We shouldnt have these problems in the first place.
If there are bugs/glitches before release then delay the
game until they are fixed.
Shouldnt be having connection problems after the
crap PS3 owners put up with on black ops i honestly
thought MW3 would of sorted that out by now.

Noticeably_FAT4575d ago

Boo hoo, seriously, every game has post launch issues, did you complain about all the BF3 issues? or is it simply because this is COD?

Call off the hounds people.

jaosobno4574d ago

And it is because of people like you we keep getting bugged games. People that are simply ok with buggy products because "every game has post launch issues".

We paid for this stuff, and we should get a fully working product! And no, this has nothing to do with BF3, but it has everything to do with basic decency which most developers and publishers seem to lack these days.

Noticeably_FAT4574d ago

@jaosobno
Every game has issues, that's why we have patches, even your favorite PS3 exclusives have bugs, the only reason people are flipping out is because it's COD. Get over it.

HarryMasonHerpderp4574d ago (Edited 4574d ago )

What do you mean boo hoo?
people work hard to earn their money.
The game costs £40 to buy im sick of oh its okay
because it will get patched.
Thats just not good enough especially
since not everyone is connected to the internet.
What do those guys get for their £40?
a broken game that cant be repaired.
Who brought up battlefield except for you?
this is a problem with alot of games this gen.
Its not just a COD thing .For example skyrim,such an amazing game but wow its so broken first 5 minutes of playing it i had people walking backwards and opening doors i shouldnt be able to enter yet and then the game just froze,its great that theres going to be a patch but it shouldnt of been released so buggy.
I just dont understand why they dont release the games until they have been properly tested.
It just comes down to lazyness and money.

GraveLord4574d ago

WE are not having these issues. Maybe YOU are but WE, the majority, aren't. All these "framerate and freezing" issues have never happened to me. Am I that lucky? Not having any of these connection problems you're mentioning either. Man, you're really unlucky.

My PS3 internet browser on the on the other hand....crashes my PS3.

Codeman4204575d ago

Pretty sad that they still have a broken spawn system through 4 games now. Just go back to the COD4 spawn system and be done with it. that one worked the best and whoever decided to change it should be fired if they havent been already.

kevnb4575d ago (Edited 4575d ago )

its typical this gen, microsoft lowered the standards and sony has to go along with it. Not to mention virtually every ps3 game is just a lousy port.

Codeman4204575d ago

Agree and disagree at the same time. Yes it is now the standard to patch games after they are relased even if the problems are known. but If the game devs have any love for their game they would fix these issues before they release. yes patch after if something comes up that isnt known like glitches and stuff like that but if the issue is known fix the game before you ship it.

kevnb4575d ago

most these issues never get fixed, same thing happens on 360.

BattleAxe4574d ago

I'm playing Uncharted 3 right now.....doesn't look like Sony has gone along with it.

drsnobby4575d ago

How has MS lowered standards and what does that have to do with the freeze issues for the PS3.

kevnb4575d ago

theres a ton of issues with 360 games, they really lowered the requirements and sony cant do anything about it. Only thing sony can control is first party games.

Solidus187-SCMilk4575d ago (Edited 4574d ago )

considering that the PS3 versions of games constantly have more issues than their 360 counterparts, I think you should complain to sony and not MS.

TheDareDevil4575d ago

Why has microsoft "lowered the standards" this gen?

Codeman4204575d ago

He more or less talking about patching after the games release since MS started the whole thing Sony has followed suite because a game dev isnt going to fix one consoles issues ship it fixed while shipping another broken and patching it later. its cost efficient to ship all versions broke then patch later, which was started by MS.

testerg354575d ago

Weird considering PS3 exclusives get patches.

Codeman4204575d ago

as do MS exclusives, they few that they have. it started with MS and SOny followed suite not saying sony is the good guy here as they are at fault as well. BUt, it started with MS

Solidus187-SCMilk4575d ago (Edited 4574d ago )

yeah Xbox invented patches.....ahahhahahaha. Oh wait PCs have had patches for years before xbox 1 even existed.

His point is moronic considering that the ps3 versions of games constantly have more issues than the 360 versions and these are games made by third party devs, it has nothing to do with MS.

Maybe all these games getting patches has to do with the fact that these consoles are more like PCs than ever, most people have their console hooked up to the internet, and this gen we are seeing ALOT more PC games coming to consoles.

but blame MS when the PS3 versions of games are constantly more broken then their 360 counterparts. HAHAAHHHAHAHAAH

Yeah, Microsoft invented patches and its their fault that bethesda, IW and a bunch of other devs cant program for the PS3....

@codeman,last gen there were no patches for games if they were broken then tough,however this generationg MS allows devs to patch games online,how is that a bad thing and how is that lowering standards?

_Aarix_4575d ago

Yea, if the developers decide to release a game with bugs then that's their fault.

SephirothX214575d ago

Its CoD though. Its just one giant bug.

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.

X-2347d ago

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.
