(Hesitant) Modern Warfare 3 Thread

Yeah, but that doesn't make bf3 good. I've always liked the bf games, but not that much. I love most the cod games, and I think these features would add to the experience. They aren't deal breakers though. I haven't seen anything in bf3 making it worth buying, besides those features and thats not enough to shell out $60.

Confused? :confused: How is COD different than BF3? Besides the graphics in BF3 are better, interactive enviroment, vehicles.

To me they are the same. Same choice of guns, type of levels, just take a look at the campaign. They even both have that stupid kill cam thing. In the past I have bought COD4, MW2, Black Ops, and now BF3... I'm tired all together on buying the same game over and over with the added touch of a little bit of graphical design. So will i buy MW3? Hell no... Like i said before I'll borrow it, finish the campaign, that's it. :P

One day i dream of a company to come out with the next generation of game. Something that has not been done before ever. Something that makes your jaw drop. I'm not talking about taking the same idea as the other guy and modifying it slightly (eh em BF3) but take an entirely different idea and recreating the game industry.

:o....just :O

o.O im not impressed.

lol, no each to there own, i personally think 4 was the best, the others lost my interest after a few week.
 
I am thinking about picking it up but I am going to wait for the reviews to come out for it. I am kinda bored with BF3 already. I went back to MW2 and had more fun there then I did with BF3. I love some of the advancements that the battlefield series brought to it's games but I just don't have any fun playing the game.
 
I'm not getting it because I have already played it, anybody that has played CoD 4 or MW2 has, it is an expansion at best, just a very expensive one.

In the same way as there were MW2 and BLOPs mods for CoD4 that were pretty much identical to the actual games within the week of release, the same will happen with coD.

The sooner this series takes the hint and dies a horrible, painful death, the better. Once again, IW and Activision have taken a massive dump on PC gamers by not offering dedicated servers.

Before anyone goes saying they have, no, they haven't, unranked only so you are forced to use the awful, unsupervised, laggy, sucky P2P servers. Why they couldn't keep with dedicated servers is beyond me.

Here is to playing CoD4 and BF3 and realising I haven't wasted my money like all of the people that are dense enough to go and buy it

You haven't played the game yet to be able to say what it'll be like.
Aaanndd...you bought BF3. So far, it's not worth the money.

All joking aside, yes I have played the game, it is MW2 renamed ;)

aaaaaaaaaaand BF3 has been worth every penny, absolutely brilliant game
 
Yeah I perfer battlefield 3 but was let down by their single player ... Looking forward to MW3 's single player... you never know... they might make hudge advances this year....I bought black ops and could not get through the single player because it stunk. Reviews should be pouring in soon... im guessing a great singleplayer and an arcade like multiplayer

Not a truer word said.

With that said, its a shame we cant borrow games on pc's, just for the campaign. Iv followed the story this far, im going to have to see how it ends eventually :P Hopefully wont be long until some online retailer decides there are too many pc versions on the shelf and cuts the price considerably. :P

You played a beta or a leaked copy? Wow they really are not having dedicated servers again? Will the multiplayer be 64 players?

Nope, no dedi servers other than unranked, so the only way to unlock things and be able to play as you want:

forced to play on the P2P
Find a server that has server options changed (if these are allowed).

however, even with that said, it appears up to this point that "dedicated" servers will be locally hosted, not by a dedicated company. Either way, you are on P2P, will be full of kids because no self respecting person whose age is in double figures and doesn't start with 1 will be buying it, and you will have the amazing gameplay (yea right :rolleyes:) that you had in MW2

So, with all of that, no 64 players, you will be lucky to have 20

=EDIT=

dedicated servers are preorderable, however they were for MW2 too, and look how that tuned out ;)

With your first post, i totally hear ya. You don't have to play MW3 to have already played MW3. Every game is the same, nothing has changed.

Dedicated servers are soon DEADicated servers. Every company see's the cost of maintaining and keeping dedicated servers and say no. Not when so many people on console don't mind the P2P. PC gaming is slowly being the same as console.

I disagree with BF3. It was a big disappointment. Not in the sense of graphics, sounds and interactive enviroment/vehicles. More in the sense of campaign and multiplayer is pretty close to COD. I was even more disappointed when i found out that Co-op campaign, is not co-op campaign at all, it's co-op missions. BF3 is an "ok" rating in my book, but still highly disappointed.

Thats the way i feel,i'm disappointed in the game too me it's COD with big maps.Just run and gun no teamwork which that is what the game is about i think.

I've got to disagree mate, playing on your own is possible, however you will always do better in a team. Doing so regularly with the clan, I can tell you know you win a hell of a lot more even with just 1 squad working properly.

The only thing I do when I play on my own is fly jets or take the helis, because you can't really do that in a squad (except for have a gunner in the heli)

That is deviating from the main thread though, I guess it is what happens when a superior game is mentioned in a thread with a topic about something that should be looked upon as below something you would find stuck to the bottom of your shoe
 
Anyone going to cod mw3 launch at midnight ?

Was just curious if anyone is going to the midnight launch of mw3 at any of the game shops tonight
 
I have merged your threads, please keep related topics in the same thread, there is no need to create a new one when a suitable one already exists

Haha, quit being such a fan boy. Several million copies of the game will be sold, and a vast majority of those people will continue to play and enjoy it. Yeah, you can think it's no good, but when you are outnumbered millions to 1, you aren't going to hold the community's opinion.

Same for BF3. You think it's great. That doesn't make it a great game.
 
If MW3 runs better than BF3 and doesn't crash all the time then I don't care if it's the same, better, or worse. I just want a game to play and not fight me every hour.
