    Big maps and no ground war especially, playing on large-ish maps like Derail with 6v6 was painful on MW2. Is stopping power back in this?

    No stopping power, there is a perk called Deadeye though that increases your chance of dealing more damage the longer your streak (and the longer the streak, the higher the probability gets), so basically on a long kill streak you get stopping power :mad:

    Deserves to be mentioned that as much as I like the smaller maps, maps like Nuketown and Rust from MW2 were retarded. Incredibly easy to spawntrap.

    Rust rarely ever came up on playlists though, I was in a hacked domination game on that a few times, great craic :pac:

    I prefer large maps to be a sniper as automatic rifles are to accurate at long distances unless you where quick scoper in the last games sniper class was pointless.

    The sightlines in most of the games post-MW2 was sh1te as well. the map design in that was way better than the Treyarch games.

    No stopping power is just silly. You need something like that to discourage the overuse of Ghost

    I disagree, stopping power has no place in the game

    In what way? When they 'removed' it, they essentially just added it to every class for free. Since mw3 the bullet damage has been as if you already have stopping power attached. Before you had to choose between stopping power and uav jammer/other ghost equivalents. Now there's no incentive to not use them.

    Hit markers are what annoy me,

    you shoot someone running away from you

    3 or 4 hit markers they then turn n kill you with one bullet.

    True, although everyone ran it in MW2 so I didn't really have a problem with dying just as quick in MW3 and future CODs. I meant mainly a stopping power perk on top of how quick you die now is bull **** (so in effect, Deadeye is like stopping power squared :o). Soundwhoring is also really prevailent in this game and shouldn't exist in the game at all, ruins it. Dead silence does nothing.

    I personally never had a problem with Ghost/Assassin, I think I'm one of the few people who didn't mind it :eek:

    Aren't gamestop supposed to be doing a trade up programme . IF you buy it now for the price difference you can get it on the new consoles .

    FFS I'm hearing Ghosts has been hacked on PS3 already with tools going around with maxed out weapons and prestiges! Why does this happen every year?

    Just watched a video there and it looks like commando/lunge knifing I'd back...

    Some very sad individuals think its fun. Then some even worse individuals fuel their fire by purchasing these things.

    Pity nothing is done about it, but activision dont care, they have their money. All they can do is ban the account. I wish they brought out a console wide Terms of Service in collaboration with XBL and PSN stating that the console will be locked down, or dns level ip address would be locked down if hacking is reported and proven. Surely its easy to see with unrealistic stats.

    Yeah let's hope this type of thing will die down when the next gen. consoles come out! I will be reporting all cheats as and when I come across them!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,426 ✭✭✭Neon_Lights


    I know as will I, but remember folks just because i'm good, doesn't mean i'm cheating.

    I'm the GOAT (Greatest of all time)

    Just use the MSBS gun before it's patched.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 152 ✭✭kevin2800


    preordered ghosts on gamestop website with the express post,I should get it tomorrow ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,426 ✭✭✭Neon_Lights


    You could have just went to your local gamestop and got it tonight haha?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,584 ✭✭✭NoviGlitzko


    To those who don't know, I was just chatting to someone from Xtra Vision and they are doing the next gen upgrade as well. You get the physical copy of the PS3 disc and you are given a code to upgrade to the PS4. You have to enter the code by March 2014 apparently. This will work just as the PS4 version will work.

    The code costs an additional 10e while the game costs 59.99e. Your saving a tener from Gamestop if you want to choose this option. Not sure if its the same with Tesco's etc.

    First Impressions on the Game, mix of good and bad, I can feel a sense of dissapointment though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,278 ✭✭✭x43r0


    Every map i walk onto feels like interchange/aftermath/cracked.


    This part worries me the most :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,232 ✭✭✭ferrigan101


    Would anyone know if the Gamestop midnight openings are for pre order only? Or can I just rock up and pay tonight?

    I pre-ordered, but I would assume they have surplus copies.
