CoD4 - Image 1


It's quite uncommon for an FPS game to have an absolutely awesome single player mode, and Infinity Ward's Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (PC, Sony PS3, Microsoft Xbox 360) definitely delivered in that oft-ignored part of an FPS title package. Now, we catch wind that while the developers don't quite have plans for downloadable content for the single-player campaign, it's pretty much in their reach to dole out some.

This comes directly from one of Infinity Ward's programmers, namely Jon Shiring. His statement, verbatim: "I wouldn't rule it out but we don't have any plans for that right now."

The reason for this, Jon Shiring explains, is that developers tend to release new multiplayer content instead of single player content when it comes to FPS titles. It makes sense, given the competitive nature of the genre. But - and it's a resounding but - when it comes to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Shiring stated that the upcoming DLC was in direct response to community requests, and not just because of the inherent multiplayer aspect of the game.

This means, then, that if players want to get more out of the Single Player Campaign, then all we have to do is to demand it. It's not all that hard, and the devs DO listen (as proven by the incoming DLC), so let's hope for it, shall we?

As for the upcoming DLC, here are a few details: the Xbox 360 version will be getting its joy come April 4, while the PS3 version a full 21 days after (that's April 25). No news yet about the PC version, but it's a safe bet that it will be pretty unique from the console versions. Here's hoping so, in any case. Updates as we get them!

 » hmm.

Maybe if they DO plan to do any Single Player DLC, it will explain that currently-random Air Force One mission at the end of COD4.

... but don't get me wrong, I would love the possible single player content to tie in to that mission.

 » True

It was a fun (albeit short) mission. Maybe it's a preview for Call of Duty 6 (Treyarch is making COD5 again, and it'll be set in the future, while COD6 is being developed by Infinity Ward)

Where did you hear that? The future? The latest rumors peg CoD5 as another WWII game...

i think he meant because they were making COD5 while developing COD4 that they are now also developing COD6 or soon will,
and that COD6 will be set in the future
