Who would get excited about this? Probably as bland as the rest. And they're supposed to make me get emotional over some random country getting invaded and feel attached to the US US US US US because apparently they're 'the good guys'? Please. Probably a repeat of Homefront where apparently North and South Korea are evil.
Oh, I don't know, people who like the game?
It's called an opinion, clearly you don't share it, but that doesn't mean nobody else will.
Oh, and also, (technically speaking) America are the bad guys through and through in this.
It's just none but Soap, Price, Makarov and of course Shepherd know it.
Shepherd instigated the war with Russia so that when he commands the defendign army, he'll look a hero.
He also wanted America to learn it's lesson: When a few thousand of his troops were wiped out in CoD4's nuke, the American people didn't seem to really give a fuck, so he plotted for it to get invaded so they'll know what war feels like.
But of course, the U.S. soldiers you play as don't know this, and neither does the world, which is why neither them nor the Russians are really bad guys in a sense of the word.
And I doubt they'll try and make you emotionally attached; none of the recent 4 CoD games I've played made me emtionally attached in any way, as much as I tried, so I'm pretty sure IW have realised this and made it a low priority.
OT: I'm hugely excited for the Single Player. The hype train has officially set off from the station.
MP, I couldn't give a dead rat's shit for at the moment. When they say it has amount of custimisation Blops did, then they can call me back.
