Announcement Straight from TreyArch: Call of Duty: Vietnam Release

That's not true, and even if it was, CoD has historically let you play as the Russians, who were "trash" compared to the Germans at least on a kill ratio.

yes they were. they did not fight any huge offenses because their morale and trainign were so bad.

And the kill ratio in Russia v. Germany is highly exaggerated and improved vastly once they had real generals and proper armaments.

Just like by the end of the war and vietnamization the ARVN was doing all the lifting and not too shabbily. According to wikipedia something like a million ARVN soldiers died in the war. That's a much bigger contribution than the US, even if they were pound for pound less successful. Also according to the wiki article on the ARVN, they basically invented the way armored cavalry fights from AFVs. I don't know why you have a problem with the Vietnamese but it's pretty dumb.

What happened after the Us left. All the important things were done by the US. I have nothing against vietnamese people the NVA were excellent fighters and the Vietnamese propaganda campaign was pure genius. They had some good leaders and very good american equipment and decent training, but their morale was poor and as a whole they were poorly led.

And none of that affects gameplay in a CoD game.

Speaking of Surrfin Bird, I hope they have an orchestra for music, I'm tired of Nam games always having 60's tunes. Nothing wrong with the music, I just want a proper sound track to a game, not a radio station playing the top 50. You don't see WWII games with a 40's sound track to them.

[Fragony]

Awesome. Count me amongst the crowd who says Tryarch > IW. I like the war is hell approach of WaW better then the war is cool of the Modern War's. Really raw and grittty I still crinch when I get get to say hi to a bayonet. Shooting is so satisfying because you really destroy them. Tearing someone to pieces with a LMG leaving only a bloody pulp never gets old.

Will you be able to surf at Charlie's Point?

Hehehe, Charlie don't surf.

I love the smell of rumors in the morning!

It's virtually assured to sell in America which is important and there will of course be massive arguements in the backroom and the monastery on the winning or losing of said conflict.

Battlefield Vietnam multiplayer was a lot of fun back in the day, this should be too. I'll definitely buy this one myself.

It's called mood & game immersion. I grew up during that era, and listening to that music played ala "Good Morning Vietnam" 60's & 70's DJ radio style really enhances the realism. The old BF Vietnam game one could turn on the radio in any vehicles you were driving and play a selection of music from that time. Tactically foolish because your online opponents could hear you coming, but cool nonetheless.
