    Having played for over 48hrs now all I can say is its a steaming pile of ****e. Worst cod of all time no signs of getting better. Played my last lag filled game a few mins ago. Sick of spawns, worthless hit detection, playing with 5 other campers on my team so basically trying to win a game of domination on my own.

    Region matchmaking is also pissing me off. Back to black ops now because at least I know where I stand with that game i.e if you are on a three bar it plays like a three bar not like MW3 where a 4 bar plays like a 1 bar at times.

    ye defo the worst cod in years, they some how managed to just make a disaster of a game.

    EMP - It's possibly one of the worst things I've seen in the game. Along with alot of other bullshiite, The EMP takes the biscuit.

    Why?

    When an EMP is called in by a team mate, for 3 seconds, everyone on said team see's a white screen, while nothing happens on the enemy screen (from what I've seen in kill cam's). I've been in a few gun fights where the enemy gets EMP'd I end up getting screwed cause all I can see is a big white screen, and this chap just squanders on along and puts a bullet in my head, all the while me thinking he is still 10 feet away with a white screen.

    Its a fuking joke.

    It is great, but when ya are in the middle of a gun fight with someone and it goes off, its hard to see where anyone is, and inevitably lose the gun fight...

    Thats what my complaint is about..

    I see your point. We use the clan tag EMP sometimes and everyone switches it on, so its ten times worse then :P

    You are right - they should be "stunned", not the team using it.

    On the plus side

    Other team + inbound Osprey + my EMP = lulz!

    Elect a clown... Expect a circus

    I love holding on to an EMP till you see something worthwhile taking down.

    Best time to EMP is a few minutes right after an EMP cuz their killstreaks are there waiting to be used and then baam.

    I'll be on later for some EMPing

    Everlast how you get that title "lights out"...so fitting with EMP as a clan tag

    Thats exactly it. It seems unfair that the team that got the EMP in the first place, or even the one person on the team that gets the EMP, the whole team then gets what feels like penalised by a big white screen, its lead to deaths a few times for me, and more than likely others too..

    I'm not complaining about the use of them or nothing, they are a great kill streak, I know from experience that they are very disorientating, not having the mini map for a min, the red dot being gone and trying to go by memory where the middle of the red dot is. Its a great kill streak.

    It's just unfair that the team that got the killstreak gets punished for 3 seconds by it being called in. It should be the enemy that see's a big white or "stunned" screen..

    Because of the EMP, I always have at least one class with iron sights, just so I can aim properly when we get hit. Having the RDS and then no reticule puts me out no end.

    Another thing I noticed last night, got killed a few times cause of it, an it's so stupid.

    "Last Stand" was supposed to be taken outta the game, but last night, playing some game mode, I was shooting some fella, he would drop into last stand, and instead of shooting, he simply just threw down is C4. Blowing himself up, killing both me and him in the process, and taking the kill away from me, an giving it as a suicide!

    Fecking game is sickening.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 124 ✭✭ConorBF1


    One thing that annoys me is when you shoot someone and he enters Last Stand, but then someone else finishes him off and they get the kill and you don't.

    Should be like it was in Black Ops.

    "death man's hand" are something......it's a deathstreak.

    Played the game there for 1hr and had to turn it off. The lag is fcuking chronic.
    Just got killed by a guy, where on his screen he got about 6 or 7 hitmarkers before I died. On my screen I got hit by 1 bullet and dropped. He was using the mp7 from a long way off tbf.

    Are they actually doing anything about it? or is this what the game is going to be like for good.

    Having zero time to react when a guy is 50 yards infront of you emptying an smg into your chest.........is not good imo.
    Plus I thought lag comp was supposed to screw the people with good connections not the people with ropey ones :confused:

    Think it was finish off someone by lamping a flash grenade off their head.

    It was exactly my thoughts on putting the emblem and title together :D

    I was just being sarcastic since people were trying to tell me it was a myth just last week.

    In theory its suppose to level the playing field, but its all over the place atm it seems. From what i've experienced it generally favors someone with a weaker connection.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,360 ✭✭✭NeVeR


    Can you not carry over kill streak rewards. ?

    I was playing Demolition and I run 3,4,5, as i normally get killed alot lol.. cos i'm a team player..

    I got 2 UAV's / 2 Care packages and 2 Missiles but when i started the second stage All i had was 1 missile and 1 care package


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 122 ✭✭coadyd


    I noticed that last night , got a care package and died I didn't use it started to kill again got another so i went t find a quiter place to get my care packages and only got one.. total bull**** ..

    The private game mode options - Jauggernaut, Drop Zone, Infected and even two from BLOPS (One in the chamber, Gun game) are not available to play on the public servers?

    WTF? Totally pointless.

    Even worse when you are on a high killstreak to get a juggernaut (assault) and you save it for later, you get your streak up again and you no matter what you do, save it or use it you will always only have one since Juggernaut kills dont go towards KS unless you cap objectives = bullsh*t.

    so many things wrong with this game i just dont want to play it . In contrast with BLOPS I could not get enough of it when i got killed i just kept going and turned it around but with MW3 I have often got the first few shots in and still got killed way to many times . serves me right for paying for a good connection .

    mercenary. I'd say since this game has came out I've had two games of the mercenary gamemode. Everytime I search it just says "no games found"

    Does this happen to anyone else?


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    In cod4 they introduced killstreaks, an awful idea.
    In mw2 they introduced deathstreaks, a ridiculously awful idea.

    Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse; support streaks. Every game is full of crap players getting advanced radar, stealth bombers and EMPs, why? because they've been in the game more than 5 minutes. Worst thing ever introduced to cod.

    I use the support streaks mostly. Play with a group of pretty good players. So when one of them goes 32-4 at least I feel like I'm contributing with my 10-10 but also with my recon drone, adv radar and sam turret. I think they're a good addition as it lets us "lesser" players feel we are actually part of the win!:cool:

    That's super. Still makes the game absolutely dire. Somebody going 10-10 shouldn't be getting that many things, it just adds to the cluster****.

    Can't all be as good as you ;)

    edit: support streaks make the game dire? Not the cluster fûck maps, lag, match making, over powered guns, underpowered guns, poxy assassin etc...?

    Invisible people going around with assasin on and a silenced gun are really getting to me. They should have made it so you could only have one or the other!!
