it doesn't take dedication to unlock your favorite weapons,
I really can't say it takes dedication to get weapons - getting 10th / 15th prestige? Yes, but simply ranks or weapons? Not really.
That's like saying it takes dedication doing a Battleground on World of Warcraft - it's much more like taking dedication to consistently get the top tier of gear.
The way High said it made it seem as if that's all there was customization wise
Sorry about that - customization in CoD hasn't gotten better and prefering Crysis 2 or Bad Company 2 over CoD I didn't think I would hint customization as one of my top priorities
In practical uses there are a small few amount of scopes.
i was saying that there are more than just a couple scopes, things like duel mags and rapid fire.
Why limit you to one, however? In Crysis 2 you can have as many attachments as you can fit on there with a few exceptions. Lazer Sights / Reflex / Assault(ACOG) sights are possibilities in one of four sections.
Then you have your underbarrel - Hologram / Grenade Launcher / Gauss Rifle and roughly 4 others :P
I'm not going to go on - but I'm just thinking that it's only good customization because you have choice, whereas if you took a lot of the attachments in CoD, you could apply most of them into a single gun, Extended / Dual mags? Easily.
I'd lol if I see a bipod for the snipers to reduce sway now XD Or a strap for it.
Campaign doesn't necessarily make up a game, take Team Fortress 2 for example, it doesn't even have a campaign and it's still considered a good game.
The main reason I usually don't care about the campaign in FPS is because they're not something... amazing. It's just a generic campaign and you don't see anything new or any good presentation of it - that, and what am I going to be playing longer? Singleplayer or Multi?
I clearly stated that the MP was great.
It looked alright from what I know - gunplay I'm not too sure about but I feel like it could easily be something like MW2 where you die in a matter of .25 seconds.
MW2 did have a weak campaign and multiplayer(as well as spec ops in my opinion) which is why I don't play it, Black Ops had an ok campaign, and the multiplayer was good(in my opinion).
One thing I appreciated about Black Ops' campaign is that it was streamlined - it wasn't this usual "Big script" fight everywhere, granted, it was in some or a few places but I can easily say that the little details they put in (Hitting the guard with a rock) made it much more lively.
It has it's flaws, but at the end of the day it's fun(me and 25 million other regular player can contest to that)and in the end that's what really matters.
That's one of the problems though. What game actually can't be fun nowadays? The main reason I would not be entertained by CoD is because I think it's a bad game - I can get entertained by any modern game and most made a decade ago (Armies of Exigo was a stellar job, Age of Empires II I play with my family to this day and Crash Bandicoot / Mario / Sonic / Pokemon are amazing games in their own respect!)
It's the debate of quality in my opinion - is it fun? Easily, is it a good game in balance etc? I really can't say it is.
To throw it out there. I find Halo balanced. It sounds dumb but it's this rolling the dice action in Halo where the better the weapon the stronger you are - things were unbalanced to the point where it actually was balanced. You wasn't always fragile but sometimes it only took a shot, you couldn't always go in unless you had a lovely gravity hammer or energy sword.
I don't know if I come off as it, but you guys seem to be acting as if I think COD is the best game out there... I don't.
It's a bit hard to know how to reply given what I just said above - do you construe games the same way I do or are we at a different understanding?
ok so most people on this thread are against CoD.
It makes good discussion it seems
Why do you check this thread.
I don't check the WEPR because of idiocy which is beyond the level I see on here... surprisingly.
I mean. I had times i enjoyed CoD. This is with an exceptation from Black Ops. But i want to play Modern Warfare 3. I am not looking foreward to it and i aint gonna buy it. But i don't mind if my friends plays it with me
You're more or less against CoD and rooting for your friends playing it with you. O.o
