From the fields of France to the Volga River--from the smallest squads dropped behind enemy lines, to the massive divisions that won the war on multiple fronts--the soldiers of the Allied Forces stopped the German Army by standing and fighting together, side by side. , In Call of DutyTM you get to fight alongside your brothers-in-arms as history comes alive. In momentous battles from D-Day to Stalingrad, you'll find yourself in incredibly real terrain, caught in breathtaking life and death combat. You'll fight as American and British paratroopers and as a young Russian soldier conscripted into the Soviet Army. Whether cut off in a village in Normandy, battling to re-take Red Square, boarding and sinking a German battleship, speeding down German-held roads or rescuing Allied officers from a German stronghold, the dangers are more than any one soldier can overcome. To make it through, you'll need your buddies around you, and they'll need you. That's what war is about, and it's what Call of Duty TM is all about.

THE SINGLE PLAYER GAME In the single player campaigns of the game, you play as an Allied soldier deep in the thick of some of the fiercest combat of the Second World War. The success of your squad, the completion of your mission and your very survival will depend on how well you move, how well you shoot and, perhaps most importantly, how well you keep your wits about you. To begin a single player game, select Play Call of DutyTM Single Player from the Call of DutyTM folder contained in the Programs section of the Windows® Start Menu. 4 5 PLAYING THE GAME Each mission's briefing will provide crucial information about the setting, objectives, opportunities and potential obstacles you'll encounter. This information will take the form of personal journal entries or communiqués from your superiors. Study them closely before entering the mission. The information they contain could save your life. Status Text ­ Throughout the game, updates appear here including changes in mission objectives, picking up health and other alerts. Ammunition Counter ­ The box in the lower right-hand section of the screen is your ammunition counter. The first number indicates how many rounds are in your current weapon's clip. The second number indicates your total number of rounds. Health Bar ­ This bar indicates your current health status. A full green bar indicates full health. The bar reduces in size and changes color along the spectrum from green to red as you lose health. Crosshair ­ Use your crosshair to aim your weapon at your enemies. When you run or walk, your crosshair will widen, indicating the lack of accuracy that comes from attempting to aim while moving. The wider the crosshair, the less accurate your shots. When you stop moving, you automatically steady your weapon and your crosshair narrows. It is often wisest to fire when completely stopped to ensure accurate shots (and enable you to conserve ammo). Crouching or lying prone also keeps your crosshair focused, and it is advisable to use these positions whenever possible. Your crosshair will change when you encounter interactive objects. If you move your crosshair over an ally who is close to you, you will see your crosshair change to the image of a person. Press the Use key (default: F ) to ask individuals to move out of your line of sight. Pickup Indicator ­ This indicator appears when there is an item you can pick up, be it a health kit, secret documents or a new weapon. In order to pick up the desired item, press your Use key (default: F ). In the case of a new weapon (or ammunition for your current arsenal), you must press and hold the Use key. 7 In-Game Display Crosshair Status Text Compass Ammunition Counter Stance Indicator Pickup Indicator Health Indicator Compass ­ The compass is useful for helping you navigate your surroundings and for getting your bearings. In addition to showing you which direction you're facing, it also shows you the location of Allies in your vicinity (green arrows) and the location of your current objective (a golden star). Stance Indicator ­ The triangle-shaped icon shows you what your current stance is in the game. The icon will change from standing to crouching to prone, depending on the stance you choose. 