Call of Duty v9 - Still not as shit as BF3! - Games

pretty sure mw3 is a steamworks game

Runs like one fine ass motherfucker. My only complaint is a bit of lag. Other then that, everything is perfect.

I think I'm gonna go out and buy MW3 on Friday, got nothing else I wanted to spend my money on so I don't mind paying for it retail. However not for $110 from eb or game, shame there is no jb hifi in my area I got MW2 for $70 on release day.

Just order MW3 from [url=http://www.dungeoncrawl.com.au/]Dungeon Crawl[/url]. It's a store on Elizabeth Street in Melbourne but they do online purchases.

Got it Sunday, waiting until 9 or 10 AM EST for it to be unlocked on Steam. Too bad I'll be in classes at that time. :c

[QUOTE=Grim Joker;33179735]You're trolling because you're leaving negative comments about Call of Duty for absolutely no reason other than [b]to get a rise out of people.[/b] [/QUOTE] This is not why I post on facepunch. I only attempt to get a rise out of people on 4chan.

Getting it today, does anyone know how things are in regards to server ping? Like in Modern Warfare 2 there was those silly 4 green bars to tell you your connection, does this actually give you a ping?

It's still the bars I think.

How similar is it to MW2? Is it like MW to MW2 or MW2 to Black Ops?

MW2 to Black Ops, I played it with my best bro today on xbawx.

Also how reliable are they? Have you ordered anything online from them before? They are a lot cheaper than gamelane or ozgameshop.

[QUOTE=seano12;33179711]So many people on the internet don't even know what trolling is. I was just stating that Elite website is fucked and no one is complaining, yet battlelog has one little glitch and everyone goes apeshit.[/QUOTE]Battlelog was required for BF3, if it fucks up you can't play MP, Elite is just a special benefits membership(Much like Playstation+) that isn't required. You're also bitching about a game in the games thread, stop comparing it to other games, if you're going to bitch and moan just leave the thread.

Has anyone used intkeys? I want to believe that I can pick up Modern Warfare 3 for 35 bucks.

So how is it? [editline]8th November 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Chunky kong;33180300]Has anyone used intkeys? I want to believe that I can pick up Modern Warfare 3 for 35 bucks.[/QUOTE] It's a russian version, but I believe they have a language changer.

[QUOTE=Pat.Lithium;33180218]Also how reliable are they? Have you ordered anything online from them before?

Guys, when i unpaused preloading this morning (it was at ~80%), decrypting started...what the fudge?

What's the player cap?

Reviews are in 9.3 from Gametrailers, 9.0 from IGN. Pretty fair reviews. Awaiting inevitable Battlefield fanboy-fueled conspiracy theories.

[QUOTE=Raidyr;33180469]Reviews are in 9.3 from Gametrailers, 9.0 from IGN. Pretty fair reviews.

I guess they're not completely hopeless after all. [editline]8th November 2011[/editline] Only if you count the other scores, the final score should be 8.7, not 9. Which is actually lower than BF3's.

[QUOTE=Raidyr;33180509][/QUOTE] Except that's a fact, not a fanboy-fueled anything.

I don't really think that's them unfairly skewing it or anything, I think they genuinely think it deserves a 9 or something, just on paper it seems like an 8.7. OR MAYBE IT'S A CONSPIRACY.......................

They both got 9's. Maybe they don't average out the categories evenly. Deal with it.

[QUOTE=Raidyr;33180529]They both got 9's. Maybe they don't average out the categories evenly. Deal with it.[/QUOTE] I know, I'm just saying that BF3 ended up with a higher rating on IGN. Which is kinda surprising.

[QUOTE=simkas;33180536]I know, I'm just saying that BF3 ended up with a higher rating on IGN. Which is kinda surprising.[/QUOTE] They both got 9/10. Why is it surprising?

[QUOTE=Raidyr;33180547]They both got 9/10. Why is it surprising?[/QUOTE] Because IGN usually always gives Call of Duty far higher ratings than any other FPS.

[QUOTE=simkas;33180553]Because IGN usually always gives Call of Duty far higher ratings than any other FPS.[/QUOTE] No they don't, they gave Bad Company 2 an 8.9. Crysis got a 9. Even mediocre games like Homefront and Brink got 7's which is not really far less. [editline]8th November 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=pixskull;33180533]Gamespot gave it an 8.5[/QUOTE] I don't really understand that review. His only two complaints were the short campaign (dock a point for that) and then a complaint about the multiplayer being too similar to previous entries in the series. That said it's the only review below 9/10 I have seen so far so maybe it's just a one off.
