Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Who do u guys think well be the best game of the year. I vote for BIA (ya i know COD rocks but listen out) BIA u can have a only 2 LIVE ppl on ur team but thats ok...and each LIVE person controls 3 AI squad memebers. That;s pretty neat. JUst leave a comment on what you think well be better.

COD Fan ALL THE WAY ! but maybe not now....LoL

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

CoD isnt new, so it wont be game of the year.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Hmm, because I've didn't play Biay yet ;) I can't judge which is better... There's only one way to find that put, and that is to wait, wait and wait...

But my guess is Bia.. Though Call of Duty 2 also looks good...

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

BiA has a while, as does CoD2.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

i think BIA would be a better success. it doesnt display an arcade-ish game, which is..to say the least..different from anythignelse. tactic's are more important...in this game

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

All i know is that I'm gonna play both games...

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

:ditto:

I think that the main difference between Brothers In Arms and Call of Duty (with the exception of somewhat different gameplay) is going to be a majorly improved graphics engine, although I have yet to find out for sure.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

depends on multiplay for me,

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

i think both cod 2 and brothers in arms will be cool.i have a feeling brothers in arms might be better

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

CODUO will not be the game of the year because it is too old allready. If you meant COD2 than I don't expect that to be comming out in 2005 either. I haven't got BIA yet but I will play it at one time and see what it is all about. I'm not particulary fond of the mp-bot-tactics-thingy but it has other qualities I'm looking forward too. (graphics, storyline, emotions, gore)

I also have a question myself: Doesn't Filefront support BIA with a Forum and a website? (that would be a shame)

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Ive already asked for them to do that putting forward my requests to jamie and asking in general feedback, so far i dont think there is any plans for one, but im pretty sure they are always open for suggestions

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

BiA,hopefully more teamwork than CoD. I see on the front part of the CoD box "In war,no one fights alone" when I find myself going rambo in some missions. That was also Randy Pitchford's opinion on CoD in an interview if I remember it correctly.

And I thought each live player controls 6 soldiers(2 teams consisting of 3 ppl each):
3 people Assault team
3 people Fireteam

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

This is a good thread. I think that BIA will be a bit better, although I don't know a lot about COD 2 yet. I have a question too... does anyone know if in BIA you get to jump out of the plane? Like in cod, you are from an airborne group but u dont acually get to jump out of the plane(or watch a movie of it). Will you get to in BIA? Thanks,
Bartender

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

I got BiA and found it to be very poor nothing that I expected @ all, don`t get me wrong the graphics are great but multi-player is poor very much so to much like single player maybe if they bring out a tdm gametype then I will install it again for a second look. As for game of the year Call of Duty 2 will be hands down if release date is this year.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

I think cod2 will be poor too :(

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

BiA was decent, but 2 vs 2 multiplayer is a joke.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

... 2 v 2? :wtf:

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

so you only play 2vs2

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Yes, BiA can only be played with 2vs2 (or less) "real" players. The rest of the players (8 in total if u play 2vs2) are controled by the AI and players, like in singleplayer.
I've been playing BiA for a few days now and singleplayer is frekin intense, aspecialy when you turn of your crosshair and enemyindicators. But I think I'm not going to play MP cause of the bots and stuff. Maybe play it with a friend on two pc's next to eachother but that's about it.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

CoDUO is better but BiA is great too. The gameplay in BiA is weird and I have to get use to it but it's a really fun game.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Im working on a mod to make more than 2 vs 2 allowed in multiplayer. just wish they would hurry up with the goddam SDK so my work will be alot quicker and easier to do.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

i thought cod was more adventurous... the maps and missions were more imaginative
and the textures in cod were better despite cod's engine bein a lot older

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

CoD is already game of the year.. and yes.. CoD all the way.. it pwns you.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

to what i heard, there are a crapload of hackers in BiA. :(

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

I played bia and it sucks compared to coduo. Someone said coduo is old. It just came out last september i think which is actually new to me. Coduo owns it in every way except strategy. :)

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

i liked the single player missions in BIA but i think that the multiplayer online in CoDUO is the best.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

I think CoD/CoD: UO is better than BiA.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

You may thinking it, but I know for sure http://forums.filefront.com/images/smilies/winkx.gif

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

I like BiA it is so realistic, its awesome but the only thing is the multiplayer suucks

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

u think Bia is better, but i do like CoD

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

I"M CALL OF DUTY FOR LIFE! If I'm playing BiA, it's only for the XBOX.:rolleyes:

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

fook that, its CoD all the way! wether on on the xbox or on the internet.. bia suxxor.. and will never be bia.. is suxxor.. only nubs and dumb hackers play bia.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

I have heard from a reliable source that the Quake 3 engine has been dumped completely and IW has purchased licsence rights for the Doom 3 engine and they are building a game engine from the ground up with the use of some of the Doom 3 code along with the Havoc physics engine from HL2 for COD2, understand it is just something I have heard and no concrete evidence has been released yet, but if it is true we will have D3 quality graphics mixed with HL2 physics, that would ROCK!!!! And from the previews I have read COD2 is going in a direction that will knock BIA off it's feet possibly for good.

