Played about 10 matches last night, won exactly one. Held an even KD, which I didn't expect after so much time off. Seems like dudes were taking a lot more shots to go down than I was, but who knows. Elite site didn't seem to register any the stats and is slow as balls.

Elite is a bunch of fail, atleast for PC.

I kinda want to get this game just for the co-ops and survival mode (but without zombies). This is what black ops should have been last year. I donno why I even bothered with blops.

11/8/2011 10:19:37 AM

I'll probably breakdown and pick up a copy of this today or later this week, I'm drod900 on PS3

11/8/2011 10:45:41 AM

spawn system sucks, there is still quite a bit of lag (i fire at a guy and die...watch the killcam and see I never even shot), and the grenades are underpowered. Still a fun game that will replace MW2 for me.

11/8/2011 10:50:00 AM

spawns suck. Maps just don't "feel" right, maybe too small or something.

Kill confirmed is my new favorite game type. Spec Ops was fun and I enjoyed that.

11/8/2011 11:14:39 AM

as much as I bitched about painkiller, it made sense with the way the spawns work

11/8/2011 11:15:52 AM

what is wrong with the spawns

11/8/2011 11:17:03 AM

^haven't had a chance to play 3 yet but if its like 2 its just predictable.

Our goal in domination was to always bottle up the opponents on one point then its just a matter of switching between 2 3 spots and catching people on the spawn as long as everyone keeps moving and gives them room to spawn at the spot you aren't spawning at.

11/8/2011 11:20:15 AM

Someone find our new skid row

Tree and I need a new home base

11/8/2011 11:20:59 AM

I would just shoot infinite noob tubes up into that building in skid row.

11/8/2011 11:26:42 AM

You couldn't hit me, I would duck behind that file cabinet and go prone. And good luck trying to barge your way in. Infinite claymores would thwart even your most persistent efforts.

11/8/2011 11:31:04 AM

I kept trying to dolphin dive last night

11/8/2011 11:31:55 AM

Haha, I would do that too if I got up in there. The only people who could get me was when I was resetting a claymore.

11/8/2011 11:32:44 AM

how's the single player campaign? short?

11/8/2011 11:35:01 AM

How's the party chat system implemented?

I hope its like BLOPS where you can just stay in your XBL party

11/8/2011 11:36:32 AM

picked it up at lunch, but had to go back to work.

i'm ready to mount up

11/8/2011 12:14:28 PM

bout to start running around maps in Private Mode


I can't find audio settings ANYwhere ... in Black Ops there was a place to set it to surround sound headphones

[Edited on November 8, 2011 at 12:19 PM. Reason : ]

11/8/2011 12:16:52 PM

HOLY FUCK there's some recoil in this game...

and i feel so impeded in my movements - the run is much shorter and slower it seems. it's more like black ops is what i mean lol

11/8/2011 12:24:20 PM

Spawns are a mix between MW2 and World at War. I always thought Black Ops had a good spawn system. With MW3 it seemed like I was getting spawns close to an enemy more often. That could also be because there was a ton of folks running around and the map layout for the smaller maps are a little wonky. The smaller maps had the feeling of Rust, no where safe to spawn and two steps out of cover you're getting shot at.

11/8/2011 12:28:58 PM

^^i'm sure you're doing just fine with your pointing and clicking

11/8/2011 1:05:38 PM

Called around.... NOWHERE HAS HARDENED EDITION. Fucking dicks, and every damn phone system (Best Buy, ToysRUs, Gamestop, etc) never fucking answer within a few minutes, then put you on hold for another 10-15.

Best Buy is the worst by far.

11/8/2011 1:23:23 PM

hardened editions has sold out online preorder volumes well before the first of the month. I find it hard to believe you'll find it anywhere in store.

11/8/2011 1:28:57 PM

yeah good luck finding a hardened edition outside of ebay (at jacked up prices).

11/8/2011 1:33:36 PM

that was something you had to preorder really

11/8/2011 1:37:58 PM

This is the best expansion map pack for MW2 I've bought, though it was a little more expensive. Most of them are only like $15 and I think there is a glitch because all my stats reset.

11/8/2011 1:42:22 PM

Single player is short, I hear.

But it's so fast paced, it hardly matters.




The spawns are the only issue with MP I have so far, and that's not even all that frequent.

11/8/2011 1:44:41 PM

^^^^^^^ LOL y u mad? Point and click doesn't make it any easier...it's just what you're used to...

11/8/2011 1:49:13 PM

I walked into target and found a hardened edition, while I was getting my prescription filled

I feel like a geek.

11/8/2011 1:53:52 PM

Point and click makes it much easier. Do not lie.

11/8/2011 1:54:05 PM

Skipped over to Gamestop and just got the game plus an Elite membership or whatever... total= $117.40

11/8/2011 2:12:00 PM

lol if you feel it does then get a XIM and stop crying...i've been schooled by plenty of xbox players who are used to the xbox controls and are just as fast or faster than me to react.

the kb/mouse doesn't add any advantage - just translates inputs from a KB/M into inputs the xbox understands. the device is actually called a smart translator...

but anyhow, everyone likes to think people that are better than them are cheaters!!1 so whatever helps you sleep at night kids...

/egoTrip pz

11/8/2011 2:12:49 PM

Is the XIM just as responsive as using KB+M on a computer? I'd like to point and click on 360. Plus its way easier to turn on people.

11/8/2011 2:19:05 PM

are you seriously arguing against KB+M in a thread about a FPS game?

11/8/2011 2:27:52 PM

So whats the setup?

The class everyone will be running for a month or two till they nerf it.

11/8/2011 2:35:18 PM

ive been switching between the first custom class and first recon, depending on what the lag lets me do

11/8/2011 2:50:09 PM

submachine guns way too powerful still?

11/8/2011 2:57:05 PM

Little bs with sub machine guns this am. The scar got a bigger clip and i was getting hosed pretty consistant with that. Im not sure there is a "class" everyone will be running. The mods to guns are pretty extensive, barely scratched the surface i think

11/8/2011 3:14:46 PM

If I can get my TAR back I'll be a happy man...especially if there's a proficiency with it to reduce recoil

11/8/2011 3:17:22 PM

Better than MW2? What about black ops?

11/8/2011 3:34:49 PM

Better than MW2. Yes. Without a doubt.

11/8/2011 4:20:27 PM

lol

11/8/2011 4:24:44 PM

lolz probably


i used to play regularly with Dammit100 and one of his buddies but we'll see if they get back on.

11/8/2011 4:25:16 PM

11/8/2011 4:32:32 PM

I was doing pretty well earlier with some TWW'ers. however, the running is slower in this game. I miss marathon/lightweight and just straight rushing like a madman

11/8/2011 4:36:38 PM

I'll be mounting tonight on 360

11/8/2011 5:00:40 PM

Oh cool. Your character dies.

11/8/2011 5:18:51 PM

I'm in for this one as well, pre-ordered it from Newegg on special, but hasn't shipped yet. I played Blops with you guys for a little while. Between work obligations and Battlefield 3 I'll be juggling for playtime but I'm sure I'll be back around to get stomped by the rest of you soon enough.

I wasn't planning on getting this game, but I broke down and got it today. Kill Confirmed mode is the tits.
