    Would you believe the exact same thing happened to me earlier on!! I can't remember which map it was, I think it was Village. Someone fired a Javelin at a Cobra before my stinger. I ran away not thinking anything of it next of all I get blown out of it. I sat there looking at the screen in disbelief :confused: :pac: Must see if I can get it from my theatre as well.

    Someone falling into final stand then panic knifing you in the leg to kill you is as bad!

    How anyone thought that C4/ deadmans hand was a good idea is beyond me

    I've used dead mans hand and its okish at best. The C4 on its own however comes in very handy on Dom. Drop it near a cap, when u hear the enemy are capping said cap, BOOM!! :D

    Sorry I ment the death streak, C4 can be effective

    As for the bold part... :eek: I hope your not one to give out about campers, quickscopers, head glitches etc because deadmans hand and final stand are just as bad IMO

    To be perfectly honest, i don't give a sh!t about any of those issues, so the game has faults, everything does. Yes it is super frustrating at times (especially the spawns) but at the end of the day, what do we all do? We still play the game and we will continue to play the game as its fun, head wrecking at times yes, but so much fun.

    EDIT: Oh and C4 can be extremely effective :pac:

    Lag obviously. it makes the game unplayable at times. In 15 years of gaming its probably the worst I have ever seen. Despite almost all western countries now having a fiber backbone. We should be seeing improvements in gaming not this nonsense. lag compensation never works anyway, its far to problematic. At least with the old system one host was all you had to worry about. Now it seems like your playing a team of them.

    Spawns are even worse. COD players love to bitch about this and that, but spawns have been a consistent complaint since forever and they seem to have made it even worse this time.

    general weapon balance. Any weapon should have an up and down side. Snipes don't have any down side.Consistent 1 shot at all distances, scopes in as quick as a SMG???? spamable at close ranges. Shotguns are terrible, so inconstant (though this may be the lag) akimbo fmg have better distance that the spas with range?????type95 is still a 2 hit kill close up? it should loose to the smg's every time at close range. Thats the type of trade off/balance you need in a game.

    Maps. In case anyone missed it the maps are designed to maximize the support package and nerf the assault package. Thats why the stealth bomber got such a massive boost from mw2. Even in buildings it can kill you. The pred now gets a very low angle, mostly only allowing you to see 3/4, sometimes 1/2 the map. AC130's have the same problem, very low angle making it hard to hit people, not to mention all the buildings and mountains in the way. I have got 3 ac130's and struggled to break 50 kills in a game. So it begs the question, why have them in there in the first place.

    Support package. Stealth bomber is a kill streak not a support streak for a start. Far to easy to get. EMP lasts a full 60secs. just nonsense. 30 is plenty for a free streak. SAMS are making the assault package useless. Yes it was in Blops but you had to string kills to get it, and give up a lethal streak. Now you don't. Also because the streak dose not reset people don't mind dying. its very hard to play aginsted someone who does not care if they die or not. They should only stack for 2 deaths then reset.

    "We have listened to the community" Robert bowling

    Like f**k. death streaks are back and worse than ever. Cheap kills for the noobs. Explosives are back to, even after the mayhem they caused in MW2. Blast shield is ok, but I have died from a javelin even with it on??? tac inserts. again they were abused in mw2 for boosting and people are at it again, IW just don't seem to learn! Snipers especially abuse this. they lay the tac in a obscure part of the map. if you kill them they spawn in and get the revenge kill. I have noticed its now being used to spawn trap teams as well, this WILL ruin the game.

    The game in general is unfinished. I get kicked from games for no reason. massive lag spikes and general glitches in almost every game. Its was rushed to market. 7 title updates in the first 6/7 weeks says it all not to mention all the hot fixes. They had 2 years to develop this and its simply not ethical asking for money for a unfinished product. I also suffer the matchmaking issue, 70% of games (when it eventually finds a game) it only gives me a 2 bar for some reason. So i have to quit and try find another. I can search for half a hour to find a game with a decent connection. Its has still not been addressed.

    Lag is really getting on my nerves... is so bad that sometimes I will be playing search on a random lobby... couldnt hit a single person and in the killcams I am nowhere close to where its showing... so I leave before I get angry... then I realize I was the host... so I say ... weird... then I am thrown back again in the same lobby and end up killing 10 people in 2 rounds???