6 MOVEMENT CONTROLS The default movement keys are as follows: Command Forward Backpedal Move Left Move Right Lean Left Default Key W S A D Q Description Walk forward. Walk backward. Sidestep to the left. Sidestep to the right. Lean to the left around corners to minimize your exposure. Lean to the right around corners to minimize your exposure. Stand upright from either the crouching or prone position. Crouch from either the standing or prone position. Lie prone from either the standing or crouched position. Jump (when already standing) or move up to stand from either prone or crouch. Move down one stance position (from standing to crouching or from crouching to prone). Command Stance Up Default Key Unbound Description Move up one stance position (from crouching to standing or from prone to crouching). Press once to move into crouch position. Press again to return to your previous stance. Press once to move into prone position. Press again to return to your previous stance. Hold to crouch. When released, you return to your previous stance. Hold to lie prone. When released, you return to your previous stance. Rotate to the left while staying in one position. Rotate to the right while staying in one position. Sidestep (control direction with mouse). Toggle Crouch Unbound Toggle Prone Unbound Crouch Unbound Lean Right E Prone Unbound Stand/Jump Spacebar Turn Left Turn Right Strafe Unbound Unbound Unbound Go to Crouch Go to Prone C CTRL Jump/Stance Up Unbound In addition to running forward, backward, left and right, you'll need to master the other movement skills described on the following pages. Stance Down Unbound 8 9 Crouching and Going Prone As soon as you enter your first battle, you'll find that a soldier who stands around often winds up dead. A shrewd player will make use of both the crouch and prone stance positions when in the thick of battle to keep cover, avoid enemy fire and move without exposing himself to danger. Keep in mind that while crouched or prone, you'll be harder to hit, but won't move as fast as when standing up. Additionally, when prone, you'll crawl on your belly at a very slow pace and won't be able to fire while moving. IMPORTANT TIP: Always use available cover! Crouching or lying behind trees and brush can keep the enemy from spotting you. Getting behind bulletproof objects can save you from gunfire. Leaning The ability to lean around corners and obstacles is essential to your survival. Leaning minimizes your exposure in potentially dangerous situations and allows you to look into rooms, around corners and otherwise peek from behind cover to survey the situation, check for hidden enemies and even fire at them. You can still be seen and even shot while leaning, so exercise caution. You activate the lean controls for as long as you hold down the key. Releasing either lean key returns you to a centered view position. VIEW CONTROLS The default view keys are as follows: Command Look Up Look Down Mouse Look Default Key Unbound Unbound Unbound Description Shifts your view up to see above you. Shifts your view down to see below you. Toggles between mousecontrolled view and keyboardcontrolled view. Returns your view to front and center. Enable mouse-controlled "free" viewing--move your º mouse to view 360. Invert the Y-axis of the mouse if you prefer. Makes mouse movement less jittery. Controls the responsiveness of the mouse. Center View Free Look Unbound Yes Invert Mouse Smooth Mouse Mouse Sensitivity No No Slider 10 11 By default, looking around in the game is controlled by the mouse. Moving your mouse from side to side rotates your view left or right. Moving your mouse forward (away from you) causes you to look up, while moving your mouse backward (toward you) causes you to look down. Command Default Key 2 3 4 Mouse Wheel Down Mouse Wheel Up Description Switch your active weapon to the second weapon slot. Switch your active weapon to your pistol. Switch your active weapon to grenades. Switch to the next weapon in your inventory. Switch to the previous weapon in your inventory. Select Second Weapon Select Pistol Select Grenade Next Weapon Previous Weapon WEAPON CONTROLS The default weapon-related keys are as follows: Command Attack Default Key Left Mouse Button Description Fire weapon. Toggle Aim Right Mouse Button Switch between "Aim Down the Sight Down the Sight" and "From the Hip" firing modes. Aim Down the Sight Unbound Hold down to aim down the sight of your gun. Release to return to normal firing mode. Strike the enemy with the butt of your gun. Reload weapon. Switch between fully automatic and semiautomatic firing modes. (Note: Not all weapons have multiple firing modes) Switch your active weapon to the first weapon slot. Aiming Down the Sight (ADS) With every gun, you can enable the "aim down the sight" function, bringing the weapon up from your hip to your face so you can look down the sight (or look into the scope, in the case of scoped rifles). Aiming down the sight gives you a slight zoom effect, enabling you to be more accurate. However, when aiming down the sight, you move slower than normal. The default toggle key for Aim Down the Sight is the Right Mouse Button. You can also bind a key to "hold down" between ADS and normal modes. Melee Attack Reload Weapon Change Rate of Fire Shift R M Select First Weapon 1 12 13 Melee Attack Sometimes the proximity of your enemies makes it difficult to aim your weapon and defend yourself properly. Fortunately, you have a melee attack (default: Shift ) available that allows you to smack an enemy at close range with the butt end of