Gamespy Interview About Patch and New Game Type
by twiztid, Friday, December 19, 2003 Comments(6)

Today, Gamespy is featuring an interview with Zied Rieke, lead designer for CoD's new multiplayer mode, called "Headquarters"

The interview sets a patch release for next week on FilePlanet, and does not mention what there will be for Anti Cheat in the patch.

Some highlights:

GameSpy: Can you describe the new "Headquarters" mode for us and any special new features, etc., that may be a part of it?

Zied Rieke: Headquarters is a team-based objective mode with respawning. A location in the map is randomly selected from a list of different places, and each team fights over that spot to hold it and set up their headquarters there. Once a team has set up a headquarters, they must defend it for 45 seconds. If they succeed, then they score big time, everyone respawns and they have to do it again. If they fail, then the attacking team scores points, everyone respawns, a new random location is chosen, and each team fights to set up their headquarters again.

GameSpy: What are some of the other major changes in the patch?

Zied Rieke: We've reduced how well you can bunny hop. We've made the sniper rifles more realistic to act more like how a real sniper rifle would behave. We made it so the number of grenades you start with is based on the weapon you select. We added unique player IDs, which are based on your CD key and made it so that server admins can ban players using that ID. We really changed too much stuff to list here, if you want to know more, check out the .readme.

Head on over to Gamespy to read the rest of the interview for more information on this interesting new game type.

Teamwarfare has expanded its Call of Duty ladder offerings to include 10 v 10 Search and Destroy. and 10 v 10 Team Death Match

Map Review - Fivepoints

Vertigo has just finished up a great review on BigBoyG's DM/TDM map Fivepoints. Here's a snippet:
The good thing about this map is that neither side has an advantage. BigBoyG obviously planned "Fivepoints" out well. It is sad that a lot of community-made maps get a bad rap for being unbalanced, because the few that are very well done get overshadowed by the excessive amounts of poorly made maps. But I am glad to finally see one that shines out above most.

International LaddersUp at ESL

-League Play

Sparkles from the Electronic Sports League writes that they haved up three new international CoD ladders.
After recently the german Call of Duty Ladders went to the start, we can present you now finally also international Call of Duty Ladders. At the beginning we start with 3 Ladders :

Call of Duty 1on1 Ladder National german Ladder is already since few weeks an absolute success and belongs to the TOP 1on1 Ladders. Over 250 players take to this part, we hope this on international level still to naturally exceed.

Call of Duty 3on3 Search & Destroy Ladder A quantity of players expressed the desire for these Ladder. In particular for small clan's which are still in the starting period should be this Ladder interesting.

Call of Duty Search & Destroy Ladder The probably most popular game mode, therefore it may not naturally be missing. Standard mode will be 6on6, but after arrangement with your opponent it is also possible the play in the 5on5, 7on7 or 8on8 mode.

More information and signups at ESL.

MoHI launches Call of Duty League

-League Play

League Administrator Thor from The Medal of Honor Online Invitational League writes that they have expanded their leagues to Call of Duty and revamped their system in the process. Read on for the official press release:
MoHI, formerly known as Medal of Honor Online Invitational League, was formed back in the summer of 2002 as a small invitation only league for Medal of Honor. Over that time MoHI has built up a great community and team base from which we've flourished from for one and a half years now, amazingly over the same game, MoH. MoHI has been looked upon as the league to be in if you are seeking true competition, and we’ve given just that by allowing only mature and respectable teams into the league. Our no BS policy has kept us the league we are, clean, fair, and honorable.

To the present, MoHI has decided to expand the league and evolve with the times, moving beyond the only previously offered game, MoH. We’ved the league up for Call of Duty, and for any other game out there we feel our community would enjoy participating in under the umbrella of MoHI. With this, MoHI has will know be known as Men of Honor Online Invitational League since we are expanding our horizons. Despite adding new games to the league, we are maintaining our invite only presence to ensure only the best competition out there.

This past Wednesday, Dec. 10th, wed our CoD S&D 7v7 ladder in the new league. We are always seeking respectful teams who are looking for the best competetion, so be sure to check out the revised league, completely reprogrammed for our expansion, over at www.mohoil.com/new

PCGamer Interview with IW
by BlackRider, Wednesday, December 10, 2003 Comments(6)
-callofduty

Tonight on irc, PCGamer interviewed Infinity Ward, the creators of Call of Duty. As usual, it was full of redundant questions that had been asked multiple times in other interviews. Although, we did learn one thing:

The SDK is not going to besource and will only be released to mod teams if IW feels necessary. This means that if you have a mod started with good potential, they may release the source to you. Otherwise, you're stuck with scripts which limit what you can do.

We didn't get a patch update nor did we learn anything about the Mac port. This interview was pointless, and when questions such as "<[PCGO]yeg> when is a dedicated server coming out for win32?" are asked, I find it hard to believe that the people at PCGamer have actually played the game. Stick to magazines guys, you seem to be doing well there.
