    its a horrible idea

    i selected that class by accident today and i actually got Advanced UAV and i had no right of getting it. I was being slaughtered but yet i get theses killstreaks, is that even fair?

    they confirmed QS was back 3 months ago because it was what the community wanted?!?!?!?!?
    pandering to the 5yr olds again is all they did...
    once the campaign and spec ops are done this gets traded in... first one ever to be traded in

    Not surprised. WAW had a number of small but great improvements over MW that IW just stubbornly ignored for MW2.

    The following piece of text is lifted from the IGN review has really cemented my decision on not buying this...
    This package doesn't have rewards that are as offensively-focused as the Assault package, but all kills carry over between spawns. This gives less-skilled players a way to contribute to the fight, and will hopefully give clans and groups ways to better specialize their players into a cohesive team unit. It's a great new feature, and showcases how Call of Duty offers one of the most varied multiplayer shooter experiences around.

    The bit in bold literally made me lol, the only new multiplayer feature they list in their review is followed up with "offers one of the most varied multiplayer shooter experiences around." Are they ****ing kidding me???

    And it's not even a new feature they just changed an old one. IGN jumping on the CoD bandwagon again, it's disgraceful, I knew they were bad but that's just pure garbage journalism.

    Its all headless chicken stuff, maps are too big and have a million rooms, you can be killed from every direction. Too many killstreaks going on. Also full of campers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 711 ✭✭✭battser


    WTH do you expect from IGN! They have gladly put up any bad news about BF they could find. Not one bad word on that site about modern warfare they are suckin the penis big time!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 770 ✭✭✭EIREHotspur


    Dissapointed with it tbh.

    Badd issues with servers....dissconnects......not too fond of the maps so far either.

    I know, i prefer when my fps games funnel all the enemies towards me in a corridor. different rooms? pah!


    jesus what a bizarre complaint

    but cod is varied, look at the amount of gun/perk/killstreak combinations you can have, and how many game modes ir has. you can say the same about any other mp game if thats the case.

    The game has barely changed since 2007 and there have been 4 games since all sticking to the exact same formula with very minor changes.

    How is that a varied multiplayer experience exactly? And this churn out is the worst offender lifting pretty much everything directly from MW2 and adding nothing new to the series apart from in depth stats which you need to pay for. :rolleyes:

    Liking it so far, completed the campaign. Not sure I prefer it over mw2 but mw1 was def best campaign from the three. It certainly did convey a sense of ww3 pretty well though and I think thats what it set out to do. It didnt let up for a second.

    MP seems good, maps are a tad small for my liking but the gunplay is solid, stalker is brilliant. Such a subtle perk but in these early days it makes such a diff to just be able keep ADS while you learn the maps. Hit detection is a million times better than MW2. Played for a while there and didnt once feel bested by someone having a better connection to the host. I kinda preferred the killstreaks from mw2 though, sure they were over powered but they were fun to use. I just dont get that same buzz from these killstreaks atm - granted I am no where near good enough yet to brave the higher ones. Tis nice to be rewarded for team playing now not only in terms of pointstreaks but in actual gameplay. This time round it does genuinly seem the better team wins....generally.

    I meant there are a million different places where a camper could be hiding:rolleyes: Play cod4 and you'll see what I mean. There is only so many places a person can be hiding.

    I wouldn't entirely agree with the second part of your statement there.
    COD4 was varied pretty much everything after it has been the same generally speaking
    Its the same old used and abused stuff being brought out and in no way does MW fall into the same bracket as say BF (closet rival). They are diff games but at least dice have accomplished something in the sense where they listen to their communities, make the changes quick, they have added an unreal amount of stuff to BF3. Everything about battlefield 3 and the frostbite engine even on console is different and innovative when compared to previous BF games. Nothing innovative of one or two extra game modes that will get stale eventually and renewing an old engine.

    I still like cod because I like the two experiences you get with both games but there has to be only so much of all you hardcore MW fans can take for your 50 quid. For all your loyalty to the series you get fuk all in return. I don't feel hard done by cause I know what to expect and I just enjoy it for what it is.

    BTW who's c0ck is the guy who gave the review on IGN suckin from IW :rolleyes:

    Its really a chore to play this game for me

    I havent played a mp game on the consoles for some time so I forgot about the host crap and eventually not finding a host

    Iv been a huge fan of the series but this diabolical game has destroyed the franchise for me. They are just selling the brand name now instead of a great gaming experience. The maps are dreaful tbh, if I had Claustrophobia id be in trouble.

    Iv said it numerous times now but it keeps getting worse and worse for me but the graphics are ancient looking, absolutely dyer stuff. When you look at stunning games likes uncharted 3, its a real shame they rather just shove out the same old engine, knowing the brand name will sell it

    The assault and support stuff is a load of nonsense

    The perks Assassin, Blind Eye is just another ghost. Did they not know that this perk was hated in black ops?

    No scoping and heart beat crap is back

    If they are going to do a reboot of mw2, why not do it with a proper game like cod4?

    Is it that hard to get a new engine, dedicated servers, listen to the community ?

    That's a hard one to answer gonzovision

    I didnt think it would be this bad

    Well installed it.

    Performance is weird to say the least... I run bf3 on high with very good fps on largest maps with 64 people. Mw3 get really stupid shattering in the begginig of each map and now and then my fps can drop to 0.

    Single player campaing is like good action movie. Really Impresive and cool settings you put in to. Though it really felt like Rambo movie and very americanised. I just felt like " **** yeah! USA! " 2 people destroy the best Russian submarine and all Russian fleet. 2 people, I **** you not.

    Multiplayer.... No dedicated servers... Awesome. "I win button" - instant knife kill from half of the map. Maps felt so tiny. I felt very uncomfortable ( if that makes sence, fobia of small spaces etc ). I felt like spamming bullets most of the time. Oh yeah, it crashed after round too...

    Then I went back to bf3 64 map in bazaar.... Felt like home...

    I will give it a go again, but I already see that i won't be a comman guest in bf3.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,752 ✭✭✭Bohrio


    Another thing lads... I think I am going mad...

    For some reason I keep hearing the cuckoo sound {like the one a wall clock makes every hour} during multiplayer... you know what I mean? am I loosing it?
