I don't get why they're trying so hard to pull complex plots out of their asses. I thought CoD and BF were games about shooting things dead, not following complex storylines.
Also they obviously suck at story writing so they just should stop now or make a different franchise that IS actually story driven;

I'M NEVER CLOSING THAT NOTICE. YOU ALL HEAR ME?
NEVER.
EVER.
So now, the nuke is available to anyone (you don't have to sacrifice a killstreak slot for it), fucks up all the opposite team without killing it allowing more easy frags, and taking away all their perks and advantages ?
Sounds actually more annoying than MW2.
Plus, if you need to give up on the main objectives to do it, it's just pointless. I don't get why IW forces that shit down the game's throat while they could just make a new gameplay mode where you actually need 25 kills in a row to launch a nuke and win the map, without having the killstreak in all gamemodes.

I hope so anyway. Im sure it could be edited so it only appears in Kill-heavy games (TDM and such)

From the looks of it, it does kill the enemy team (fucks them up). And then just EMPs them a bit when they respawn, which is hardly a problem. At least they made it 25 kills from weapons only, otherwise it would be far, far too easy to obtain. Still a pretty pointless thing to stick in, people would still boost for it just to say they got one I expect. Even if there is no record.
Watching the Seananners stream, this game looks ALOT more like COD4 than MW2 or Blops.
Anyone else getting this impression?
All right I'm just gonna say something about MW3, I did not actually buy it, but I've been able to play a bit with a friend. The thing that dissapoints me the most about it is that with most CoD games, even if it was the same exact gameplay repackaged there was at least mostly new models or a new engine or upgraded graphics or something. This game is jam packed with reused models, reused UI, and I believe even reused voice lines. Not to mention its graphically the same as MW2, its not even an upgrade. And gameplay wise, this game is more frustrating IMO than any previous CoD game.
TL;DR, I wish they would put some effort into at least trying to make the CoD games look new.

You need 25 kills from weapons only. That shit is hard as balls, in MW2 you needed basically only 7 kills to get a nuke and end the game. And besides, it's little more than an upgraded EMP, people will probably do it for bragging rights on youtube rather than as a tactical advantage.
I think that giving a player who got 25 kills in a row without dying a little treat is much better than giving a player who got 7 kills without dying a match-winning weapon.
Holy shit the spas 12 is really underpowered

the whole point is you have to get 25 weapon kills in a row which is much harder than using your killstreaks. In MW2 you could get it with a C130 easily so it broke the game. In this you have to actually use your gun, takes a lot longer.

Yeah I am, the lack of lean is all that seems to be missing
Wait they kept the nuke in this MW?? I'm kind of happy then. I always aimed for going for nukes without using killstreaks just my guns and those were my funnest moments in MW2. It's not all that hard if you are very cautious rolling with suppressed weapons.

And it gives the team 25 kills worth of point, then the entire opposite team's worth of points, which has no point. Even if it's hard to get it doesn't have to be something that gives you so much points at once.
If they really want to give players a big challenge how about removing the nuke and keeping the titles ?
[QUOTE=Shiftyze;33183699]Wait they kept the nuke in this MW??[/QUOTE]
Think of it as a very nerfed version of the nuke from MW2.

Oh boo fucking hoo, an osprey gunner could probably land you far more kills than that, and I don't really see you complaining.
[QUOTE=Glorbo;33183712]Think of it as a very nerfed version of the nuke from MW2.[/QUOTE]Just watched a video on it. As much as I hate the game.. I really like the way they made it. Doesn't end the game and takes only kills from the gun to achieve.
[QUOTE=Canuhearmenow;33183179]So let me try to get the plot worked out since it kinda doesn't make sense on my end, [sp]the Russians get kicked out of Manhattan, call for peace, but then commit horrific chemical attacks to invade Europe and then ask for peace once it falls apart? That's kind of... Odd. Or is the coordinated Russian invasion because lol Makarov.[/sp][/QUOTE]
No, the story doesn't make any sense at all. Especially since everyone seems to just forget about the [sp]chemical weapons attacks[/sp] about an hour after they happen.
Question, I know it has both matchmaking and dedicated servers but how do I access the dedicated server games?
Aren't the dedicated servers only for unranked matches? Seems silly.
GIGN hands down best spawn theme

It's very silly, atleast they can choose for you to have all items unlocked.
I have bought both BF3 and MW3, and started playing them with no preference in mind, but i'd really like some hardcore CoD players to explain this:
- It took me 5 minutes to get in the first match. Battlelog may be derp but this is even worse
- WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THIS BLUR (Highest settings, 4x AA, 1920x1080)

And finally, how can this even happen when you have 4x AA on?? (Look at the barbed wire on the fence)

Well that's bloody lovely, CoD4 crashes when i try to launch multiplayer.
[b]How to turn off the shitty blur in MW3[/b]
Go to the 'players2' folder and open up config.cfg in notepad. Find the line "image_quality" and set it from 1 to 4 or 5. Blur gone! As a side effect you may now notice how shitty the textures for everything are without all that blur in the way.

Wow, I knew it would look bad but not [B]that[/B] bad.
It looks like they took a picture of some garbage and put it flat out as texture.
The blurryness actually looks like resolution upscaling to me
Just check how the guns look like without AA, good god those pixels

They're worse than MW2, I don't think that's supposed to be happening

Oh Facepunch. Call of Duty is the game you love to hate.
