"Resolution"

Why does it say it's resolution is at 600p? It seems it is supported at [[ http://www.covergalaxy.com/forum/attachments/sony-ps3/5802d1227050354-call-duty-4-modern-warfare-r1-ps3-cover-dvd-cod-4-cover-3118x1748.jpg%7Cfull 1080p]], so why doesn't say so

The original release for ps3 was up to 1080i only, when the game of the year edition came out in full 1080p. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mynameisjimi (talk • contribs) 22:56, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

The narrative resolution of Call of Duty 4 on consoles is 600p. You can still play it on 720 and 1080 but it is being upconverted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.190.240.1 (talk) 01:58, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

"Console versions of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare run at a consistent 60 frames per second."

I vote we take this out, nothing runs at that FPS, it's better to say it's a 60hz game. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.177.182.57 (talk) 01:26, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

Infinity Ward has stated that the game runs at 60 frames per second, so it's basically your word against the developers'. Their word is at least sourced, and unless you can back up your claims and prove the developers were wrong, then no change is warranted. -- Commdor {Talk} 00:51, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm with Commdor. I got Knights of the Old Republic running at 350 FPS. That's larger than 60, last I checked. --Thejadefalcon^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 10:52, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

Price's Fate

Price was in the final final level, "Mile High Club" as one of your squad. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.89.62.231 (talk) 21:26, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

That can't be confirmed given that none of the members of the squad are identified, and when the mission took place relative to the main storyline is ambiguous. -- Commdor {Talk} 21:32, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

If you have the slo-mo cheat unlocked, use it during the cinimatic when Kamarov arrives at the bridge to rescue you. Look at the medic with Price. With slo-mo, you can see carefully that the medic pounds Price in frustration after giving up trying to revive him, and starts to get up, and then you're are lifted into the medevac. Try it. Look carefully and you should see it.69.114.152.45 (talk) 01:46, 16 June 2009 (UTC)'anonymous'

Even if Price died, does it really matter? it wouldn't be the first time, (Call of Duty) or that he didn't seem to age between the early 1940's and the present —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.225.171.193 (talk) 00:18, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

I thought it was Price who got executed by Zakhaev and Gaz that threw the pistol at you (and later died as the Russian tried to perform CPR). --Thejadefalcon^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 10:54, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

I think the part with the plot summary should be edited at the very end. It says Price survives and plays a prominent role in MW2 but this doesn't happen until 3/4 into the game and it's a big plot twist. I would consider this last sentence a big spoiler. If I hadn't already beaten MW2 i would be upset to read this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.134.42.42 (talk) 23:33, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Read Wikipedia:Spoiler and the consensus on WPVG and never darken my towels again. To everyone who reads this, I know I sound bitey and I'm sorry for that, but I'm getting really frustrated about constantly having to say this. --Thejadefalcon^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 23:39, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

ok. not sure why you're so upset, we're on the talk page... it's not like i'm vandalizing the main article. I didn't see anything else in this section of the talk page regarding this as a spoiler. I apologize (not sarcastic).

Nah, just never mind me. I've just seen this sort of question more times than I feel is sane recently and it's made me a frustrated. For future reference, Wikipedia doesn't give a damn about spoilers, ever. --Thejadefalcon^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 08:16, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Having played the game, I can tell you that it is not Price who is being revived by the medic, it is Gaz. Captain Price has a very distinctive mustache, whereas Gaz has his trademark cap. The soldier the medic is trying to revive is clearly Gaz, while it is Price who slides the pistol to Soap.--Sem;colon (talk) 04:41, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

(is silent for a few moments) That makes no sense whatsoever. First off, we've all played the game. Secondly, why would the models change? That makes no sense. Thirdly, MW2 just showed us in the opening scene that it was Gaz who got shot in the head. --Thejadefalcon^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 04:46, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, Zakheav clearly shoots Gaz in the head and then looks like he's going to kill Soap when the chopper behind him explodes. As he and his men are distracted, Soap looks to the left and sees Price (clearly it's Price with the mustache and hat) toss the pistol to you. After you kill Zakhaev and his men, as you're being airlifted up, you see a medic working on the guy directly to your left...in other words, Price. Anakinjmt (talk) 05:35, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

.50 BMG sniper rifle

I'd like to change "while Price fired a sniper rifle" in the Plot section to "while Price fired a .50 BMG sniper rifle" (with the hypertext), just to put it into some context as to why the entire arm of Zakhaev could be blown off by a rifle shot.