your rifle or pistol. OTHER CONTROLS Command Default Key Show Objectives/ Tab Score Use F Description Bring up a list of your mission objectives. Use, pick up, drop off and otherwise interact with items and devices. Use this function to take an in-game screenshot. Quickly save your game in the middle of a mission. Load your Quick Save game. Set this to Yes if you would like to enable the in-game console (accessible by pressing the tilde ~ key). Please be advised that the Console is not supported. Please do not call Activision Customer Support with any questions regarding this feature. Screenshot Quick Save Quick Load Enable Console F12 F5 F9 No Reloading Weapons When your weapon's clip runs out of ammunition, you will automatically reload. Monitor your ammunition carefully! Reloading in the middle of a firefight takes time and leaves you unable to defend yourself. If you're running low on ammunition, pick up the extra ammunition from a fallen comrade's weapon of the same type. If all else fails, grab a weapon from a fallen enemy. Swapping Weapons and Picking Up Items When you see a weapon on the ground, you can swap it with one of your two main weapons (slot 1 or slot 2). To swap weapons, move your crosshair over the weapon and hold down the Use key. You'll automatically drop your current weapon and pick up the new weapon. Picking up items is as simple as pointing your crosshair at the item and pressing the Use key, or, in the case of health and ammunition, walking over the item. Show Objectives/Score Throughout your campaign, mission objectives will change. Press the Show Objectives/Score key (default: TAB ) to show your mission objectives and give you a status on each one. · Incomplete or in-progress mission objectives appear in green text. · Failed mission objectives appear in red text. · Completed mission objectives appear in black text. Quick Save/Quick Load As you progress through the campaigns, it's wise to save your progress. The Quick Save (default: F5 ) and Quick Load (default: F9 ) hotkeys allow you to avoid the save/load menus and stay in the action. 15 14 WEAPONS IN CALL OF DUTY TM United States M1A1 Carbine The M1A1 Carbine, a .30 caliber semi-automatic rifle with a folding stock, is commonly issued to paratroopers. Though it lacks the stopping power of larger rifles, it's lightweight, accurate and compact. Range: Medium Rate of Fire: Medium Damage: Moderate Mobility: Fast Range: Rate of Fire: Damage: Mobility: Long Fast High Slow Springfield The Springfield M1903, originally developed after the SpanishAmerican War, is a sniper rifle equipped with a 4x zoom scope. As a bolt-action scoped weapon, it has a slow rate of fire and reloads one round at a time. Range: Very Long Rate of Fire: Slow Damage: Very High Mobility: Medium M1 Garand The M1 Garand is a powerful and accurate semi-automatic rifle. Its primary drawback is that it can't be conveniently reloaded in the middle of a clip. Range: Long Rate of Fire: Medium Damage: High Mobility: Fast Colt .45 A standard issue pistol for American paratroopers, favored by British airborne forces as well. The 7-round magazine is small, but the stopping power of the large .45 caliber round makes the Colt useful in a pinch. Range: Rate of Fire: Damage: Mobility: Short Medium Moderate Very Fast Thompson The Thompson submachine gun is effective at close range and fires the powerful .45 ACP round. It's notoriously inaccurate at a distance but compensates with a high rate of fire. Range: Short Rate of Fire: Fast Damage: High Mobility: Fast M2 Fragmentation Grenade Fragmentation grenades are very effective anti-personnel devices. The highly explosive charges reduce their metal casing to flying fragments, causing considerable blast damage. Though they're ineffective against armored vehicles, they are extremely useful for clearing out entrenched infantry positions. Range: Rate of Fire: Damage: Mobility: Medium Medium Very High Very Fast 17 Browning Automatic Rifle The Browning automatic rifle is a squad support weapon, used to lay down accurate suppression fire at enemy positions. It is most effective when used while prone. 16 Russia PPSh The PPSh submachine gun holds 71 rounds of Soviet pistol ammo and has a very high rate of fire. It's ineffective at long range and fires a relatively weak round, but its rate of fire makes for effective suppression and close-range combat. Range: Short Rate of Fire: Very Fast Damage: Moderate Mobility: Fast RGD-33 Stick Grenade Fragmentation grenades are very effective anti-personnel devices. The highly explosive charges reduce their metal casing to flying fragments, causing considerable blast damage. Though they're ineffective against armored vehicles, they are extremely useful for clearing out entrenched infantry positions. Range: Rate of Fire: Damage: Mobility: Medium Medium Very High Very Fast Mosin-Nagant The Mosin-Nagant is a bolt-action rifle capable of very