9 early Modern Warfare 3 videos show AC-130s, snipers and Spec Ops

SystemLink: "With Modern Warfare 3 smacking you right in the eyeballs in 3 days, some lucky early owners have taken to YouTube to upload their gameplay highlights, which usually include getting a whole bunch of sniper rifle kills in a row. Something call 'quick scoping' - it must be a new fad..."

They won't even change the way the AC 130 looks. Guns sound like toys, Sniper rifles are so easy to use my father was using and getting kills with it in 25 min of playing (though with ACOG).

People say MW 2.5? More like 2.1. Was trying to like it, but it feels old within an hour of playing. Nearly every lobby is filled with Quickscopers looking for their 360 no scope double y ladder jump shot. Sad state.

Edit

Disagree all you want. It's the same game you've been playing for the past 2 years. New perks, Prestige shop, and some other little stuff makes this a polished up turd. I'm giving my copy to my brother.

I understand your feelings, but why do you, and so many other people of the community, take it so personally? I like realistic shooters as well, but what's wrong in a little fun? If your dad was getting kills within 25 minutes, isn't it good that the game lets many people enter the video gaming environment? I may or may not be getting MW3, as I'm currently undecided, but I see nothing wrong with a game that lets you jump in on the action quickly and keep you there rather than making you frustrated with extremely high respawn waiting times.

Avernus4574d ago

Yip...until you run into a full party of snipers. You run up on one of them with an SMG, and they quickscope your ass. Sounds fun indeed. If you want that, hey feel free.

I'm not bashing anyone who gets it. You'll do that to yourself within a week.

Takoulya4574d ago

Trust me, I'm had terrible run ins with CoD games, buying WaW and Black Ops, but the hate on it is quite exaggerated, although not entirely undeserved. When you run into a full party of snipers, just leave. That's the magic of the CoD playerbase. Your in another game in 20 seconds flat.

jdktech20104574d ago

Exactly....this is the one game where I don't care about winning percentage (because no one else does) and I have no qualms about leaving any game at any time if frustration sets in.....

Furesis4574d ago

60 euros is alot of money for game that doesn't add alot atleast lower the price like 30 or less isn't that what street fighter did

Xenial4574d ago (Edited 4574d ago )

I was thinking if i should pick up this or BF3 on Friday because that's when Skyrim comes out and i wanted my dose of FPS. I decided on BF3. Im disappointed in what i've seen of MW3 so far.

Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash

Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.

They call that a crack head! Thats what this is really about, its an addiction. People who dont smoke cigarettes look and laugh at the addicts that spend $8-$10 a pack, but they cant help themselves, they are addicted. That same analogy applies perfectly to the whole MT industry. Only an addict that was not thinking clearly would spend this kind of money on something so frivolous. A round of multiplayer provides the same high a person gets from scratching a lotto ticket, or putting money on a sports bet. MT in general need to really be regulated because you have a generation of kids becoming adults who grew up only knowing the MT era of gaming. Its normal to them and they will in turn teach their kids the same by just being a gaming parent and getting their kids involved with them in gaming. Thats why no matter how ridiculous the headlines keep getting out of the MT industry, it never seems to fade or go away.

I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.

Cheech And Chong Are Coming To Call Of Duty Because Everything Must Be Consumed

The famous comedy duo is the latest example of pop culture becoming one big grey blob

Christopher48d ago

Certain to have some sort of reference to their online store for CBD/THC chews, which is advertising heavily online the last month or two.

Sciurus_vulgaris48d ago

The randomness of the multiplayer characters is one of reason I quit playing COD after briefly returning in 2022. We got Space Marines, rappers, tree monsters etc. all in a series called “ Modern Warfare”.

OtterX47d ago (Edited 47d ago )

I think if there was ever a time for a competitor to rise up and take away some of Call of Duty's thunder, the time would be now. A military shooter that takes itself seriously, not sold out to Fortnitism. Easier said than done, I know... but the time is ripe.

I can't stand this stuff either.

Palitera47d ago

There are tons of MP shooters that make no profit, if you're looking for one of those

fsfsxii47d ago

You guys have been saying this shit since 2009. Fortunately, nobody’s bringing down cod anytime soon, if ever.

crazyCoconuts47d ago

I agree. I really didn't like how the silliness takes away the gritty origins. That and all the crazy effects... dunno. I'm still playing it but I'd love for someone to steal their cheese and cater to grittier players

OtterX47d ago

@fsfsxii It's not so much wanting COD itself to die as it is wanting this silliness to die. Like CrazyCoconuts said, it takes from the grittiness. Many OG COD players want a straightup Military shooter experience, not silly costume time at Carnival.

is this what the kids want these days a pair of iconic stoners who were big in the 70s and have kind of held on I enjoyed their movies decades ago but I never recall the movie where cheech infiltrates a enemy base while chong snipes for support guess I must of missed that one

Man I'm getting to old for this

Knightofelemia47d ago (Edited 47d ago )

Cheech just looks so wrong in the picture.

Profchaos47d ago

Why just why. cod up in smoke

anast47d ago

They charge too much for a game that is kitsch.
