    Ive never understood the whole knife thing is overpowered situation people are having! If someone knifes you whether panic knifed or not they were close enough to get you. Yes commando in mw2 was retarded! A 2 hit knife just sounds retarded also. If i knife a person camping in a corner with his back turned i expect him to die if i knife him!
    What i think people are frustrated about is the inconsistencys of knifing, when you look at a kill cam your like "WTF hes was no where near me" or whatever. If they made it more consistant and with less lunge it would be better. Yes i understand a knife should not go through a hail of bullets but he must have been close right? And so you should have knifed maybe?
    Ive never learnt that whole panic knifing thing and i cant knife for **** so i really dont care if someone is that close to knife me and i die.

    Its annoying because im shooting at someone and they magically run through bullets and I die. I dont care about getting knifed in the back but if im honest that rarely happens. The only time i get knifed is I walk around a corner bump into an enemy and it's instant death for me. The knife is the one thing after lag that annoys me in cod

    Maybe, to solve it once and for all, you shouldn't be able to knife if you've taken any bullet damage?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,732 ✭✭✭Magill


    Or just make it so you have to switch to the knife, having a knife as a one hit kill is just... silly... old school melee attacks = best. Only reason to use melee over using your gun was to humilate someone !

    As things stand, Kill confirmed is effectively a broken game mode.

    It's a great game mode in theory, but way too many lobbies play out with people choosing their sniper class and using tags as bait for their XxQuikksCoPezzZZzxX.

    Annoying as f*ck.

    Only one way to fix this. Either ban snipers from KC or only get xp when you collect the tag yourself. If someone else collects your tag, it still goes towards the team effort of 65 tags. That sounds fair enough to me.

    Whats the story with people playing domination and not capping flags? They don't even get many kills in the game but for some reason they don't want to cap a flag incase they get killed. People like that are of no benefit to a team and should piss off and play tdm

    For the life of me I don't understand why 2 people on the one console aren't all put into lobbies with each other. It unbalances the game something terrible. In general both or at least one never really perform that well. At least if they were in lobbies with people in similar circumstances it would level the playing field.

    That's actually a really good idea.

    Can't believe they never thought of that..

    My 2cents megab1tch

    Maps far too small, I feel like every single area in every map has at least 4 entry points & by the time you have looked at each one you have gotten shot in the back. Cant go more than 5 seconds without confrontation after spawning on some game modes.

    Killstreaks in too much supply, I blame the support package. Prob have been killed more times by stealth bombers than I have actually been shot.

    Either IW has made a mistake or the shotguns of today wouldnt shoot through wet paper. I dont care were you hit a guy from less than 4 yards away it should put a man down.

    Other than that I still enjoy it and its playable

    Jesus Christ why is it every time we play domination on mission and start on the C spawn all these fkers cap C but then run straight for the A flag and cap that....The best way to control mission is to have both the C and B flags but no matter how many times these dopes get us spawn trapped at A they still run back and cap it again. Even if the other team are pushing us at C spawn and I spawn by A I never cap it because imo its the worst flag location of any of the maps.

    Sick of playing with brain dead people who still can't even figure out the best two flags to hold on each map. Playing objective modes unless you're in a party is unbearable.

    Turn on colour blind assist in the settings so you can see where the stealth bomber is coming from.

    Hate starting off on a on that map..its fecking hard to get b.

    I agree take b and c...c is a great spot to put a SAM too.B will be lost and retaken and i find miore often than not you'll win capping b+c

    Yeah B+C is the way to go because those two flags are the easiest to control and you also have the height advantage looking down on A. If you have a team mate looking incase they try to run under the pipe and flank then you're sorted because its next to impossible for them to get out of the trap.

    Im sick of ending up on the xmas noob team. Ballanced teams me bollix!

    Its a bad buzz alright do it is. I was on a team full of noobs yesterday playing dom and you know you're fcked when they run away from the A or C flags at the start and then realize their mistake and start running back.

    All of them got beat up pretty bad, one guy got 5 kills and 40 deaths but none of them quit so I admire them for that.

    Still trying to carry a team in MW3 isn't as easy as black ops.

    There's some invincible glitch at the moment, couple of us came across someone using it last night. I stuck him with semtex but he survived without blast shield/ballistic vest and then 3 or 4 of us were running around shooting him to no effect. Dunno whether it was map/killstreak specific or what but didn't see him use it after that map.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1 seanlynch123


    I don't know if it's just me or is the game extra laggy today. It's been quite annoying all Christmas it's like they didn't know there would be 25% + extra playing ,
    I'm getting really p***ed off with it only played twice over Christmas.:mad::mad:

    No joy!!!!

    Reckon it could be just a bad connection. Have come across it a fair bit, sometimes could unload a full mag into the back of some ones head only for them to turn around and kill me, look at their kill cam and I shoot him once he turns around with a load of misses from me and shoots me in the head. Think it has something to do with who ever the host is.If you're in a spainish lobby or something like it, back out, the connection on your end will prob be piss poor and you'll get slaughtered.

    6v6 TDM, all the opposition camped all game with assassin. UAV goes up, not one dot to be seen. They weren't in a party or anything..

    I dunno, he was doing some odd stuff before he became invincible and I doubt that many of us being unable to kill him was just lag. May have but I reckon it's unlikely.

    Have ya got theater mode turned on?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 155 ✭✭TheLynx


    I can confirm there is an invincibility glitch from viewing on youtube, where the user uses a remote turret to gain invincibility

    Can you put a link? can only find videos of the old glitch which was patched.

    I'll look into my theatre mode later an put up the vid

    Played this morning for a bit. Had a game of domination against a bunch of assasin pro users. IT was the most ridiculous game I've ever played. Everyone on their team went positive, but they didn't cap a single flag after the first cap. Most of my team left and it was just me and one other guy. Won 200-11. Joke!

    Dedicated servers; its nonsense that this game doesn't have them by now. Getting killed around corners is really irritating.


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


    I dont tend to see many assassin users at all tbh, any time I call in a uav or advanced one there's normally a good few dots on the map. one thing I notice a big lack of compared to MW2 is noobtubing, I genuinely couldnt tell you the last time I was killed by a tube, it happens so rarely I wouldnt even be annoyed about it. given that theres a pile of grenade launchers as secondarys you never see them being used. like the xm25 thing, dont think I've ever seen a killcam from it. the only things that annoy me on MW3 now are connection issues, akimbo fmg9s being overused and people not bothering to cap flags and get tags, but that happens on all the cod games.

    Being in the same lobby, I go 53-4 on a 4 bar. To 2 bar and 20-17 the next game. Host never left. IW games (MW2 onwards) hate me!

    Xmas noobs innit. Give it time, like BOPS, MW3 will be infested with them. I used to think what the complaints about Ghost were about by some here this time last year.

    On the grand scale, it varies lobby to lobby at present.
