    Finished the campaign:

    One of the best campaigns I have ever played in my life, the emotion and loss you feel towards every single triumph and fall is nearly indescribable, even with the loss of everyone, Soap, Yuri, Roach, Gaz, Sandman and of course Ghost, you can't help but smile at the ending of this game, I have to say, the ending felt a tad out of place, I guess its the fact I Killed Makarov without Soap or Ghost with me, but none the less the world is without another mad man. Cudos Infinity Ward for making the Number 1 xbox campaign I have ever played.

    Yeah I have to say I was thinking
    once soap died it just wouldn't be great but then when in paris I just seen it, I knew finishing with price was the best way to play it. I liked price the most out of every character. He was one bad ass mo fo and I just loved that it finished with him and was also good to hear macMillian, thought the way everything tied together was just brilliant with the meeting in Ukraine and al asads palace.

    For me next to COD4 and halo it has been the best SP. My single players would rank as follows. Halo CE, COD4, MW3. Still think halo was the biz, cant wait for the re release.

    I'd pay extra for Halo if they removed The Flood as an enemy though.

    Just finished the campaign mode. I never usually bother and go straight to online, but I enjoyed it to be honest.

    Going to get stuck into online tomorrow as I'm off for the day, looking forward to it!

    one thing I wish the campaign had and that was
    another level set in NYC
    it made for such a cool setting. also the story could have lasted a bit longer, not the campaign just the lenght of time its set over, if it starts literally as MW2 ends then the whole Russian invasion has only been going on a short while,its meant to be WW3, I can't remember what dates it set over but its only a few days isnt it?

    If you run around you get killed by people camping, if you dont run around its boring because the maps are so big and you dont see anyone. Its a hard one


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    Now considering I haven't played all the maps (they NEVER come up though in fairness to me) as I have not played the game as much as previous COD games at this stage), the maps I've played are very hit and miss. Now, I understand what they were trying to achieve and I'm usually not a fan of big, wide open maps in COD myself for the most part. But that is what is missing. Be it a map like Overgrown for example, or Strike (<3). Long clear sight-lines. Wasteland is a no-no for me but I've a hate-hate thing going on with that map :P Too many narrow sight-lines going on atm.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 494 ✭✭eco2live


    I think this is the best COD yet. I know they have not changed the formula much but I think it is more to do with the current platforms. It would not be COD without 60fps action. I love the graphics engine on this. MW3 is the best fps since Quake 3 on the PC.

    I think some people miss the point of COD and that's why its a love and hate thing for loads of people. First impressions is that it is chaos and you have no control over getting killed. But once you start to understand the pace, spawns, maps, routes, hot spots, guns, sounds, perks, mini map and skulls showing kills you realize that there is a lot more going on and it is a very competitive and skillful game.

    Look at good players and see how consistent their scores are. Its not a game of luck and when you get a team playing together it is amazing and intuitive.

    The way the match making is working nearly all the players on my multiplayer games are Irish and I am getting great connections in all my games. I don't remember any of the previous games matching you with so many local players.

    I would love a map with longer site lines too. Would like to do some bit of sniping that isn't quickscoping. Afgan or something similar would be class :)


    Loving the matchmaking tho. Getting put with loads of English and Irish players which is quality

    Sandy said something about maps returning from old games in his new video. Possibly Crash, Crossfire, Highrise, Overgrown and Strike

    Hopefully crash won't come back. Fairly sick of it now. Overgrown too I've had enough of. The rest won't bother me tho.
    Would love to see bloc. That was a class map. :)

    I was really hoping for countdown or bog. Even shipment would be sweet. The carnage


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭zero19


    Bloc was a great map, would love to see that back.


  • Registered Users Posts: 895 ✭✭✭Dubba


    Love to see Highrise back :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,074 ✭✭✭✭Liam O


    no COD 4 maps, especially not the ones they made us pay for in MW2 again. Give me Afghan and Wasteland, they're the only maps from previous games I want due to there being no wide open maps in this.

    Bakaara is my favourite sniping map I think...

    ground war domination on shipment is the funniest thing you'll ever play on COD, you just cant get annoyed cos its so insane, I remember playing a game with some boardsies one night and I dont think anyone finished with less than 50 kills, it was utter insanity from start to finish, nothing but triple and multikills all over the place.


  • Registered Users Posts: 456 ✭✭Bonesy.


    So many Irish people on its unreal! last year alls i got were French, Spanish and Americans, I see [IRE*] is quite a popular clan tag aswell now compared to the usual [EIRE] and people are leveling up unbelieveably fast! Really enjoying the game, so glad it didn't go the same direction as BlOps, hated the money thing in that..


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,975 ✭✭✭iMuse


    When its going good the game is great but then other times its the most frustrating cod yet. I would almost rather be noob tubed than quick scoped at this stage, takes zero skill in this game to snipe.

    Is anyone else disappointed with the soundtrack to the game? MW2 had some epic music but this is nowhere near as good.

    it has its moments, the multiplayer music definitely isnt as good though, I miss the Spetnasz theme from MW2
