So this is gonna be the first COD I buy on pc and i was wondering how many people play this online on pc? Am I gonna have trouble finding people to play with like a year from now?

You won't have problems. People still play MW2, Blops etc. You can also add me on steam

MW3 is one of the most played games on steam at the moment, black ops and MW2 don't do that bad either I think. You'll be fine in a year, no problem.

 

[bryanee]

Just got an email from ShopTo telling me they've charged my account, should be dispatching real soon now!

They're shipping on Monday. It tells you on your account page.

 

[kuYuri]

Just got a new patch for this game.

Probably the day 1 TU, seems to be a Thing for all the big games

The day one patch for MW3 turned on Theatre and Elite functionality, probably the same case for BOII.

 

[Kapow]

Around 50,000-90,000 will probably be the number for BO2 PC at launch. You won't have trouble finding people to play with a year from now but that will probably be the case three years from now.

As long as there's enough people playing until the next release then i'm happy. Just pre-ordered it a minute ago too.

 

[GasProblem]

Really want to get this on PC, to play it together with my nephew.

Just waiting it out to see how it's going to turn out on PC, performance and hacker wise.

 

[bryanee]

I noticed on the PS3 unboxing you get a code for the nuketown map but on the WiiU unboxing no code to be found, is it on the disc for WiiU or is the WiiU not getting it?

 

[KyleN]

First Batch of all games will have nuketown dlc code inside the box.

Nope. Not in EU atleast.

Same here, I have hopes they will do a better job than Blops.

I know Black Ops fixed their care package glitch in a prerelease patch. I guess you can refer to it as a Day 1 patch cause most people will be downloading it on release date lol.

nope,top 10 on steam still till this day.

 

[Radec]

3.5 mlre days to go folks.

 

[jmizzal]

Nice will get on WiiU

 

[Spookie]

Curious to see how this lines up against Dota 2 stat wise and if it will take over on steam.

 

[Jarmel]

First Batch of all games will have nuketown dlc code inside the box.

As long as it's never mandatory.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Nope. Not in EU atleast.

How so? The BO2 website says all launch copies get Nuketown 2025 and access to the Doible XP weekend.

 

[Xater]

How so? The BO2 website says all launch copies get Nuketown 2025 and access to the Doible XP weekend.

The Uk import versions websites are selling here apparently don't have Nuketown. At least they don't mention it like they do for the German or Austrian releases. So I guess there will be versions without it.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Same here, I have hopes they will do a better job than Blops.

I think the server situation is different this time around compared to Blops on PC? Pretty sure Treyarch is running them all so no 24/7 nuketown crouch only crap.

oh really even if you dont preorder?

 

[Raptor]

Yes.

 

[Liquidsnake]

Playing against bots all night sucked. If they stick to Monday Midnight, that will be the lamest thing ever!!!!!!!!!

Well the latest will be Monday AM because it will be midnight in Australia.

What sucks is I can't even play TranZit with friends because of the servers.

 

[BadTaste]

You are quite right lol, I should read more into things I'm buying...

 

[KyleN]

The store where i got it from didnt have any copies that included Nuketown.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Can you access Party Game modes in combat training? Can't believe we still don't know a thing about that playlist.

 

[BearPawB]

I never finished BO single player.
MW3 multiplayer was just aggravating rather than fun.

But for some reason i still WANT this game...Ugh....

 

[Sojgat]

I've played 6 regular missions and 4 strike force ones so far and the regular missions are definitely longer than previous Call of Duties or Calls of Duty xP

Strike Force Missions are about 5-10 minutes long.

How hard does it lean on turret sequences? MW3 just had too many.

 

[EleventhDoctor]

Damn I just used the Create a Class calculator....

 

[Uno Venova]

Yeah I don't know what it is but I hardly follow media hype these days, so I didn't really know about the pick 10 they keep talking about, but the create a class helped me get it quickly and it seems awesome.

Although if it still has 5 class slots that might be too little for all the experimenting I will try.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Damn I just used the Create a Class calculator....

Link?

 

[Stitch]

Just bought the Digital Deluxe Edition with my last money. Stupid hype.

Instant Noodle Soup for the rest of the month yay.

 

[Punkster_NY]

crap.... I ordered from Newegg, I'll probably get it a week after everyone else.

 

[EleventhDoctor]

Link?

Here you go, brother.

PC Players add me on Steam: VintageElise

Need some friends who play CoD.

Wow so you can actually make a class without a secondary weapon?

 

[Deputy Dangle]

Finally pre-ordered on PC.

Now I'm eager to preload as soon as possible!

 

[Makoto]

Gonna roll a class that has no primary/secondary but a load of perks and just use my knife to take someone else's primary.

 

[Omiee]

does the pc version have 360 controller support like black ops 1?

Yes

Is that possible?

 

[Nabs]

Yep. It's supposedly better.

 

[Omiee]

Yes



Is that possible?

Thanks guys, cancelling my ps3 pre order and going for the pc version than.

 

[Makoto]

Is that possible?

If these create-a-class editors are to be believed (AND BELIEVE, I DO), then yes it is.

But seriously speaking: I recall Vahn saying in the Gamespot livestream yesterday that if you didn't have any weapon, a knife would be the only thing that was visible because otherwise you wouldn't have any arms, so I took that as confirmation of the possibility of no primary/secondary.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Yep. It's supposedly better.

WOW, I didn't even realize this had controller support since MW3 didn't. Great news. Now to buy a controller as mine just broke lol

 

[Stallion Free]

Yep. It's supposedly better.

Oh damn, that is a massive improvement over Blops 1 pad support.

I might do my first campaign run with a controller now.

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

Yep. It's supposedly better.

Nice.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Nice.

I just tweeted that guy and asked for some PC screenshots lol.

 

[DoomGyver]

Can someone tell me if they changed Awareness and Dead silence? Does one completely counter the other or is it more 50/50?

Sitrep was broken in MW3.
