Call of Duty 4 maps coming to PC June 5
Filed under: PC, First Person Shooters


Those on active virtual duty in Call of Duty 4 have seen combat in all manner of locales during their tours -- though earlier this year, their theater of operations saw a major expansion with the "Variety" map pack, allowing them to get their war on in four new exotic, terrorist-rich locations. Unfortunately, these lush warzones were only available to those playing the game's console iterations, and devout WASD-ers were left out of the new territories.

Fear not, mousegrabbers, your day has come -- or rather, it is coming on June 5, according to Infinity Ward figurehead fourzerotwo. As expected from a map pack that's been available on other formats for nearly two months, the pack will be free to download on PC thanks to a sponsorship from NVIDIA. Little has changed for the PC versions of the four maps, though we find it regrettable that "Chinatown" is now known as "NVIDIAtown" and the Spetsnaz have been renamed the "GeForce Freedom Fighters".

At. Bloody. Last.

A bit fucking late. They could have released it while I was still able to play the game.

You've got me there. Double clicking on an icon is far more effort than I'll ever be able to muster.

Quoting makes me type less. So the quote button is for energy-conservation.

Yeah, I'll downloadifiy it, then run around it, hopefully with other 5punkers, but if not, I'll spend a little time getting to know the maps.

I knew they would eventually.

Ah, I see. My apologies.

Just had a little run around the new maps solo.

First Impressions:

Creek: Big, outdoorsy, could be fun if it doesn't become a sniperfest.
Broadcast: as the SP tv station level really, should be fairly frantic, but with tactics.
Killhouse: not so impressed, it's just a bit too small with basically no cover, and minimal concealment.
Chinatown: MOTHERFUCKING CARENTAN!

Yay - new maps. I shall download them next week and give them a go. Dare I say, could provide renewed interest.

Carentan? Does it have the piano/fixed MG/panzerfausts?

Fixed MGs, both postions, a'la cod2

Got from failplanet. Shall run around them now and have a look.
