Probably, I have at least three friends of mine who have GIRL in their clan tag and they are all dudes, they get pm's on PSN all the time after games with guys wanting to flirt and get their facebook name or something stupid. It's pretty hilarious actually.

Re: is it worth picking up some DLC for MW3 still?

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 13 May 2013 01:58:59 GMT

The new maps really aren't that great and most of them are just campfests. You will still have plenty of people playing the basic maps and game as Black Ops 2 failed to take away a lot of the community, so games are plentiful as long as you stick to most of the major game modes. At this point through I wouldn't waste time on the DLC.

It's turning into MW2 a bit with the hacking at the end of the game's life, but it's not quite that bad yet. I've noticed wall hacks are def. in the game now but for the most part it hasn't effected anything that badly for me. The camping in this game is still worse than anything, I mean even Parish has turned into a campfest map which is just ridiculous.

I am def. noticing a lot of wall hacks lately, or something. Guy on Fallen last night is shooting out the window, I have Blind Eye/Assassin/dead silence, there's no portable radar or UAV up or anything. Guy is sniping then suddenly just swaps to a mchine pistol and turns and shoots me as I enter the doorway, having no way of realistically knowing I was coming. Have also watched several kill cams where I'm followed through a wall and sniped the minute I enter the doorway of a building. It's not as bad as MW2, but it's getting there.

The funniest thing is half those people with GIRL in their clantag are actually dudes just messing with you, lol.

Re: The CoD Community is PART of the problem?

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 16:00:33 GMT

The only thing the community should be blamed for is continuing to put up with subpar 60% finished crap games at launch. The games will continue to be crap as long as the fanboys/girls keep lining up at midnight to buy this crap even after being burned by the last few games. It's time for the community to demand a better product from the developer. There is no excuse for these games coming out like they do half broken causing so many issues like the PS3 freezes, etc. A game should not be released and need 500 patches to fix things within the first week or two. Especially given what we pay for these games nowadays, it's just inexcusable and the companies are just playing us.

Re: 1 hit noob tube deaths????

Lag plays a big role in it as well. I see people running around getting OHKs with all the shotguns but when I use them it's just a huge hitmarker fest for me. I can hit a guy point blank headshot with the KSG and just get hitmarker and he turns around and knifes me. Look on the kill cam and I never fired, lol. Same with the launchers, just lots of hitmarkers and no kills, yet I get consistently one shotted by them when the explosion is behind me. Basically notice it in the kill cam, on my screen I'm clear of the blast but on their screen they are direct hitting me. Thank you lag.

Re: Poor match making system!!!!

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 18 Dec 2012 03:56:19 GMT

Pretty much agree with this. I get no lag when playing Fall of Cybertron multi-player or Battlefield 3. Only the COD games give me lag problems. My internet speed is amazing and I have great upload/download and pretty low ping all the way out to the west coast(2000+ miles) and I still get mostly **** games full of lag. The fact the above guy has $10 internet is probably why he has good games. People with good connections have been getting punished since BOPS.

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 18 Dec 2012 03:54:19 GMT

Honestly the learning curve and weapon unlocks go quick enough in MW3 where it's not a big deal that you are with a bunch of higher levels and quite honestly high level means nothing. I'm working through prestige 7 right now and I am terrible in terms of my k/d so don't let high levels fool you, lol.

If you want to complain about this than go play Battlefield 3 and see the difference. There it sucks when you play higher levels since they have all their good kit unlocks and all their awesome vehicle skills unlocked so if you are a couple level 20s playing against some lvl 80-100s you get completley face-raped by tanks and jets everytime with no chance to win.

Level diferential means next to nothing in COD.

Re: Sold my Black Ops 2 today Man it feels good to stop being a Activision Puppet!

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 11 Dec 2012 00:17:20 GMT

If you are looking for another shooter and are tired of COD I would suggest Battlefield 3 or Bad Company. In terms of game mechanics and lag issues it is a far superior game on the PS3 and the destructible environments and vehicles make it a blast on multi-player. However it's not all sunshine and rainbows. While I made the switch to BF3 right after Black Ops 2 came out and have enjoyed it a lot more than MW3, it still has plenty of issues. If you don't have a clan or group of friends you can play with than you will not enjoy it. It takes awhile to find a good server to play on where the teams are balanced and you get an enjoyable game.

