I read somewhere that 3 different developers are basically sewing together a full game. This potentially has disaster written all over it. People will buy it though, but this is a wait and see for me. It will probably be buggy as hell and MP might feel completely different, so give it a month or so after release to make a decision
i liked battlefield better.. GREAT sounds, and the stabbing was the best! wasnt 100% accurate but still better than these lunge swipes or non existent air swipes!!!
MW is done... it'll be something else and it will probably suck... they have milked COD enough.
The MoH SP was epic. The MP needed some work but it wasn't given enough time overall.
My point exactly. The SP had some great features that were missing from the MP because they were developed by different companies.

The Battlefield series IMO is the best FPS series to date. Dice knows how to make an entire series of games without making it just rehash after boring rehash like the CoD series is.
Also, in Bad Company 2, I prefer killing people with the engineer tool or the defibrillator rather than the knife. It's that much more satisfying.

I can't wait until BF3 comes out this year! I just can't decide if I wanna get it on PC or 360.
Be interesting to see what happens in regards to MW3..
I for one cannot seem to get right into Black Ops on the 360 this time around . seems to glitch , lag , stutter and has some of the weirdest hit detection ever ..all the things that SHOULD not be happening online .. not to mention the shooting around corners crap lol..
Anyway .. I went back to MW2 and MW1 and instantly it felt "right" .. not sure why though
I hope to god they learn from the mistakes .. hacking..lobbys etc and actually make it the best they can.
I won't be surprised if they come out with something in November, like they've been doing. Whether or not it's worth buying is another story all together. Is the remainder of IW going to be working on it? I didn't read the article... I'll go do that now =p
**EDIT** Yupp my prior opinion still stands, though I have a little faith that maybe the companies can pull it off. While I have never heard of Raven, Singularity LOOKED LIKE (aka I never played it) a pretty good game.
And BTW they picked a great map for the pic... Bog <3

No question whatsoever, it will be much better on PC.
Yeahhhh but for me, I could careless what will appear better. I go where my friends go, in terms of gaming. I'm the only one with a rig that would be able to handle it.

Singularity was a decent game. Buggy as hell but decent nonetheless.

Yeah? Well then hopefully Raven and the remainder of IW can pull it together, along with this Activision internal Sledgehammer or whatever it was called, and make us a game on par with CoD4 and MW2... mostly CoD4 but I'd be happy with MW2 performance =D

True that. I'll prolly get it. I said I wasn't going to get Black Ops and I did... and even though I have my doubts, this is STILL IW (pretty much) putting this one together. I'm sure I'll pre-order it lol.
I have my doubts on this game, but I will keep a heads up when it comes to SP. That's the only thing that makes me wonder about this game. Ghost story and how his life have been.
I don't see what another COD game would do for multiplayer. Let the newest Ghost Recon come out instead.

I kinda feel the opposite. I have seen much much more shooting around corners in MW2 than blops. Magic bullets were caused by netcode that, in an effort to avoid uber-host domination, evened out lag between all the players (or so I've heard). I honestly don't see this as much in blops. Its still there, but not as severe in my observation.
But regarding MW3, Raven did make the soldier of fortune games which were loads of fun...mostly due to the disemboweling, dismembering, decapitating bloody goodness. If you were quick you should shoot off both legs and maybe an arm or two before the body hit the ground with a heavy machine gun. For some reason...I don't think MW3 multiplayer will have that stuff.

I read awhile back the next COD could be set in the future. I kinda of have mix feelings on that ho. Most futuristic games kinda suck but if anyone can pull it off, its these guys.

Not all futuristic games but most. I'm actually very curious how the new Ghost Recon game will do.

Yeah, maybe they'll do something drastic, like instead of shooting down hallways, it'll be SPACE hallways, and maybe instead of an M4, it'll be a SPACE M4 with LAZORS. And this time there will be a scripted quick time event every TWO seconds instead of five! It'll sell billions!
Oh and the multiplayer will be awesome. You'll randomly spawn behind the enemy even more commonly now, and then an enemy will randomly spawn behind you, and then all the twelve year olds will call each other ******s, and then people will camp and complain about hackers when they get shot, and it'll be sooooo cool and soooooo new and sooooo groundbreaking and original!
Can't forget, make sure that it totally sucks for no reason on PC and uses the Xbox graphics! PC players love that! And no dedicated servers too!
Man CoD is like the best game of all time because Infinity Ward and Treyarch sure know how to use ctrl+c -> ctrl+v.
Meanwhile Battlefield 3 will come out and not get any press.
The Following User Says Thank You to Rota For This Useful Post:
Everybody has their preferences when it comes to games. Which Battlefield games did you play and what did you not like about them?
Probably the fact that in Battlefield you have to actually aim, unlike unrealistic COD games where bullets fly straight no matter how far they go.
Just my guess, since thats what most people dislike about Battlefield.
Ive played both Battlefield on PS3 and yes it does look good and there are many other arguments you can make, it cant match COD in the FUN factor. Thats what matters and thats why COD will alway be on top.

