CoD4 Modern Warfare Variety Map Pack Dated and Priced

A new page over at xbox.com announced of the Call of Duty 4 variety map pack will be available for download Thursday, April 3 for 800 MS points.

The Variety Map Pack includes four new multiplayer maps. "Creek" is a
wide-open village ravaged by combat where concealment is the difference
between life and death. In "Broadcast," fight throughout an enemy
communications building with confined corridors and wide-open parking
lots. "Chinatown" is a foggy downtown district, lit only by a full moon
and the neon glow of the city. "Killhouse" features a desolate training
warehouse filled with a variety of building mock-ups and soft and hard
cover points.

These new maps can't come soon enough for me, I've pretty much had my fill of the current playlists. Hopefully these new maps will be integrated in a way that helps these maps occur in the hoppers more frequently.

Call of Duty 4 Patch Now Headed to Microsoft for Certification

Robert Bowling, Infinity Ward Community Relations Manager, has announced that the new feature patch for the Xbox 360 version of Call of Duty 4 has finished it’s internal testing and development and has officially been sent off to Microsoft for Certification. Below is a list of some of the new features found in this upcoming patch:

New Kill Cams

We’ve added new Kill Cams for everything. So now those “WTF!” grenades that seemingly come from no where, you can see that a guy threw it over the house, it hit a tree branch, bounced off a rock, into a tiny window, where you happened to be pointing out of, and say…… whoa. Follow behind RPGs and M203’s kill cams, claymores, Airstrikes where you can follow the bomb from the plane until it hits you.

Host Migration

Now you won’t have to be dropped back by yourself when a host leaves. Instead, everyone will stay together, a new host will be assigned, and the game will auto-start back up. Keeping everyone together, no more re-inviting, re-joining games because some host leaves. This has been a tall order and something that we’ve put a lot of work into which has allowed us to really optimize online play all around not just specifically with Host migration.

Improved Sniper / ACOG Accuracy

Sniper and ACOG scopes have been tweaked and are really improved. I use to not snipe at all (mainly because I’m a horrible sniper), but now it’s so much more fluid and natural, while still having the same difficulty to use, it has no more “WTF I know I hit that guy!” moments.

Upgraded Spectator Cam

Now when you’re in spectator mode you can follow them in 3rd person, switch to their first person view, or rotate the camera in a full 360 degrees around whoever you’re watching.

Quick Mute Option

Users will now be able to quick mute players on the fly by pulling up the scoreboard in-game or via the lobby by simply going to their name and hitting the mute assigned button. As quickly as calling in and designating an airstike. So no longer getting killed while trying to make your way through the Xbox blades for the mute option so you can shut up the guy who always seems to find it funny to sing into his mic or cover up for his lack of skill by telling you how to play Domination his way.

Amazing CoD4 Flashbang Headshot

In a world where someone gets a headshot kill with a flashbang on their PC version of CoD4.

Zero Punctuation: Call of Duty 4

I've been a big fan of Zero Punctuation for awhile now, and I've wondered if he'd ever get to CoD4, so I was pumped to see this.

New Call of Duty 4 DLC to release this Spring... Wait, WTF?

According to Xbox 360 Fanboy, new download content will be released via XBLM starting in the spring. The download content will consist of "a few new multiplayer maps." I was hoping to see some DLC sooner rather than later, but it looks like we'll have to wait just a bit longer. There was no word in the article about the bug patch that was supposedly to be released before the end of last year, we'll probably have to wait for that too.

COD 4 Trailer

This game looks like it could be pretty f*cking sick! I thought it looked so good I jizzed all over myself! As you can see, at the end of the vid there is an official web page at www.charlieoscardelta.com, where you can view an extended and uncut trailer. Thanks 'bot.
