It really does actually. They completely forgot about BlOps 1 and just made another MW3 game with a different name on it. In the first BlOps there was one assault rifle, AK-47, that I used that rivaled the fastest SM and Shottys and made me fall in love with it. Now there is nothing to stop the skorpion or any shotty and it's disgusting. MW forces you to use certain guns and BlOps didn't. They screwed up.

the lag comp is horrendous and it won't get better until late January if their history says anything. If you have cheap, crappy internet then by all means, buy this game and you will probably like it. The spawns are awful too. I play with friends and we find it impossible to use strategy and hold down 1 side of the map in HC TDM because whenever one of us dies, it spawns us on the other side of the map every single time, usually right in front of the enemy for easy spawn kills.

I find most of the guns when leveled up are decent..

But as said, it is all about not having a good connection to do great.. And the spawn locations are crap, especially in the smaller maps..

I still haven't played in a lobby with a bad player. Where are all the split screeners?

I'm going to get this soon, just so I can put on ghost and camp your ass.

Another thing I do not like. You join a game where the team you join are idiots and getting spawn camped. You don't spawn. But you cantleave wthout getting the loss. Not sure if you get the loss after getting kicked because I have not found a good way to sort stats.

If I don't spawn, I should be able to back out. There is no way in hell I am joining a game when the best player is 4kill and 15 deaths and all I see are scorestreaks reigning down.

And I agree with the above, where are the noobs?

In these COD games, you have to give up caring about stats like that. Wins/Losses was the only thing I really cared about, but back in Black Ops, I just gave up after awhile.

Join a game where you spawn on a horrible ****ing team? Back out.
Bad lag? Back out.
Bullshit campers? Back out.
Etc. Etc. Etc.


I just don't give a shit about my stats anymore. Nobody else does either the way most play the game. Especially objective game types.

Some players will only play in a party if the host and everybody else in the party has a KD below 1 and a super low score per minute. That is the only way they can get into games with bad players.

Other people are just simply killing themselves over and over so they can get into lobbies with bad players. LMAO

WTF would you want to do that? Kill yourself to get into bad lobbies to boost you K/D ratio only to kill yourself more so that you can get into the bad lobbies?

Some of them probably don't give a shit about their stats and just want to get into fun lobbies.

Others are probably guys who make money off of youtube videos, they kill themselves so they can get good gameplays to post on their channel.

That shit works?

I have 3 friends that suck. Like .4 to .8 and one just broke 1.0. Hmm. That would suc though if I. Get bumped in with the 2.0 crowd, will have to open up more 1080p streams.

I think if one of the bad players is the host of the party it works. I play with guys with 1 to 1.3 KD's all the time but I'm normally the host of the party.

Ohh. And the messages I get frm stealing care packages with the pda. It is joyous.

I don't do it to good players though, just ones that annoy me.

The back hat is great. You can hack through the walls of you have engineer.

I got it.

After kids are in bed, I'll be ready to treat the online world like Matt Cassel's vagina.

yes, black hat + engineer is probably the best thing about this game.

I dont care what they say.. FMJ increase normal damage besides going through walls.. I am over 3/1 using that thing on a smg..

And what is with teammates chasing a guy that is chasing an enemy behind you, but you dont know he is there. and they dont shoot them until they kill you.. boggles my mind

I wish there were a perfect blend of BF3 and BO.

BO is too run around and shoot for me. I love BF3 but I know a lot of people think it's too slow; I can understand that.

I'm very reluctant to get this; I didn't much care for BO; and got MW3 as an xmas present last year that I just recently opened, and FFS is sucked so bad. I'm not a MP slayer, but also not a complete putz either.....but holy shit, you'd think I was playing with one hand.

Terrible.

don't. BO2 is pretty terrible. The lag is just horrendous and it has the worst spawns in the history of shooters.

I'm not buying this game, seem's like the hype died down and everyone realized how trash it is after a week or so of it being out. I was playing Black Ops 1 just the other day and I'm content with that, even though it's like 2-3 years old, I don't need to dish out 65 bucks to a company that just wants to scam me.

Don't worry about it. I had like a .84 KDR on my call of duty game. By the time I got good, it was too late to really significantly improve it.

I think it has the potential to become the Madden of FPS.
...from the sounds of it, at least

that's the thing that's frustrating to me; I don't give a poop about my k/d etc, but holy shit.....it was REALLY bad in MW. THere are games in BF where I'm better than others, but after about 3 hours on MW3, I don't think I ever had more than 8 kills. It was almost comical.

I must be reeruned. LMAO

I sold it first week I got it. I like IW more than Treyarch, though, so I couldn't overlook its flaws.

given the history of this series, the game will probably be better in february. I would hold off if you are on the fence.

Looking for a couple more guys for zombies tonight.

360.

Let me know.

What time?

You might want to repost that at gayplanet.com. I'm sure that will be a 1000 reply thread in no time. "Xbox + Zombies" just screams gay.

