Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

I never played MW1 back when it was released (well, I played the campaign) but I tried it a few weeks ago. Came across two hackers in my first game, switched lobby and there was an aimbotter in it. I just gave up and didn't bother trying again. It was unplayable.

COD4 was the best of the lot back in its day, much better than all the COD's since for MP. So simple and yet so effective, pure gun on gun action on the best maps on any COD.
Those were the days :(

I've heard quite a few people say that. I'd love to try it out but those hackers put me off for life. Shame. I think Black Ops is my favourite so far, but I played it to death so I've moved on to MW3, which is good, but a step backwards in some ways from Blops

I just gave up and didn't bother trying again. It was unplayable. I've never came across a hacker in any other game, ever, then 3 in my first 2 games? What a joke. This was on 360 too, so I imagine it's worse on PC.

No hackers so far in MW3. Fewer quickscopers and noob tubers too. Less BS generally than previous games. Still lots of corner campers. I don't know if any of this applies to the PC version and community though. CoD is really meant for console IMO.

ps3 or pc.

Never saw any cheaters on pc personally back when i played cod4mw1 3-4 years ago?..mw2 on ps3 was hacked every server.

You can still play on Pc, loadsa servers....dunno about hackers? NOt played for years but no hackers back in the day.

Doubt people will load up a 4 year old game to hack anwyay, they prob play the newest games. Surely?

Im only gonna buy MW3 to play my ps3 buddies online..but if the maps suck maybe i wont?

I have balck ops on ps3 but never played online...its better than MW2?...i thought it was meant to be worse, all my mates skipped it and went back to mw2.

I felt mw1 was miles better than MW2 so I just played MW1.

It's a matter of opinion. If you like quick scoping, noob tubing or other BS then yeah, Blops is worse. Personally I like how in Blops the weapons have more recoil, so you have to have more skill, or control, to use them. Weapons also do less damage so if someone shoots you in the ass you can sometimes turn and kill them, if you're fast and they're terrible. This isn't the case in the MW games. Even if the guy's a bad player, you're dead before you can do anything about it 99% of the time. It's these things which IMO make Blops more a game of skill, and MW more noob-friendly (luck can get you more kills).

Blops also had great maps, and fun weapons like the ballistic knife and tomahawk. The Cod points and wager matches were also great additions. You could also turn off aim assist, and mix audio (voice, FX etc) seperately, both features which are missing in MW3. Furthermore in Blops Hardcore mode, after 3 team kills you were booted, and these didn't count as deaths for the guys you killed. In MW3 you can kill as many of your team as you want, and it counts towards their deaths. I assume everything that I've just said about MW3 is also true for earlier MW games.

They don't all suck. There's just not enough variation. If you like close quarters engagements then you might love the map pool. Just not everybody does (proper sniping is impossible in MW3, for example)

ah blops is more like MW1 then...MW1 was pretty raw and skilled game..I hated MW2 as it was OTT...perks, kill streaks, guns, quick kills, etc..plus i didnt like the maps.

Black ops I have on my ps3 maybe ill try it out..whats some good maps and guns?

well thats good snipers pi$$ me off tbh.

Fav maps on MW1 are prob medium size but if you havent played them no point to say or compare..but maps like ambush, crossfire, backlot, strike and crash and district etc..really i have never seen any mpas on this quality since..

Indeed, for me personally, going by their initial year of release so ignoring hacks that have happened since.

COD4 > Black Ops > MW3 > MW2 > WAW

MW3 better than MW2? No way! :p

I'd go COD4>MW2>Black Ops>MW3

This years effort is the worst of the bunch so far. There's far too many problems with it and 3/4 of the game is literally cut&paste from MW2.

Same for me except I'd put MW2 ahead of 3 purely for maps. I can live with the stupid overpowered killstreaks on mw2 just to play the better maps ahead of MW3.

I'd happily go back to cod 4 even with it's older engine if it wasn't so utterly ruined by being cast aside.:(

I'd agree with mw2 being better than mw3. I still feel blops is the most balanced cod.

When I was grinding out my MW3 token I really didn't see this. Multiple explosives, Sonic Boom, no Blind Eye perk and no accurate lock on launcher to shoot down helicopters with. The latter really worked to boost my KD in TDM :D Maps and spawns played a role too.

You could potentially deliver 1500 explosive damage with the 3x Frags perk, Sonic Boom and Martyrdom :eek:

In MW2 I could play on the most rubbish of teams on open maps like Wasteland simply because I could wipe their butts by shooting everything down except for maybe the odd Care Package AC130. I cannot do the same in Modern Warfare especially on maps like the aptly named Bog :p It is barely an MP map though that one as it's almost 100% cut & paste from the SP.
 
I want a map pack soon

This. There are 16 maps, but it feels like i play the same 7 or 8 over and over again. Plus its been over a month, what happened to this whole monthly DLC thing?

Am i the only one who would like to see new maps only though? I dont want any rehashed old maps ive already played to death before from previous CODs.
 
Hi overclockers, I used to play KZ3 regularly in the OcUK clan, I'm starting to get into MW3 but I'm in need of PS3 players to play with. no one on my 360 friendlist was playing it, so I traded it for the PS3 version!

Can you help a brother out and invite me to the PS3 MW3 OcUK clan if you have one on Elite? My PSN ID: richardtron
 
I haven't played it online for over a week due to the net code state of affairs and the video upload link being broken for almost a week too.

The theatre mode needs some serious patching as well since it seems to cut a few seconds off of the start, but you will only notice this after you reached the point of no return and left the editing stage.

If you could go back to the Manage Segments phase it would be at least something, but it shouldn't do it in the first place.