Well thats about the most ignorant thing I have heard, Half-Life was nothing new when Half-Life 2 won game of the year.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

If everything you said is true, than I will be in heaven http://forums.filefront.com/images/smilies/eekx.gif

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Heres to hoping.......:beer:

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Thats pretty ignorant fo you to say that.
...Did you even read my post? I said Call of duty (CoD), what makes you think that I'm saying that, because CoD is not new, CoD2 won't be Game of the Year? I'm not.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

I have played brothers in arms for xbox and it was entertaining yet i still love my CODUO :). the gameplay in COD is much smoother and in BiA it is too hard to aim well. Just my opinion :)

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Multiplayer:
BiA max of 2v2
COD+COD:UO max of 32v32

That's saying something.

Single player of BiA is AWESOME... For a while, then the novelty wears off and you realise why you never hit anything... You try it online once and after 5 mins you leave.

TBH the only similarity between them is WWII, they are different types of games.

But if I had to, UO wins by miles.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Myself I would vote Brothers in Arms, its single player is something special in own ways:

You dont actually do "anything important", like capture Berlin, or steal Enigma codes and do other herostuff, and thats why the SP is quite realistic as you dont do something "heroic" in the game, and also that it has it own aspect. The cover system (that if you are behind obstacle, and your elbow is only visible and someone shoots to it, it wont hit, but if you put your head up and then someone shoots you, you notice soon that youre lying on the ground) is also very well made, makes it alot diffrent than CoD and MoH style shooting ranges (yes, even CoD has movie-style aspect and MoH is just fun, they still are mostly shooting ranges). Also when you turn all possible helps off from BiA, you actually get a feeling you are there, also the characters were unbeliavably well made, like I did myself like the Coles charge in the one mission (CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEE!), where he did ran in middle of heavy enemy fire leading people to fight, and also there were some really funny moments, like the how they welcome enemy Airborne way, and also BiA has alot of good moments in game.

But as for multiplayer, it is fun with some friend. Public games wont work so well but it is really fun with a friend, and one good reason is that it is original. Atleast you dont need to write in team say that why people are so stupid and dont do that and that and that and that lbalbalbla, you simply command your AI team and they dont whine and do stupid things :lol:

CoD is good game in many ways, but I like BiA more.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

There both very diffrent games. However, you run extremely slow in Bia. I mean Bia was o-k but not as fun as I thought.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

First of all lets get a few things straight, If you are speaking of COD 1 it has already won Game of the Year so what does that have to do with the present day? Anyone with half a brain knows that it cannot win again. Second, are you asking a question or making a statement? --->(CoD2 won't be Game of the Year?) Third, your not what? ignorant? :moon:

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Someone doesn't understand sentence structure. :p

You could assume that I am not saying what is bolded, to make things simple.

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

AnemicCrayon - it was pretty clear what Praetorian was saying - the original COD could not be Game of the Year again. I don't think he ever came close to implying that COD2 could'nt be GOTY.

Furthermore AnemicCrayon, I would point out that you are coming dangerously close to being offensive in your intermations - and to a Moderator of this very forum!!!! Brave man to cross swords with the Mighty Praetorian!!! :D

huh :confused: :wtf:

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

I had to re-read the sentence because a few added words/letters and some punctuation would disolve any misunderstanding.

"What makes you think that I'm saying that? Because CoD is not new, that CoD2 won't be Game of the Year?"

My apologies. ;)

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

OMG - u missed my whole point because of a spelling mistake. I should have used intimation - that is 'implication', 'suggestion', 'inference' etc.

But the main point you've glossed over coz you know you're just being pedantic.

Now grow up m8

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

OMG I got the whole point, take a chill, I was just pointing out that there is no such word. I love it when people get worked up over nothing. :cya:

I wasn't doing any of the above I was asking questions you should learn to use proper terms with your sentences, using big ones improperly can tend to make you look ignorant. :lol:

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

My god man - you are sooo up yourself and anal-retentive. I'm not going to get into a flaming session with you because you're not worth it, but suffice it to say you just proved that I knew in the first place what the word 'intimation' meant. I wrote that you came dangerously close to 'hinting' that Praetorian was ignorant with your question 'you're not what? ignorant?'. This is an innuendo - i.e. an 'intimation', a 'hint' that he IS ignorant.

I suggest that before you go poking fun at people you read what they write before you do it. But maybe you really are as dumb as you seem and you've missed it coz you're thick. Crying shame!!

Now, as I say, I'm not going to get into a war of words with you. Mainly because I don't cross wits with an unarmed man. But also because I know that you won't have a mouth left once that Gorilla wants his arse back.

Btw, I see that you've only made a couple of posts in this forum. You've not got off to a good start if you ask me by upsetting people. What have you been reading? 'How to Win Friends and Influence People'?

Re: Brothers In Arms vs Call Of DUty
 

Read back smart guy I asked a question followed by a question because the lack of punctuation in his sentence left it open to suggestion so I was hinting at nothing I simply asked a question so who is the thick one here? <----that is a question btw in case you get confused. So if your not going to get into a war of words then why did you? <---- Another question, kind of hypocritical isn't it? <---- yet another question. Oh and the amount of posts a person makes has nothing to do with if they have a voice or an opinion or not. lastly I'm not really concerned about popular opinion, I replied to Praetorian and he replied back I realized that he was asking something different then what I under stood it to be, then you stuck your nose right up into something that had nothing to do with you and now your flaming me because you decided to involve yourself into it, Kind of intrusive isn't it? <---- you should know what this means by now. :cya: So go ahead and call names you only make yourself look daft. Look, see all my intimations? <---- We don't need to go there again.
