My friend burnt a copy & i played on his banned moded xbox......... spec ops is cool shit
it was really fun.....
who got it pre-ordered?
-
Yeah some people have got the game early already, kmart was accidentally selling them before release date.
I pre-ordered the hardened edition.
-
Best game of the series has been Modern Warfare 1, oh wait, it's really been the ONLY game in the series. Everything else has literally been the same game with new maps and some new weapons here and there (and a new storyline that hardly anybody really cares about).
-
It's incredible.

Lazy motherfuckers just getting your money for the same game. LMAO they straight up use the same building from Modern Warfare 1
-
^That's actually pretty hilarious. But who cares? It's a new game, new story & only $60. Unless you're a broke motherfucker it's a must have.
-
Hardly anybody plays this game for the storyline, it's all about multiplayer. They haven't updated their game engine since MW 1, and the only thing new about it are the maps and some weapons. Turns out not they're even recycling buildings? Straight laziness from the developers, and Activision knows people will just pay for the game, pay for ELITE, and pay for extra $$$ for old maps and 1 or 2 new ones lol. That's why half the people from Infinity Ward originally left during and after MW 2 was being developed, they wanted to update the game engine and come up with a new bad ass game. Activision said no cuz of course they rather just release the new game, keep cost low, and make a ton of money from people that are willing to pay for the same game. There are so many better games out there that have come out this year that are worth getting than MW3.

^ While i completely agree with you, what exactly are people expecting them to change? Consoles are so limited in what they can do nowadays compared to PC, Battlefield 3 is a great example of that, on PC it looks amazing, runs at 60 fps but there's noway they could even get it running close to that on consoles and that's why once again consoles get stuck with 30 fps and graphics which weren't really much of an upgrade atall from BF: Bad Company 2. Shit if you're on Xbox and you don't install that HD texture pack some of the graphics are awful, comparable to the PS2 days. COD's easily got the best gameplay of any shooter because of the fact that it manages to run at nearly 60 fps if that means the graphics won't be comparable to other top games that's fine to me cos gameplay's the only thing that's important

A lot can change. Uncharted 1 to Uncharted 3 showed vast improvements. Oblivion to Fallout 3 to Skyrim again is showing a ton of improvements. I would have loved to see what the creative minds of Infinity Ward could have done if they had more freedom during 2.

I just ordered a PS3 because I got tired of my supposed high-end PC breaking for literally the 5th time in 3 years. No the graphic card got smoked and I paid 60 bucks just to let some nerds check what's wrong cause the warranty has expired. I'm so beyond pissed that I'm done with high-end gaming PCs for a while. I ordered the PS3 really fast without thinking much cause I've been waiting for Skyrim since forever and I really NEED this game on release date.
So, my question now is, is MW3 the game to get when you don't want to buy dozens of FPS and just bought a PS3? Or are there better games? Like, for a high-end PC, Battlefield 3 is probably better than MW3. But for a PS3, I'd rather get MW3 I suppose..

Yeah, might as well get MW3. That's also going to be the one with the most players as well.

same game with new maps and some new weapons here and there
After buying it yesterday and playing it for a couple of online games, I came to this conclusion too. Still playable though.
-
That's the business. Everyone knows that. They had these graphics and technology ten years ago, but it's easier to just keep making slight improvements & keep selling the game.
Like NBA 2K. Every year the graphics got a little better. You mean to tell me in 2006 they couldn't put out this year's version? They just knew they could make hundreds of millions selling it year after year.
& sports game have been the exact same formula for over a decade yet nobody cares. War games are the same.

