Modern Warfare 3

Dont throw it to trash so soon, maybe you will be blown away

The only military shooter that will me blow away, is BF3. MW3 will look like MW2, with new locations.

It still uses the Call of Duty 2 Engine.

So? That’s like saying Portal 2 uses Half Life 2’s engine, and HL2 came out before COD2.

I bet the story’ll be well done, but the multiplayer will be the same old formula. And I’m physically sick from playing that formula.

Except for the fact that the COD2 engine is incredibly limited in comparison to source.

But Source has evolved a hell of a lot since then, COD4 was the last major evolution of the engine, everything after that looks the same

bscly

There will be no flame war, BF3 already won.

BF3 already won, but CoD will still get higher sells.

I’m hoping CoD’s plummet in quality will finally be matched by a plummet in sales.

I love how it’s always a contest of Call of Duty vs Battlefield, as if either one is the best.

sure, but portal 2 and hl2 are vastly different games, while the cod franchise follows the same principles time and time again.

Battlefield’s the best.

Best=which one is the most fun and the best made. Clearly BF3 will be infinitely better made, and obviously the two can’t be the exact same amount of fun to play.

Contrary to popular belief, apples and oranges can easily be compared easily. Which one do you most often like to eat? That is the best one. I’m an apple man myself. Oranges might have a better taste, but I don’t like having to deal with the pealing and the mess.

I’d say something hopeful along the lines of ‘maybe MW3 will be more like MW than MW2’ but we all know that it’s not going to happen.

Anyone remember Joint Operations, with the 100 player maps that were 20 kilometers long? That was how you do multiplayer.

MW2>MW1. braces for flames

MW1 matches felt like the same thing over and over and over and over. It never felt like something new. And the best killstreak was a penalty because you could never get your chopper in the air and once you had it you couldn’t use anything else. MW2 had more weapon variety; each gun felt entirely different. Also, the maps felt much more different. Each map had specific tricks strategies and locations. In CoD4 it was like, oh, it’s this map again, eh. The killstreak customization was also a massive improvement. Unfortunately MW2 was full of huge glaring flaws, but I’d rather have a flawed exciting game than a well-made boring game. I’m hoping MW3 will be what MW2 should have been.

Well, COD goes on like clockwork, 1 game/ year, with mediocre quality. Just being Captain Obvious here.
Battlefield is better quality, but does not release as many titles.
Pick your poison.

That’s what Dynasty Warriors fans always say.

More sales =/= Better game.
MW3 will probably sell more, but it just won’t be able to compete with BF3 on a technical and gameplay level. I’m personally hoping that BF3 will be the game that finally pushes CoD off the throne and will force other developers to rethink and stop releasing mediocre brand name sequels.

Bobby Kotick disagrees.