Xbox World 360 Review

Here in the article, it says that they disliked the game. Untrue; they gave it a 90%. Last time I brought this up, I was told to source it and edit. The source is the magazine itself, and it is sourced. This is what I gave last time as their verdict: "VERDICT + Utterly spectacular + Genius in parts - Seven hours long It's smoke and mirrors and a host of cheap tricks - but, as always, it's wonderful. 90%" I can't edit due to protection, but until the issue with the blatant lie saying that XW360 disliked the game is removed, I can't really take this article very seriously.

Game takes place in?

I believe, that it should be stated that, the game takes place, in the years 1996 and 2011. I can backup this claim, as, before "All Ghillied Up", It was 15 years ago, and Captain Price states that it's been a decade since the Chernobyl explosion. That would claim, that they year in "All Ghillied Up" is 1996, and 15 years after that, is 2011. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.169.215.79 (talk) 01:53, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

The piracy part of the article is awful

"Call of Duty 4 is a target of piracy, which has resulted in multiple copies of the game being illegally distributed online." This sentence is INCREDIBLY bad. EVERY video game is a "target of piracy". Hell, piracy HAS no "target". Here's a paraphrase to showcase how atrociously written it is: "Cake is a target of fat people, which has resulted in multiple recipes of the food being distributed online."

The paragraph on piracy should probably be removed from the article altogether as the quote cites no numbers, makes no comparisons to other games, and is all around weaselly. The sentence in question should certainly be removed as it adds nothing to the article and the information contained in covered in the quotes. UncannyGarlic (talk) 00:26, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

Multiplayer section

At the intro to the section the article begins listing the type of game modes in multiplayer however leaving out objective based game modes it only list team based and deathmatch I feel that needs to be added in. Also the article says that the different game modes all require unique strategies however that is not true. One team could use a simple strategy of just killing the enemy team and complete every match they play with a win or tie. This is true due to the fact that most game modes killing all enemy players in sudden death or the last round/2 minuet timer results in a win. That brings me to the final point of not game modes give a sudden death timer like the article states. Matches like team deatchmatch will soley result in the two teams tieing and the gaming ending.70.94.249.191 (talk) 00:27, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

I'd like to point out the IMDB article uses logic, not uncited facts to come to the conclusion the game takes place in 2011. As stated in the game, the flashback mission takes place 10 years after the Chernobyl incident (1986), and the rest of the game takes place 15 years after that. 1986 + 10 + 15 = 2011. --75.30.176.16 (talk) 04:55, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Price's ultimate fate

I can't really source this (or edit the article for that matter), but Modern Warfare 2 reveals what happened to Captain Price. Somehow he ended up in a Russian gulag. In the mission "The Gulag", your goal is rescure prisoner #627, who turns out to be Price. Price joins your team, and Soap gives him back the pistol that he used to kill Zakhaev at the end of COD4. I won't spoil how Modern Warfare 2 ends, but Price will play a big part. When the game comes out, someone should update Price's fate at the end of the article's story to say that "he survived, but was imprisoned in a Russian gulag up until the events of Modern Warfare 2".164.107.91.60 (talk) 14:42, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

If this really is in the game, then yes I imagine it will be added, but currently, without a legitimate source, that sounds like utter speculation/a hoax, and most likely will to other editors. RWJP (talk) 14:47, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Well, the information on Price wouldn't even go here anyway now that I think about it. It's not relevant to this game's plot. --Thejadefalcon^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 22:58, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Yes exactly, Price's fate is not relevant to the first game's plot. So all information or speculation about the game's plot beyond what is shown in the first game should be moved to the Modern Warfare 2 page. This should include the fact that Price is alive, which no doubt belongs on the modern warfare 2 page because it is not clear from the first game's plot. You stated before that this is an encyclopedia. I agree, so let's keep the information organized and where it is supposed to be. If I want to read information about a game's plot I would like to read that plot, not another plot.Cpt.MacTavish (talk) 03:39, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

It does mention that Price's fate is left unknown. Clarification that he survived to be in the sequel would be a no-brainer since MacTavish's fate is also clarified. We could just say that Price survived. It's short and doesn't stray into the sequel's plot. I'm getting the game tonight, I may post later to confirm that Price does reappear. =/= Ironoclast (Talk) 22:39, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Unlikely. If Price does appear as a prisoner, it'll be about the middle of the game. So unless you're playing on Recruit (coward!) you may have to wait for a while. :P --Thejadefalcon^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 22:45, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

Removed Spoiler

I removed a small bit at the end of the synopsis where it revealed that Price was revealed to play a major role in the second Modern Warfare game.

Agree this should be removed, you're needlessly ruining the second game for people who are trying to catch up on the storyline. What does Price being revealed to be alive have to do with CoD4? In CoD4 his death is kept intentionally ambiguous.