That's the problem, that it's business first, gamer 2nd. They're straight up laughing at gamers. FIFA and Pro Evolution soccer games have taken an interesting turn of events. A few years ago, PES was easily the better game. Due to competition, both game developers tried their hardest to improve upon their gameplay. PES turned to shit while FIFA recently released the best video game soccer. And it's nowhere close to being the same game as Fifa 11, and miles apart from Fifa 10.
-
The thing MW has over everything else has nothing to do with graphics and gameplay (which sounds silly, I know, but its true) - its true value is simple - numbers.
The sheer amount of people that buy these games and make the online gameplay so fucking busy and always buzzing is why people, including me, keep playing it.
I actually thought Battlefield 2 was massively superior to both MW2 and Black Ops, but its online section wasn't anywhere near as full and a lot of the games you played online were done in their huge maps (much bigger than CoD's) with half the players.
I'll be buying both Battlefield 3 AND MW3 when I get paid in a week or so. For these different reasons.
-
Battlefield III online is so awful. The maps are miles long & you got like twenty people running around hiding in corners. No killstreaks. No feeling of accomplishment.

All games are made to solely make money, COD breaks records every time it comes out, so why would they even risk trying to re-invent their engine when they've got one which already works perfectly. Comparing it to Pro Evo/ Fifa is great because it shows how quickly a game can fall because it try's to update its engine. They could improve the game loads on PS3 due to blu-ray but Xbox discs are so limited i doubt they'd be about to ship the game on multiple discs, it would cost more money plus everyone bitches about disc swapping.
Doubt anything major will happen to COD before next-gen consoles, it's more popular than ever, they lost the half of IW who are responsible for the game in the first place, if anything changes it'll probably be the setting they'll release the same game, just stick it in space or something retarded like that lol. They should just release it as a stand alone multiplayer game cos nobody truly cares about the single player all it does is eat up disc space

A lot of game developers would take insult to that line of all games are made to solely make money. Sure, they do it for a living but they consider it their own art. The fact that people left Infinity Ward shows you that. They could have continued making bank every two years and by not doing that much hard work really. But they see games as an art form, and they want to further push the game industry.
-
Looking back, "World at War" & "Black Ops" >>>>> "MW2" & "MW3". Maybe not graphically or through the campaign, but it's just better. I never once yelled, "THAT'S FUCKING BULLSHIT" in Treyarch's games. But I find myself doing it everytime I get shot in Infinity Ward's. Something about the connection. The screen shows I'm firing away, with the red dot on fuckers faces, yet nothing happens.
Call of Duty 4 was the best game ever.
-
^ With me its the exact opposite lol all the IW games seem to have better hit-detection where as Treyarch games always have that bullshit sponge

But at the end of the day it's a business, games cost alot of money to make and Devolpers can't release games without funding. The original two makers of COD were fired because they were demanding over $50 million dollars which they were owed from MW2 and the fact that they didn't want to make MW3 straight away, the other members of IW left in support, and now they're all suing each other so it's not like money isn't a factor

I'm killin it online........its got the mw2 feel
i straight went back to my old class ump45 silenced and thats the end of it.

^ Yep, just like playing MW2. Just learning the maps.
-
I'm liking this game! But I think the maps are holding this game back though, they're so full of clutter, sometimes cramped, and there's too many buildings. Could do with more variety instead of 10+ urban themed maps.
Spawns need to be fixed too, they've had an enemy spawn on our domination flag, our domination flag. Or where I kill someone and he spawns behind me, or I get killed and I spawn in their general line of sight again. bullsheeeit.
-
yeah it's the same shit, but still good fun.
Im smashing muthafuckas at the minute. I like the different strike packages, good addition to the game.

FULLY AGREE WITH YOU. THERE'S NOTHING THAT EVEN COMES CLOSE TO AN OPEN MAP (FOR EXAMPLE AFGAN). I hope some of these new downloadable maps fix this issue.
yeah it's the same shit, but still good fun.

