    All I hope is that when the game is released everyone gets reset to rank 1

    doubt it, you'll see prestige level players running around on tuesday I reckon

    Not very impressed with the campaign so far. Too much reliance on set pieces, it doesn't feel like they learned anything from MW2. The American characters are boring as all hell and the New York setting comes just too soon after Crysis 2 to really have any punch. The guns don't have any sense of heft and combat is weirdly unsatisfying, two things I always thought previous CODs did well.

    played mw2 there for a change but its just not fun to play. trying to get kills with 2 harriers and a chopper in the air takes away everything, would of been a great game if it wasnt for that.

    having to duck and cover from them instead of trying to get kills is annoying.

    is mw3 defeintly going to focus on the gun v gun battles? like cod 4 and even balck ops to an extent...

    whats the max amount of killstreaks in the air allowed?

    thats a really good feature they have added, it will make games alot more competitive

    na man this is stupid, it takes away from the gun v gun battles they are raving on about.

    so now we are gona have someone in a corner shooting down spy planes, its gona be so easy to get your killstreak.

    what a joke in fairness, iv a feeling the multiplayer is going to be exactly like mw2 to fuc*ing hectic with too much going on at once.

    I actually don't really mind if ranks don't get reset. A few people having some more guns or pro perks won't really have a noticeable effect. Although I would prefer if they did reset the ranks mainly just to show they're doing for the game and care.

    the guys shooting down uavs will only get other support streaks like uavs and ballistic vests, they wont be getting pavelows and stuff as their streaks dont reset on death, offensive ones do

    i see , that sounds better... but i still think it should be that you actually have to go out and earn a kill for your killstreak it kind of defeats the purpose.

    Conceptually I prefer this new system, it rewards all kinds of team play, not just one facet of it which is kills. Besides exp there was no real incentive for most people to shoot down air support and this meant people often ran out into the light of sight of an Ac130/Chopper/Harrier etc numerous times, giving the enemies further kills. Let's face it the average CoD player is a bit greedy and tends to ignore the objectives, offering a bonus for shooting down air support may encourage them to shoot down air support, benefiting themselves but more crucially the team as a whole.

    Good slayers can slay and it won't affect them, those that want to shoot down air support as it's released should and will be rewarded.

    Well .. one can hope :p

    I'm really looking forward to this, but I'm not going to get to play it for ages. In college during the week, so I won't have my PC, then the first weekend it's out I'm in Dublin for Eirtakon. :(

    in the in game scoreboard their is no k/d in tdm and no caps/defends in domination :S in my opinion they were great features in black ops...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,958 ✭✭✭Mr. Rager


    No score per minute either


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,975 ✭✭✭iMuse


    Or combat record, that might be a good thing though as people can't tell how good / bad the other team is in the pre game lobby

    Is there no way to look at their Elite profile in lobby?

    Nope from what Ive read anyway, you have to back out to the MP menu abit like theater mode in B Ops to access elite.

    IW said they dont want them considered killstreaks anymore, its pointstreaks now, capping flags, planting/defusing bombs, all contribute, I like this idea it rewards people who bother their arse to play the objective instead of camping for kills. the guy who sits in a corner with a baby monitor and silenced gun gets harriers and I'm breaking my ass trying to keep pressure on a bomb site and get fook all except xp. if they pull it off and balance it this could be the COD game that changes the greediness of the community

    I truly hope there is no K/D score in the games! Having a K/D score just promotes ppl to play like a killwhor!

    If there is no K/D score in-game and instead you get points for playing the objective then people will play the objective more!! The reason people killwhor is so they can say (win or loose) I came top, I'm the best!!
    Fcuk off you tw@!!

    Might try my luck tomorrow at Gamestop, see can I grab it early, might as well try.
    i'm not quite sure but I think it depends on where you are living whether you get it early or not, a guy on another thread from cork put a picture up of his hardened edition, in which he pre ordered from gamestop. I'm in dublin and haven't even got the 'shipped' confirmation off of gamestop yet.

    I don't mind it in TDM and FFA, normal and hardcore mode tbh. What is really baffling to me is the removal of captures and defends in Domination if true. Captures, defends, score and connection/ping are the only things I'd have on the scoreboard for Domination, maybe include enemy air support taken out too. Sub that for plants and defuses in Sabotage and Demolition too. Subtle little things are a nice touch.

    At least it's being noted in gameplay, objective work being rewarded I mean.

    On a positive note, somewhat excited for MW3 finally. Still somewhat meh about it in the long term. But short term, for a few months at least it'll occupy my interest at the very least.

    Is everyone going to prestige in MW3? I have reached the highest prestige in every previous Call of Duty but I think this time I will stay at level 80 and level up all my guns and complete challenges. I hope I don't get bored after a month or two.
