COD: Modern Warfare 3

Not feeling it, for an arcade shooter where I just want something to drop into for a bit of fun, it doesn’t feel fun at all.

Something off with the movement and just general feel of the gunplay compared to previous CODs.

The maps are the only plus, hopefully they can tweak the gameplay a bit.

I think I read the TTK is longer in this one on the steam forums, maybe that's what is feeling off. Quite big for a demo at 73.5GB.

God, I was messing around since I posted trying to figure out why I was only getting 11MBs download. Switched steam servers, checked the router and realised I had a connection of 100mbps, reset the router and tried firmware updates, tried rolling back drivers on my ethernet NIC etc finally realised the network cable was half out... ffs lol. At least I'm back up to 115MBs and I finally changed my router name.

Experience so far. Launched the game, took me through some videos which I couldn't skip, already frustrated.
Took me to a map screen full of unlockable crap I didn't care about, again quite annoyed.
Backed out and finally saw the game launch options, MP is currently locked behind a prepurchase button so I guess I have to wait until 6pm as someone else mentioned.
 
As someone who enjoys MW2019 and Cold War but hates MW2 i have to say this may not be for me either.
TTk is nice but i feels like DLC in all honesty.
There is something very weird with mouse aiming, feels very inconsistent, cant say its a server issue just it feels weird and i cant be as precise as pretty much any other shooter.
Oh and the controller magnet aim assist is present.
It might be worth 30 euros as the maps are nice apart from that ****** rust map but deffo not worth price of brand new full game.

Out of all maps I hate estate dosnt feel like I remember it, probs because I forgot all my old strategy I had for map.

Also need to cut off allowing people to get on roofs on highrise really annoying.

Overall it's a meh game I'll probably play it because my friends are, when playing dosnt feel me with joy, I was having more fun watching it before PC early access tbh.
 
This feels and looks like old school COD. I'm really liking the run speed and TTK, very arcadey. That said it seems they are selling the same game over and over again. I've already got a COD game on my PC with the Rust Map from only 3 years ago. Also the graphics look 10 years old compared to more recent COD games. No raytracing either?

Thought the Ground War map Orlov was quite good.

Had fun playing the beta but it's not worth £60.

Currently downloading the BETA - Will give it a blast but doubtful a purchase from me until it reduces, even then will only buy it for Single Player.

Lots of talk of Controller Aim Assist being sticky and being a huge advantage over Mouse and Keyboard at times. :o
 
from playing i dont get why people give these people billions each year. this game is basically mw2 called mw3. so you basically playing a 2009 game looks about the same as a 2009 game and they charge you minimum £60 for this pleasure.

the game is boring. same as usual campfest one shot snipers. will get old real quick as you played it to death for all those years years ago. these people need competition cause the fps game scene is screwed. no one is pushing anything new good and just going with safe. while that continues we will just keep getting rehashed crap like this.

Click to expand...

Most of it is Skins! You only have to load the game and see people running around wit flashy characters and guns, which makes the company even more $$$$££££
 
Cod2, Cod4, MW2, Black Ops 1 - Firm favourites of mine.

However I was a lot younger then, maybe age is a factor of why we tend not to gel with these games as much as previous years, or maybe the case for me.

It’s like crack for younger kids still!
 
It felt like older cod’s to me which is a good thing. I’ve played few games this afternoon

Will play more this evening but early impressions are good so far
 
I don't know if I have less patience for tolerating rubbish these days but I just fired this up and after numerous issues getting it running and playing a few games I just thought what a massive pile of crap this is. Graphics are pants as is the gameplay. I suspect I have just outgrown the twitch shooting adhd riddled nonsense that is COD but this beta just saved me some cash.
 
I don't mind it, loaded first time, plays nice enough. I hit level 700 in MW2 so played plenty and this one seems more same. It feels like an expansion pack not a new game though adn full price is steep. Age wise, i'm 52 ands till like killing people for no reason in game.

the aim assist is still very heavy imo.
