That and female French Resistance fighters, who did actually fight. People joke the French for surrendering quickly, but the French Resistance was pretty bad ass.
I'm so glad that Call of Duty decided that adding diversity to their character list was a priority.
If you specifically want to know all the game's diversity (feel free to discuss this without using spoiler tags in the thread): "Other characters appear including female resistance fighters, a soldier in an African-American unit (the U.S. Army was still segregated in WWII), a British officer and even a child."
I wish Activision would just pull the plug on this series already
No jetpacks? Damn, color me surprised.Pretty skeptical about CoD campaigns, though. They've been garbage since like MW2, tailored for people with attention spans the size of a peanut. And the trailer didn't really grab me all that much: more of the same, but prettier. Still hopeful for the multiplayer though.It still interests me a lot more than the last 10 years of fucking tacti-l33t Robocops running around with blunts painted on their guns.
Nobody bitched about it then, maybe it was because CoD wasn't as big as it is now.
You guys realise it's still going to be the same run 'n' gun tacticool shooter with a WW2 skin? Right?

People joke the French for surrendering quickly, but the French Resistance was pretty bad ass.I was under the impression that for most of the occupation the various resistance organizations were largely fighting against each other and it wasn't until Britain got them to do a variety of coordinated sabotage missions behind the German lines on D-Day that they actually got anything of use for the allies done.
I dont know if I like that they are removing auto health regen. It's it's Call of Duty, I buy these games for a simple shoot-em-up. If I actualy wanted realism I could play ARMA, or do something productive and join the actual millitry. Who knows, maybe this will be a massive improvement, like somehow breaking the cancerous meta of perma-baserape that has become synonymous with the series.Well I guess Black Ops 2 will always exist.

To be honest, my most hated thing in CoD is the fact that they do not allow you to go anywhere.I remember playing Advanced Warfare, Exposition stage (AKA level 1), I decided to see what is going on a side path, there seemed to be some soldiers there and some action - I go there and get insta-meme'd on and the game tells me "You left the mission area"SERIOSULY?! SERIOSULY?!!! I shut the game off and never came back to it.

Apparently not. Not only is there no exploration - THE GAME KILLS YOU FOR TRYING TO LOOK AROUND!

Not only is there no exploration - THE GAME KILLS YOU FOR TRYING TO LOOK AROUND!Why are you expecting CoD to be anything else other than linear?Liner is fine - but c'mon, I stepped away literally 10 meters. It also looked like I could just go there, its an open street with people around, I wanted to see what is going on there.The artists and mappers clearly put effort into building an environment so I wanted to check it out - instead got taken straight out of the immersion and penalised for trying to feel more involved.I'm sorry for forgetting that COD is basically the player being a camera-man riding a mine-cart while shit is happening all around you.
CoD: WW2 is a thing now
