its happening the next time BF and COD are released I would expect an even playing field from a selling point of view.

farhad2k84493d ago

Honestly?!
If you remember, CoD sold insanely on launch, therefore, many people bought the game on day 1.
I'm sorry but, CoD is just a world wide selling BEAST. I'm not a fan of it, but at least us gamers are no longer alone, and different people are starting to game as we speak, which is great for the gaming community.

bought mw3 a couple of weeks after it came out I played a total of 5 games and haven't played it since. the game may have sold a shit load of copies but it doesn't change the fact that gameplay is total f**king garbage. it's the worst COD ever produced IMO.

Corepred44492d ago

lol pc you must suck at it.

Rainstorm814492d ago (Edited 4492d ago )

Or CorePred

its indeed....the.....Worst....CoD ......EVER!!!!!

(too close)

Asgaro4492d ago

@ pc_masterrace
Why did you buy it? What you are saying, I saw coming from MILES away.

Seriously, so many people that still buy Cod games and afterwards be mad about it.
It's your own stupid fault, man.

thePatriot4492d ago

I was told when pc gamer says the word buy he actually means pirate.

I just hope DICE doesn't sink to CoD's level just to get more sales. Just the other day I heard a guy in my BF3 squad say "I just wish this game had killstreaks". The string of obscenities that emerged from my mouth after that would make the Devil cry...

gunnerforlife4492d ago

the devil is already crying because oh whats happened to dante lool

Cod sales kicked ass, but on a long run bf3 will win...

Ninjamonkey824493d ago

Many brought COD blindly without thinking went on past judgement and past experence. Shame really. Im not gonna say cod mw3 isn't a good hour are twos fun still for there is still something there. But overall as a game tht requires skill thats a thing of the past.

The only remenents that remains is in the barebones gametypes where people can't win a game by sitting on there ass in a corner with there chopper gunner in the air killing for them.

For me CoD lost its way from Cod4 public servers where sinful only save for me was clanplay esl and clanbase.
back in cod1 and two you needed to reach that 100 kills in the pub servers with your weapons grenades.

That took some skill esp if you aproached it with your bar Mp44 K98k Moslin are whatever. But to say even that Cod1 you will still get the odd shout of Thompson noob this and that.

I knew players that where high skilled with even the tommy they knew how to use it well and proper they knew there was two fire rates on it single and auto.

This also follow to the Bar and mp44 and mp40. CoD2 lackedthis feature but funny enough this was the first console port ey.

As the game has been on its been sallyed down and less and less skill is required anyone can pick it up and for me thats the wrong dirrection to be going. There should be challenge in playing not just offered from those you play. But in the learning on the weapons you use and master.

It hads long term appeal to a game but then again Activision don't want that they want you onto there next game each year so the current format suits. Im a long term Cod player. Ive been part of a large community for a long time now seen 2004 and all we have done is play COD.

But lately ive been pulled by BF3 on pc its offering up what Cod just aint anymore. Yeah it has Things in the air etc. But everything there is able to be countered fairly.

It aint AI controlled random targeted and it depends on the skill of those that use the things. Much can be said the same as for tose on the ground. Gun on gun play is stunning sound is amazing plays a massive part in the game the perks in Cod has destoryed that for me atm.

Cod1 i used my eax sound to hear people from all directons was able to give shouts in scrims due to sound that helped the team. That cant be said in CODmw3.

Promod helped in Cod4 bigstyle thats why i liked it in clanplay. I don't know but i feel the more the years go on the worse the game gets. This year it was £90 with elite i paid that for my ps3 version. I paid for it on PC aswell on steam thats a further £35 no sign of elite there yet.

Heres what annoys me slightly when it comes to a subcribed service such as elite. Surely there should be no difference in release dates of maps etc on ps3 as to that on 360, and as for PC if i gets Elite there aswell there should be no difference there aswell. Though in all honesty id prefer mod tools there.

I think Activision truthly has alot to anwser for ver the last few years for mistreatment of there costumer base. It never stops them asking you to have to dig deeper into your pocket for a lesser version of a game.

So i think its about time they start bucking up there ideas about what people are going to accept.

Hufandpuf4492d ago

Next time, try before you buy. It makes no sense to put that much money into a game and get nothing in return.

bananaheadd4493d ago

CoD:MW3 is better than BF3..no joke!!
idc about fifa12 yes everyone love football

Hicken4492d ago

You say no joke, but that first line was hilarious.

Corepred44492d ago

FIFA 12 rapes both. Love that game even though it does make me rage sometimes! lmao

Call of Duty Players Disappointed by $80 B.E.A.S.T. Glove Bundle Deal

Recently, players of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone were met with a new bundle featuring the B.E.A.S.T. Glove, inspired by King Kong's armament in the Godzilla x Kong movie. However, the $80 price tag attached to this themed accessory left many Call of Duty fans feeling underwhelmed.

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

melons17d ago

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.

Gridknac17d ago

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-2315d 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.

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

Christopher31d 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_vulgaris31d 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”.

OtterX31d ago (Edited 31d 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.

Palitera30d ago

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

fsfsxii30d ago

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

crazyCoconuts30d 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

OtterX30d 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

Knightofelemia31d ago (Edited 31d ago )

Cheech just looks so wrong in the picture.

Profchaos31d ago

Why just why. cod up in smoke

anast31d ago

They charge too much for a game that is kitsch.

MW3 missed its easiest opportunity to give us some of the best Call of Duty maps ever made

From Bootleg to Black Box, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 made a heartbreaking mistake by not remastering the bizarrely forgotten maps from its namesake.
