Nothing beats MoHAA... Back then the games were really made to be real, no killstreak bullshit or whatever, and give a real feeling, since CoD4 it's completely the other way. Imagine MoHAA with nowadays physics/graphics...
I wish they stopped being ****s, Infinity ward and activision won't be the same, I'm tired of everything looking like it was covered in gasoline or was made with gloss paint, It's pissing me off. Maybe I should have said that a few years when Next-Gen Came out....
Ah well, Black-"nocks" I'm sure will just be the same in your face action I'll complete in 5 hours, Go online, Fight kids that should have been in bed two hours ago, Ragequit, Repeat.
Where is the new stuff.. Make a RC car simulator for peetes sake
Clearly Infinity ward is like no more anyway. Treyarch are creating it.
Then again it looks like MW2 in a different Era and with things that should of been in the game ages ago. Guess they finally took a note from CSS and grew a brain.
Ill proberly get it only for the reason despite the fact that even if MoH is a better game the masses will go to Black Ops purely for the name "Call of Duty" as long as it has that name in it people will buy it.
how can you guys tell if this game is going to be bad when you haven't even played it?? its on the WAW engine and it has been in development before mw2, its not a reskinned mw2.
Oh really? Kill streaks, same game modes same weapons different era... new maps.
Has the call of duty name in it.
Yep its the same game, only new thing will be the single player but no one judges a game on that anymore (yes youth of today are that screwed) unless the multiplayer is good will make or break a game.
The Call of Duty series is incredibly popular, Modern Warfare 2 has broken just about every record for sales in the industry, and this new game looks to be even bigger and better. It definately deserves its own thread, but perhaps you guys don't need to read every single thread posted on the forum? It's not like the title was "Megan Fox porn video", you knew what to expect when you opened it. I also can't help but notice the same old comments you see about anything popular creeping into the thread. If it's been going on long enough, or it has enough fans, someone will dislike it and feel the need to tell the world why they dislike it. Some of them will have legitimate reasons, but mostly it's just people trying to set themselves apart from the crowd without actually studying the very thing they are criticising.
Your post is so general however that you could say the same about Justin Bieber instead of this Call of Duty game.
The forum is open for either end, the positive and the negative. Some people see this game and want to buy it and think it will be some great new thing. Some people will see this game and say "oh look, its an update to a game I have already paid for but I must pay again".
Your right, some people do go against the crowd, but thats just a general thing that can be said about anything. This game however hasn't changed a bit in the last... 3-5 years? I personally don't see how people are so attracted to this game, just like some people can't see why I am NOT attracted to this game.
The reason I mentioned MoHAA and CoD2 was because those were classic and long term games. The past few years however we have got short term games that will last you a year and then you have to "upgrade". It's completely pointless to go this route to me because I am not getting what I should be getting for my money. Even Counter Strike to Counter Strike Source was done properly. Saying "The Call of Duty series is incredibly popular" is like saying "Justin Bieber is incredibly popular". Who cares if he is? He sucks. Sales mean nothing to me, thats just marketing. The quality of the product is all I care about, and when you bring a "new" game out with the same old stuff, the quality of the product goes down.
To think people actually complain about the pricing on iRacing when they pay for the same game every year also...
