I just got CoD3 for the XB360 console not too long ago. I have to say that the game is simply fun. Its nothing really all that new, same CoD style, and of course, its a WWII shooter. But the game makes one big improvement, its multiplayer. Now many reviews on the web do mention that the multiplayer aspect of CoD3 is much better than that of CoD2. (i cannot place a valid opinion on this matter for i haven't played CoD2 to make a fair comparison).
Now the multiplayer portion of the game is where its at. The best mode in my opinion by far is the "war" mode. This is kind of like BF2 conquest mode, where you have to obtain and hold positions on the field. What i really like about the multiplayer though, is the kits you can use. There is the Rifleman, Light assault, Heavy Assault, Medic, Scout, Support, and Anti-Army. All of these kits have their own set of weapons specific to that kit(obviously), for example, the Support Gunner has a 30 cal. machinegun(when playing as American) and the Medic carries a Trenchgun(aka shotgun). Each kit also has it own abilities. The abilities are listed below:
Rifleman: Rifle-grenades
Light Assault: Anti-personnel mine
Heavy Assault: Anti-personnel mine
Medic: medical shot (to revive downed allies)
Scout: Artillery Strike
Support: Spare Ammo
Anti-Armor: Spare Ammo
I also discovered my first glitch while playing online. I was riding on a Motor-bike and i stopped next to a building (i was playing on the "Eder Dam" map) with my character next to the building wall. When i went to dismount off my bike, my character went through the wall and i was walking "in" the building. I have only tried ths on Eder Dam, so i'm not sure if this works on every map.
NOTE: I advise not to use this glitch online, for it is considered cheating, and you will be booted from the game.
PS- Can't wait for CoD4, its suppose to be a Modern Day shooter!!!! YAY, no more WWII!!!!!
Insider reveals Xbox's Perfect Dark reboot struggles in development, far from ready despite ongoing efforts.
The hits just keep on coming. Will not be surprised if this gets canned. It already got rebooted and they had to bring on an outside studio to try and help developement. Some of the original creatives have left the project.
But I will say, just wait until the MS showcase. If you don't see it there, then alarm bells should start ringing.
Only a day ago, Helldivers 2 community manager Spitzerfx seemed to be in the clear, but they have officially been demoted after Sony controversy.
From a business standpoint I can understand why they did that…but man, he stood up for the community and thats huge.
He did! There is an entire Reddit thread now where many are thanking him for his help in Sony controversy. Hope he lands on his feet!
Title "seemingly fired after controversy"
Preview text "he seems to be in the clear but demoted"
He did an amazing job and I hope he lands somewhere good too. He's a hero someone who cared about gamers.
Standing up for his own company from a bigger company then gets demoted for doing his job as a community manager. At least he's still employed.
I hope Sony doesn't buy Arrowhead. They need to let them be. No corporate medlings and docking someone's pay for standing up form the ppl.
Wtf is going on with these companies?
EA has announced it will engage in a shareholder-pleasing share buyback program just a couple of months after mass layoffs at the studio.
Well, anything to make those shareholders happy, I guess. They're all that matters in this industry nowadays.
