Call of Duty (released October 29, 2003) is a first-person shooter video game based on the Quake III: Team
Arena engine. This war game simulates the infantry and combined arms warfare of World War II. The game was
published by Activision and developed by Infinity Ward.
Call of Duty is similar in theme and gameplay to Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, and like the latter includes
various single player campaigns and missions. However, unlike Medal of Honor, the war is seen not just from the
viewpoint of an American soldier but also from the viewpoint of British and Soviet soldiers, and the fact that
you can aim down the sight instead of using cross hairs.
The game is somewhat unusual in that throughout the single-player mode, the player is joined by
computer-controlled allies who range in quantity from two infantrymen (in some of the British missions) to an
entire regiment of tanks (in the Soviet missions). The computer-controlled allies will support the actual
player during the missions (notable in this is the AI's effectiveness compared to other games like Medal of
Honor). They also further the game's goal of providing a truly immersive and realistic experience; that is,
soldiers in World War II were usually part of a larger group, as opposed to the "lone wolf" seen in video games
such as Wolfenstein 3D. However, ironically, despite the game slogan 'No One Fights Alone', there are countless
levels which see you set off by yourself without any comrades. This was most notable in the British and Russian
campaigns.
The American campaign begins with Pvt. Joey Martin of the U.S. 101st Airborne Division parachuting into France
as a pathfinder of the 101st Airborne Division on D-Day for the Battle of Normandy, echoing the HBO miniseries
Band of Brothers. The series continues with a night assault on the town of Sainte-Mère-Église after reuniting
with his squadmates, a defense of the town against a counter attack by German Panzer units, the Brécourt Manor
Assault, two special missions to rescue captured British officers.
The British campaign begins with Sgt. Jack Evans of the British 6th Airborne Division and Special Air Service,
assisting in the capture of Pegasus Bridge, as seen in The Longest Day, sabotage the German battleship Tirpitz
and ends with a sabotage mission of a V-2 rocket base. Evans also sabotages anti-air defenses single-handedly
around the Eder Dam, in preparation for a follow up Dambusters Raid (Operation Chastise).
The Soviet campaign begins with the Battle of Stalingrad, first with weaponless scenes very much reminiscent of
the opening of Enemy at the Gates, a 2001 movie about the battle, then simulating close combat in an
underground sewer system and a recreation of the battle for Pavlov's House through the eyes of Pvt. (later
promoted to Sgt.) Alexei Ivanovich Voronin in the 13th Guards Rifle Division and 150th Rifle Division. The
Soviet campaign continues with the liberation of Poland, followed by a role as a tank commander. The Soviet
campaign ends as an infantry soldier in Berlin with the raising of the Soviet flag above the ruins of the
Reichstag. After raising the Soviet flag, a short video of the aftermath of the War is shown.
Actors Jason Statham and Giovanni Ribisi, as well as voice actor Steven Blum, provided voice-overs for the
roles of Sgt. Waters (British), Pvt. Elder (American) and Cpt.Foley (American), respectively. Michael
Giacchino, who previously worked on the Medal of Honor franchise, composed the soundtrack.
Call of Duty also featured "shellshock" (not to be confused with the psychological condition of the same name),
where when the player is close to an explosion, his vision is blurred, the player and time moves slower, and
sound is muffled, similar to some scenes in the movie Saving Private Ryan. " |
