I cant wait for COD to die horribly, only to be revived by someone willing to bring it back to where it was at MW1 and before.
I feel sorry for those with Xbox Live.
Activision, I laugh in your face for this foolhardy endeavour!
Also, hopefully after CoD kicks the milk bucket, Activision will fail to find a new cow to wire up to the extractors.
It's just what Bungie have been doing with Halo for the past 3 years, except they don't have the cheek to charge for it.

Strawberry jelly appears on my screen when I get shot. WHO KNEW HYPER-REALISTIC COMBAT-SIMULATION COULD BE SO TASTEY?!

OH THEY JUST MADE A DOUBLE RAINBOW JOKE FUCK OFF YOU'RE NOT FUNNY.[/QUOTE]
I didn't even get that far in the video so I checked back to see what you were talking about. No words describe the state of this trailer.
[QUOTE=yawmwen;30151518]i sorta wish they would just do a monthly subscription
it would actually probably be better than buying an expansion pack for 60 bucks every year. if they continue to add a lot of content for the game then i would rather do it this way[/QUOTE]

Damn it's about time, fucking genius Activision.

This just sums this whole ordeal up
And I thought the £12 map packs were bad... lol
Well, there goes any chance at all that I'm preordering now, let alone buying until they convince me otherwise
[QUOTE=lulzbocksV2;30149892]Why does every article I see about MW3 say this?
I mean, literally every single one has these exact words.[/QUOTE]
I think its the marketing bullshit activison are throwing around, I have seen the phrase even in articles that just mention MW3 slightly.
As for CoD Elite, this sort of thing is going to ruin gaming if it catches on, and it will catch on because people will buy it so other developers will think its good.
This video is private.
What
Every time I see "Hyper realistic" I expect "And then a skeleton popped out!" to follow

This. I really do hope Call of Duty dies soon so we could move on. This is kind of killing Gaming in General i fear.
because this is totally news.... who here really plays cod.. come on.

What happened to this? :sigh:
Why did activision shit up this once great franchise? I haven't bought and activision game since the last good Tony Hawk.
damnit all the videos are taken down

What about that thing Bungie did for Halo?

This is the first time you've had to pay for it.
I'm now imaging a team of monkeys with Activision shaped control chips on their head sifting on youtube, ready to take down any COD-PAY2WIN related video the millisecond it is uploaded.
Fuck imagining, it's actually happening right now.
[QUOTE=Kopimi;30151222]HL2: EP2 had improved graphics, a different setting and art style, and most importantly A STORY.
Modern Warfare 3 is just another desert combat game.
I wish the US could move their way out of the Middle East and go invade an alternate dimension, maybe then the popular games will become somewhat interesting.[/QUOTE]
Sorry for the late reply, but we haven't seen any deserts or middle eastern areas in any of the trailers and other media we've seen so far, nor have I seen any of the settings in the trailers before.
In fact, here's a leaked list of mission locations:
[sp]
Dharmasala, India
New York, New York
A plane transporting the president of Russia
A town in Sierra Leone
London, England
Mogadishu, Somalia
Hamburg, Germany
Paris, France
Prague, Czech Republic
A castle in the Czech mountains
Berlin, Germany
The Kremlin in Moscow, Russia
Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Washington. D.C.[/sp]
we haven't had a CoD take place in ANY of these modern locations, besides the one [sp]taking place in a plane.[/sp]
Sure it's going to look similar to MW2, it's a sequel.
Most sequels look very similar to their previous title. (Look at portal 1 to portal 2 for instance.)
And shut the fuck up about the story.
We get it, CoD has kind of far fetched storylines, that's not the same as having no story at all. (CS:S has no story)
I don't know what pisses me off more, how far people go for money or the kids that will think this will actually make them part of a professional elite group of trained soldiers. Not even funny anymore.
It would be cooler if it was free.
[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;30150056]Call of Duty [i]might[/i] begin to die because of this.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I can only hope that it does.
DICE will make fun of this.

Okay that trailer had lots of random shit and even a double rainbow joke. I bet all 12 year olds want it now
The dynasty warriors series has had 11 games and it still is awesome.
[QUOTE=Eonart;30156486]What does Kotick do with his money?[/QUOTE]
He uses his Staff of Zion to transform it into "Jew Gold", as the layman term goes, which he then hangs in little bags around his neck. The remaining pieces he sews into his clothing to create a kind of armor that will protect him from the weapons of his enemies.
Occasionally, he will feed the beast of marketing and production known as Eric Hirschberg pieces of this gold so as to keep up its strength. By doing this, he ensures that plenty of trailers are produced to entice gullible victims into the "Activision Cavern"- where he enslaves their minds with map and DLC packs, and promises of new games for the CoD series. He then feeds off of them for as much money as he can like some kind of bipedal spider or leech.
Legend tells that Valve followed in Kotick's steps not long after this with their own Team Fortress 2, replacing the Activision model featuring map packs with... with... HATS...
