Okay. I really need to vent right now. I really hope there is no one else in my house at the moment or their life might be in danger. As you can probably tell, I'm pretty f**king pissed off. Currently, I'm playing Call of Duty: World at War. Great game. It's not as good as COD4 in my opinion but still great. Up until today, I had gotten every trophy in the game except for the ones for completing each level on verteran, the overall beating the game on verteran one and obviously the platinum. So today I started playing on verteran and let me say one thing. It's not a fun experience. Not at all. The increased accuracy of the enemy and the fact that it takes 2 shots to kill you should be enough for a good challenge.
But oh no, not with Treyarch. They have to go to whole new levels of cheapness to the likes of which I've never seen. Hordes of Enemies that target you and you alone while dozens of your squadmates are all around you. I've seen Enemies run past my teammates just go get to me. Oh and did I mention the grenades? You are constantly spammed with wave after wave after wave of grenades it honestly makes you wonder how they could carry so many and how they are shooting while throwing all of them. They can drop a grenade in your pocket from 50 meters away. And last but not least. The HORRID checkpoint system. There were times where I walked 30 ft and got 2 or three checkpoints in that span. And there were other times where I had to go through massive firefights, dying again and again and again, simply because there were no checkpoints for many many minutes at a time.
Despite nearly pulling my hair out and breaking the controller, I finally managed to go through the entire game on Verteran. It felt amazing. Amazing. Until about 2 seconds after I beat it, I realized that despite getting my last "beat this level on verteran" trophy, I did not get the one for completting the game on veteran. Well, isn't that grand? Hours and Hours and Hours of hair pulling frustration for nothing? Needless to say, I'm not very happy right now. I'm not really sure I'll ever put this game into my game console again or ever buy anything from Treyarch again. Simply sickening and ridiculous.
