Treyarch: World at War to focus on multiplayer thanks to CoD 4 |

What can we expect from Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, PC, Wii, DS) come November 11? Everything from CoD 4's multiplayer. Only better. And with tanks. At least, that's what Call of Duty 5 senior producer Noah Heller promises.
"I think what [Modern Warfare's success] did most of all is emphasize multiplayer to us," said Heller in a recent interview with CVG. "Our multiplayer's definitely built off CoD4 because it was an excellent platform to build off," he explained.
CoD5 will sport the stat-collecting online mode, perks and all the good stuff that made CoD4's multiplayer experience so enjoyable. In addition, there will be vehicles (something I would have loved to have in Modern Warfare), a co-op mode and a number of other tweaks that are supposed to bring World at War's multiplayer mode into a class of its own (for example, it takes now just one center-mass shot to kill rather than three or four).
Heller continued on the newfound emphasis on mutiplayer that the CoD series seems to be taking:
In the olden days of CoD you had multiplayer and you had single-player and they never meet. CoD 4 was a multiplayer sensation so it was very important that we focused on multiplayer and that we got a chance to show our own multiplayer.
Sounds good, but I can't shake the feeling that I'll just be buying an updated Battlefield 1942 with CoD5... not that that's a bad thing, mind you.

at first i was like great cod5, but then ww, mm have to see some screens, saw screens must say quite dissapointing, friend got beta, told me it was good started warming to it, but its uses the same engine, and cod4 gameplay was great theres not much more they can do apart from levels/maps, which can all be supplied by DLC (the usual rip)
but saw the zombie trailer WOW
now this, it seems like cod4 only worse, i dont care but if tanks are in sabotage or headquaters, ill stick to cod4, vehicles always ruin a game, halo being an exception
also i think because theyre focusing on online, they make a decent online, but worse than cod4, and a god awful campaign,
balance its all about balance, good campaign amazing online
online for me comes first, but story comes staright after it
