I'm enjoying multi much more than people were making out it to be

still feels a bit MW2 - but with more gun fights =

Just went into Tesco in Reading and got 2100 points and the game.

Tesco order will go to a mate whos agreed to buy it. Funny thing is I probably won't play it much tonight anyway.

Yeah but if you use the points it's still a far better deal anyway. I have just done the same and will return the online one for a refund.

In multiplayer? YAY if so. I know it will be really difficult but I will actually feel in control for once.

I'll just double check 2 secs.

EDIT:

MP options.. Can be set to ENABLED/DISABLED

Are you guys saying that autoaim actually works in multiplayer :\?

I'm pretty sure every game that allows that sort of assist has been strictly single player only... I've not really played the last 3 CODs online so I guess I've missed that... sounds seriously stupid.

was just playing some search to see what's it like on this,and there was a kill cam the guy jump around the corner with that stupid drop shot thing,and the gun was nowhere near him,yet he was getting hit markers,and i thought mw2 was bad for hit markers,also the drop shot thing is fine on single player but why have it on this?

Oh yeah definately, shame my £5 off £50 voucher expired 2 days ago.

Tesco's seemed to drop the ball a bit on this with online orders, might have a little moan to see if they bother to give me a voucher or something. Luckily very and asda came through hunky dory

There's been aim assist in every COD game on console MP. Or atleast since COD4 when I started playing them.

ONESHOTKILL · 9 Nov 2010 at 18:49

and the granades make the same sound,that stupid bouncing noise.

Macky · 9 Nov 2010 at 18:49

Cheers ck88. And Zefan when you drag your crosshair over someone have you never noticed considerable slow down whilst doing so making it much easier to kill them.

ck88 · 9 Nov 2010 at 18:51

meh.. I don't like it but I know I'll get kapowned with it off. I've already been 'sucked off' an opponent a few times when someone has ran past in the distance, it's quite frustrating.

Why o why does this game have to be so frantic most of the time??

Yeah I've noticed that a bit, it can be a bit too much at times.

Also, the game seems to want me to shoot peoples hands clean off. There's a certain bit where it doesn't matter where I shoot the enemy, his hand will still fly off - even if I shoot him somewhere else... nice work

Also, has anyone noticed the spectacular slowmo flying bucket

?

Sounds like my sort of game.

TripleT · 9 Nov 2010 at 18:58

Played a few games and it seems ok, pretty different from MW2.

Getting a Server is unavailable message now and can't get in to a game though :confused:

Servers are probably hammered, they should have thought of this though surely?

I've only played the single player, and I thought it'd be a good idea to turn the auto-aim off so I'd get a better feel for what the multiplayer would be like (not get used to the auto-aim, if you get what I mean), but if you can use auto-aim anyway with no penalty, what's the point :confused:

Mull3t · 9 Nov 2010 at 19:04

RC-XD = biggest fail ever. Other player on other team got majority of his kills with it, was one point where I heard it, ran, jumped out the window onto a roof and it was still following me. How does he get it so quickly each time? Is it a perk?

Well the auto-aim on singleplayer is different. You tap left trigger near an enemy and it locks onto them. I think aim-assist is also on singleplayer too so it becomes very easy. On multiplayer auto-aim is not there and now you have the ability to turn aim-assist off too. Making it pretty much like a PC version only with lesser controls.
