Activision has confirmed the newest instalment in the Call of Duty series will feature an online co-op mode for up to four players.
That goes for the Xbox 360, PS3 or PC versions, which will also offer two-player split-screen co-op. The Wii game will have its own "unique" two-player co-op mode.
According to the press release, the co-op campaign "allows players to rank up and unlock perks in competitive multiplayer by completing challenges and earning experience points".
Said experience points are collected whenever you're playing online, whether competitively or co-operatively. The game's difficulty level will "scale dynamically" according to your experience rank and the ranks of the people you're playing with.
Playing as a US marine or Russian soldier, you'll get to fight it out on battlegrounds in Europe and the South Pacific. And it's been confirmed you'll get to muck about with a flamethrower.
Call of Duty: World of War will be out in the autumn. Look out for a full preview soon.

Yeah but if we someone today were to make a proper WW2 game, rather than some linear checkpointing flag waving shite then I'd be interested.

Gasp. The first PC CoD which isn't going to have the British? They always seemed to get the best levels.
And here I wanted to try and hold Fort Sentosa from the Japanese War Machine. Still, pacific war...not bad. |

I do not mind having coop, since this was the one thing I was missing in the last-gen online gaming, but nowadays it usually means the same game, but now it is the two of us shooting the same enemy. What I miss is a more tactical approach, where coop has a point, like distraction, supressive fire, sniping etc with more freedom of movement. But this would not be causal enough.... |

Don't agree with those who claim the WW2 setting has been done to death.
I like FPS and buy a couple each year. New technology, new game engines, new gameplay elements mean that the WW2 setting seems pretty interesting to me still. Will definitely buy this. The Call Of Duty series is a geniune triple A product. |

(/sarcasm) World War 2 is over!? Really? (/sarcasm)
Computer gaming hasnt even scratched the surface of World War 2. They've overdosed on the push East towards Berlin from the D-Day landings, yes, but it was a world war ffs. You could make an original game based on the Battle of Monte Cassino and the push through Italy from Northern Africa, or the Scandinavian theatre, or Operation Barbarossa and the Eastern Front, or South-East Asia (Malaya, Singapore, etc), or if you wanted something completely different you could have a game based on the conflict between China and Japan during the 2nd World War. WW2 isnt done, boring, etc, and if it is, then its as boring as the 'send in special forces to depose evil *insert Russian/Arab/3rd world country* dictator before he goes nuclear' scenarios which count for the majority of modern shooters. |

Thank you.
Thank you for actually confirming it has split-screen co-op, instead of just ignoring that fact and only stating that online co-op will be available. See, believe it or not, a lot of people - me included - still prefer playing games in split-screen with friends in the same room, than over the internet. I didn't own CoD4, as military themed games aren't to my tastes, but my friends like the games, so at least now I'll be able to take part in the game via co-op.
