The guys over at IGN (http://www.ign.com/) recently got a chance to interview retired Army Lieutenant Colonel Hank Keirsey, the military advisor for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Check it out:
IGN AU: In what regards is it most realistic then? Does it capture the intensity and feel of a fire-fight? Or is it more over the top than what a real fire-fight is?
LTC retired Hank Keirsey: Fortunately for me, my fire-fights have been never as intense as in the game. A round fired here, a round fired back, movement, movement, round. This is probably one of those fire-fights that occur when you happen to be in that one sector of a very bad battle. Maybe only one out of every thousand soldiers has seen this kind of battle. But in COD4, you're now in one of those fire-fights.
Just a ten minute session of that would be enough for a lifetime for you to remember. These games you end up going from one extreme fire-fight to the next most extreme situation to the next most extreme situation. The realism is absolutely real if you're the one in thousand guys that ends up in that particularly bad sector, and got ambushed. Absolutely real.
