[QUOTE=supertoaster;18131850]If you can get 25 kills in a row you're most likely playing against bad/new players, and the whole killstreak system is screwing over bad/new players. So their choices are either to die, or grenade spam and die 2 seconds later[/QUOTE] They also introduced deathstreaks in MW2, so I think it will rebalance the game for bad/new players pretty well.
Tactical nukes on hardcore will be so goddamn entertaining. [editline]01:04PM[/editline] Assuming they're real, of course.
[QUOTE=gufu;18124858]IF they fix P90, screw it, and use AK74SU.[/QUOTE] Unless they actually put the AK74SU in the assault rifle slot [i]where it belongs[/i].
what the hell is this shit
The nuke is real, when you use it, it basically kills everyone and instantly ends the game. A timer appears counting down 5 seconds, then the nuke comes and its game over. I'm not joking, it's really stupid in my opinion.
[QUOTE=Armotekma;18125096]is it me or does the siren sound like a sped up version of the siren from EP2?[/QUOTE] The slowed down version is so much better.
I hope if you have this killstreak equip you can't use other ones.

Talk about overkill... @_@
[QUOTE=markfu;18133233]But if a team sucked so much to get dominated by one player they probably would want the game to end as fast as possible.[/QUOTE] Exactly, that's why there is no actual point to it, its basically just a way to showboat.
[QUOTE=gufu;18124669]Yes, but with 33 kills, will you be able to play as Robocop?[/QUOTE] Yes but by using a nuke, you end your kill streak at 25.
[QUOTE=Moltz;18133407]Yes but by using a nuke, you end your kill streak at 25.[/QUOTE] You don't have to use it. I hope
[QUOTE=G-foxisus;18133646]You don't have to use it. I hope[/QUOTE] If you chose it as one of your 3 kill streaks, then you probably were going to use it if you got the chance anyway?
[QUOTE=Cheesemonkey;18129946]This didn't cause me to cancel a preorder, it further enforced the idea that i'm not buying this game. The main protagonist is a total douchebag, they added weapons that no millitary in the would would ever use in their right mind, they added things that the community disliked, and then on top of it they added a weapon that is completely unrealistic in every sense of the word. Not just "hey i'm suspending my disbeleif" it's "this is so insane it does not fit" It went from a fairly reasonable action title to something completely over the top. That's why it's got people pissed.[/QUOTE] This + the douchebaggery on the PC multiplayer side of things. I personally don't mind all the new weapons and completely unrealistic/irrelevant material. I think the story will be full throttle the whole way through making it enjoyable. Only problem is that IW already confirmed a generally short story-line. So once I get through with the singleplayer, multiplayer will keep it alive. Except that the PC version of multiplayer comes with a pile of shit on top of it that I personally don't really want to touch it. I really want to enjoy this game, but the way IW is treating me as a customer is not convincing me to purchase this game over pretty much any game released within that two week time-frame (the next few weeks are going to be stocked full of new releases).

An unguided antitank weapon locking onto and shooting down an AC-130? What the fucking fucking fucking fucking fuck?
I've got plenty of 25 kill streaks but almost all of them were on 32 player hardcore free for all servers.

25 kill streaks are rare, so it's okay. I have only gotten a 19 kill streak in MW and a 31 in WaW. It's not like it's going to piss you off if it happens once in a decade. [editline]10:41PM[/editline] Week.
This news article made me think quite a bit. Here we are bitching at IW, calling ourselves 'loyal PC fans,' which is bullshit. We're not loyal. We're the reason they lose millions among millions of dollars. Instead of bitching about removal of dedicated server and mods, be glad that they're making a PC version at all. If you're butthurt about the dedicated server, don't buy it.
[QUOTE=Takkun10;18124774]agreed, how does a tactical nuke not kill you and your teammates? Does it just up your teams points or something? Like taking out the enemy reinforcements?[/QUOTE] It does kill you. It kills everybody. It automatically ends the game too.

Those who say they're loyal PC fans are still loyal PC fans when they're boycotting or protesting stupid moves like what IW's been doing to set PC gaming BACK a decade or more.
[QUOTE=Victis;18135778]You're forgetting that they made Price a bad guy, a terrorist and traitor.[/QUOTE] Wait what
[QUOTE=Victis;18135778]You're forgetting that they made Price a bad guy, a terrorist and traitor.[/QUOTE] wowo[B]WHAT[/B]!?

Don't try to make it their fault.

I mean look at the situation here, they're switching to Steam, that automatically drops piracy rate a few percent - yet still, they're going with a higher price AND a big finger to the multiplayer community. I won't even mention the lack of any preorder discount on steam, although I just did exactly that.

[QUOTE=j00g0t0wnd;18137343]We were the ones who fucked them over by mass-pirating CoD4.

The piracy as an excuse thing is BS and you know it.

Shitting on PC players is shitting on the fanbase that got the Call of Duty series through 4 games and far beyond.
[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;18139131]Pirates will always pirate, but CoD started out on the PC. Shitting on PC players is shitting on the fanbase that got the Call of Duty series through 4 games and far beyond.[/QUOTE] Yes, because all companies that started out on consoles never had any success, right?
[QUOTE=Armotekma;18125096]is it me or does the siren sound like a sped up version of the siren from EP2?[/QUOTE] Well EP2 is just using an existing siren but yeah it is sped up.