KEVIN, I'M LIKE THE STRIKE PACKAGES AS WELL. It's awesome how for example when i'm playing domination. i'll get a point towards my care-package, just for capturing A or C. then the minute enemy uav or counter uav goes up....stringer that bad bitch and i got another point.
seems im getting the attack heli quite a bit
THE PAVLOW IS A FUCKIN BEAST....MIN 7 KILLS EACH TIME...BEAST!
-
Yeah, the maps are so small. It's nearly physically impossible to get a killstreak higher than nine unless you're camping your fucking ass off. Even if you're a silencer kind of guy with Assassin & blind as far as the map goes, you're going to run into somebody eventually & then you're out gunned with a silencer on.
Then before you know it, unless you're playing hardcore, you're running out of ammo after a four killstreak, need to find a new gun, hope it's silenced or else you're fucked.
It's annoying. It's why I stick to hardcore SnD.

hmm...very interesting points u brought up....i agree it's true although secondary scorpion silenced works well close-range...but i've started using the stinger to get points towards kills-streaks
im all about the silencer on with assassin pro and blind-eye pro
hardcore search was my shit in blackops...once i get more familiar with mw3...ill be on hardcore search again.
-
^Yeah, I gotta play Demolition until I have some cool strategies to use on SnD.

Yeah im more of a team player so i run around like a mad bastard capturing domination points, so it's cool you get rewarded for that.
I've been getting the attack heli as well then followed up with the strafe run. Straight murder.
25 streak kill is M.O.A.B. and the game doesn't end which is cool.
Some people have already racked up 4 days playing the game wtf

I'm not sure if this is a glitch or was intended but did you know if you kill an enemy you can hear their reaction/rage for like a second? loool
So what's everyone's stats and gun of preference so far?

fuck thats funny, makes me laugh everytime
Been using Type 45 as it's quiet acurate and also scarr
KDR is 1.70
Bout level 67 so far and used all my tokens on 2x XP
-
P90 w/Silencer + Rapid fire is cheese, especially with steady aim pro. thats my current smg loadout.
Scar is nice, ak47 was good too. But I think I like the ACR the most.
KD is at 2.40, and thanks for the xp cali, it helped level up quickly when I prestiged 8)
-
Just recently discovered the P90..damn that thing is beast with rapid fire/extended mags....
...what modes are you playin the most cause even without double xp your moving through pretty quickP90 w/Silencer + Rapid fire is cheese, especially with steady aim pro. thats my current smg loadout.

I find the AK to be complete ass.
-
I've not noticed this feature 'crybaby'. Is it something just in there or does it need to be unlocked? I suppose not a huge amount of people have headsets so you wouldn't hear it every kill.
-
P90 is the real deal. Love that gun!
I really like the kill confirmed gameplay, it's awesome. I agree on some points being named.... the maps are too small and it's almost impossible to get a killstreak higher than 8.

with the cod tokens i don't fuck with the double xp or weapon xp. Best thing is to go straight to unlock gear, there you can unlock any gun or perk straight from the off which you carry through every prestige.
i'd say the main weapons i use are.
Rifles
Silenced G36
Silenced ACR with Red Dot.
Type 95 Red Dot and Rapid Fire.
SMG
Silenced Ump
Silenced Mp7 <beast weapon
I usually go for the specialist strike package, have more fun using that. but if i do use assault package, its usually UAV- Chopper or Reaper - Pavelow
Perks are usually,
Sleight of hand, Quik draw and either steady aim or stalker. Or if in Snd Extreme Con, Assassin, Dead Silence.
i wont lie, ive been putting in some work on it. just hit the 4th prestige, K/D is around 2.79

yeah i cant decided wether its impressive or just sad the amount ive put in... I busted my ankle up at the start of november so was off work for three weeks, so all i did during the days was pretty much beast out on TDM against all the newbs. I did get my overal K/D up to the 2.87 mark but its dropped off in the last week or so, since ive been playing less and less TDM and more S&D...
Nah im on 360 dude. GT is EsX Oddisee if people want to get at me.

Pretty much just TDM.
I can't play domination or other objective modes due to the horrible spawns.
-
Why not Kill Confirmed? I think it's a lot doper then TDM.
-
i like playing kill confirmed but only when in a party of 3 or more... being a new game type you have too many newbs running around getting killed, ive literally seen them going 6 - 37.

I didn't bother with Black Ops 2. I'm still going strong on MW3. whoelse?
