The Call of Duty Thread

Porque?

I enjoy it.

Oh, I'm doing well. I have a winning record, I'm level 26 or something like that. The servers are so bad that you can't keep a party going for more than two games. The respawns are so bad that I got killed and literally spawned on top of my body, only to get killed again by the same guy instantaneously. I like the gun game on wagers, but that's probably all I'll play. It's just not my thing. I'm tired of dogs and rc cars and helicopters that you can't shoot down and that stay aloft for like 2 minutes. There is just no polish on this game. Hell, even the English is incorrect, "Players have ran around the world 5,612 times." Sure, some of the new things are awesome, really awesome, but overall, I'm woefully disappointed.

That's definitely a good reason not to buy the game...

There will be patches to make it better. That is what they do.

You all are depressing me.

I don't second guess my decision to buy BO, but MW2 is way better and it's not close. I am up for playing whatever the gang does but I suspect our weekend mw3 fixes are not as much in the past as I thought.

As I mentioned to HL, I think the best part of these games above anything else is playing with the group. Putting in work as a group, everybody will have fun. What will suck is I would bet the MW2 games are going to be watered down right now with:

1) Kids waiting until Christmas for Black Ops
2) People who aren't really into COD and don't want to spend for the new game
3) People who are pissed because they can't Nuke the living shiz out of everybody in Black Ops.

Tell me again how this is a bad thing? This should mean that those of us who can nuke the shit out of everybody will do it more often. And those who have been super close can get there.

I'd definitely say MW2 is better head to head, given that a lot of the innovations of MW2 are used in this game. Having said that, I'm going to play BO for quite some time (although I'll play a little MW2 to get to Prestige 10).

I'm just sick of MW2, I've probably played it more than anyone here and it has taken its toll. There are too many newb tubes, quick scopers and endless killstreaks.

I find BO to be more pure, not get 5 kills and hide while killstreaks do the rest. I do have plenty of complaints though, but it's something new, and I like that. I also like customizing my guy with the player card. I just got face paint too.

And the gamers and the COD OGs that can tell a good.game.from a not so good.game. it was the same way when WaW came out. In about 2 weeks most people were back to MW.

After about 2 hours of game play, the game is growing on me.
I played TDM, Headquarters and Ground War.

As said many times before, the graphics are not mind blowing. The guns are okay, but I do not believe there is a good LMG. I also wish the shotgun can be a secondary and not a primary.

The maps, once I started to learn them, are fun. They have good layouts.

The RC car which I thought was going to be annoying is one of my favorite things in the game actually. I wish the killstreaks were better or more similar to MW2.

All in all at this point I don't think its a game that I would sell back as it is very fun to play. I played with a team of friends and we won a few matches and I had fun playing the game.

The game is different in the sense that it is more challenging due to the contracts and what not. The graphics are not up to par like MW2, but in my opinion at this point...BO is a fun and challenging game.

I do not regret buying the game.

P.S.-Zombies is not bad either with a good crew.

I love this game, and I think the multiplayer is a big step forward from mw2. There, I said it.

[Hot Lunch]

I played for the first time tonight. I kind of liked it. It isn't as good as MW2 but it was kind of fun.

Aaand, it appears Sandy Ravage is dominant once again:

People were glitching last night on Jungle. We won, but if I review the video, I'm sure that I can show proof that this guy was inside of a rock.

I tried to join Flyn last night, but kept getting an error that said my playlist data was newer than the hosts. I assume that's because when I popped the game in for the first time, it downloaded an update (I don't understand why on earth a brand new game had an update). I could still get into other games though. It was annoying.

That video inspired me to do some work in FFA this morning, just played 2 games and went 60-16 with a silenced AK74u, i'm loving that gun with double magnums (pythons?) as my secondary. Both games are in my fileshare for anyone interested.

Edit: Just tried out the theater for the first time, it's pretty cool. You can jump around easily between kills/deaths, and see the game from anyone's perspective. I like watching from my enemies perspective and seeing me kill them.

I thought you were done with the game?
