Just be careful on that thread. Safety first.

I have a lot of faith that BLOPS 2 will take some of those things such as point streaks and refine/improve them even more.

I think Cerebus is right, there were lots of improvements from BO to MW3, and there are things I like in both games. But you always wonder about what will get left out. Like no Caps and Defends in the Domination scoreboard? Really? We only care about K/D and Assists?

At the end of the day I think we all tend to look back on the BLOPS days with some pretty rose-colored glasses. I remember having plenty of games where the lag was just ridiculous. My overall stats are almost identical on both games which to me just indicates that one game or the other isn't handicapping me or making me some kind of god especially when you factor in how many hours I've played of each.

I wish we could go into the archive and read all the threads about hit detection on BLOPS...

how many times did you die AFTER ducking behind a wall in BLOPS...

I'll go on the record as saying I fucking HATE MWFail, BUT it did introduce good features...point streaks, support (minus stealth bomber), etc. Seems like Treyarch has the balls to acknowledge this (unlike IW) and incorporate popular features into their new game. Not everything has to be reinvented to be an improvement. Subtle tweaks can be enough.

If MWF had more reliable hit detection and lag it would have been playable. Also, would it be so fucking terrible to let average players actually hit MAX prestige? I mean, really...how many of us that have lives really have the fucking man-hours to invest into hitting 20+ prestiges? For an emblem? C'mon man! Set it at 15 and leave it. So what if people hit it early...it doesn't mean you have to penalize the casual players who actually want to try and hit it in a calendar year.

They could reissue Blops minus the knife and second chance and I'd be pretty happy.

BLOPS needed usable secondaries so I dont run around yelling "you WISH you had a makarov" when I run out of ammo

@Audio i did install them both times. Do u think this is my first rodeo? @KJ yup id play MW2 everyday compared to 3. Maps alone are the biggest difference as 2's were awesome and gave you multiple ways to play them and the connections were flat out better and more stable. Best by far of all the CODs ive played. The maps were larger and more open which allowed you to easily avoid the quickscopers and danger close/scavenger pro jerkoffs. Only reason im keeping MW3 is my neighbor told me he's into spec ops now and wants me to play with him sometime and plus my almost 10yr old daughter said she plays it as well. Ill have to see next time she comes down from vermont. To put it best id rather wear a yankee jersey/hat,go to a game at yankee stadium and actually root for them instead of play MW3 multiplayer

yikes. this is serious

That's crazy talk!

I wasn't trying to be smart Nixon, a couple people and myself got caught on that one. And I'm completely open to the idea that the games perform differently based on which console they are inserted into. I'm just thankful that we are all finding ways to cope and keep hanging together, at least until the forum starts to lag.

::sigh::

BTW, I think I jinxed myself, as last night was one of the worst I have endured in MW3...

one game I had to be a minimum of 4 seconds behind everyone (I re-watched the match) on Bakaara... and generally just was lagging all night, had a couple good games once we re-grouped with a new team and called it a night as I never like to go to bed after a bad match...

onward

Derailing Time:

Thanks BF3 Fucktards for letting me get raped last night. I actually enjoyed it I think.

It was a nice change of pace even tho I was clueless on the call outs.Lol

It was good to have you on Joey. I saw the last match you had a rough time. Like any FPS, takes time to learn the maps, learn where B is. In this game it is harder since on different maps different flags are "B" meaning the most strategically important. Also you are playing against guys who have 300+ hours played. Also you are still learning how the recoil effects the way the gun behaves. Lots to learn. You will get it.

The lobby we were in last night was tough. Those guys from DIX clan were good and showed us how to play for sure. Right after you left they did too and we went back to pub stomping noobs.

Hope to see you again soon.

Thus is the curse of MW3. The only prob I had last night was the other team was better. You know how I knew they were better than I was? There was minimal lag. KJ, I agree that MW3 is a better game by far than BO. But the connection.... here is to hoping that BOII takes the good and leaves the bad.

I was serious about us all getting Battlefield : Bad Company 2

Take out the feeling of being overwhelmed in BF3, less focus on vehicles and COMPLETE map destruction (not partial and disappointing BF3 destruction) and you get Bad Company 2.

Plus..Battlefield : Vietnam addon was EPIC (when I was on the 360). You had a radio in the tank and could blare Flight of the Bumblebees while wrecking people. You'd play Conquest and there would be 70's music at the flags as they were in military camps.

When I first jumped on Wini, I had a descent couPle of games with Nixon,Smalls,Ob ,Tunaetc...I like the lag free game. I am just trying to play catch up.Im sure I'll be back on tonight as long as Nixon doesn't call me useless random On the bottom of the board(which I never was on the bottom).Lmfao

You're killing me Smallz........

