    He has a face I'd love to punch.

    If true about the dedicated servers on the Elite version you can bet your ass I'll be putting my name down for it.

    Hahaha true he is pretty annoying, but I had to watch the video when i seen it was about MW3.

    It looks like it will be like Halo Waypoint

    Cover system in MW3 = :(

    It was fine in Rainbow Six Vegas but COD doesn't need it.

    I agree, only promotes camping, it doesnt suit the style of the game

    Speculation, and hopefully it will stay that way.

    As highly as I distrust the concept (slowing the game down, not quite COD-like outside of campaign, lack of room for controls, a cover system in a game where cover is penetrable....), the third person mode in MW2 was pretty pants as it was missing a cover system. I would welcome a cover system if and only if it was available in select gamemodes.

    thats a really good point, a 3rd person viewpoint doesnt work with 1st person controls, but give it Gears style cover and 3rd person control system and it would. be a cool way to introduce a few new modes without dicking with the mechanics of the game too much

    I really must be the only one here or who I know who enjoyed 3rd person mode in MW2 :D

    But yeah I agree that when it comes to 3rd person mode a cover system must be implemented. Many of the great 3rd person shooters of the past have it afterall. If the gametype were to return in MW3 hopefully it will be.

    I just hope MW3 doesn't turns into some messy hybrid of a game consisting of MW2, Rainbow 6 and Battlefield.

    I'd agree with Ade that if a cover system were to be included (and if destructible environment was not) that it should be confined to 3rd person.

    I quite enjoyed 3rd person the times I did play it in Mw2, loved throwing a c4 that way.

    I think they definitely need to introduce maybe 1-3 new gametypes. Keep the comp playlist and the merc playlists oh and mosh pit. I'm not asking for much :P

    Take MW2, remove commando, DC and last/final stand, unstackable killstreaks, slap in the blackbird as one, remove heartbeat sensors, new maps, same sound, polish the graphics up a tad, update the menus, new callsigns and emblems, no tac inserion in FFA, finish the Makarov storyline in SP, boom=MW3.

    Why do they never listen to us (the community) and leave in second chance, etc? Do they want to piss us off on purpose or something? :rolleyes:

    its weird because cheap perks only encourage people to play badly, anyone can spam the sh1t out of the map with grenades, takes decent playing skill to get good scores by running and gunning and outplaying the other team.
    You'd think they'd want people to learn how to play the game properly, and by now you'd think they've realised the COD community is full of assholes who just want cheap victories instead of working for it, the amount of boosters and OMA fools shows that (OMA is great when its used properly though)

    guys I dont think this is fake..... the grip on his M4 is a Magpul AFG and they were only made really early this year and end of last year, and he has a heart beat sensor on his RIS rail.... this could be legit

    heartbeat sensor..noooo!

    hey you might know AGB,where would I get a cheap tactical vest, like an airsoft one? I wanna go as Ghost for Halloween this year, have the balaclava, a hoody that would be perfect, get some headphones, combat pants and the tac vest and it should look ok

    Ebay dude. cheap assed ones are there, just look up airsoft vest and youll get tons of hits :)


    After closer inspection and my awesome airsoft knowledge it looks like a PEQ-15 laser unit not a heartbeat sensor, like on the M4 in CoD4.

    still think the all white top is too plain, unless theres something spoilerish as an image that going to go in behind him, like the cover of MW2 with the Capitol Hill building in flames

    could be, the States invades Russia as a backlash from MW2, they hinted at a WWIII take on things, could be the makings of it. roll on the 23rd!
