Poll: What's your opinion on Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer?

[Weealzabob]

As Modern Warfare 3 has been out for a little over a month, and the community will now be familiar with all of the games little intricacies. I wanted to know how people felt about the game.




I think that the game is flawed to say least. The balance is all over the place. I find the visuals make it difficult for me to identify enemies. And Elite has made the players who track their Kill Death ratio ten times as bad for not participating in objective based modes. It's decent enough, but I don't I'll think play much of it besides piggy backing with the splitscreen online.

I'll be honest, I've only played a couple of CoD games, and not very thoroughly. I also haven't played MW3. But from what I've seen and heard, both online and in real life, it's pretty much the exact same thing as the last one and the one before it, with very little added in both single and multiplayer.
Some guys in my IT class were looking up stuff about it online a couple of days before its release, and what I gained from listening to them talking about the multiplayer is that there's a few new guns (which aren't much different to any of the old guns) and some new perk things for kill streaks or point streaks or whatever. Plus the new maps obviously

You'd think that if you repackage the same game several years in a row, you'd be able to balance the thing properly.


But that would require effort.

Original!

On topic. I think people are hard to see at times, you die way to quickly, quick scoping is rampant on consoles and IW HATE shotguns.

The shotguns were only useful after grinding it to max level to get damage and extended mags (ext mags made the shotgun shoot more pellets per shot), they have now taken the extra pellets out, which basically means more hit markers.

I dare anybody to play with a naked shotgun and not be saying "why are they nerfing these!"

I enjoy CoD as much as the next guy, but the devs can't balance the thing worth shit.

I still keep getting flashbacks to MW2 and the UMP that can 3 shot kill anyone at any range, even with a silencer.

M,m,m, monster shit,it,it,it.

To be honest I hate it, ive played it a fair bit in a friends house and I dont like it.

Yes yes I have the usual gripes, lag is bad and it seems like im a second behind in the game, campers ruin everything but I know people are very overly sensitive on this site about it so thats all I shall say.

The maps are crap, either theyre too big and takes ages to.find someone, or theyre too small so I keep getting spawn killed.

The killstreaks killed mw2 for me, 20 odd vehicles in the sky making it hard to move. Coupled with people who do some extreme camping for killstreaks is bullshit.

I know this sounds weird, but I actually prefer black ops over this.

I actually think it's the most fun CoD game. The good thing about this is that any gun can beat any gun and every gun has one flaw. Even with the so called OP ones like the pp90 and type 95, the first is crap at long range and the second it a burst weapon so close quarters is out of the question. For an average player like me, the support killstreaks are amazing. They finally give noobs something to be proud of, whilst helping the team. I haven't experienced any lag yet and the problems of mw2 have mostly been fixed. Noobtubes are not around anymore, and killstreaks are easier to avoid than ever due to the amount of buildings in each map.

My only gripe is the fact that gold guns take too bloody long to unlock. You get to lvl 30 easily, but then it makes you get 100000 XP!

I've played at least 1 hour of online multiplayer of all the other CoD games. This time I played one match and haven't touched it since.
