that the Call Of Duty WW2 multiplayer mode will have ten regular maps that can be used across the standard multiplayer modes. The maps that you can play on are Flak Tower, USS Texas, Gustav Cannon, Aachen, Gibraltar, London Docks, Pointe Du Hoc, Sainte-Marie-du-Mont and Ardennes Forest. Of course, people who have the digital deluxe version or the season pass will also have access to Carentan as well. To be fair at launch, ten maps is not that bad at all, but some people feel there should have been more.
The main bit of peoples issues with Call Of Duty WW2 multiplayer maps seem to be aimed at War Mode. We had a lot of fun with War Mode during the beta and are very excited to play the other maps, but there is only three! Operation Breakout, Operation Neptune, and Operation Griffin are the three maps that you can play on. To be fair War Mode is really in depth and a lot of work has gone into it, but will players get bored quickly with only three maps to play on? While there are only three maps it is important to remember that each map lets you play it from two points of view so there are actually six ways to play War Mode.
No doubt more maps are coming in the form of DLC, but we think that the regular maps are fine, but a couple more for War Mode at launch would have been great.
Thoughts On Call Of Duty WWII Campaign
So after hitting the local store to get my copy of Call Of Duty WWII at midnight, the campaign was the first thing that was put through its paces. A lot of people like to put down the COD campaigns, but I have always enjoyed them and the one Sledgehammer have put in Call Of Duty WWII so far from what I have played is fantastic.
You play the role of Private Red Daniels and you get to experience the horrors of World War 2 such as D-Day and going through the war torn parts of Europe. What really makes the story though is the interaction with the characters. There are some very well made cutscenes that drive the narrative and while the Nazi’s are the enemy. There is a clear tension between the troops due to the stress they are feeling, their fear and the horrors that they are experiencing. It is very well done and you could argue that it is the best written Call Of Duty campaign so far.
While there is a lot of emotion driving the story as Red and the squad is doing all they can to survive all the while trying their best to also do what they can to swing the war in the Allies favor. As you would expect, there are some epic action set pieces that look like something out of a Hollywood action movie, it is so well done that one minute you are kind of down as the cutscene may be kind of heavy, but then all hell is let loose and there is bullets flying, tanks, explosions and all other kinds of mayhem.
Many people will have picked up or downloaded their copy of Call Of Duty WWII and just jumped straight into multiplayer, but the campaign is well worth playing. It reportedly only lasts for about 6 hours so it is well worth getting into.
