Just started the SP and the missions are pretty darn good so far. Seen a few silly bugs, such as the guy ur suppose to follow getting stuck in a pillar and having to restart or players on your team that have been killed are dead on the floor but their weapons are lying on the floor still killing enemies lol.

Edit: Shame you're not getting it, Guillermo. We had some pretty good games in the first few months of MW2 :lol:

I can't really be bothered with yearly updates of the same game. Just like with most sports franchises. I'll aim to get Modern Warfare 3 if Infinity Ward still exists by then(?) though I think most of the employees left so I doubt it'll be much cop.

Gran Turismo 5 takes a higher priority, and LBP2/Mass Effect 2 will in January.

Ok so my earlier posts were about the single player, I should have mentioned really.

My brother bought it fromt Tesco's today, and hes playing the multiplayer right now and it does look quite good. More like Moder Warfare, which is a step up in my opinion from the horror fest of MW2.

Hunter, you are right, the layout of it looks excellent. Almost Halo Reach-ish.

I've only played about 2 hours of Solo Campaign & 1 hour of Online...

Solo seems to repetitive I think? And to me it seems that when you're getting shot - half the time because the screen turns red, you don't know who the fuck it is?

Online is good though apart from the fact it takes ages to mute everyone in the main menu (pisses me off) and I don't know if I like the option to replay the previous map?

So far I've played on Grid about 5 times out of 10!

True, I can't wait for GT5 either. It's going to be great in 2017 when they finally decide to release it.

What will come first:

The release of GT5 or the worldwide legalisation of cannabis?

What's with the lack of variety in the maps? I've been playing a good 5 or 6 hours now and there's about 4 or 5 levels that are so similar I can't tell the difference :/ They seem to have just threw in gimmicks to seperate them (hatch opening and closing, rocket taking off, train going by...etc.)

The dive feature is quite legendary though, having lots of fun with this. Plus zombies is obviously a plus.

Call of duty Black ops is far better than MW2. Treyarch always make call of duty a balanced game not a noobs game like MW2.
World at war was another example of a balanced game (minus the mp40 lol).
The thing is that yesterday, I had serious lag issues in multiplayer and the framerate was terrible (ps3). I heard that this problem was present in some areas.
Today it was much better and I finally managed to play this game like it should have been played. It's great so far. Though the lag and framerate issues are still present at times, it is much less than yesterday. So I suppose in a few more days, they'll be gone. Well I hope so.

Anyway back to the game.
Even the maps are balanced. There's room to play with every kit you want and still do good in most maps as long as you play your kit right.
I also really like the currency system. That way I unlock what I want.
When I learn the maps better, I believe I can hold more than a 2k/d because in this game, it's all about you mostly not the kit. In mw2, it was all about the launchers, rpgs, grenades, rifle grenades, explosions, kill streaks, and the ease of shooting.
This time it's alot harder to shoot someone down and there's a clear realistic buttlet time sort of where if thery're running, you have to aim a little bit further to where they're running.
I like that. And I also really like the dive feature.
Anyway, I really hope they fix the lag and framarate because in my country it's still not as smooth as it should be, though much better than yesterday's.

The AI is shite on this & grenades are fucking shit. I'd decided I hate this game & will be selling it. Fuck you Treyarch!

Multiplayer sucks proper balls. Shooting an enemy in the head 2 or 3 times (it actually makes the sound of a headshot) without killing them is pathetic. I'll try HC mode before selling this though, in case that's ok.

One thing that is fucking epic though...

Combat training (with a friend or two)

Tomohawks
Ballistic Knifes
Melee

ONLY (you'll need Scavenger too)

vs 9 computer enemies on Nuketown. It's fucking hilarious. I did that dive through the window of the top floor and Ballistic Knifed someone as I hit the floor down below.

:laugh: You need to upload it to Theatre Mode and show everyone!

Loving this game so far, there needs to be a few more memorable maps though that favour sniping. But on the whole the balance of the game is great and far superior to what MW2 is. It's a more difficult game to master I think with more emphasis on the gunplay as opposed to overpowered set ups that plagued MW2 e.g. Danger Close perk combined with RPGs and Grenade Launchers, M16 with Stopping Power etc etc.

Good point. Possibly though, I know the previous 100 matches you've played are saved, so maybe combat training games are saved, worth checking out I guess.

I think a mate did as he got a Tomohawk kill right off spawn and was gutted he couldn't save it.

Will check later.

Got it yesterday. Seems quite good so far, similar to waw. Look forward to getting some team tactical going, anyone know if it's 3v3?
