i quit playing regularly a while ago but once or twice a week i boot the game up thinking it'll be fun, then end up too pissed off to see straight after 40 minutes. last night i kept getting put into the same lobby full of hackers who had MOABS and 12:1 kill to death ratios. couldn't get into mercenary because no one was playing it, so it was just one shitty FMG clan after another. nerf that ******* gun. it's ridiculous for such an easily fixed issue to ruin an entire game for 7 months.

But then someone hacks and bans you and then you hate this game

There are a ton of things that make this a good game.

1) It's super fast paced... Black Ops wasn't slow.. but I actually played checkers with my 85 year old grandma while playing Black Ops Team Deathmatch and still got dogs. (lol jk... not really, but MW3 is faster than BO)

2) The new OP guns are really challenging to take down... so its actually a pretty good sweat to beat noobs running around with FMG9s and PP90M1 or MP7 rapid fire... so I find killing them so rewarding it makes the game THAT more exciting.

3) Lots of guns to try out and master. If you always use the same damn gun because you care more about your KDR than you do about your skill and general fun while playing... of course you get pissed and angry and frustrated and ultimately bored... because all you know how to use is ONE gun and now that you hit your skill threshold and can't push past it, you get mad... you blame the gun, the lag, hackers... blablabla... if you had tried out different guns from the start, different setups, perks and everything... you'd still be having fun and still be learning a lot... and probably, just probably... your skill threshold will rise much further than you can reach... meaning your KDR will keep going up as you get better and it will never lay stagnate at X level because you don't feel like changing guns and improving.

4) MOABs BABY!!

5) Making Hackers Rage Quit... Whenever I find a hacker in a public lobby I get into the zone and just zero on him... murder him 3-7 times and after a kill watch him rage quit. (Priceless)

6) Competitive Play... While there are hackers out there that claim to have earned everything... in Competitive play vs other teams/clans/etc... it's pretty fun to play that sort of fast paced skilled play. It just makes the game so addictive... everyone running ACRs,UMP45 and such... it makes for a really strong game that overall can't be beat by pub-stomping.

7) Just going through the learning curve, understanding the new weapons, ranges, explosives, perks. Sure you get the hang of them pretty fast... but it's still pretty cool to put your skills to the tests.

8) I've never had a single issue with my Wii or MW3... I've never lost my data, broken my disc reader, froze mid match.. etc.

Hackers/Glitchers/Campers... I can deal with.. they are just noobs that need a good spanking, and because I play good.. I can whoop their butts back to elementary school.

9) My team/clan... We have slowly lost members and are now at 13, but playing in a party with my clan buddies makes the game so much better, just chatting or communicating to play a really tight match and win... and the overall attitude of team mates pushing each other to do better.

10) I don't camp, I have fun and play hard... don't matter the outcome... win or lose

11) All of the above combined into a single practice match vs my clan mates. The friendly trash talk of private free-for-all matches.

12) Pushing my skills further and further... using tough weapons and developing new skills until "unviable" set ups become so strong they become my A-game...

I don't know why everyone keeps complaining about... sure the FMG9s are OP... but if you are smart you can beat em... sure there are hackers... well if you don't feel like teaching them a lesson JUST QUIT and go to another lobby. Campers? Bah... let them get 1 kill on you then come back and tea-bag their corpse.

Games are meant to challenge you and help you improve... build up your personality and teach you mental strength... of course kids these days prefer crappy games that pad them on the back (because I can't use profanity) everytime they hit a button.

I don't find this game tolerable... I find this game... a lot of fun.

EDIT: Added point 3&12 and moved the numbers.

PS: My KDR is 2.20 (not awesome, but definitely not bad)

Treyarch > IW

That's what I think.

You should preach to the wii community.

I had my blackout for the last month. That will teach activision!

Anyways, the problem with this game is that its not fixable. They can patch it as much as they want, but the FGM9s will still be there, the deathstreaks, the small maps(for wii at least), all the garbage's still there. Lag compensation to the extreme, a guy from zimbabwe can see me 2 seconds before i see him. Its just UGH. This game caters to casual gamers and hardcore 5 year olds, not to real and hardcore gamers anymore. Its the sad truth...shame what CoD has become. BO2 is treyarch's chance to launch CoD back up again. They almost achieved it with BO(BO was a HUGE step up from MW2, BO was like rainbow crap compared to MW2, which was elephant crap), but IW had to go and do it again.....

You are right; that's not hacking. That's lag. I had a lot of that happening this afternoon. Unfortunately, first match I entered, another clan was an enemy and about 30 seconds into the game after I went 3-3 (due to the same lag you're talking about), I got predator'ed. Left the match immediately with a bad taste in my mouth for the game, but tried another few matches before I just couldn't take the "entire clip doesn't kill the guy, but one bullet from them kills me" lag issue.

Maybe I'll try later tonight. Wasn't going to and am not "participating" in blackout day. Had my blackout period Monday-Thursday thanks to work. :-)

I can't anymore D: Ive tryed and i just can't get into both Twilight Princess or OoT. Skyrim has spoiled me.. not that LoZ is a bad game by any means its just that Skyrim has soooo much more to do.

Minecraft makes you use your imagination to build buildings or even complex traps to catch narbs trying to steal your diamond.

Its really fun, specially with friends.

I feel the same way about Lag Ops. While i do still think MW3 is basically a good game the community is screwing it up. If you're not playing hackers then you're either playing FMG/PP90 spayers who blow at the game or hiders with Type 95s. Now @codcancuk you're an idiot.. MW3 has balance. A few bad apples do not spoil the bunch. If you're gonna call a game unbalanced weapon wise then look at the whole picture and not just three weapons.. same goes for BO. As i have said MW3 is basiclly a good game but that being said i am going to join the MW3 blackout today (keep in mind that Wii gamers were encouraged to join it) in hopes of making some kind of difference. I just want MW3 to be the way it as a few months ago.. less FMGs and hacking scum bags. I think I'm gonna play some BF3 today and for those of you that sadly do not own more then one system i say go play a past CoD or Goldeneyeor even Conduit and if those don't suit you there is always MKW and Brawl.
