Getting rid of the create a class system and adding the new Division system in Call Of Duty WWII was a brave step. To be honest with you, while at first glance it may seem like a radical departure, it is very similar to what we have been used to for the last 10 years. Today though, we are taking a closer look at Airborne Division.
We really like the Airborne Division in Call Of Duty WWII. It offers you a kind of run and gun style of gameplay, but it is a little stealthier than what Infinitry Division offers. It is the Division Skill that makes this such a popular “class”. You see you can get a suppressor which hides your fire on the map, but at the result of losing a little accuracy, but if you are playing as Airborne Division to be more stealthy, it does not matter.
If you are the kind of player who likes to get in and out of a situation, Airborne Division is for you. Some of the other perks that are offered are about letting you run faster, longer and also allowing you to climb quicker. It is great for getting in, taking someone down quick and then getting out of there before their buddies realize what went wrong.
The Thompson M1928 is the primary weapon and with the suppressor, as you will be trying to get in and close, we really think this gun is fine for most people. Sure tinker around a little and see if another loadout suits you best. For us, though it is the way you move quickly and quietly more so than the actual loadout that makes Airborne Division one of the best classes in Call Of Duty WWII.
With Call Of Duty WW2 being out for over a month now, some of you who purchased just the standard version of the game may be ready for something new. You have probably completed the campaign, played each multiplayer mode to death and fought on each map so many times that you know them like the back of your hand. Season passes are the done thing in games these days and while it may be easy to point at the Call Of Duty WW2 season pass and say it is Activision being greedy, we do not actually think that it is.
The other day we covered how the first DLC for Call Of Duty WWII is called the Resistance Pack and it is offering a whole lot of content including new maps, a new War Mode scenario and much more. It is a great way that you can have some extra fun with this year’s Cal Of Duty game.
We think that before you pass it off as just a cash grab, think about how much you like Call Of Duty WWII and if you do really like the game, what harm is there in paying a little bit more to get content throughout the next year? The season pass actually gets you four new packs (including January’s Resistance Pack) and each one is bound to feature similar content so you are actually getting quite a lot of content for your money.
If you bought Call Of Duty WWII, beat the campaign, dabbled a little bit in the multiplayer and have not really touched it for a couple of weeks, the season pass is not for you. But if you still find yourself firing up the game a few times a week, maybe even daily. You will certainly feel that the Call Of Duty WWII season pass is giving you very good value for money.
Here we go again as we look at the next installment in the Rainbow Six series.
Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six 3 (2003/2004) Xbox, PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCubeRainbow Six was no stranger to console having appeared on PlayStation, Nintendo 64 and Sega Dreamcast. But this would be the series’ first entry on this generation of console. The game was originally released on the Xbox before making an appearance on the PlayStation 2 and GameCube the following year.
While this version is called Rainbow Six 3, you will notice the subtitle is missing. That is because the console versions are completely different to the PC. There is no complex planning of missions before you do them like in the PC version (which is one of the major things about the Rainbow Six series) and in general, the game has a much more action feel to it. The story was also very different to what the PC version offered. The rainbow team is sent to South America to investigate a series of terrorist attacks and soon finds out that it is the president of Venezuela who is behind them.
Players now only control one character, Ding Chavez who is the field commander of the Rainbow team. You can still dish out orders to the rest of the team, but you only have direct control of the one character. In general, this is a much more streamlined Rainbow Six experience. But while this sounds bad, Rainbow Six 3 on console is actually a very fun game in its own right, especially the Xbox version which got great reviews at the time. The PlayStation and GameCube versions of the game did not get quite as high review scores at the time.
