    That's it ya, coming to an end now.

    I see they are removing theater mode completely. That might actually be a good thing as hit detection became rubbish after MW2 so hopefully it will be better now again.

    Interesting article in the Guardian today.

    Some of this sounds interesting, some of it merely crowd pleasing.

    Only found out this about this this morning. Genuinely didn't know there was a multiplayer reveal till I opened up my Youtube sub-box!

    Krudler's comment is fairly fitting, days of hundreds of posts after a multiplayer reveal truly are gone.

    The cranked game mode looks good, that aside the rest doesn't interest me at all and considering the last IW game was such a fail and COD games in general just losing that spark, I won't be picking this up. Thankfully, there are other FPS games that I'll get and ones that are available at PS4/XB1 launch too.

    squad mode looks good, lets see how [brds] can do against [tk] or [optic] :-)

    In fairness, I'd still say blops 2 is better than mw3. Mw3 is the definition of plain and average. Solid but uninspiring.

    The connection on mw3 was much better than blops 2 hopefully its similarly good on ghosts.

    I find IW titles play smoother and have better hit detection

    It certainly can't be any worse than MW3. The dullest, most uninspiring game I've ever put into a gaming system.

    Dull yes but also solid.

    I didn't shot around corners as often either in MW3

    MW3>BO2


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,405 ✭✭✭✭AdamD


    Put way more time into MW3 but I'd rate BO2 higher for having league play

    The maps on mw3 were incredibly dire also

    Dome, Bootleg, Arkaden, Hardhat, Seatown, Village, Interchange were decent maps

    Thought Dome, Bootleg and Seatown were average, hardhat a bit below. Arkaden was good. Village and Interchange were horror shows imo.
    Lockdown was up there with Arkaden as the only 2 maps I would actually consider to be good.

    The game will be hugely successful regardless of what they do! The fact that next gen consoles are out this year will also be a massive factor in its success, exposure to 4 of the biggest consoles in history!

    That aside I think Ghosts looks a bit more inspired then the last few COD games. I suppose we will have to wait and see though.

    Ah, I'd be here all day saying why I hate it. I honestly have it at Haze level when it comes to FPS awfulness. Obviously it sold millions of copies, but does nothing to impress me, well.. marketing aside. I think the activity in this forum is quite telling too, post-MW3 onwards as well. Black Ops II was an improvement but not as much as I was hoping for, whether than be over MW3 or the first Black Ops game. I really didn't have high expectations neither.

    Infinity ward games have better connection IMO. But they have way more rubbish that shouldn't be in the game. I prefer mw3 to black ops just because of the specialist class. Black ops 2 is just too boring.


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


    Arkaden and Hardhat were the only decent maps I found in MW3 ^

    Honestly cannot remember the maps names in BOPS II :s I remember I really enjoyed the ones with the Bullet train, shopping center/plaza, yacht and mansion.

    I honestly couldn't pick one MW3 map that I'd even describe as 'passable', they were all terrible. Black Ops 2 aint much better.

    In MW3 I love Dome, Underground, Bootleg, Seatown, Arkaden, Hardhat and Lockdown. Thought Resistance was decent. Village, Mission, Fallen and Carbon were OK. Interchange was good for an aul spawn trap :p

    BLOPs2 I love Hijacked, Standoff, Raid and Slums. Yeman and Plaza are ok, the rest are pretty **** IMO. MW3 definitely had the better maps, again IMO

    Maps in BLOPS II are pretty bad. Raid and Hijacked as you mentioned are ones I like and I used to like Standoff but hate it now.

    Really I only want to play Raid, Hijacked and Nuketown and sometimes Slums. If everyone had the latest DLC pack I'd say Uplink too. I don't like any of the other 7 DLC maps I have.

    On MW3 there's 5 or 6 maps I like. They may all be different shades of brown but I find them nicer to play.

    Yemen was decent, yup.

    All I wanted to play was either Nuketown Playlist or Hardpoint on the vanilla maps, the maps I mentioned namely.

    When they got rid of that playlist originally and err, I soon accidentally resetted my rank in a drunken haze, well my interest with BOPS II deteriorated big time. I'd have probably kept the game had they kept the Nuketown playlist. It seemed real out of the blue that they pulled the plug on it too. Battlefield 3 being excellent also played it's part too.

    Hardpoint was an excellent addition, I'll give Treyarch their props there, even if they got rid of my beloved Sabotage -_-

    Raid,Hijacked,Nuketown,Uplink and Turbine playlist and I'm happy

    Turbine... For someone who constantly moans about snipers that's some map to pick...

    Actually Overflow isn't bad either. Is that what it's called? The one with the overturned bus at B dom and the room everyone camps in over the B flag?
