Rumored ‘Call of Duty: Vietnam’ To Be More Story Heavy?

While not official, there have been several rumblings about Treyarch’s next installment in the white hot Call of Duty franchise. Specifically, the current rumor is that Treyarch’s Winter 2010 entry into the series will be based around conflicts regarding the Vietnam War.

Speaking with reliable sources, PlanetXbox360 has been able to uncover some more interesting bits of information on the upcoming shooter. Like with the past few Call of Duty titles, Treyarch has relied heavily on technologies and ideas introduced by series creator and producer of the CoD: Modern Warfare series. So like CoD:MW and CoDMW2, CoD: Vietnam will focus heavily on the story, specifically the struggles of each individual person in your squadron.

According to our source, similar to how the original CoD titles modeled themselves after the direction and pacing of movies such as “Saving Private Ryan”, CoD: Vietnam will borrow from notable war films such as “Platoon”, “Apocalypse Now”, and “Full Metal Jacket”.

We will have more information on Treyarch’s upcoming Call of Duty title, until then make sure to check out our coverage of their previous entry, CoD:WaW, and the recently released CoD:MW2.
