Which game are you getting BF3 or MW3 ?

[hdinred]

Funny these unbalanced complaints about COD are being made in this thread. I’ve put hours into BF3 and I’m still getting killed by heat seeking missiles and other items I haven’t “earned” yet.

Speaking of BF3, I love the large maps for the most part, but there are times when the action is mighty thin. Almost a little too spread out for the amount of players.

Too bad you don't have the definitive ps3 version, because id send a heat-seeking rocket right up your ass too (no homo).

Why would he settle for the sub par ps3 version? He already owns the definitive PC version along side his 360 version.

What you do in your spare time is none of my business

But I can make an exclusive announcement: I do plan on firing up the old PS3 this week to make some progress on the Uncharted series.. you heard it here first..

And at Kage, really about the textures? Have you seen the sandbags or the paper flat grass on BF3? I'm sure you have. Anyways, I'm saying that the graphics on COD BO, are up there with BF3, not better. But I am saying that MW3 is up there in every way just about with BF3 in graphics.

And these youtube videos suck. Mine included. Nothing like seeing it on your own TV up close.

Yes I've seen the sandbags, didn't see anything wrong with them.

Also the paper flat grass is a common technique (likely alpha textures) used in games, IIRC the CoD games use the same technique.

Thats great. Now it will probably ylod on you.

I don't know how to use that heat-seeking missile anyways. I ranked up enough to get it, but nothing happens when I hold the fire button. Even if I hold the button for it lock on, assuming it needs to, nothing happens. So I switched back to the regular ol rpg.

The "heat seaking missile" (SA-18) is only an anti-aircraft weapon. You can earn it by playing a round or three as engineer (you get it very quickly). To use it, simply find an aircraft or helicopter, and aim at it until it locks, then fire.

I want to do this. Ben! BEN! You reading this?

I saw my first COD MW3 commercial today and it literally looks like the same COD since 4.

Not to single you out, but I see this comment from time to time and I don't understand it. Just looking at these pics between MW1 to MW2 shows a large improvement, and the improvements have increased since then.

Maybe some people don't realize how poor MW1 looks by today's standards?

You might be right if those improvements carry over to the game generally. That's quite a difference. I think COD just generally suffers from Maddenism -- and whether right or wrong, a lot of people here are simply accustomed to thinking of COD as iterational ('more of the same') each release.

Ya, I went to another sentence without finishing the first up properly. I meant it to come out as, COD BO has graphics that match BF3 at times imo, and it's better at some of the stuff at times. But not consistant.

From the clips of gameplay of seen, and again, I'll have to play it myself here when the hardened edition comes next week, but from what I've seen, the graphics of COD MW3 look to match BF on most everything, and look better on some stuff.

Anyways, really? You don't think the sandbags look pretty crappy? They aren't even rounded. They're flat on one side like paper.

Edit... I mean look at this picture we took of a bus. Not really anything to write home about.

Is that the 'stinger'? If so, that makes sense. I figured it'd lock onto to a tank or other ground vehicles, but it didn't.

Yeah, exactly right. It won't lock on to ground targets, only air

Doesn't look great, but it does look better and more detailed than the jeep that was in the video you posted yesterday.
