Any links Muse? Can't find anything

Stop bumming Treyarch. Black Ops had a million more issues on release than mw3. And still did 2 months after release. If mw3 still has issues then, we can compare.

They have apparently failed at patching it for the 2nd time, its still possible to get under from what Ive read. Why don't they just lift the phone and get treyarch to show them how to patch a game properly.

Proper lols

Oh come off it, Blops issues were mostly fixed before they became popular glitches even saw them. I've already been fcuked by the outpost glitches.

I'll give Treyarch that they were on the ball with fixing glitches, there were a few patched the most people didnt even know about like getting out of certain maps.

I used a prestige token for x2 xp but im not getting any. Anyone have any knowledge on this?

Go to Barracks and under total time played, it will have Double XP time left. If it says zero, and you've used a token... you may have spent it on Double Weapon XP, which i'm unsure if it shows up in Barracks.

What about the incredible frame rate issues which lasted a month or two?
What about the fact that 1v1s were 90% randomness due to the connection on the game?

Whos bumming Treyarch? The vast majority of this forum by the looks of things. Thinking Black Ops was a solid working title when it only was after a few months of fixing.

I enabled double xp but iv been earning the normal amount for some reason. Might have changed since i signed out.

Does it have the 2 hour timer in your Barracks?

I seem to remember it took IW about 9 months to patch the rock glitch on fuel.

:P

I'm sure there are things I've forgotten at the time being but....

3 or 4 months to patch akimbo 1887's in MW2.

4 months to patch the UFO Glitch in COD4.

Never patch the blast radius that a large amount of people wanted in COD4, and seemingly sweeping it under the carpet by never addressing it since it's launch in 2007.

A general appalling lack of communication post game release and this time despite having 4 developers on board (4 factoring in Treyarch for the Wii who are doing their job at least).

How people can even have the audacity to have a go at Treyarch for their work when it comes to patching their games (Black Ops at least for me anyways) is laughable

Dues Bellator · 19-11-2011 6:27pm

On my 2nd prestige ,with my token ive unlocked the MP7 , this gun is just beast:D

Akimbo 1887s was patched in under 2 months. Possibly under 1. 100% on that.

thats about 2 months too long. wasnt the care package super fast run glitch around for months as well? and the javelin glitch, which I missed cos I didnt get into multiplayer mw2 for a few months after release.

141_Oscar_Mike wrote: »

MW2.... Care package marker glitch, (Unlimited CP's/Airdrops)
Olympic sprinter glitch with CP marker,
Kamakazi Javelin glitch...

Not sure how long it took them to patch up but yea. Treyarch were always fast when it came to correcting problems.

But you could say the whole West/Zampella issue could have been a factor during that time period.... Maybe.

I'd reckon so, having the head honchos in a bitter war with the publisher probably put fixing glitches on the back burner, still doesnt excuse it though. especially major game ruining glitches. I dont understand why it takes so long for companies to pick up on this stuff in the age of twitter and instant feedback from players. a couple of weeks is acceptable, a gamebreaking glitch months into release isnt.

Patched in early February afaik. I should know having returned to MW2 in mid-late January and it still having ridiculous range.

The way I've always looked at it is that it'd be a valid excuse if Infinity Ward didn't have history with slow as ****e patching and communication. While early doors, MW3 is following the same footsteps. Communication has been shambolic.

AdamD · 19-11-2011 8:30pm

Got mw2 that christmas and it had been patched. Agreed that comms are a joke on this, we have to use skype

Only about banning people in the last day, and before that it was nearly a week! Which is simply crazy for a man who tweeted every 6 hours before it came out.

KERSPLAT! · 19-11-2011 10:39pm

Last night I was playing pretty well, today I can't get a shot off before dying :mad: so pïssed off! Really can't understand it. I'm a pretty average player but today was a joke, one game I went about 8-20 FFS

It's all about the win for me, the K/D just shows I had a bad game, it may sound like an excuse but I believe it was a connection issue, I get hit markers but get killed, that's fine but when I look at the kill cam and it doesn't even show me shooting, I call Böllox! :mad: will be back on for some rage gaming in a while :pac:

Fun is in the winning for me , I'll rather go 10 -20 (objective game) and win than go 20-10 and lose .

does anyone else find it hilarious the way the Spetz announcer pronounces "charlie" its like "we're losing Shharlie!"

DanTheMan91 · 20-11-2011 3:43am

Played for a few hours tonight and reached level 80. The only perks I have left that I need to unlock the pro variant for are Marksman, Extreme Conditioning and Blind Eye.
Used the shotguns for a good few games and they are decreasing my K/D rapidly. Seriously, have Infinity Ward released any news on whether they plan to improve the shotguns?
I also am thinking of giving up on free for all in this game, the spawns are pretty unbelievable at times.
Had a few good games of kill confirmed were I didn't get frustrated, which was a pleasant surprise

KERSPLAT! · 20-11-2011 5:15am

Triple Pred in a fûcking window!! Beast

don't have any of that fancy crap but I'll stick it in my file share!

The banhammer is falling as we speak. 1600 bans issued my IW for "glitching, hacking or cheating".

Also, IW asking all players to use the function to weed out suck players. Patches already in the works for current glitches.

That's great news.

Early morning #MW3 update meetings, lots of important stuff. I'll keep you posted once we wrap. Main priority: Address laggy connections.

what ? How did you work that one out lol...

More games traded in... more people buying preowned, less people buying new.

They don't make money on preowned game sales, games companies lose a huge amount of revenue because of hte preowned market.
