    Best gun ever.
    Have you tried the new spas?

    yeah its kinda pants :( thought the small maps would be made for shotties but they're not as powerful as they should be, 2 shots for a kill all the time. the AA12 is still the dogs bollocks though, it sounds like it does in MW2 in the mp, in the single player it sounds ****ing amazing

    OK couple of new complaints!

    1 No Nuketown/Rust/Dome type small and simple type maps
    2 Gungame is nowhere near as good as it was in Black Ops, it plays full size maps no cordened off ones like in Black Ops and the final weapon is a joke no need for any kind of skill to shoot a rocket up in the air its going to hit someone!

    First night of playing last night, started campaign played a bit of multiplayer and did a few special ops with the housemate.

    The one main gripe I have with it is the way the online game looks, the lobby and menus, game summary screens etc they look old and dated and not nearly as polished and clear as those of MW2. was very disappointed with the whole look and feel, it seems unfinished and lazily designed.

    The maps are very small (from the ones I have played), having played MW" for so long and going through all the gun I got used to sniping alot but there simply doesnt seem to be the room to get a good scope in. I don't want camping spots just more open spaces so that you when you scope youre not staring face to face with a wall.

    campaign was mint though, graphics look pretty slick and its all go from the start!

    There was a map called Dome in COD World at War, I think he's referring to that.

    Got slapped around the place on Dom last night in nearly every game :( having 2 team mates with a combined score of 500 after every game didnt help.

    Not nice.

    Played more MP last night have a good few hours clocked up now and I have to say the maps are just sh!te imo, they are even more frustrating than other modern warfare maps. Nowhere near as good as the blops maps. Other than that I like the game but the sh!t maps will stop me from playin it much.

    .... Shocking stuff. Never mention the terrible map design, have they ever heard of a little thing called flow of movement?

    What they actually did was create 15+ maps that have no focal or choke points to focus the matches meaning games devolve into "here is a choice of three routes, take one and hope not to get side swiped ....OH TOO LATE.... here are three routes : wash rinse repeat".

    I think you hit the nail on the head with whats wrong.
    Apart from the Paris and London Underground Maps the rest are no great shakes.

    There are no battle lines and thats why everyone runs around like Free For All despite the gametype.
    Team Work is almost non existent.
    Like you said half the maps with more choke points would make the gameplay a bit more diverse, especially on the objective games like Demolition.

    I liked the maps on MW2 far more.

    I was in a couple of games last night with a guy who was the biggest camper ever, he was lying prone pointing his gun at a door, must have a look at it in theatre later and see just how much camping he did, one match he went 1-11.

    Seems to be a bit harder to do well on your own (Win on your own basically) than blops was, maybe its just cause i've been sniping quite a bit tho or just some bad luck with really horrible teammates and being up against parties.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,267 ✭✭✭mcgovern


    Bad Points
    Menu system, lobby etc is crap
    "Player card" is crap. Probably some better version of this in Elite but since that never works, its also a point point.
    Quickscopers.
    Gun levelling system.
    The variety that they promised is almost non-existent. Do you want to pick this good perk, or one of the 4 other ones that serve no purpose?
    Spawn system is not great.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,932 ✭✭✭YouSavedMyLife


    Worst map in the game? The New York Stock Exchange map. My god if i fall down another ****ing hole in that map im gonna bate my wife


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 906 ✭✭✭Randall Floyd


    Very difficult to do well in this game playing solo, got destroyed many times in Domination last night.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 713 ✭✭✭Crackity Jones


    5hrs 51 mins to finish campaign playing at normal pace. Wasnt expecting it to be that short


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,055 ✭✭✭Cossax


    The amount of people who just lie prone somewhere or head-glitch with Assassin and a Type 95 is a joke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,210 ✭✭✭hightower1


    JESUS CHRIST ARGGHGH!! Sorry, but the effing shotguns in this are useless!!!!
    It doesnt help that I have fallen in love with the kal tec ksg, looks and sounds the bees knees all the way up until you shoot someone with it.... then they slap their neck to squish that irritating mosquito and molest me with x2 pistol rounds. This is the second highest damage shottie there is? I lost count the amount of times I came across campers with magnums this evening , walked litterly to right beside them and shot point plank in the head to only get a hit marker and they spin about and down me with a ****ing pistol.