Not in the interest of protecting spoilers or the like, but the reappearance of characters in MW2 does not impact anything about this game. We can use the words "apparently dead" or the like to imply the unconfirmed fate.

I really, really strongly think that sentence should be removed. Not for spoiler purposes, I know wiki doesn't care about that, and neither do I. But because, as has been mentioned before, it's really not related at *all* to the *plot* of *this* game. All the information about the sequel is fully documented on its page, and any reader would understand to look for it there. The plot summary should only include details truly salient to the overall plot of the game, and I don't think this point qualifies. I think the way the section would end without that sentence is perfectly appropriate in regards both to the ambiguity of the ending of this game and to what follows in the next game. Besides, the orphan one-sentence paragraph just looks sloppy. -132.183.140.236 (talk) 23:28, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Incorrect information

In the article, it mentions that a Russian medic attempts to resuscitate Price. This is incorrect. He was trying to resusitate Gaz, as Price was concious —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.239.226.41 (talk) 07:38, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Gaz was the one to have his face blown out of the back of his head. That's an injury he won't recover from unless he's a Ghost (pun intended). I originally thought the medic was trying to revive Gaz, but watch the "Previously on Modern Warfare" section in MW2. It's Gaz who gets shot, Price who slides the pistol towards Soap. --Thejadefalcon^{Sing your song}_{The bird's seeds} 11:52, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

As Thejadefalcon said, during the scene on the bridge, the player (Soap) watches Zakhaev shoot Gaz in the head with a Desert Eagle, and is then passed a pistol by Price, who is lying off to the players left hand side. When the Russians arive to rescue the surviving members you see Price being resuscitated (or at least, the medic is attemting to). RWJP (talk) 14:29, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

And Chechen Imran Zakhaev (his name is Chechen) cannot be leader of Russian nationalists - this is a nonsense like a Black leader of Aryan Nation.

In-Game Russian insurgents can be Communists of some sort, or Eurasianists (like Alexander Dugin) - but not Ultranationalists. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.81.185.23 (talk) 15:42, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

PS3 Game Of The Year Edition

In the 'Retail versions' section, it states that "The PlayStation 3 version included the Variety map pack on the disc, and while the Xbox 360 Game of the Year edition initially included an insert in the packaging which could be redeemed on Xbox Live Marketplace to download the Variety map pack, later releases did not contain the inserts, and so were no different from the original release of the game."

However this isn't correct, the PS3 version does not include the variety map pack on the disc. Like the Xbox 360 version, initially an insert was included with a unique keycode to obtain the first Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Map Pack for free. Later releases did not.

The release which includes the insert has a circle on the bottom right hand corner of the cover with the words "FREE *4 New multiplayer maps" (http://au.gamespot.com/ps3/action/callofduty4modernwarfare/index.html?tag=result%3Btitle%3B0).

Captain Price in Call of Duty 1

The article should mention somewhere the character Captain Price in Call of Duty the original. He's a main character who appears in the American and British campaign as a British soldier, he's even got the signature Price mustache. I assume he's implied to be the Modern Warfare Price's father. Someone with more experience contributing to Wikipedia pages than I could add this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.30.176.16 (talk) 04:40, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

That isn't exactly relevant to this specific article. There is no proof that Captain Price is the CoD4's Captain Price's father, and it isn't important enough to put in the article in the first place. Razr95^☣ 01:05, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Plot section

I think the plot section is too long and should be trimmed down a bit to make it concise-SCB '92 (talk) 16:01, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

Actual dates for COD4 and MW2 confirmed in MW3

I know the years Call of Duty 4 and Modern Warfare 2 take place in have long been the source of speculation, well now they've finally been confirmed in Modern Warfare 3. The mission "Blood Brothers" shows flashbacks of events that occurred in COD4 and MW2 with actual dates attached to them. The flashback of the Zakhaev assassination attempt in Prypiat (COD4 mission "One shot. One kill") is labelled as "winter 1996". The flashback of the nuclear detonation in the middle east (COD4 mission "Shock and awe") is labelled as "2011". Finally, the flashback of the Zakhaev airport massacre scene (MW2 mission "No Russian") is labelled "2016". These had long been the speculated dates, but now that they're actually confirmed, I was thinking they could be added into the COD4 and MW2 articles. Splew (talk) 20:15, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

Basis for Gaz's Character

I can't help but wonder if "Gaz" is based off a man of the same name in Andy Mcnab's Immediate action, and can't help but wonder as well whether it would be useful to try to find some information about how they designed the characters.109.156.192.4 (talk) 14:23, 20 November 2011 (UTC)
