i'm genuinely curious about this title. I absolutely hated COD:MW2 and hearing how great the original COD4:MW was, I feel I may have a very bad bias on this series.
So when you get the game, can you give any details on balance and online features (particularly with PC version).
Key things of why i hated MW2 and want to hear if they were fixed in this:
- Knife was absurdly OP (even without perks). Being a 1 hit kill, with huge range and no delay when sprinting meant that if you kept close to the walls there was literally no counter (and no shotgun does not counter since it delays)
- N00b tube could be spammed infinitely with OMA and in general had WAY too much lethal splash range
- Randon kill streaks awards from drops
- Bad hitboxes
- Hackers, no lobbies, no option to select room, no option to report.
- lag.
I want to not hate this series and being in another companies hands maybe I can give it a better shot and maybe override my loathing for MW2.
Noob tube with OMA was a pain, but pretty easy to beat...
Random killstreaks only happened with Care Package? Which is how it should be dont see a problem there.
The hitboxes were fine...
hackers will always be around, you want to select your room start your own game.
Report by hitting Report when you click on their profile...
Lag will always be around...
My theory is you just werent that good at MW2... Black ops unless you step it up wont be any different ;) MW2 is a cakewalk compared to any fighting games.
I'll get black ops just because all of the call of dutys have been good so this one will be too. I played with hackers, laggers, and noob tubers and they still get easily raped.
Another thing that will help IFB play with 2 or 3 other people that actually know what they are doing... The lag on COD compared to Soul Cal is laughable...
The hackers do piss me off, but people will always cheat because they have no skills... and for some reason they want to impress everyone with their pretty little icon by their name lol when in reality if you have the gold skull in COD most just make fun of you...
Shooters EASY Fighters SKILL - If you arent good at COD no matter, lag hackers weapons killstreaks lol then just give up gaming...
The knife ummm is easy to beat... Running by a wall saves you? lol I duno where you got that theory but the SPAS beats knife everytime... even with lag...
