underwhelming
So, they're going with a scenario that both Crysis2 and Homefront recently visited? Original!
There had better be a new engine associated with this game, And even that may not compel me to get it.
This franchise is getting stale as
its a sequel to how the last one ended so of course they are going to go with the us route
^That clears a few things up, but it still seems stale
The only reason to buy this series anymore is for MP, the SP is a goddamn joke.
Endlessly spawning enemies, an ADD approach to storytelling, and flashy cutscenes coupled with ultra-linear action that makes me want to bash my face against a wall. Ugh
I bought CODBLOPS, but only played about an hour of the re ed SP campaign.
yeah, I had forgotten how the SP on MW2 ended.
But, like I said, the SP has been a joke (IMO) with this series as long as I can remember
It's all about the MP
I do like that Raven is involved, but it seems to me that the 3 dev house approach is risky. We'll see
Well the endless spawn wasn't in MW2 it's treyarch that has that problem
lol wut?
It's been awhile, but I remember well that ghetto level in brazil. If you stayed in one place killing mofos they would never quit spawning. ever
it's a trait of the entire series
lol still playing COD.
The best single player CoD was CoD2, by far.
I stopped playing single player CoD an hour into MW2s campain
Really I will admit that I'm excited for MW3.. if it weren't for the Noobtube/OMA/Danger Close setup that everyone uses I would still be playing mw2 over black ops. They take those things out.. and do what they are doing with making bigger maps and vehicles then I'm all for it.
The co-op "zombie mode but with soldiers instead of zombies" could be pretty good.
ill play this for about a month
Will it take a step back in the graphics department again???
^ yes. they're still building on the same engine
I love CoD, but I am going to be passing on this one. I am working my way up to diamond league in SC2.
You're not going to see much of a positive change in COD till we get new consoles... even if you have a PC they are developing the game with consoles in mind.
One of the big reasons for the series becoming stale. (at least visually)
You don't need to create new engines with better graphics when you're primarily designing games for weak-ass consoles with HUGE limitations
Meanwhile, DICE is polishing off it's brand new Battlefield game on the Frostbite 2 engine. Oh, and PC is the main platform. thank goodness
BF3 is going to be so gnarly. It's just kind of sad that MW3 will likely sell twice the amount of copies.
It's not the series that's getting stale, it's the genre. How many versions of ultra "realistic" war sims do we really need?
Oh CF. How you underestimate mankind's fascination for war.
Shooters aren't going away anytime soon. If ever.
I look forward to watching DICE's Battlefield 3 kick the crap out of MW3.
I figured that a great way to eliminate the camping aspect of MP is to add a special game with zombies in it. It's team deathmatch but with zombies. Stay in one spot long enough and you have to fight off zombies AND the other team. No more team camping a corner. If you think you can hold it off, the other team can rush your position and bring along even more zombies to overrun you and force you to move.
the worst part is that they are not really realistic, they just have real weapons. I'd much rather have fantastic weapons that bring variety than 10 variations of hand guns, machine guns and sniper rifles. the auto heal mechanic typical of modern FPS is just stupid. and to top it off, all of these military shooters make GI Joe look multicultural. I understand that americans won't be offended by the patriotic, US can do no wrong vibe these games have, but doesnt it get boring? the cold war is over folks, and the Iraq / afghanistan wars barely qualify as such (in the words of Bill Hicks, a war is when at least two armies are fighting). if you want to be realistic, there are much more interesting scenarios to play out, like in Far Cry 2 or the Rainbow six series...
the zombie thing has also been abused to the point of absurdity, and the nuclear wasteland scenarios are headed in the same direction. I hope the new Deus Ex and Prey games can revive the sci-fi genre; that and horror types a la Doom / Quake / Painkiller make for the best fps action.
(no point in mentioning HL Ep3 because god knows when that will release)
what happened to the ut99's and quakes
real skill involved there tbh
COD4 >>>>>>> COD: BO >> MW2
I hope MW3 can sit somewhere between COD4 and Black Ops.
I want to see another city get nuked.
Also, not enough opportunities to shoot innocent bystanders.
