Finally fell in love with this game and here is why...

As of tonight I am officially over Bops and now have a new love, this.
To start with I hated the maps but now I'm actually quite fond of them, just had to change my style from AR to SMG and shotty and that's what done the trick, you move 20% faster or there about's than with AR and they are also deadly accurate and powerful and great for bumping into people 10 feet away which I always seem to do.
The perk system works really good, QD/HL/SC/SH are awesome and tbh I feel sorry for the Assassin and Blind Eye users, I can easily take down every chopper 'without' the Blind Eye perk, one shot with the Stinger purchased with a coin after my 1st prestige takes your Chopper down or two for your Osprey drop.
Something else I find amazing is the amount of people using they Support kill streaks, some games you play every player in the other team have there 18 point streaks so barely have anything else the full game and for what? an EMP, no problem, A juggernaut with a shield and easy to kill (knifed the last 2) and an Osprey that gets shot down without a dropped CP, gotta laugh.
A couple of things still annoy me, Predator, without Blind Eye its always me who gets it and quick-scopers but they aren't going anywhere so I'm just going to have to live with that.
As for the OP complaints, type 95 is not OP, they are using a 3 round burst and since when did 3 round bursts not kill? silly argument if you ask me.
After the patch today and considering how quick it was I have to congratulate IW and SH on the quickness of it, what was it, 2 days of mass exploiting then patched, very swift work.
Anyway, that's all, hope you enjoyed my longest post ever.
Pretty much agree with everything you have said. This is a love hate game people either love it or they hate it. There isn't much inbetween.
I agree. Im starting to love it, so thats good news for me!
What patch today?
I agree but i miss the maps like wasteland and the other large maps where snipers and ARs ruled the game
they might bring out some in the next months to come. variety is always nice.
Like you Craig, I'm enjoying this game.
But it's connection problems which from time to time annoys the crap out of me whether it's dying once I make it around the corner or shooting a clip of "pellet" bullets while getting shot down in a couple of bullets.
The "payback" spawn system and that "1337" scoper who kills me one off my Pave Low...arghh but I'll get through it.
I am disappointed that the IW I remember who were great with implementing a decent connection system didn't get it right from launch but I'm hoping they will sort it out soon.
But as you said, it's a great game.
I agree, the more I play the more I like.
After the first night my KD was 0.45. Now after playing around with my setups, I am back to 1.0 overall and over 1.0 in TDM.
This game plays differently than black ops and MW2. And some of the maps are not as small as once thought. One or two bigger maps would make everything 100x better.
I have a love hate relationship with MW3. One minute Im having fun having great games. The next it goes bipolar and everything sucks in it. I carry a 1.65 KD in it where as in WaW and Cod4 I have a 2 KD, BO 1.8 KD, and in MW2 a 1.3 (I was terrible at MW2 until this summer haha raised it from a .75 to that with about 15000 more kills). Hopefully some patches will come out that will make matchmaking better and spawning better. That takes out my two most hated things in MW3.
I completely agree. With the current map set up, there is no reward for using an AR. Ive been abusing the MP7. So fun to use.
I think the people that hate the game are too rigid in how they are trying to play the game. And they are getting pooped on for it, and thus hate the game.
Historically I had only used the assault rifles from CoD4 until I got MW3. Never really needed to use a SMG either, before now, because most of the maps would penalize you for using one. Other than there being no counter to noob tubes/explosives in HC and dang team kills counting as deaths on my kdr, I too love this game.
You know I still haven't used the MP7 yet but heard about from another forumer yesterday so as soon as its unlocked I shall give it a blast and as for the no explosive counter in HC, completely agree with that, they really need an update for BS in HC, as for team kills that bit doesn't bother me as I only team kill only once in while.

Wiggy likes the game too Craig, while it's been a "work in progress" and a major adjustment, Wiggy thinks that was IW's intent. They didn't want the same ole' people rolling up and doing the same thing they did in the previous games. Wiggy thinks the spawns are created to keep these long killstreaks from happening, which in turn keeps killstreak rewards/pointstreaks from happening, so it's more about the guns.
While Wiggy may be wrong, this is how Wiggy sees it.
Good to have you back in the fold brother!
Haha good to be back and loving what I do again, see the spawn thing you speak of, at first I hated it but now think it was actually meant to be made like that to stop people camping and like you say getting huge kill streaks, really don't get where all this camping with Assassin silencer threads are coming from, campers just don't last long in the same spot this time round in my experience.
And since when did 3 round bursts not kill? When you're using the M16.
Stopping power M16 on Cod 4 and WAW was a kill, don't know about MW2 as I didn't really play but anyway, 3 round burst has always been a kill in my books.
Edit/ Come to think of it the M16 isn't even in WAW, must've been MW2 I used in.
while i wasn't totally hating the MP, i was a lil disappointed with some aspects, but yea, the game is starting to come around to me...just gotta shake off the BLOPS mindset and as wiggy said...adjust. i do like the fresh maps, although a lil more complex i still like not having remakes of previous maps. but am starting find a lil grove and things are starting to turn around.
I truly think it is the best COD yet. So many balance issues have been fixed. This is by far the COD with the least amount of issues at launch.
Oh don't know about that yet, huge Bops fan here and played for a full year, don't think I will ever say a game is better than Bops overall but this will will be close.
It will all be good by Christmas. Issues resolved or forgotton about. Everyone will of adjusted to the style.
Well so I think. Am sure there will be a small few who are still going on about things.
Lag is always going to be an issue, i think because of the fan base which is so large but who knows. I usually don't have lag problems but have noticed a few minor lag problems with this game.
Cant really see the problem with Assassin...Its a perk not everyone uses it. Cant beat em join em as someone once said.
Spawns am sure will be dealt with.
