Call of Duty 4: Map Pack & 1.6 Patch Released

[Yoon]

For those that have Call of Duty 4, the 1.6 patch has been released, along with several new multiplayer maps:

With the release of the Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Variety Map Pack, Infinity Ward expands the online experience of 2007’s top-selling game by providing fans with four new multiplayer maps featuring a variety of locations, while supporting split-screen and system link play.

Online action takes players to “Creek,” a wide-open village ravaged by combat where concealment is the difference between life and death; “Broadcast,” fight throughout an enemy communications building with confined corridors and wide-open parking lots; “Chinatown,” a foggy downtown district, lit only by a full moon and the neon glow of the city; and “Killhouse,” featuring a desolate training warehouse filled with a variety of building mock-ups and soft and hard cover points.

Individual Map Descriptions:

Broadcast
Its size and alternating routes make Broadcast great for large team games – a large, multi-story television station with plenty of window vantage points creates the perfect setting for floor-to-floor combat. The station is surrounded by extensive outdoor areas consisting of a long parking lot, surrounding buildings with sniping hiding spots, and side-rooftop access to the top and bottom floors of the television station.

Creek
A large wide open village in the woods, “Creek” consists of heavy foliage, great for sniper cover; a deep ravine offers an excellent vantage point for ambushes; an underground cave offers an alternate evasion route; and various multi-floor houses populate a patchwork of connected farmland. This extensive open map is great for snipers with plenty of natural coverage consisting of rocks and trees. There are various routes for advancements from both high and low vantage points over and underneath the hillsides. Great for large team games.

Chinatown
A modern revision of the classic Call of Duty ”Carentan” map, Chinatown takes players to the foggy downtown district of a Chinatown. A night time setting, well lit by the full moon, surrounds the cityscape and the glow of brightly colored lanterns and neon lights of local businesses. This district offers a variety of open street and interior settings, perfect for fire fights throughout the connected roads, courtyards, antique shops, and markets within it. Great for all game types and players.

Killhouse
An enclosed warehouse made of plywood structures, mock-ups and speed-run courses used for training creates the right mix of obstacles for small team games or free-for-alls with a variety of soft and hard cover points spread throughout the entire ground level.
