please post an update on your thoughts/ opinions on the changes they made

Have a great night all you midnight players !!

Man do I hope some retailer over here decides to have some release offer for like $40.
If so, I'll definitely be picking this up today.

hum Q-scoping seems bad and the aim assist with the snipers is strong
i got killed 3 times by one guy through walls with no windows .
i watched the kill cams on all to see what i did wrong and each time
you could see the gun change its aim and then he just pulled the trigger .

maps will take sum getting used to but i like them so far

first thoughts after 2 hours play is it does not feel that new or fresh for a new game
but umm how to put it Mw2 2.0 maybe but i am just starting so we will see

I had almost no issues playing last night. Loving the construction map currently.

I also hate Q-Scoping, but at least commando and scavengable noob tube rounds are gone!

Who would've thunk it?

wadey do you think it could be some clipping problems, like being able to put the scope and barrel through a wall and seeing outside of it?

nah, that's quick scoping, part of why I hate it. Just like in campaign it has a snap to aim assist that if you are near (even through a wall) it will snap too. Hopefully it will be corrected, as quick scoping is bad enough on it's own without being able to aim through walls.

Change of heart , this game looks too good to miss lol . I am selling my copy of COD:World at War and MvC3 to earn money to buy this !!!

well i have got over the (i cant do a thing right and hate this game stage) and
its turning out to be a good game.
the kill streak system in this game is a lot different to all the past cod games
and it quit a neat inclusion .
instead of just 1 list of kill streaks you have 3 diff class of kill streaks

class 1.assault, list of 18 kill streaks that are like normal you earn them and there
gone if you die this class is just for killing the other team .

class 2, support, list of about 18 kill streaks that support your team
and they dont go away if you die you are always working towards your next
kill streak all the way to the end of your game.

class,3 strategic,you pick 3 more perks that you earn like kill streaks so you can
have your 3 class perks + 3 kill streak perks =6 perks all up .

so the kill streak set up is unique to each class you make its not one kill streak
set up for all classes .
i have 5 classes and 4 of them have different KS set ups.

i know a lot of people say they hate cod and dont get KS out all the time because
they only get 10-12 kills a game and 1 or 2 kills at a time now if you pick
support KS you dont stop earning them and you will still get your 12 ks out

Single Player?

Alright, so that means players such as myself should definitely go for class 2
Do you reckon that the gameplay is anything different from MW2, Wadey?

Any thoughts on the campaign or possibly even Spec Ops?

I'm reeeeally curious about a lot of things regarding this game and frankly I don't care if it's all that much MW2 all over again, I didn't play that (except for a few games) so to me it would still be a new experience.

I've only played the first few checkpoints on campaign. Pretty much same feel as MW2 so no compaints here. As before I'm playing as Veteran so might take a while.

Not tried the Spec Ops yet.

To add to Wadey's post, another great thing they've added on the killsteaks is that if you have several earned, e.g. UAV, air strike, whatever; you can select which one you want to use. This have been a huge annoyance in every other Call of Duty game so glad it has finally been fixed.

Honestly I can't work up the enthusiasm for it. \_(o.o)_/

those changes sound neat. how have the matches been connection wise? im leery of p2p, but have they improved the system at all?


that support class sounds pretty neat so far as the ks go.

for me it has been pretty good so far only had 1 game that was bad lag still host migrations but it seems to find
a new host fine.

to add to the kill streaks thingy if you have class 2 support class if you take out any air support with a non kill streak launcher it
counts to your kill streak i am 99% sure of this
o and kill streaks are linked in this game so kills from you KS will count to your next KS.

SP i have played only a bit but i must say i like it its a lot better than any of the cod SP i have played before (normally i hate cod SP)

@Reo the game MP play feels like mw2 to start with but after a while it does not feel like it imo with all the extra stuff with customizing your
set up its not like mw2.the SP does feel more like mw2 but sharper imo graphics are pretty sweet though .

there is no NUKE yay

Seemed good to me last night, but I tried to play a few games this morning and server kept timing out, then when I did get into a game seemed a little choppy. Not unplayable choppy, but noticeable.

Could just be time of day, not likely to be many in the UK playing at 9am - should be at work or college, so I think it connected me to the other side of the world or something.

Groan. I hate that.

I feel like such a minority for saying this but i am enjoying MW3 , but keep in mind i have never played any of the MW games (always held a firm hatred for call of duty), i have only clocked about like 2 games on mw2 and 3 games on cod 4 but so far i am liking the multiplayer of MW3, I agree that its nothing special, but its so fast pase that its .. its just fun so fun.

no nuke is good news. i absolutely hated the fact that someone who was very skilled could end the whole game in a couple mins if they the right ks in order. how about chopper gunner?

I must say, one thing I DO like about the COD series is the 60fps graphics. Other games seem rather stuttery in comparison. (Yes, I'm looking at YOU R2 and R3.)

FTFY. Every nuke I ever saw was from lame boosters. skill. pfft.

@etw, it's only the 'support' KS that don't reset, so doesn't include chopper gunner and such

I have only had one laggy game so far, and as Wadey said, the host mitigation is working really well. Just need to get elite working now :/

A lot of streaks were removed, no nukes for instance. Support streaks help the team more, and don't reset on death, but require more kills to get up there.

I like support rolls so, I haven't even used the assault package yet.

SP is pretty epic, better then MW2 for sure. Lot's of great moments... almost done my first veteran playthrough before easy mode for trophy clean up and intel.

(T_T) Check out my nuke vids over at my "SLAwoodencock" channel? I think I've got one Rust, Rundown & Afghan. They were fun doing, but I normally didn't go for them.
