Modern Warfare 3

I think there's too much gameplay footage.

And I hate how the calibres don't count for anything in the way of actual stopping power.

And how you can take a shot to the chest with a high powered sniper rifle and not walk away, but RUN.

Ridiculous. I'm going back to BF2 and ArmA.

Same can happen on both BF2 and ArmA tbf

Love those games you should try the project reality mod for BF2. or ACE mod for ArmA 2

 

[Cerbo Knight]

Yeah my bad, I totally forgot the vanilla games aren't as good without mods...

I do run PR and I'm thinking about trying ACE out too

But lets be honest, who goes for body shots in ArmA?

 

[Matt!]

Havent tried the ACE mod myself but have a friend who plays regularly and he recommends a squad to play with, makes the experience 100 times better as the mod is involved around teamplay same as PR.

 

[Cerbo Knight]

That sounds pretty good. I just need to get a new headset right now, my one is long past it's expiry date

 

[Matt!]

Had to purchase a new one recently, i know your pain

 

[Cerbo Knight]

What one did you buy out of interest?

I'm looking at a few, but I'm after stuff like 5.1 surround + mic and it's really racking up the price. £90+ on a head set... damn.

But I keep mine for years, so I think it's probably worth it

 

[Matt!]

Try the creative fatality series if your on a budget if not then the sennheiser PC350 or anything Razer

 

[Cerbo Knight]

Thanks for that, I'll check them out tomorrow when I don't think I'll impulse buy using my Scar money

The plot looks...erm....
Russia invades Germany. America and Germany fight a defencive battle in Berlin

Russia invades France. Apparently the dev team forget that French people play CoD, and they might want to play as their own armed forces, since the only player involvement in France is as Delta FArce

Russia sponspors a terrorist attack on London. You play as the SAS. Gaz/Ghost's voice actor returns as another SAS character (although I think he's a helicopter crewmember rather than super-SAS-man)

Russia continues attacking America. You're in NYC.

There's also stuff in Prague.

It looks interesting. The magnifiers thing looks good. But, I prefer the look of BF3

And why do all the M4 mags have 20 rounds?!

BF3 first. Then MW3.

Epic Mother Russia

You can tell this is going to be the most unrealistic CoD to date, because the French haven't surrendered.

does anyone know if you get to play as Price and soap ect. because they left the last game at a bit of a cliff hanger

Spoiler

The released stuff said no, but they are alive. You play as some hired merc protecting them. Quite frankly I think this a stupid idea - a new character in the series - doesn't have the same impact as the two characters we all know and enjoy. As for the emphasis on Delta fArce - I'm sorry, this just makes the game look like mEHdal of honour on speed... Way to ruin the game activision!

 

[Cerbo Knight]

Dammit Delta, you always ruin it

First Osama, now CoD.

 

[Nickona]

thats really dissapointing they were so badass!!!!

I can't tell if you're being sarcky or not, so to cover myself, I'll explain my reasoning:

To me, CoD has always been the SAS doing all the dirty stuff, but lots of it, whilst the Americans take the big obvious part of the stage, and play the role of the hammer rather than the chisel. No-one takes a side role, everyone is important.

With this, it seems pretty much like the SAS have bene sidelined, and Activision have seen "Medal of Honour was good" so decided to nick one of the factions (rather than writers)

 

[Cerbo Knight]

Wasn't being sarcastic at all

I was saying that the SAS were 20 minutes away from Osama (back in... 2002 I believe?) and the Americans insisted that they 'get the kill' so they forced us to wait around for 6 hours for Delta to arrive, by which time Osama buggered off out of his back door.

And now they've done the exact same thing with CoD.

Thanks Delta. Thanks a lot.
