I was not fully impressed with the new release of Call of Duty2.  It was 6 disks long, and tagged a high price.  One would expect a great improvement over the original CoD, and its great sucessor United Offesive.  CoD2 was a let down for me.  I thought I would get an overall improvement and change over the original idea.  But it wasn't.  Weapons did not work like in CoD.  The Thompson lost it's unique kick, with high slugging impack, and the rifle it's 'knock-out' fire power and high accuracy.  The A.I. of the enemy was way-off.  I began the game on regular difficulty to help make it more challenging, but sometimes the germans would catch you right on and fall down like mannequins.  When a game is not challenging, there is no thrill in playing it.  Millitary tactiques are nothing but challenging and complex.  The game makes it too easy.  Overall CoD2 is again a very fun.  Graphics have been improved slightly, added features and mult-paths. (This will slow the game down on old machines.  I had some trouble running it on a p4 2.6 Mhz dual with nVidia 6200, and it did run slow).  With all the work they are doing with the game, one would think they would improve the A.I. and overall game, but they didn't. I am becoming more of a Brother's in Arms fan now.  I think it has more Realism and better A.I. Far Cry is the best for A.I.  You'd think they'd borrow from each other and improve.  I hope this review was helpful.
