Completely ruins the competitive dynamic, or splits the community in two, depending on if the pointer option is just another control scheme or it's a separate set of modes.

it's not 2006 where no one had a mic, though im not sure that 80% people with a mic is a good thing now since I always end up having to mute them anyway.
Yeah that's what I figured.
The early days of PS3 when no one had a mic was both horrible and awesome at the same time.
Some. Depends on if you're running with the GAF clan mostly. We always used to BS as we played.
I'm still the clan lead for the GAF PS3 crew. If anyone wants in, just send me a massage and I'll add you Monday night when I pick up the game

So fucking pumped! Will have this Friday at the absolute latest.
I believe it depends on what modes you are playing. I always see people using Mics on TDM and S&D (and that's what I play mostly too so I don't know about other modes).

I do have to say good thread, had no interest in this COD outside of zombies until today.

Yes, for teh most part they do, but I'm used to playing in full parties with clan mates on Elite and we only recruit guys with mics, so my perspective is a little skewed.

Or a mix of difficulties on both teams. In BO1, easy bots were brain dead. You could be Rambo and steam roll them. Veteran bots, on the other hand, had dead aim to where you had to play very cautiously. They were actually more cheap than difficult (apparently they tweaked this for BO2.) It would have been nice to have a mix so that when engaging them in a match, you don't necessarily know which ones are which. Seems to me like an obvious feature you would want to have. Don't know why it's not for the devs.

Does Perfect Dark still have the deepest bot customization out of any FPS? Sad if that's true.

It's definitely under private game options. So I'm sure its represented in playlists too.
Oh yeah thats a good idea too.

Got a feeling that this will be the best CoD yet.
well, i hope so. But i think all the Treyarch ones so far have had pretty terrible maps. Which is where multiplayer FPS games live or die.
After MW3, anything is an improvement.

You scroll past the GIANT prices and SPECIAL EDITION OFFERS HOLY FUCKING SHIT THEY LOOK AMAZING to get to the information you want.
I suspect thats how its suppose to go anyway.

Agreed. MW3 maps were the fucking worst IMO.
Never played it. Mainly because i looked at the top down views of the maps. They all looked like they'd just randomly plopped some buildings down with no thought. A shame after MW and MW2 actually had some fairly good ones.

They had pointer controls in past CoDs, and it didn't ruin the competitive dynamic. It ultimately comes down to skill.

Really? I thought Blops had great maps. MW3 was a clutterfuck [sic].

What do you guys think of the maps so far? The ship map looks cool.

awesome OP. Does anyone know if there are any good preorder deals or coupons?
Well, the MW3 maps were made specifically for constant-movement gamemodes. They were like big figure of eights, just run around on this racetrack and shoot someone in the back or be shot in the back. So a lot of gamemodes were ruined, S&D was killed completely.
The ADHD AMAGAWD SPRINT players loved them however.
But thankfully there's a general consensus that they sucked ass.

MW2 maps made me stop playing COD; they were 100% inferior to MW1 - I went back to that for a while before letting my Live eventually lapse.
No, it was awesome.
no. you just bad.

Do you have to get the scorestreaks in a row without dying or just accumulate them?
Both Infinity Ward and Treyarch have produced some shit maps, but Black Ops had some of the best. Firing Range, Summit, WMD were all instant classics. (I won't include Nuke Town because that is a severe love/hate with some people)
the ones callin afghan is a bad map are scrubs. they are the one always try to skip wasteland, if they do play on wasteland, they always go into the center cave.

I loved MW2 maps. D:
In a row, no more "Support" streaks like in MW3. They do stack though, and EVERY bit of score you earn goes toward them.

I don't know if I'd go quite that far but yeah it was better than the vast majority of MW3 maps.
