Objective
A single, unified game mode in which two teams must battle to achieve various objectives on a map. The victorious team proceeds to the next map. The game consists of 5 maps split between Human and Undead, wher each factions stronghold is the target at both ends. Ultimate victory in the campaign is brought about by destroying the opponants stronghold. Play begins in the middle of the map, then the teams fight it out to see who holds the balance of power within that level at various points of the map. By holding control points, a team will reduce the other teams respawn tickets to zero. Holding more control points will reduce the other teams respawn tickets faster. Winning a map will move play to the next closest map to the other teams stronghold. The central map of the 5 will be almost entirely symmetrical in tearms of gameplay (although the graphics will be varied). Each teams stronghold map will be entirely symmectrical, with strong attack / defend mechanics. Maps 2 and 4 will be more like skirmish maps

Demo is sinlge player and multiplayer.
A lot of people have been put off by the demo but I think it looks like it could build up to a great dungeon crawl arcadey game.

I did not enjoy the demo. But I didn't enjoy the CoD4 Beta either. Granted I didn't play it but still......
