That's one of the worst spelling fuckups I've ever seen on the Internet. Holy shit!BackwardsSuggestions said:
Also, sniper rifles are ridiculously overpowered. What a load of rubbish they are. Fucking balance that shit IW, the auto-aim and massive hit boxes makes them easy mode guns.
Why is IW insistent on undoing all the good work Treyarch implemented? IW are the fucking B team now, without question, and that's looking past the fact they should have been considered B team after MW2.

Are people really having trouble with the Type 95? I used it for a while myself, but I didn't think it was over-powered or anything. (I ended up switching to the SCAR)
I always thought burst weapons were balanced by nature, because if you can manage to dodge at least part of the first burst, you can respond with your own flurry of bullets by just holding down the trigger while they have to click it again. (assuming you're using a fully-automatic weapon)

1887 is also pretty damn awesome with steady aim. My current MW2 Spas replacement.

That feeling when your enemy uses a stealth bomber and you're the only one who dies...FUUUU
Anyone else figure out how many times they're gonna prestige?
Before the game came out I was thinking of going to 10, but now I'm kinda contemplating just prestiging once and then going for the camos and stuff.
You answered your own question.

I guess everyone here has seen those weird gamertag/clan tags with the direction and button icons?

Actually I'm playing with my brother and some of his friends right now and two of them have them in their tags.Lionheart1827 said:
Apparently it's not a hack, you just use an accented "a" and some other letter or something.
Just finished up with everything today and returned it, due to a test and work scheduled, didn't post the mid-game impressions.
SP: Its really just isn't good. They come up with many grand scenarios, but funnel you down into a 10x10 room. Every scene plays out like a shooting gallery. AI have the very basic, pop out of cover to shot, and down when you look at them. Clear the lot or a few waves of them and move on to the next one. Maybe they'll throw a novelty item for you or a scripted event. Its very bare bones and definitely feels like a second priority to MP, much of it being a rehash from what I remember of MW1.
The new AI with less infinite spawns and no grenade spam, even though they still put you down in 3 shots top, with many 1 shot kills from blind spots. It wasn't really frustrating at all till the final level. Improvement I guess.
MP: Very much the same mentality for it. Played about 2 hours of it, I think I was 1:1 for both W/L and K/D. It was basically the same thing as COD4. They did look to increase the amount of unlocks to ridiculous levels and after the 2nd hour, it just wasn't for me. Area is too small, guns are too powerful, too many perks and unlocks throwing off balance, too many killstreaks, etc. Can't put a complaint against it you haven't heard a dozen times before. I still see the appeal too it. Lots of carrots on sticks and such a low skill bar level, its very accessible to all gamers.
Pretty melancholy over playing it.

Support package is best thing they put in the game. I usually can get a stealth bomber halfway through the game just by being an aggressive player.

Think if I continue prestiging then I'll use my unlock gear token on claymores. They're like my staple in the past two CODs and I hated leveling up to get them this time around.Noriega said:

Pretty cool that you can wipe your stats at 10th prestige. Very cool!

Groundwar is my main place to be. Don't rush to the next base on domination or to a dogtag in Kill Confirmed. Enemies will be waiting for you for the pickup. Don't reload after a kill. I got killed tons of times because of that.

I love how scavenger pro gives you more ammo to start even though the whole point in running scavenger is to pick up blue bags for ammo refills. Instead of refilling tactical and lethal grenades they give you more ammo to start. Lol. Wow.

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
I think I've changed my mind about the air drop trap. For a while it seemed like people weren't falling for it, but it's gotten me a kill every time I've used it recently. Last match it got me a double kill. :lol
RJNavarrete said:
That's why its best to put it as the last perk in the specialists points streaks. By the time you kill 5 guys you will need ammo. I always disliked killstreaks, it's nice to see that I can still be rewarded for my play in other ways. When you get the specialist bonus you seriously feel like rambo, everything is so fast, running, aiming, reloading, everything. It's awesome.
I've gotten used to the maps, I like a lot of them now. Just gotta stick to interiors and hallways and I can hold my own with my class.
Also Kill Confirmed is the best thing ever. I always avoided TDM cause of the insane camping. With KC there's very little camping, if any at all. Really fun luring people into tags
Seriously this.eek5 said:nope
Also I hate how they moved all your weapon statistics to elite and you can't even access it. I wonder why they didn't revamp the UI with elite's UI style and just integrate it in.
:/
The MW3 UI is good I guess, but the Elite UI is AWESOME. They should have completely integrated Elite inside MW3 and every other COD coming from now on.

I like how when you go into challenges it lets you know if you get an title/emblem for the next progress reward.
Graphically the game looks awful. I'm playing on PS3 and it this engine has got to go. I know it's not because the game continually sells by the boatload, but this is atrocious.
Whoever said this was a gen ahead of Black Ops or some other hyperbole comment needs to be slapped in the head.

Indeed, if your next challenge reward has a title or emblem in it, a little locked square will be under it.
Iv been playing the past few days and im loving it. Most of my friends can't take the series anymore and says it frustrates them or their tired of it due to kids online/glitchers. Uncharted 3 MP is their friend now. Im just having a blast and playing with GAF members is just great we don't really lose a match at all. Please if anyone here is from the east coast add me on 360 GT is Matts Legacy and just leave me a message saying your from GAF cause I need some players in the day time on the east cost lol

Well I got pretty good at using them in MW2, since I almost exclusively played S&D after unlocking them.Noriega said:
I guess I like how if you're actually strategic with them they can be super useful.
[side note]I'm playing MW3 right now with GAF open on my laptop and...the power went out! I almost had a heart attack as my 360 powered down.