Some time this evening.

The queers are probably still better COD players than shotgunning PS3 n00bs.

Yeah, ****ing sick of shitty connections. I'm constantly at 1 bar.

Is there a list of CPers that play this on 360 and CPers that play it on PS3? I have it on both (brother has the PS3 version and I have the 360 version). If you want a shitty-average player on your team I'd love to join in sometime. I don't play a ton.

There's both lists in the MW3 thread. I made the thread so you can just search my history for it. I'm too lazy to. Lol

Maybe it is just me, but I think this year's call of duty sucks

The lag is still really bad at times

I don't know if it's me, or my connection, but I have a helluva time playing two back-to-back games.

After the first game I'll lose connection to the host, or some other BS excuse.

Pretty aggravating.

It's not just you. I'm not going to play it again until they put out a few patches. I remember the first Black Ops being horrible the first month as well, it got better, so will Blops2.

I just got a PS3 on Friday, and I purchased this which came in as well. I haven't even gotten around to playing it yet because I've been busy with other things and when I do have time to play I've been playing Madden and NBA 2k13, but it sounds like I should wait a little bit for the online?

once enough people quit, the game's problems should sort themselves out. So I wouldn't expect it to get better until February at the earliest. That's how Activision handles their games, just wait until people quit and the lag problems will sort itself out.

I probably only have bad connections like 1 out of 8 games. And when it's bad, it's awful. I'm typically at 4 bar, every now and then 3. I'm on 360 too.

My connection was terrible last night. I tried about 8-10 different games and lobbies and they all sucked. The past two weeks were fine but last night sucked. Didn't end up playing.

Yeah, I had a night like that a couple nights ago. Just awful connection and host migration over and over. That's definitely the rarity though. I don't seem to have continual lag issues at all like some folks do.

I don't typically have all too many problems anymore. I still have a few more clips than normal, but nothing terrible.

once I choked my net speed down I don't have as many problems. I cannot and will not run at full speed though. People say your download and upload doesn't matter that much but after many many hours of my own testing, this is what works for me. I actually choke it from 30 down to 1.5 and 4 up to .5 and amazingly I get much more consistency with that. Don't ask why, I wouldn't know it was just something I've been dealing with.

Slums is the worst map ever made. I liked the maps in Black ops more, too much second floor camping imo, but I still enjoy playing it.

I don't mind slums, but I hate turbine.

This.

Turbine is ****ing terrible.

Turbine is awesome. My favorite map out of all the COD's.

BURN!

Jealousy.

Slums is awesome. Great map. Turbine and Yemen blow sweaty cocks. Nothing great about either of them.

I actually like all the maps except the one with the courtyard and the shotgun camping room.. That map sucks..

Maybe that's why Plow likes it so much.

Express is the best map if you ask me

I'm handies, your bj's.

Yeah, turbine is another one, who in their right mind would ever design that fuking thing, it takes about 5 minutes to find anyone from the opposing team and when you do they are all jammed in the same building. That or there is a guy camping behind the rocks.

Hijacked one of the better maps imo. Closest thing to nuketown.

hijacked is teh worst. It literally has 5 spawn locations on the entire map. ROFL

FAL OSW is my fave gun by far. Put FMJ on that bitch and go to town.

Like Mr. Plow on a dick.

I hate you.

Patch notes from the recent PS3 patch....

http://community.callofduty.com/message/413598388

Glad they are trying to improve spawn. But where is lag comp improvement.

so, serious questino here (not trying to stir up shit).

why doe these types of games (and possibly others for all I Know) seem to have SO many patches/upgrades so quickly after they have come out?

It almost seems like the game is a Beta that they sell etc.

That's games in general now IMO. Companies want to make money as soon as they can and even if the product isn't finished, they know people will buy it. It's not just FPS, look at Starcraft or Diablo 3. Starcraft is still waiting on features that were promised a long time ago even though it was released two years ago, and Diablo 3 at release was missing a lot, and still is actually.

has this applied to the xbox yet? It seems as if my SMG's got nerfed a bit.

Bring back Nuketown 24/7.

Bait and Switch.

Still can't find any good 360 players to coop on zombies.

Dicks.

Maybe it's you? :D

Nuke town is a shit map for quickscopers and boosters.. Children are the only people to like that map..

Yeah, more recoil.. Sucks a little as I am only half way through on gold guns..

trade this game in for far cry 3, now.

Pssssssh. NO!

All I'm saying is there's only one common theme between all the games...

You're right --- shitty team mates.

lol

HC FFA = GONE

that's my main game mode. **** this, trading it in for Farcry 3 today

Far Cry 3 is GOTY so far, get that or Hitman.

I have (in not particular order) on my radar, Hitman, NBA 2k13.

I was going to get BO2, but yeah....only about 3 out of 10 people I talk to tell me iit's worth getting.
