Haha, yes yeah I agree with you. I mean, it's been a good game for years but I also agree that it takes more than what they are saying to make a game that is worth buying. Basically this game is going to have to be gold quality for me to ever consider buying a copy from one of my most hated game publishers. Even then I'll buy it used just to screw them over as much as I possibly can. I'm a jerk, i know.Frostbite3789 said:This exact mode was in MW2. Down to the it being campaign missions, but co-op style. The horde mode thing has already been done in almost every other FPS series so far. Why not CoD?jpoon said:I'll be damned, some good news actually comes out of the MW3 front. I had pegged this game for a multi-player only fragfest that I would normally never play but if there is a decent co-op to the game I might actually buy this...used.
Of course I'll wait to hear about it in the reviews first, I definitely don't believe the hype.
Why are they acting like every minimal thing they do is groundbreaking? 60 FRAMES PER SECOND ON A TEN YEAR OLD ENGINE?! OH GOD, GAME OF THE YEAR!

Here's what the box art looks like
The one thing I like about this article is that it proves how stupid Infinity Ward is.
It's ripping on Call of Duty for not being enough of a direct port of the last Call of Duty game. But the thing they didn't realize is that it was pretty much a port of the CoD game that happened before that one.
OT: I fucking hate zombies and probably wont buy MW3 because I will be too busy playing other games. So mehhh.
STOP BUYING WHAT YOU ALREADY OWN 4 OF BAAAAAWWWWW!
I realize that I don't have the capacity to travel through time. that's why I used the word "seems" in my post instead of "is"[HEADING=1]Thats a fucking retarded statement[/HEADING] and you know it. The game isnt even out yet. Have you traveled in time to play a new COD game? No? Then sit down and stop crying about it. You could at least wait until the game is out, maybe then someone other than you will give a small fuck.Mikeyfell said:Sequels usually add something new.

How crazy is that? Games in the same series, even the same trilogy, sharing features? This must be unprecedented!
That's odd, you obviously see me as some sort of posh elitist and yet you don't jump strait to Half Life 2 as my favorite FPS game?I would love to hear what your favourite FPS are. Battlefield? Yeah, Bad Company is just THAT different to previous games in the series, right? Quake esque games? Like, you know, the ones that had the whole genre grind to a halt with no innovation to be found, kind of like what we are experiencing now?

This game is going to be great, can't wait to play the campaign most of all though
Knowing my friend and I, we'll have a blast with this even if it's only just as good as MW2's Spec Ops.
Definitely looking forward to this.
Gonna be honest with you, mate. Based on that list I don't think the whole "military shooter" genre is for you and ever will be.Mikeyfell said:Well Left 4 Dead is my favorite FPS
Then (You guessed it) Half Life 2
If Fallout 3 counts as an FPS that would make the list.
Portal if it counts (I know there aren't bullets but what ever)
Games that have enough depth to keep me interested in the shooting
Mikeyfell said:It's phenomenal, it's this brand new thing called Spec Ops. And it's totally not just a shameless rehash or what we did in Modern Warfare 2.
You sure do pay a lot of attention.Logan Westbrook said:This time, however, there is also a survival mode where the player fights wave after wave of enemy soldiers on game's multiplayer maps.

But also based on that list, L4D2 isn't really all that much more "innovative" than L4D. New Vegas is practically an expansion pack for FO3. Portal isn't even a shooter, and Portal 2 is more of the same only with shinier graphics, something you've already slagged the MW series for.
Seems a bit hypocritical to rag on CoD given those sequels.
You need to calm down. You're acting like some dude just ran up to you and took a shit on your chest. You know why people prematurely judge CoD? It's because the last three games have been the same thing, and that's a fact. People don't want other people to buy CoD because it has a negative influence on other games.SmashLovesTitanQuest said:Why do you care? Its my money and I will spend it on what I enjoy.