    I came across another guy using an m4 with underslung shottie and even that was more powerful that the second most powerful dedicated shotgun in the game WTF?

    sledgehammer..... YOU CANNOT BALANCE MP WEAPONS TO SAVE YOUR LIVES.
    I must actually find that clip on theater mode and post it up as a small example of how **** this is. Im sticking with it to unlock the damage proficiency to try redeem it.

    mw2 and mw3 just take camping to a new level.

    2s and 3s of people in buildings with heartbeat sensors and the likes, camping is a huge huge factor in mw2 and 3.

    also there are some terrible maps in it, mw2s maps were class but there's more bad than good in mw3 it has to be said.

    dome is possibly the worst small map from any cod, just a shocking map.

    While I (mostly) disagree on the level of camping in MW2, it's outrageous in MW3 though how much of that is the maps/everyone still a noob, I don't know.

    Dome is an awful map OK, C Dom down that very dark bunker, the state of B Dom and the number of ways to attack A Dom is frightening - I can think of at least 4 routes to it and zero protection - hell you can be 'naded from the off, Summit style!

    Really pisssshed off at this game, if i paid 60e for it i would be highly insulted.
    Its like a cheap Korean PC free to play game, in so many ways.

    The game is so UGLY, even worse than BLOPS (even at 5760x1080).
    Here's the list of why the game is the worst COD game to date.

    1. Maps are awful (way too small and badly designed)
    2. Even on dedicated servers you cannot rank up.
    3. You spend half the time in lobby's.
    4. Game feels and looks worse than MW2.
    5. Mouse movement feels horrible, better off with a controller.
    6. Colors are drab and hard to make out enemy's.
    7. FOV is locked and looks horrible (with eyefinity the game is playable otherwise its sickening.
    8. Game is easily hacked since its P2P (rank hack, normal hacks all undetectable just like mw2)

    So many other small things annoy me about the game.
    We will see people getting bored fast especially on PC.

    TBH the only bad thing i have to say about this game (Xbox 360 wise) Is the spawns are abit crazy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,983 ✭✭✭✭tuxy


    Maybe it's because I went from battlefield 3 to this but it's shocking how ugly this game is. I don't remember black ops looking this bad but maybe it did.

    UGGG :(


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 963 ✭✭✭NinjaK


    yea I would say cod4 looks better, amazing considering how long cod4 has been out. I blame the theatre mode, they dropped the frame rate so they could record games, waste of time imo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17 agentcrow


    Well i gave up at rank 34 its not my cupa tea my nephew will get an early xmas prezzie


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 249 ✭✭tonsiltickler


    I've played a ridiculous amount of cod4(22 days) and mw2(21 days). Both games are far better. Mw2 is just crazy; to this day it still amazes me whats possible in terms of crazy kills. You have a pretty good chance of winning with any gun.

    Getting rid of stopping power was the worst thing they've ever done. It makes assasin/ghost way too powerful. If you ran cold blooded in mw2 you were at a large disadvantage w/o stopping power. Couple that with the crazy amount of uavs and broken spawn system and you have a broken game.

    Proficiencies are annoying imo; I just want to pick up a gun and get my kill on, not wait until i earn kick etc..This game is playing like a treyarch game and its not fun.

    Proficiencies do **** all


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,322 ✭✭✭spider_pig


    waste of €104 rageing i pre ordered the elite to find out the game is **** guess im stuck with it too much to lose selling it after buying elite.

    Playing against Irish people is cracking me up, biggest campers ever! I actually hate the sight of the Irish flag now! :D Also why does every body have Irish wrote somewhere in their gamertag?

    Anyway, this game is shocking. So last night i thought i'd try out the riot shield because i thought it was one melee hit kill because i seen that in a video somewhere! Anyway its not but then i seen a proficiency for Melee so i thought maybe that gets you the one melee kill im after but again no! Which makes the riot shield useless again!

    Also i played about 5 games with it and got about 3 messages calling me a pussy, even tho i was going about 10 - 5 every game with just the riot shield and the XM25 rocket launcher thing, which takes about 3 direct hits to kill one person might i add, this game is brutal!

    Irish campers are getting my goat now. So many lads prone in doorways or corners. So many noobtubes as well. I'm getting great use out of Blast Shield, but the sheer volume of them coming at you are bound to kill.

    @craze7: I get that it's a grenade launcher, but would you like to be dying every time a grenade was popped off out of it? Explosive damage reduction is across the board, or else I'd have about nine million grenade kills.