accurate and powerful long-range fire. However, its low rate of fire is a liability in close-range combat. Range: Long Rate of Fire: Slow Damage: Very High Mobility: Medium United Kingdom Lee-Enfield First introduced in 1907 at the outbreak of the First World War, the Lee-Enfield rifle is the British Army's standard issue infantry weapon. A bolt-action rifle, it's powerful and effective at long range. It carries up to ten rounds, loaded by two 5-round stripper clips. Range: Long Rate of Fire: Slow Damage: Very High Mobility: Fast Scoped Mosin-Nagant Outfitted with a 4x zoom scope, the Scoped Mosin-Nagant is perfect for long-range sniper work. Range: Very Long Rate of Fire: Slow Damage: Very High Mobility: Medium Sten The Sten Mark 2 is a 9mm submachine gun effective for clearing out rooms and trenches. Its compact frame and light weight provide excellent mobility. Range: Medium Rate of Fire: Fast Damage: Moderate Mobility: Very Fast Luger The Luger pistol carries 9mm ammunition and an 8-shot magazine. It's a highly prized trophy for Allied soldiers and can often be found as a sidearm in Russian or American hands. Range: Rate of Fire: Damage: Mobility: 18 Short Medium Moderate Very Fast 19 Bren LMG The Bren is an excellent machine gun in the role of squad support. Its large size limits mobility, but allows it to deliver accurate automatic rounds when fired while prone. Range: Long Rate of Fire: Fast Damage: High Mobility: Slow Germany MP40 The MP40 submachine gun is an effective room-clearing weapon. It has a relatively minimal muzzle climb even when fired fully automatic in extended bursts. Range: Medium Rate of Fire: Fast Damage: Moderate Mobility: Fast Colt .45 A standard issue pistol for American paratroopers, favored by British airborne forces as well. The 7-round magazine is small, but the stopping power of the large .45 caliber round make the Colt useful in a pinch. Range: Rate of Fire: Damage: Mobility: Short Medium Moderate Very Fast MP44 The MP44 is an assault rifle that fires a unique "short" rifle round. Up close, it can be used as a submachine gun, while at longer ranges it can operate as a rifle. Range: Long Rate of Fire: Fast Damage: High Mobility: Medium MK1 Fragmentation Grenade Fragmentation grenades are very effective anti-personnel devices. The highly explosive charges reduce their metal casing to flying fragments, causing considerable blast damage. Though they're ineffective against armored vehicles, they are extremely useful for clearing out entrenched infantry positions. Range: Rate of Fire: Damage: Mobility: Medium Medium Very High Very Fast Kar98k The Kar98k is the standard issue German infantry rifle. It's accurate and deadly at long range, but suffers from a slow rate of fire due to its bolt-action mechanism. Range: Long Rate of Fire: Slow Damage: Very High Mobility: Medium Scoped Kar98k The Kar98k outfitted with a scope is a formidable sniper rifle. Range: Very Long Rate of Fire: Slow Damage: Very High Mobility: Medium 20 21 FG42 The FG42 is a great multi-purpose weapon. It's one of the deadliest fully automatic weapons available and the single-fire mode is effective at all ranges. A 4x zoom scope is standard issue. Range: Rate of Fire: Damage: Mobility: Very Long Fast High Medium Stielhandgranate Fragmentation grenades are very effective anti-personnel devices. The highly explosive charges reduce their metal casing to flying fragments, causing considerable blast damage. Though they're ineffective against armored vehicles, they are extremely useful for clearing out entrenched infantry positions.

Range: Rate of Fire: Damage: Mobility: Short Medium Moderate Very Fast Stationary Weapons In order to use a stationary weapon (such as an MG42 machine gun) move up to the weapon until you see the hand icon. Press the Use key (default: F ) to mount the weapon and fire the weapon with the attack command. Press the Use key again to dismount from the weapon. Panzerfaust The Panzerfaust (German for "Armored Fist") is an anti-tank weapon, launching a small charge designed to penetrate an armored tank or vehicle. Due to the armor-piercing nature of the charge, it's not an effective anti-personnel device. Each Panzerfaust is only a single shot weapon, but one shot is often enough to reduce even the largest tanks to smoldering ruins within seconds. Range: Rate of Fire: Damage: Mobility: Short One Shot Very High Slow OTHER INFORMATION Health Kits Throughout your journey, you'll encounter three kinds of health kits ­ tins, boxes and bags, which replenish small, medium and large amounts of health, respectively. Press the Use key or walk over them to pick them up. Note that there are no additional health kits when playing the single player game on the Veteran difficulty setting. 23 22 MULTIPLAYER To play online, select the Multiplayer option from the Single Player main menu or choosing the Join Game option from the Multiplayer main menu.