Couldn't resist. If the wife wouldn't freak about me buying more games, I might have tried BF3. I spend too much on golf and other shit, not to mention the lack of time. MW3 hasn't been that bad to me lately. It seems that maybe once a week I get a server time out message or something stupid like that.

Hell no you held your own just fine for someone who doesnt play that much. The shear size of the maps makes thing tough. They take some time to get used to where everything is. Useless are the fucktards sitting on a hill a mile from the action doing nothing but wasting ammo. To me it was just one of those night to forget. Those guys we ran into i dont think were that awesome more like decent and caught us on an off night. You're always welcome to join us on the BF3 crew. We'll make up for it tonight by tearing the opposition a new hole as i feel a pixel people killing rampage brewing inside of me.

What Emblem do you speak of? The Emblems/Titles for prestiging ended waaay back.

Once you hit 10/80 there is no reason to continue (unless you did not get enough classes unlocked).

Max prestige is over rated. I sat at max for awhile (15/80) and it did not get me anything. Which is one reason I am not going for level 20.

It seems a lot of guys are stopping at 10/80 and are perfectly happy.


The thread is going back to a BF3 vs MW3 bitch-fest.

It appears to me that there are some that hate MW3 so much that I don't get why anyone would try to get them to play it again.
If they are happy at BF3 just leave them alone.

And if you hate MW3 so much and you never plan on playing it again why keep bitching about it?


Ahhh, herein lies the rub. Some people just like bitching.


I tried BF3 and did not like it. However, you will not see me bitching about it and telling others that they should be playing MW3 instead.


I have given up on thinking that those that keep bitching about MW3 (even though they don't play it anymore) will ever stop bitching about it.

I have given up on thinking that those that keep recruiting for BF3 will stop and think that maybe we like MW3, and if we wanted to play BF3 we would already be over there.

I have given up on thinking that everyone in the clan is mature enough to just leave others alone to be happy. As if their joyless existence should be shared.


The forums are free for us to express ourselves, so whatever.


This thread is much like Groundhog Day. It seems to have to reoccur over and over with the same result: It gets uglier and uglier to the point it has to be locked. And in the end it serves to divide us more than before.



btw, I know Riff started this as a Blops vs MW3 comparison. It just got hijacked as usual and turned into something else.

Depends how you read it I guess Canis. To me it just sounds like a bunch of people sharing which game they enjoy most and providing some valid reasons why, and hoping to share those experiences with people they like(d) being on the virtual battlegrounds with.

agreed 100%

When was a thread locked due to BF3 and MW3 being discussed?

I get it you are tired of hearing about how much I love BF3. Am I out of bounds talking about having good times now on a thread where the OP talked about playing to have fun like we used to? If so then I apologize for derailment.

This thread was about the good ole days and Black Ops.

Not BF3 and MW3.

Well what if I am making new "good ol days" today? Maybe I need a new thread.

I think Gramps may have woken up on the wrong side of the bed, or maybe he's just being a little sensitive today? lol Just kidding Canis!

Probably 50% of the threads on this forum are rehashes. Yes, we do live out Groundhogs Day on this site. And really, is there anything wrong with that? goes with the territory. At least on this thread, I don't anyone has denigrated to name calling or anything like that. If anything, it's been pretty civil.

The fact is, we all have opinions, and as someone playing both BF3 and MW3, I welcome hearing both sides. I don't take any post too seriously here and if people bitch about something, I take it with a grain of salt.

Yes, you are right, some people will complain about anything and that does get old, but did you really expect everyone here to have the same opinion about everything? Car sites have Mercedes vs BMW, Ferrari vs Lamborghini, Toyota vs Honda. Camera sites have Nikon vs Canon vs Sony. Video game sites have .... well you know what they have.

It's the differences that make life interesting. If we all felt exactly the same way about MW3 or BF3 or the next Black Ops XIV, then it would be pretty boring here. In fact, I might not ever post. lol

Back on topic: As I read it, the thread is about the good ol days and Black Ops and the evil queen MW3 and maybe there would be life again with Black Ops 2. Some may take offense to the evilness of MW3 and some may add that there is also the adultress that is BF3 stealing away people to another game, but I guess that's a topic for another thread.

Here is a quote I found. Thought it applied as we look to the next better thing:

Quote :

Enjoy yourself. These are the “good old days” you’re going to miss in the years ahead.

Talking about re-hashes, I think i've posted Glory Day's by the Boss in video and/or just some lyrics a couple times before.

All of you are wrong. Every game is better than every other game, it is one's mind that makes the difference.
