    Elite is mank to use. Really is bloated with useless pictures instead of stats.

    Too many pictures means it takes forever to load, when it's not offline.

    Doesn't have your accolades, assists or allow you to compare to friends, recent players of clanmates. Never mind what type of accolades or awards you've accrued.

    Stats aside from k/d, accuracy etc. from games such as Caps and Defends aren't accurately recorded properly. So as well as making a horrendously slow method to review your record online, it's blatantly wrong.

    Even simple things like the ratio of support:assault:specialist point streaks used isn't there.

    It's so far behind what other games have for online stat tracking and recording it's laughable.

    Killzone and Resistance both have better stat tracking/clan support and its all free. Can't believe people bought Elite

    Snipers on kill confirmed. C*nts of the highest order.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,844 ✭✭✭NufcNavan


    While I agree to a large extent with the last sentence, I've not had much problems winning 6v6 games playing with randoms and running support streaks - UAV, CUAV, Recon Drone, Advanced UAV and EMP. Ground War on the other hand.....
    Fair enough. To be fair Ive been winning a bit more solo but you can get some rotten luck with the utter sh*t teams that you can be put with.

    Ya they are a pain in the preverbial. In fact people who don't claim their kill tags drives me complete off the edge :(

    Really? I see it as more points for me.

    Defeats the purpose of kill confirmed if you ask me. You should only get points for collected tags or if your tag gets picked up, not for the kill itself.

    Getting sick of going after a tag and being sniped, then watching the killcam where a sniper was scoped on the tag from the other side of the map.

    what they should have done in kill confirmed is.......

    for you to collect points/build killstreaks or for it to have any bearing on your so fcuking important k/d......you have to collect the tags yourself.

    Any video I have seen of it (which isn't alot tbf), is commentators picking people a mile off from the action so they can build their own killstreaks. They go 30/2 in the game while their teammates get shate on trying to grab the tags.

    I mean seriously like? How long are IW making these games now and they still don't have the cop on to see these simple flaws.

    I think it's quality but could be better.

    Should basically not count as a kill unless the dogtag is collected

    that's what I was saying. If you kill someone you have to collect it yourself in order for it to count as a kill/towards a killstreak.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    I wish they'd change that too, right now people just go for kills and arent really bothered about getting the tags, it'd make it more tactical if you actually had to get the tags for them to count, now all they count towards is the score for the match , and COD players in general care more about their own kd than the outcome of the match itself.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 35,946 Mod ✭✭✭✭dr.bollocko


    If I am looking at a tag, or two or three, from a busy part of the map or a place vulnerable to snipers, I pop some smoke and go and get those bastard tags.

    You playing Mercenary yeah? Dom in Ground War aside, I honestly don't bother with other gametypes unless in a party. Playing solo in this game is far harder with all the **** ups that come with COD and IW themselves in this game. I'd have been confident of going into SnD, Sabo, HQ or even Demo and doing the business, might not have got the win necessarily but more often than not I would have. But the stress is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo not worth it in this game. You should join us for a few games sometime again. We (I) usually run in small parties, full parties are a bit boring IMHO, 6 or 9 man. Less running around like a headless chicken searching for kills thus dying stupidly and obviously more points for us.

    Playing Domination on Hardhat last night. Entire enemy team running around with akimbo FMG's, pleasant experience so it was >_<


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,255 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    My lag has gone through the roof in the last two days, it's pretty much unplayable. Im shooting 2 burts of a Type95 directly into someones gut, only to find on Kill Cam that the guy had moved to my left and killed me. On kill cam, I'm shooting bursts into a wall like a twit.

    In fact, once I started checking kill cams in any close quarters encounter, I'm shooting at air most of the time when it clearly shows I'm hitting in game.

    My gf summed it up best when I showed her the problem. "Why are you playing it?"

    The killcams are a joke in this game. To me I'm around the corner...to them I'm just standing there like a tool.

    To be honest I'v given up on this game but I enjoy the craic with the lads online so when I play I'm not expecting much but a few laughs. And thankfully lag cant effect them. (waiting for a perrin joke)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,028 ✭✭✭✭everlast75


    I agree Pete.... craic or its not worth it.

    The lag is incredible. I see from my screen four or five hit markers, I die, then I see his killcam and he gets hit once!?

    Also, there is one thing I want to try out in a private lobby... I want to throw a flash bang and see how long the other person is stunned. I am blinded when I get hit for a good 4-5 seconds, yet when I throw one at someone else, who doesn't have that pro perk, they seem stunned for half that!?

    That's one of the primary reasons why I have stopped playing the damn game. Bunch of no-skilled idiots running around just shooting at will, looking in the general direction of where an enemy is, gets a few kills. ****ing stupid.

    Dunno why they got rid of using score per minute for the leaderboards. Made so much more sense and you could suss out the campers :p :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 866 ✭✭✭Palytoxin


    Don't think I'll even bother buying MW3, had black ops and the lag was absolutely ridiculous (I'd be literally pumping bullets into a lad on my screen then he would just turn to face me and then shoot me- then on the killcam it looked like I had shot a whole mag into a tree beside him:confused:), half the time it wouldn't even put me into a game, the only way was go through about 100 names to try and join a session in progress, and if I did manage to join a game, my team was usually down by about 4-5000, so they won't be getting 50+ yoyos off me for it! :eek:

    This, times a billion! They added nothing to the scoreboard. How can you not add one thing to it?!

    If only Black Ops and MW3 would sort out their differences and just have a baby already... :o

    I'm really losing heart with the online part of this. Love the SP and Spec Ops. I'm finding it difficult. I round a corner, aim down the sights at a guy and I'm blown away. It's infuriating, I have the drop but they hit me. I run support most of the time as I've no incentive to go for assault. I don't know if it's my net, I don't get lag or anything, but it's weak at times I guess.

    I like playing with Boardsies mainly as it's good fun and they're very good but compared to MW2 and Black Ops, I'm getting nowhere. I went back and played MW2 a few days ago and I was destroying everyone. Beneath the danger close, commando, OMA, it is a good shooter.

    My copy of MW2 clapped out two days - to be fair myself and the brother have probably loaded it up thousands of times. So I'll probably pick it up over Christmas again.

    Will keep trying MW3 but not feeling very positive about it.
