[CoD MW3] General News and Discussion

Havent been on in a while and this was the first page I came too! Very interesting conversation on TREYARCH vs IW.
I think both are good studios, however both have their flaws.

MW2/MW1 hit detection is far superior. By a long, long, long way. I will give you an example, playing a game of FFA yesterday, I centred a WA2000 on a players head, from 3 feet away, and the bullet failed to connect. Fundamental flaw. This lack of a basic and imperative gameplay mechanic, quite frankly makes me want to beat all TREYARCH coders. To within an inch of their life.

IW, Jesus where to start. LMC, Noob tubes, OMA Glitch, poor online support, hacker riddled, boosters, quick scopers, the list goes on for a while.

However, I still prefer MW2.

If I was designing MW3 I would make a few changes.

-2 Noob tubes - For the entire game. Force people to use a weapon and skill. -One shot kills for heavy sniper rifles, especially the Barrett. Reduce Ammo available for the Barrett if its a guaranteed one shot kill.
-Allow modular weapon customization: I want more than 2 attachments.
-Bigger maps I would love to see maps that are larger, I think given the scale of some Black Ops Maps ( Array, Berlin Wall ) that this may already be sorted! Also if a magnifier is now an attachment, as seen in the reveal trailer, its probably needed! Bigger maps? I hope.
-Dedicated servers. Im not in anyway familiar with computing on an advanced level, however if it removes the dreaded host advantage, I am all for it.
-More guns. There really wasnt enough last time around, I want a **** ton of guns. There are more than 4 sniper rifles available on the market, please include them!

I hope I stir some thought, I dont post often hence the essay.

Food for thought on the IW/3ARC debate. Infinity Ward is not making this game. The infinity ward they have now is a mercenary group, not the core group who built it. Imagine going to see the Beatles and the only original Beatle performing is Ringo. A bit **** to say the least.
