Heller: World at War will have better multiplayer than CoD4

Activision senior producer Noah Heller supported Treyarch‘s claims of Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, DS) superiority over all previous CoD titles. Heller expressed confidence in World at War and outlined what they’ll be adding to its multiplayer mode to set the bar even higher for the series.

Bold claim. That’s all I can say. Bold claim.

There’s been some rather harsh skepticism leveled at developer Treyarch‘s idea that Call of Duty: World at War (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, DS) will be superior to all other CoD titles.

And why not? It sounds presumptuous in the extreme to say that they can do anything to top Call of Duty 4 (Xbox 360, PS3)on either the singleplayer or multiplayer front.

Activision senior producer Noah Heller has Treyarch’s back, however, and supports their seemingly inflated notions about CoD 5.  “I think it feels much better than any Call of Duty I’ve had a chance to play,” he said.

In an interview with Videogamer.com about what CoD 5 is going to be doing for its multiplayer, he said that they mostly asked themselves what can be added to CoD 4 to make it even better?

For one, they’ll be adding a Co-op mode to rake in even people who normally don’t play multiplayer. Tanks will also make an appearance, as will squad options, like choosing to be a squad leader and then setting waypoints for your teammates. You can revive teammates now and play with nerve gas and signal flares (does anyone else think think this is starting to sound like Battlefield: CoD). Some of the more popular game modes from the other CoD‘s will be brought back, such as “War.”

Heller also noted a number of minor tweaks that should improve the overall feel and solidity of the experience. New weapons with new attachments, a raised level cap and new or modified perks, just to name a few.
