I honestly can't believe people get hyped about COD mp anymore. I'm far more interested in Warfighter in the military shooter genre, and that's not saying much.

I'm interested in Warfighter too. Although mainly because it looks very, very similar to BF3.

COD is mindless fun, nothing wrong with that, it's one of the games I can relax and do well at the same time lol.

But yeah, definitely stale at this point however I have heard good things of BLOPS 2 and I think we should wait and see before criticising BLOPS 2 MP.

I definitely believe Black Ops 2 will have vehicles in multiplayer.

Also, according to the Digital Foundry report, the demo shown didn't run at a constant 60. I wonder if multiplayer will run at 30.

Every time I check in here, I see people talking about maps, that I don't even know. Last time, when I watched someones stream, I discovered Forge made Invasion maps. Good, that I only play MLG in Reach, except when playing with you guys.

OT but I have lots of fun with Deus Ex. However made some bad choices at the beginning, but it's pretty cool. The german synchros are really horrible by the way. You hear them talking, but they don't move their lips and vice versa. Thanks Germany, that's the only thing, that I hate about you.

Getting the UK Version isn't pretty hard...

That seems like it would be a bad move. I don't play CoD any more, but when I used to, the main appeal for me was the speed and smoothness of the gameplay. Knocking down the framerate would hurt that, and if they have a working formula, why change it?

SP never runs at a constant 60fps, but MP is usually smooth. I don't think it will be 30fps.

I got it for 5 Euro at Gamestop. If I would order it from the UK, I would probably pay 5 Euro only for shipping...

I know you want to help proabably, but the way you are doing it, is typical german.

Edit:

Good to see that you're enjoying the game. It is pretty awesome. What did you do wrong in the beginning?

Well, I didn't know, that you can finish the whole game, without alerting anybody. I thought there are definetly parts in the game, in which you will alert enemies no matter what. I picked the wrong weapon at the beginning, too and I screwed up with upgrades. After this playthrough, I will do another one, but I will try to do things better this time.

vvvvvvvvv

Edit 2:


:lol

Don't worry, I have Arkham City right next to me. It's the next game on my list.

Well Halo 3 is still full of ass hats and people that like to go AFK.

REALLY hope the AFK issue is addressed in Halo 4 so that they can detect no movement and repetitive movement and kick their asses from the game.

[this is all speculation]
I think Blops 2 multiplayer's going to be on a large scale, not quite as big as Battlefield, but not far off. BF3 sold a lot, even when compared to CoD. Activision probably wants to cut into that with Blops 2. I think vehicles will be present.

The reason I could see 30FPS is because I don't think the CoD engine could handle a large scale area with vehicles. Then again, I'm probably wrong here.

So you've finally come around to what I've been telling you these past few months.

I went into Wal-Mart for more apt. crap and I saw a Reach Limited edition still for sale. Not so limited even 2 years after launch.

I can see that happening, and it would be nice to mix things ups, but Call of Duty has been so risk averse for so long now, it's hard for me to imagine them sacrificing that framerate. I don't know.

Not saying that couldn't happen, but keep in mind that Treyarch did vehicle combat in World at War and everyone hated it.

No, I'll be there, I took the week off. Gamestop is charging $99.99 and Maryland is charging 6% sales tax on top of that. This is a way better deal.

Right but you don't care to play the game at midnight? Some Halo fan you are :p

The cure is ranks

Competitive = don't screw around
Casual = screw around

I've seen more AFK players in reach than halo 2 and 3 multiplied by each other

I don't usually care to go to midnight releases for games, but Halo... I can't skip the midnight release. So many good times have been had with friends and with each game. So pumped for this year!

Recently played a few games of Halo 3 and had two games in a row with dudes betraying/killing themselves to derank. Why people still derank is beyond me. Made me realize that maybe some of the concerns that 343 has about implementing a visible ranking system in H4 are legitimate. It seems to be much more common to see people actively betraying/killing themselves in H3 than it is in Reach.

Ranks have nothing to do with AFK. The cure to AFK is a detection system that boots AFK players.

It has a lot to do with AFK

If you're AFK enough in reach... You get banned

The thing is more people will do it because unless you're a repeat offender... There is almost no negative
 
It looks like the $10 off code works again. If you want the LE cheaper, and do not care for Day 1 delivery, it is your chance! Act fast.


Midnight launch sounds like a lot of fun. There are none in my area. :/ I will jump into the campaign. Still figuring out if I should play on Heroic or Legendary. :)

In theory it's simple:

Kick players after 3 betrayals, reset the counter after 1 game. If a player gets booted, because of betrayals like 3-5 times in a row, ban him, because of unsporting conduct,

If a player does 3-5 suicides in a row, boot him. If he repeats it, ban him, too.

If a player is AFK for about 2 minutes, kick him, too. Ban him, if he repeats it.

Bans could be something like in Reach (Credit ban, quit ban) or some new ones.

I don't know, how dfficult it is to implement this in praxis
whooops fixed
, but it can't be that challenging. Other games are doing it, too and it helps a lot, IMO.
