    I agree with a previous poster that said it is getting like the sports games that EA bring out each year.
    Basically reskinned and nothing much new.

    I think COD should make environments more interactive.
    COD is all basically run around and shoot.....how about tanks, jeeps, planes....doors that close...rivers with water that you can actually walk into...environment that you can move aaside and get onto (unlike tables or furniture in some rooms that you can't...stupid.

    New game types...escort a VIP.....execute a VIP....etc

    They are getting lazy.

    You're getting into battlefield territory there, thats why. That's not what COD is about. It is/was about gun vs. gun. .

    Battlefied is great at what it does. . If you haven't played any of them maybe you should pick it up? :)

    On the consoles your right there are quite a few people playing cod4 and mw2(MW2 is only over a year old tho), but i think thats because theres barely anything else that can compete with it, theres no World of warcraft or Warhammer, no quake or unreal, no team fortress or counterstrike and theres no starcraft or HON. I actually find it funny how little choice there is for consoles online(Good quality games)... its really limited, like 2 or 3 good fps games and everything else is sports.


    Anyway.. back on topic... **** noobtubes :D Thats right... i actually got noobed twice today !!! TWICE !

    Actually there is both Quake and Unreal, but I wouldn't recommend either :)
    There is also Team Fortress.

    Bingo. I'm all for interactive environments but jeeps, planes, tanks... just no.

    Yep, No Vehicles. That is not what COD is about.

    Battlefield compared to COD is very poor IMO.

    Well I'm afraid they need to change it to be a bit different because unless they do people will not spend a year playing COD like they did MW2.

    With a third company now going to make a COD game....something has to give.

    How is that an issue with balance?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,089 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    Im sitting here and absolute gutted

    I was snipping in the villa and man I was on a ****ing roll, the idiots kept going up stairs and and just kept hitting them off, for the first time using a sniper gun I got a chopper gunner and was just about to use it when my ps3 froze

    its the 3rd time this has happened me within 1hr

    Im really gutted tbh, how a game like this makes your ps3 froze is beyond me and how they can release a game like this makes it even worse

    :(:mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,324 ✭✭✭spider_pig


    tonight im having the worst games ever the lag is unreal im throwing grenades and there not leaving my hand for a few seconds
    i run and then they go off coming over my head
    the majority of my kills are becoming assists
    after i take my finger off the trigger bullets still do becoming from my gun care packages some times fail to leave my hand
    players are jumping across the map there in one position one min and there seconds later they've popped a few yards up its doing my head in here :mad:

    I'm back playing MW2, Black Ops just isn't on par with it. Maybe I'll go back in a month or two when everything is ironed out but until then....


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 9,425 ✭✭✭FearDark


    Had to turn Black Ops off there, the lag is just appaling. Im on PS3, its so glitchy and just crap all round, anyone else having problems? Is it any better on the Xbox? Lag issues?

    I do love emptying an entire clip on someones face/chest only for them to stab me. Or ducking in behind something only to see on the killcam that infact I was nowhere near ducking behind anything. Im raging. MW2 back on now and no problems...well aside from the usual me just being a poor player :P

    Ya I think it well documented the issue's the ps3 users are suffering.
    I haven't had any real problems on the xbox myself

    Its practically unplayable. Its been a solid three weeks of absolute rage at the TV. It cant be like that for everyone on the PS3 network surely, there are still people winning free for all deathmatch after 4 minutes. Im lucky to break 20 kills after the ten minutes. Pop in MW2 and I go back to pretty much winning or 2nd in every game. Xbox could be on the christmas wish list... It'll be my third and hopefully it'll last!

    Being on the PS3 I thought I had escaped most of the issues. sure there was lag here or there but nothing major but it seems to have imploded today. Biggest issue is the PS3 keeps stalling at the menus in between games. It's ****ing annoying.

    Has the game stalled on you mid way through a match by any chance? Anytime it happens to me I seem to be winning... which is greeted with a tirade of abuse at that shiny black box of shíte that sits under my telly.

    RAWRR!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 9,425 ✭✭✭FearDark


    Dont even get me started on the "random" disconnects and it throws everyone back to the lobby. Happened me maybe 5 times out of 20 odd games today, game over.

    Oh and while I'm on a megabitch, why doesnt it feckin tell you when someone destroys your equipment anymore?? I would like to know when my claymore is dead thanks. Oh and while Im on the subject... absolutely love it when people stroll through your claymore for it to go off three seconds later. Love it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 164 ✭✭theothers108


    Cant even get into the call of duty forums,the game is a joke for ps3 lag,frame rate, freezing all the time.Its great we got a half arsed game ported from the xbox,just shows money talks about game developers

    I'm getting a lot more 'Lost connection' recently. Then when I go out it freezes for about half a minute and then goes to normal, freezes again etc.

    Fix the game you lousy tools or I riot :pac: :mad: :D :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Well if a whole clip didn't take him down and 2 bullets in the leg took me down I don't think that's very balanced,do you???I know what your getting at but what's the point in calling it a more balanced game if the damage is so inconsistent


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,686 ✭✭✭Kersmash


    Thats becuase of your connection.

    Nah man,believe me I'm the first to blame the lag,watched the killcam and it was definitely not lag,I could understand if it was 2 blasts of a shotgun but 2 aug bullets in the leg just doesn't add up to a kill.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15 Trevaldo


    Yeah this connection rejected and migrating host bullsh*t is ridiculous! I keep just getting kicked out and back into the game lobby. I was on a 24 kill, 1 death killstreak in a game last night and got kick out with 1 minute left in the game! I lost all my game stats, contracts and challenges that I had completed in that game. I swear I nearly through the PS3 out the window and I think I broke my controller. There has to be a fix coming soon! :mad:

    i could :pac:

    actually just to clarify though im assuming once you jump off the bridge into the water you'l simply leave the ps3 in the river and climb back out unscathed
