Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

6 or so Austrians and a couple of Yanks was my favourite lobby from mid morning today. Allegedly 11k players on KC at the time.

I played earlier with a load of dutch people. I refuse to believe there weren't enough uk people online for me to play with them:rolleyes:
 
I had a few games earlier in the week with some 1 bar lag bags....turned out they was from brazil! Seriously why do I have to play with laggy foreigners!!!!!
 
Its IW's way of bringing the world together. Instead of getting you stuck with some raging northern monkey, in the kindness of their hearts they are match making you with a mexican or that one blip on the map in africa to help broaden your horizons and learn a new language. ;)

Long live IW!

I can understand why they have to do this with just about every other game on the market, but COD has more than enough regional players.
 
Prestiged for the 3rd time last night. :cool:
The only thing bothering me about the game is the Quitters, Personally I take pride in doing well on the losing side as it's more of a challenge but the amount of people that Bail out of the lobby as soon as they know they are on a team with Split Screeners or not on the team with the high rankers. If they don't quit then as soon as they get killed twice or the enemy get a Chopper they Bail. :mad:

That was when you were you playing with me. Couldn't kill either of them and they both ended up top of their team. Funny that,eh?:rolleyes:

I wonder if there's a way I can make this game put me with americans with an american host? I'd be top dog every game!

The thing is I don't want to have to run Blind Eye or change class to shoot things in the air down where you can which more than likely the Split Screeners helped to put up.

In MW2 it was easier to run Cold Blooded and switch from a OMA class without dying first. The most popular streaks were all manageable.

It just isn't the case in this I play TDM and KC solo to avoid every **** and his dog earning EMPs, Stealth Bombers, Juggernaut Recon and Escort Airdrop, but bad players feed these in those game modes too.

I do stay plenty of times, but those are reasons to quit. That and getting compensated.
 
****ing can't stand low ranked split screens. One on my team I can deal with but two, I quit.

Oh definitely is the recon drone, can't believe you get 100point per tag, far too easy and it's impossible to shoot down :p

Does anyone elses kills not add up?

I've got more kills just in the TDM ranks than I have in the overall one...?

Yea, I agree with this.

If you're playing with a bad team it can be a real pain in terms of enemy killstreaks. I've got this expectation that if someone is running with a full-auto AR or SMG then they're gonna be backing it up with a stinger most of the time, but it's surprising how often you can see something like a simple attack chopper lasting a full 75 seconds and racking up 5-6 kills.

It works in reverse though too. I normally run Specialist for the XP, but having seen how rarely people shoot down killstreaks now I've swapped to an Assault Pred/Heli/Reaper with Hardline Pro and my KDR has shot through the roof.
 
This patch has turned sniping into the black ops equivalent. Dead aim on target, nothing happens. I can tell now how broken a game is now as normally you get half a second to scope in and shoot, now you're dead before you can even press the scope button, so no scoping is the only option. I think the patch must be more broken on ps3 from what I've read.

Are you still waiting for the Hotfixes on PS3 (.3/.4)? Things will improve slightly :p

I've still not run the fabled Predator/Reaper/AC130 maybe I should.
 
Finally managed to get my first MOAB earlier after many 21's and 22's, was using the MK14, chuffed! :)

On the overall leaderboard I have 15k kills but on the TDM board I have 16k kills? This the same for anyone else? Only thing I can think of is that time I lost some ranks, I think the TDM board remember those kills but they're not registered overall? Anyone else similar?
 
Just had a game that had people from norway,finland and sweden in. Seriously wtf. Why can't i play with people from my country who don't have 100GB/s connections.
 
I think they're just fudging the player numbers now and the matchmaking is the result of the small pool of players.
 
I've just come from playing Halo where you are beaten by the better team and not simply because of some bull**** such as dole bombers, then you play this steaming pile of **** known as MW3 where all you get is quickscoped and killed by morons sitting on their arses because they get rewards for dying too much. It's just made me realise how bad the game is, it just caters to people with ADHD who need to be constantly killed by none stop explosions.

It was just such a great feeling not being punished just because someone on the enemy team cannot stop dying.