    Also hate the music 1 minute to the end of each round and I hate not being able to lower the volumen as everytime is on some fecker will sneak behind me while I am not able to soundwhore him... also everytime you increase your rank the sounds it makes is like if I have win the lotto or something, again, for 10-20 seconds I can't hear a thing... very annoying

    I haven't played mw3 in over a month at this stage. That video is part of the reason why, along with lag, sh*t maps, boosting, and just the huge amount of frustration I feel every time that I've quit it.


    It starting to dawn on me that I've missed a lot of great games in the last few years while playing cod. Sick of it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 321 ✭✭Socialist_Pig


    spawned twice tonight on top of claymore's!!and wasnt using tac insert either.

    In fairness even though whats going on in that video is ridiculous,this spawning problem is not unique to MW3.Spawn trapping in demo was also a problem in Black Ops.Especially on the smaller maps like Nuketown and Firing Range.Ive seen guys get huge killstreaks in Black Ops by just aiming in one spot and having enemies continuously spawn in front of them.

    I cant get over how unfinished this game looks and how much bull**** the cod community was fed, lying through their teeth! for all the money they rake in they could have change/improved everything. Talk about penny pinching, fare enough there a buisness but c'mon, some consideration for your millions of costumours.
    I mean they even use the same emblems, titles etc.. from when i played it a couple of times, ok some new ones but were just lazy and used the old ones.
    The worst part is the next cod will sell even better again given its easy-fun to play rep. Now im getting it for christmas and will enjoy it cause im not the most serious of gamer when it comes to cod more so for the craic with friends but a huge amount of people take it very serious.
    Black ops is still the better of this and mw2 IMO. Fun to play, enjoyable and not half as much annoying things in it. Ill play it away but will no doubt sink more time into skyrim and that other fps..

    no theatre lobbies?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,222 ✭✭✭Irishmaster


    What bright spark at IW decided to put Dom in Mercenaries??? I play merc to not play dom and to just play tdm and kill confirmed! Ive enjoyed all the past cods and never traded or sold any of them but seriously this game is a joke. I may break that trend and sell this junk! Im not one to complain about lag, spawns, overpowered guns, hit detection etc etc. They are all fine to me. Dont care about the guns being overpowered, just use them when you unlock them, simple! Deathstreaks? Who cares, you rarely die by them! All the maps need to be deleted! :) Thank christ i didnt spend a fortune on the hardened edition, imagine all you guys with it and they release more of the same crappy maps! Lol!
    I never thought id say this but Treyarch have indeed taken over the king of cods title and my fave cod is cod4. I think they should just re-release cod 4 minus all the hacked lobbies! :)
    The maps in mw3 are just boring and lack character!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,152 ✭✭✭✭KERSPLAT!


    I'm delighted to have DOM in the Merc playlist, I love DOM but playing alone against a party of even 3 or 4 is hard never mind a full party, this gives me a chance in every game :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,520 ✭✭✭✭AdamD


    Couldn't take your opinion seriously when all you want to play is tdm/kill confirmed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,222 ✭✭✭Irishmaster


    On the positive note there is 1 thing that they did introduce that is great, thats kill confirmed! Seeing floating gold tags just makes you wanna grab them even though you die going for them! I think i would have traded this garbage game in already if it didnt have that gametype!

    What type of a thing is that to say to somebody?

    So what, he doesn't like objective based game modes? You should be happy he is playing Kill Confirmed and Team Deathmatch instead of playing other game modes just for kills like most people.


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


    In fairness, there should be a Mercenary playlist as it is containing TDM and Kill Confirmed and a Mercenary Objective playlist, Mosh Pit style of course. Unlike BOPS, I've probably played more on my own than in a party due to lag and all that jazz, so it'd be nice to have that option.

    In saying that, I don't mind Dom being added to the current Mercenary playlist but I can understand some being miffed at it's inclusion.

    Look at Irishmaster's post. Some rather just play a TDM/FFA style of game type where it's all about kills, nothing more. I can appreciate where they are coming from. Objective game types just aren't their thing, thus in inclusion of Dom is a nuisance for them.
