About Mistakes in Call of Duty: United Offensive, the entire Call of Duty series has highly questionable historical accuracy. To list all of the historical inaccuracies in the game would take pages and pages, so why not just a sentence or two mentioning that the game fails to be accurate to history much of the time?

[edit] Inaccuracies

"Except in sound and sight, all of the game's armoured vehicles are the same within their class. The Sherman, the Panzer IV, and the T-34/85 are exactly the same, while the two heavy tanks - SU-152 and Elefant - are identical to each other." This paragraph is incorrect. The Sherman is noticeably weaker than the Panzer IV in this game, though the t-34/85 is roughly the same as the Panzer and there's really no difference between the su-152 and Elefant.

Perhaps it looks like that to you in game. However, the code would beg to differ. (USMA2010 03:25, 12 October 2006 (UTC))

[edit] AWE

Why no mention of the AWE mod? Perhaps the most popular mod in the CoD series.

If you want to put it in, then feel free. If the rest of us eventually think it needs to be taken down though, don't cry about it. (USMA2010 03:26, 12 October 2006 (UTC))
Considering that AWE is featured on the Call of Duty article as well as the List of Call of Duty mods, it should be mentioned in the article; though I don't feel that it's entirely relevant unless you expand the Multiplayer section. --Scottie theNerd 09:18, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Guns of Navarone

"The Sicily mission is arguably influenced by The Guns of Navarone." If this refers specifically to the film as opposed to the novel, please disambiguate. Cheers. TheMadBaron 12:43, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gordan Freeman

This is the first time I have talk so if I'm doing anything wrong please tell me. ok. Did anyone see on the USA mission there was two soldiers one called "Gordan" and the other "Freeman". That makes gordan freeman from half-life :D
