Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

the striker is ridiculously overpowered. range on it is frightening

It really isn't. Just put it on and go into a private match. Fire it at the wall and test the range. The bullets vanish totally pretty fast.

The akimbo weapons are an actual secondary yet people instantly change from their primary weapon to them as they spawn, that should tell you something is wrong with them.

Don't talk rubbish.

In game says otherwise. Why are there always at least 4 people using it per game, and it seems to kill from nearly any position on the map. By that i mean the maps a quite small so at near enough any turn you can hit a door way, ally etc where someone will be coming out.

It over powers near enough anything up to mid range, yes even assault rifles as you can fire that many shots down.
 
Firstly the guy takes zero damage from the Betty even though the minimum damage is 70 which surprised me (see my misjudgement :o). Blast Shield would reduce that to 38.5 at best, but it still takes 6 MP9 bullets to kill him (a minimum of 114 damage) this contrasts with the distant kill of someone else freshly spawned courtesy of Greboth with full health.

And what does that say about the damage stats? (What I would like to say would get me banned) That they dont mean a thing! This games is broken :) with so much lag compensation and other rubbish the stats dont mean anything!

I played a game earlier, Put 6 round from a striker into a guy laid down, at pretty much point blank and got 1 single bit of hit reg, he managed to kill me with a pistol, then I re spawned, found the guy was still laid down in the same place, got to the same distance and killed him with two shots from a AK....

People use the Striker because the other shotguns are ****ing terrible.

Mid range? REALLY? The pellets from the Striker disappear after a 3-4 second sprinting distance so I've no idea how you're losing mid range fire fights with an assault rifle, but my guess is that you're over exaggerating the distance just because you don't like being killed by it.

 
Spawns seem better. Only had one bad game on village where it kept spawning me near the other team. At one point I got killed next to the well,spawned inside the cave and just ran out and killed the player that killed me.

If they don't mean a thing why did he die at 6 bullets? Which is the correct amount needed from the MP9. Explosives have never been 100% reliable in Modern Warfare even offline.

Anyway I've leveled up my Striker and with Damage it's a lot more reliable now even with lag and against foreigners.
 
Ah, but you see it's on Specialist so I get Range at all perks. If you do it the other way round you don't get Damage.

I was running Range all night until I unlocked Damage close range shots are so much more reliable. I have the MP9 if I need range initially.
 
Grrr. Another day of raping in one game, then being raped in the next.

Time for a break before I go postal.

Haha same feelings here earlier - matchmaking was being a complete git today, no idea why our party was being put against people from Spain and Finland!

Spawning also hasn't really seemed any better since the update.
 
Do they usually just do live server side updates over patches?

Will keep an eye on the patch number in MP.

Trying out shotguns now. Not sure what weapon I like the best...

with MW3 they do.

To stop the hacking debacle that was MW2, they moved almost everything they could server side with MW3. This means that updating values for weapon damages, maps, tweaks etc.. can be done via server hotfixes.

Ah, I'd forgotten about that, fair point.

Watch this instead:


Awful video. The director sounds really jealous and bitter. He also doesn't give any proper evidence except for his angry insistence. Not to mention that throughout the video he is using a shotgun with Range.