No, but did you visit update posts about L4D2 and New Vegas and Portal 2 to harp on their lack of innovation and ridicule anyone who wanted to buy them? If not, that's my point - it's hypocritical to do it with MW. If you do, well then it's not, but you must kill at parties.Mikeyfell said:First things first. Read the list again do you see L4D2 on the list? Do you see New Vegas on the list? if you do consult a optometrist.
Yeah but as I've already pointed out, game franchises with sequels that aren't terribly innovative aren't the sole purview of the military shooter genre.Mikeyfell said:It's the on-rails-esque cover based games with no personality or creativity that I don't like. They just all happen to be military shooters. If MW 3 had some spark of life in it. They could open up the maps a little or maybe put in a story that isn't predictable and dull. Hell even make your squad mates anything other than bullshit stereotypes. It could be decent

Haha, just kidding. Its all good. At the end of the day, who cares, its an internet forum.

Kill cams originate from Halo? Wow, wow, wow, back up son. I have played a whole lot of Halo. And I am pretty damn sure COD did them before Bungie even thought about it. In fact, I believe that to date there is not a single Halo game that featured killcams.
Now son, time for this whole Battlefield thing. Bad Company had a campaign, you say. Fair enough, I say. But son. Look here. Nobody gives a fuck about the campaign in Battlefield games, and you know what? Thats a good thing. Because Battlefield multiplayer is just too much damn fun, and they should concentrate on perfecting that. Failing that point, Bad Company added a campaign and Bad Company 2 added... Uhm... A view new weapons and maps? Oh shit! Look at that! Exactly like COD! Who would have thought!
Halo is innovative, eh? Yep, Halo had that one, big, genre defining game on the first xbox, Combat Evolved, and it was fucking awesome. And once that was out, they made 2, 3, ODST and Reach. These games somehow managed to add nothing new to the table and still be worse than the original. Halo invented matchmaking? Fuck that. Microsoft invented matchmaking when they said "You know what would be great? If we had this online service so we could earn an extra 60 bucks off every second customer. We should tell Bungie about it."
Now we can look at the flip side you mentioned. A couple of years ago, a small team of programmers and the likes left a certain studio known for the game Medal Of Honor: Allied Assault. They left because they had there own ideas they wanted to implement into a war game. They went on to make Infinity Ward, a studio that is sadly falling apart ever since they brought out COD 4. Back when they released COD 1, everything about it was fresh. While it didnt bring big new things to the table, the way it presented itself, the breathtaking atmosphere, the fast and intense shooting in the campaign, the feeling of really being in a war was a first, and every bit as innovative as the first Half Life or Halo. The thing is, COD went on to make the same game loads of times. Just like Halo, which got worse and worse with every game. The only game that really grew and blossomed was Half Life.
As for MW3, yep, we have the same game with a couple of new guns and attachments and better lighting. But COD has done its thing. They took a risk with COD4, and it paid off. Back then it was a breath of fresh air in a genre that was filled with space marines. They brought something new to the table and defined games too come twice, thats one more time than any other game series, save maybe Half Life.
Heres the thing; nothing you can say, nothing infinity ward has done justifies this dude barging into an internet forum and berating people on what games they play. His opinion doesnt count for shit, and he should keep it to himself until hes learnt to present them in a non offensive way and realized he isnt anything better because he chooses one grey and brown shooter over the other. Does he have some valid points? Yes. Does that justify the very childish behavior presented by him? Nope. No matter how good your point is, judging people on what game they buy is stupid.
Im out.

People on the Escapist liking CoD is an oddity.
4chan counting to anything without racial slurs is a miracle.
And I ain't a religious man.

Im out.
My mistake on the Kill Cams. though COD didnt invent those.
On Battlefield...your just wrong. The story is a significant part of the game, and while the multiplayer is one of the best in the industry, its only half the game. that's why they MAKE a campaign. And didnt add anything new? bullshit...Destruction 2.0 better multiplayer mechanics, better controls, better AI, better everything. Just because it isn't brand new doesn't mean they didnt innovate, after all build on the good spots for a solid foundation to a great game.
also, the gun mechanics and sound are amazing, COD has been useing the same engine and sounds for a while and all the guns are equally shit.
Halo:
Halo 1- brought shooters to consoles
Halo 2- Regen health and matchmaking
Halo 3- forge, theater, customized characters, and an improved ranking system to the matchmaking
Halo ODST- firefight
Halo REACH- same as 3 and ODST except greatly improved to a mind blowing point.
