World At War claims are "bullshit", says enraged Infinity Ward

OXM UK: CoD 4 dev Infinity Ward has mounted an astonishing attack on Call of Duty: World at war, denouncing the producer as a "Senior Super Douche" who "doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about." Handbags at the ready!

IW and Treyarch should settle this in a bomb the base match. The 360 can represent the bomb

1.9 - The producer is a dipshit
Its the same guy a few months back that arrogantly said that their product was another level from the other developer also making a WWII game (it was recently released, don't remember the name). Treyarch later apologize for his comments.

The guy is a dumbass, I'm with IW on this one.

Is he yelling about the same CoD5 producer who said "we're on another level than all the other shooters this holiday. Our game blows them out of the water."

The title makes it seem like the whole companies are involved.

I'll pass CoD5

This holiday season is awesome. My PS3 library just doubled in a few months. Awesome!

Off topic : Also, when you know all these great games just came out, don't you find it hilarious to see those Fracture ads on N4G? I dunno, this game feels so underwhelming lol, especially if you look at the guy's face in the ad's picture. What kind of idiots decided to release the game at this time of the year? ...just wanted to share this thought.

Honestly I downloaded COD5 beta on my Xbox and I don't really like it. Probably because WW2 games have been to over done and I know there are fans out there who like WW2 games. COD4 I will always play but right now it takes a break for Gears of War 2 and Restiance 2 both i enjoy more online. When COD5 comes out next week I will rent it but I will not own it.

I agree, they should have just stuck with modern day weapons. There's way too many WW2 games.

11.2 - I agree...
I was playing Treyarchs COD WOW beta the other night at my mates. I know it's a beta but it just didn't play as well as COD MW. The guns are a step backward, lots of stupid army style shouting soundbites. I'm not much of a fan of the phosphorus grenade or what ever it is.

Just to have something positive to say about Treyarchs game...It's definitely better than COD 3.

I'm still undecided though on whether I'll buy this. I would have preferred to see Infinity Ward release some more maps for COD 4 MW.

14 - you see N4G
this is the kind of news us as gamers need to entertain us without the constant war of fanboyizm.. however im with iW on this one,since i dont like activision at all,bieng a producer has nothing to do with the game exccept produce it lol... the dev's are the ones that make the game.

i didnt care to much for COD4 just for the fact it got old to me quick,but COD5 will be probably worse but better just for the co-op and zombies (witch is incredibly dumb but very fun).

i'll just stick to my resistance 2 untill Killzone 2 comes out.

the COD franchise ended at 4.

producer provides money. Money usually (not all the time but) have good potential to make good games. Producer takes all the profits. Producer has alot to do with product.

This isn't actually insulting Treyarch or CoD:WaW. This is insulting a guy from Activision who acts like he is a developer and saying how he (the Activision guy) should stop talking about developing a game when in reality doesn't know anything about programing.

But still, don't f*ck with Infinity Ward.

world at war is going to blow. its cod4 without f%cking laser sights. wtf is the point. the graphics are worse and chances are everything else is worse as well.

infinity ward made a great game, letting treyarch make the next cod just to pump out a game every year and turn it into madden is stupid.

infinity ward is talking sh!t straight to its publisher, not to treyarch in this blog. i dont know how well that's going to work out for them. but since they made cod4 i doubt activision can do anything about it.

18 - I'm tired of so much drama in this industry
I don't wanna hear anymore about CliffyB's flamebait, the other CliffyB (the new one), or about Call of Duty developers' catfights. I just want my good games to come out finished with no need for patches to correct framerate drops and sh1tty glitches, my fair, balanced and objective reviews, and developers to shut up and put up.

This premium douche bag, Noah Heller, is NOT employed by Treyarch, but rather by Activision. He has stirred up trouble before by insulting Gearbox and the Brothers in Arms series.

He doesn't have much of a hand in the making of the game, thankfully.

That's pretty funny. But I wonder what the big honchos at Activision think? These two groups seem like brothers who don't get along. Is their sibling rivalry at Activision?

Also, didn't Infinity Ward create the game engine being used for World At War? That means they don't have to really do that much work. They just get to work on the fun details.