That's your opinion. Battlefield is a more realistic shooter. If your entertained by RC-bombs and flying a gunship then that's great for you. I personally, along with a few others here love Battlefield and would prefer it over any other shooters.
I'll take a Battlefield Huey or Hind any day over a CoD Chopper Gunner & Gunship.

Call of Duty sales dominate Battelfield... clearly alot of people are having more fun with COD.
Never bothered with PC gaming. Gaming on consoles is the easiest, cheapest, fastest and most popular way to accomplish my gaming needs. Ive never sat around with my boys wanting to play a game on the computer.

Bring stats to the table for Call of Duty vs Battlefield total sales then we can discuss.

Easiest in terms of start the damn thing up and be playing in 5 minutes. I had a PC nutslinger working with me when World at War came out. I bought for PS3 and played that night. He found out the game required a better graphics card or some bs.. no thanks. I was bored with the game by the time he was able to run it.

I guess that just proves my theory that the more patient people do game on the PC.
I would much rather spend 3 hours building a machine that will be able to run anything for the next 5+ years, rather than spend 5 minutes setting up a console that will only be able to run games for maybe the next two years.
Two years?? Cmon now.. ps3 is still the most advanced console out there and its 4 years old. The full potential of the ps2 wasnt even used til games like god of war came out.
COD comes in at 88 million sales. Battlefield an estimated 30 million. Modern Warfare 2 nearly outsold the entire Battlefield series.
Remember now, COD is among the biggest name if not the biggest name in FPS franchise. What does this mean, people will buy the game regardless of being good. Just like MW3 which is not a continuing the story, but instead you see everything through Ghost's eyes in COD4 and MW2.
Back to what I said, I am probably among the people that like BO the most on this forum, but I do say this. COD at the moment is overrated, it's not selling anymore because its great - but because its more popular and everyone have friends that plays it. Regardless of this, I will go the newest Ghost Recon game and BF3 anyday.
Since in COD franchise, I can't see how 3 companies can make a game good. Best example is MoH, where SP is among the best SPs I have ever played in term of feeling. Where MP failed in most aspects other than gamemodes, I really liked the ideas for gamemodes. Shame it was poorly executed and rushed bit too much.
But back to what you said, I loved to use the argument most sold is the better product before but that is not always true. Special not in the gameworld where people have different tastes and where the aspect of the game itself is different. Since COD will always be a arcade FPS where BF will present reality little bit better then what other games do it. Maybe the few games that beat it is games like Ghost Recon, AA series and Op Flashpoint. Which is again not really trying to conquer the action marked, but catering to the old fans instead.

I might have exaggerated a little, but the main issue with consoles is that you can't upgrade them. In the event you do run into a game you can't play because of some hardware limitation, it's buy a new console or no game. That just doesn't seem worth it to me, but to each his own, sorry if I sounded rude.

Don't forget to add its very hard to program games for PS3 compared to other consoles and computer. Computer will always be the easiest one to make a game for, but I know a lot of people is complaining about programming for PS3 because of the advanced structure that takes a lot more time compared to PC where its much more simple to get the same effect.
While I agree with you, but its not hard to make a great computer either like what most people say. You just need to know how to set it up and where to buy the pieces, but reason why I stick with consoles is because I'm moving around a lot. So other than laptop, I can't really have a computer.

I'll have to disagree with you there, it isn't incredibly hard to make a good computer. If you want to make a truly great computer, (which in my opinion would be a computer that could run every game for the next 20-30 years flawlessly) that requires time and research. Especially when you get into all the fancy stuff like multiple graphics cards, CPU's, liquid cooling, etc.
You could not possibly build a computer today capable of running games 25 years from now, that is absurd.
Hardly. Unless games advance an incredible amount from where they are now, a setup that had the best parts possible (lets say multiple Intel Hexa Core processors, and multiple GTX 580's/480's, just in terms of CPU/GPU) could easily run any game created for quite a long time.
My point being; most people don't have the patience, the time, the money, or the willingness to create a setup like that. Not to mention it would be considerably cheaper to just upgrade your PC as new games rolled out.
Modern Warfare 3?