Points are awarded for kills, and the first player to either reach the score limit (set by the server administrator) or have the most points when time runs out is the victor. Multiplayer Game Types Behind Enemy Lines A very small team of Allied soldiers is outnumbered and surrounded by Axis soldiers behind enemy lines. Allied players gain points by staying alive and by killing as many Axis players as possible. An Axis player who kills an Allied player respawns as an Allied player for a chance to score even more points. Team Deathmatch Similar to deathmatch mode but with all players divided into two teams. Points are awarded for kills. The team with the most points at the end of the time limit wins but the first team to reach the score limit can claim early victory. Retrieval In this timed, round-based, team-oriented mode, one team must locate and retrieve crucial documents from the enemy and return the documents to their safe zone (represented as a blue box on the compass). The defending team must hold the enemy off until the time runs out. The attacking team gains points for successfully retrieving the documents. The defending team gains 30 31 IMPORTANT TIPS Nobody Makes It Alone ­ Success in Call of Duty relies on a well-coordinated and cooperative squad. Your squadmates help fight the enemy by providing cover fire and helping to eliminate threats. Above all, listen to your squad leader! Do exactly what he says and you'll stay alive. TM Reloading ­ Always reload your weapon after a firefight. This enables you to be as prepared as possible for the next engagement you face. Another enemy could be just around the corner, and entering a conflict with low or no ammunition in your weapon could cost you your life. Leaning ­ When progressing through combat areas, use the Lean commands to enable you to peer around walls, doors, windows or other obstacles. You'll be harder to see and harder to shoot should enemies be on the other side. You can also lean around obstacles to fire on the enemy, getting the jump on your targets and suppressing threats as quickly and safely as possible. Stance ­ Be mindful of your stance at all times. Soldiers that walk tall on the battlefield often find themselves coming home in a box. Crouching and lying prone keeps your profile low, making you harder to see, and more importantly, harder to shoot. Know When to Be the Hero ­ The soldier who runs into the thick of battle guns a-blazing often winds up dead. Although you'll often be called upon to make split-second decisions, a levelheaded and patient warrior is the one who returns home to his family. Remember that a deadly threat could be looming behind any corner, wall, window or rock. Stay alert, move deliberately and don't try anything stupid. Use Cover ­ Every battle environment you encounter will have a range of available locations to keep out of sight and out of the path of whizzing bullets. Crouch and crawl behind solid cover as much as possible--you never know when new threats will spot you, and be confident that Gerry will not hesitate to shoot you down in your tracks. Stay Mobile ­ Think you found a good spot for cover? That may change in a matter of seconds. Although pausing to regroup, assess threats, reload weapons or replenish health is always necessary, don't stay in one location for too long. You never know when the enemy may discover you and compromise what you thought was a safe location. If you hear artillery or mortar fire in the distance, by all means stay mobile. You may not survive if a stray shell lands near you. Be Thorough ­ Clear buildings and combat areas with a meticulous and thorough search. Enemies may lie in silence, waiting for you or your squad to let your guard down. 32 33 CREDITS INFINITY WARD Jason West . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Engineering Lead Zied Rieke . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Design Lead Justin Thomas . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Art Lead Michael Boon . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Animation Lead Vince Zampella . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Producer Ken Turner . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Development Director Robert Field, Francesco Gigliotti, Carl Glave, Earl Hammon, Jr., Jason West . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Engineering Bryan Kuhn, Fairfax Sheild McCandlish IV . . . . . . .Additional Programming Todd Alderman, Keith "Ned Man" Bell, Steve Fukuda, Preston Glenn, Chad Grenier, Fairfax Sheild McCandlish IV, Zied Rieke, Nate Silvers . . .Level Design & Game Play Scripting Brad Allen, Chris Hassell, Jeff Heath, Justin Thomas . . . . . .Art Paul Jury . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Lead 2D Justin Thomas, Kevin Chen . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Concept Art Dan Moditch, Sloan Anderson . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Additional Art Michael Boon, Ursula Escher, Chance Glasco, Paul Messerly . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Animation Shadows in Darkness . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Additional Animation Chuck Russom . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Sound Jack Grillo . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Additional Sound Bryan Kuhn . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .System Administrator MANAGEMENT Grant Collier . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .CEO Vince Zampella . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .CCO Jason West . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .CTO Janice Turner . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Office Manager Clifton Cline, Oliver George, Chris Hermans, Scott Matloff, Gavin McCandlish, David Oberlin . . . . . .Testers Mike Phillips, Josh Henniger, Dave Santi and the members of E Company 2/506 PIR 101st Airborne Division of Southern California, 8th Guards Mechanized Corps and the participants of the Camp Gruber Battle of Berlin reenactment of November 2002 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Historical Reference ACTIVISION PRODUCTION Thaine Lyman . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Senior Producer Ken Murphy . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Producer Daniel Hagerty, Eric Grossman . . . . . . . . . .Associate Producers Matthew Beal . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Production Coordinator Robert "Paligap" Kirschenbaum, Patrick "Kewk" Bowman . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Production Testers Eric Adams . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Additional Production Laird Malamed . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Senior Executive Producer Mark Lamia . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .VP, North American Studios Larry Goldberg . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Exec.
