A spin off of this thread, do you think COD should have a feature to go into semi, 3 round, and full auto. And yes, I realized the original COD had changeable fire modes

I don't really care, but if they're going for "Added realism" then why the hell not. Burst selection is on many real guns there for a reason after all.

Yes, but in Campaign only.
It would cause so much stress, complaining, and disadvantages in MP that it would get removed or some shit.

Not sure about CoD, because it's really more of a "run around and shoot the crap out of everything" kind of game. Not that it's bad; I actually enjoy it. But I do hope Battlefield 3 brings back changeable fire rates, like Battlefield 2 had. I missed that in Bad Company 2.

I second that. In multiplayer fire modes would cause severe balancing issues. In campaign it would be fun just to experiment with it. Not really a necessary feature, but it would be fun.

Maybe they could create something like you buy fire modes in the same create a class as when you add scopes and underbarrels. And bayonettes maybe...

My main problem with firemodes is that, in CoD at least, tri-burst weapons have been (historically) OP, i.e. MW1's M16 with Stopping Power and MW2's M16 and Famas.

The main reason they may have been removed is because console controllers can't fit too many functions in.

For some guns, Hellz Yeah!

I rarely ever go full auto on my guns anyway... I'm more of a quick, accurate, 3-round-burst kinda guy...

does an Xbox controller have that many buttons? Besides that how hard is it in Call of Duty to just tap the trigger lightly and only shoot two or three rounds?

They could easily assign the fire modes to the D-pad, so I think it would be reasonable. And as most said, not in multiplayer
