Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

It's not theatre mode it's lag compensation rearing it's head again, I suffered from it mildly in Black ops but don't seem too as much in this. It has been present in COD games since Black ops and can be adjusted if you know how by giving your self a high ping this will give you a huge advantage, unfortunately again if you have a great low ping connection (basically if you ruled the roost on MW2) you will suffer on this.

Nothing to do with green bars on the game you can have 4 still with a wild ping, I think the green bars represent quality of connection rather than ping.
 
I think some of the connection problems last night might have been due to Infinity Ward running stress tests on elite. I'm sure the last time they did something similar it locked up the leaderboards which is exactly what was happening last night.

I'm getting bloody annoyed with the Stealth Bomber on this, lost a great kill streak last night due to someone running a support class and picking up a SB, only for it to then kill me when I was inside a building, infuriating to say the least.

Depends completely on map and play style but I run 5 classes all set to assualt so take advantage of all maps and situations. All classes run with semtex and flash bangs.I can't remember perk names though but

Class 1 - Small maps when air support or uavs are up a lot
Primary: UMP 45 Rapid fire and kick
Secondary: Launcher
Perks: Anti Air support (blind eye I think) Anti Uav and No noise (ghost?)

Class 2: Small maps when I really want to run and gun, lots of cover if helicopters go up etc.
Same as above but machine pistol for secondary and perks: sleight of hand, quick aim and steady aim.

Class 3: Bigger maps or with more open areas where ump45 doesn't the range
Same as class 1 but with Primary as ACR with kick and silencer

Class 4: Bigger maps or with more open areas where ump45 doesn't the range
Same as class 2 but with Primary as ACR with kick and silencer

Class 5: For those times when I want a bit of both.
Primary: UMP 45 rapid fire and kick
Secondary: ACR with kick and red dot
Perks (IIRC) is, sleight of hand, 2 primary weapon (overlord?) and Steady aim.

I find that it gives me the option and ability to quickly change between classes depending on the map I am playing on. Though it depends completely on preference, I know a mate of mine who is very similar level hates the ump45 (and the other SMG's) and sticks to purely AR's.

Happens tomeall the time. I can be inside a well covered room with only a window and still die yet i can be outside under a small ledge and survive :confused:
 
Starting to love this game now :D

Need to start using my killstreaks effectively. For some reason I always run around a corner and hit my uav just to get riddled with bullets with a remote control in my hand lol

Also need to stop sprinting after campers after they kill me.

Tell me about it! As you know I will pull host 9 out of 10 times and end up with a completely gimped playing experience because of it :(

Need to downgrade my intarwebs!
 
Quick question guys, is this better on PC or 360?

Last FPS i played was Joint Operations, is this as good? Or is BF3 more my game?

Any help appreciated!

Cheers :)
 
Anbody else really struggle with finding a game on XBL? It can take over 15 mins sometimes for me.

If you kind people would add me so I can join a game via friends I'd really appreciate it!

Noticed with the patch well was playing game for about an hour and seems pretty smooth, not saying the finding a game is easier but in terms of smoothness on menus and freezing has stopped touch wood.

were you in that private match with that guy that was playing with us fangzy he is untouchable and wins all one on one's. I can not touch him, when I got the drop on him I had no bullet registration and he had enough time to turn and kill me LIKE HELL. No wonder he had a 2.6 KDR, that is pure lag compensation.

There is a great video on youtube about it but it has one naughty word in it so can't post it here basically the guy goes online and plays and gets out gunned 9/10 then he gives himself 250ms of lag and gets the drop on everyone.

They need to sort out the lag. It's pointless sniping now. All you get is hit markers, even at dead aim.

At least now when you run around dressed as a bush they give you a baseball cap, so now your a bush with a red neck cap, I have a tip for you instead of rushing around trying to be griz or optic predator why don't you try actually using another weapon that fires more then one bullet at a time. :p
