The Official MW3 Thread

If you bought it at midnight launch and think it sucks, it's your own fault.

All of the games are the same but with little touch-ups, some hype, and new maps.

How is it my fault? Loved COD2,4,MW2. I thought this one would be good and it truly isn't.

For those asking, the maps are awful. Some on S&D are way too small. The rest of the maps are cluttered and look like ahit. Looks like create-a-map by fans. This whole token thing makes it way too easy for people to rank up and get the upper hand on newer players. It's hard to see sometimes. They took the worst part of Bad Company(red eye after being shot) and adding it to hardcore mode. The best part of this game is that you can hear players after you kill them.

It just doesn't feel like a modern warfare game. Doesn't feel like infinity ward. Feels like modern treyarch. Many of the hardcore MW guys I've played with for years hate this game. I can't really explain it but this falls really short of the past titles. Can't believe I regret trading in BF3 for this game. But I guess sledgehammer made the multiplayer so I guess not wards fault.

I will give them credit on this. Not one server issue yet.

BF3 got better with time. This game isn't.

Kill confirmed greatest game invention of all time IMO I love it.

Only reasoning I can think of is that it's not the same Infinity Ward that made the past titles. The two head guys and a large majority of the company left after they had a spat with Activision. Those head guys left and started up Respawn Entertainment with EA and are making a whole new franchise and a lot of IW castoffs left with them.

It's a different Infinity Ward from a few years ago. It's pretty much a whole new company that made MW3, two including Sledgehammer.

3 hours of multiplayer, heres my take:

Pros:
I do like the additional perks and point system
the maps flow well
servers are amazing
the theme of the maps are good
new type of streak rewards
no wallhackers or aimbots yet
well balanced weapon selection

Cons:
maps are small
maps are to mazey
the explanation of all streak rewards is very vague
the elite shit is another way to waste money
maps all feel the same (as MW2)
graphics havent improved that much

so far that is my take after 3 hours.

Was it worth it hanging out w/friends at the gamestop release party 3 hours before midnight? yes! just seeing the die hard nerds who chant " COD before hot chicks " was priceless.

I have been on the fence for this game and based on what I have read here and else where I'll have to rent before I buy.

The cons aren't that bad, hope I can get this by X-Mas

Maybe I'm a huge fanboy, but I'm digging it.

 

[Anytime23]

After playing some more, its grown on me a bit but not enough. Still prefer the older titles and the new BF3. For once in COD i actually prefer regular mode instead of hardcore. I also like that Kill Confirmed mode. Nice concept but kids play like homos.