All too often you wind up on a squad with a bunch of idiots who play the game like it's Call of Duty, lol, which is the problem because BF3 is much more realistic and actually requires teamwork in the objective games. You can still play TDM if you want to run and gun, but the meat of the game is the objective modes. If you get on a bad squad you're going to die a lot and not be very effective in terms of your k/d or your objective score per minute, just not going to happen. This is the case 75-80% of the time if you play with PuGs and not with a clan or friends. There is also a big learning curve if you are used to COD, there is bullet drop on all weapons and you have to use some tactics to get around maps without dying.

Now when things go right and you get a good squad where everyone plays their class and role properly the game is an absolute masterpiece that blows away any COD title ever, it's not even close. The main problem is just getting a consistent group of servers/games. What I will say though is Battlefield's "Battlelog" stat tracking system is far superior to the crapfest that is ELITE in every single way, it's not even close.

Re: Why Destroy Helicopter & Pave lows? I Hate Those People

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 11 Dec 2012 00:09:26 GMT

Guess I am just used to MW2 when the air support could actually do something so I always have a Stinger for my secondary. I'm also trying to get a few gold guns so having a secondary makes me try using it instead and takes away from kills towards the gold guns so I carry the launcher instead. I honestly also love being the jack*** who destroys your Osprey after you worked your butt off to get it by camping in the corner the entire match. Not sure what it is, I just get a kick out of taking down peoples airsupport before it even gets on the map, it makes me smile knowing that some 12 year old who just camped to get that kill streak is crying to his mom because his Hind was destroyed before it could even get into the airspace.

In all seriousness though, I do get caught on maps all the time with a team that doesn't run blind eye or have it as one of their specialist perks and we get slaugtered by enemy air support so I just like to have a stinger handy in case I get on one of those real terrible TDM teams. I also like to run sleight of hand on most of my classes since I reload often so there is a chance I haven't gotten to BE yet in my specialist streak so nice to have the anti-air capability.

Re: The Art of Altercation: 4 Tips to help win a gun fight

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 24 Nov 2012 05:24:32 GMT

Forgot the best tip of all...just camp, that's pretty much what you have to do to be successful at TDM in this game or MW3 or to maintain a high k/d. *shrug*

Re: Shotguns.

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 24 Nov 2012 05:23:07 GMT

LOL, if you think Shotguns are OP in BO2 you guys would hate BF3 with all the different shotgun ammo types you can use, I headshot'd a guy the other day from 90 meters with a slug.

Re: Target finder attachment best camping tool!

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 23 Nov 2012 03:46:29 GMT

Campers became a big issue with Black Ops and MW3. I didn't notice it nearly as often with MW2. I blame the maps first of all, the maps in BOPS and MW3 were garbage for the most part and encouraged corner camping. The other big problem I think is that they made the stats public, allowed everyone to be looked up on Elite, etc. Anytime you have people's gameplay being visible online you're going to have everyone wanting to impress everyone else and looking like a champion online. Hence everyone camps to pad their k/d and impress all their 7 year old friends on the internet. Best thing they could do for these games would be to do away with Elite and letting everyone be able to see your stats in-lobby or on the game.

Re: Lag Compensation

donotreply@activision.com — Fri, 23 Nov 2012 03:40:15 GMT

This is the main reason I waited and didn't buy Black Ops 2. I had the same issue on MW3. I have tested my internet out to 2000+ miles from my house and the highest my ping ever hit was 60ms. I would go 25-5 one game, then turn around and go 6-18 the next, it was next to impossible to play consistently or have a stretch of good games w/o having some absolutely god awful games. Glad that I didn't waste $60 on this broken game.

Re: The honest truth (wall of text, this will get flamed but oh well).

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 22 Nov 2012 22:38:08 GMT

My suggestion would be to try Battlefield 3, there's a bit of a learning curve but for objective game play it is far superior to COD. I will never buy another COD game after getting used to BF3, it's a much more enjoyable experience. I have about 14 hours on BF3 and it's been a better experience than any of the 200+ horus I have on COD.

Re: Lag Compensation Explained (Wall of Text)

donotreply@activision.com — Thu, 22 Nov 2012 22:29:56 GMT

This game drove me to finally try BF3 and I am never coming back to Call of Duty. The difference with the dedicated servers is night and day and yes, there is still a little bit of lag, but if you have a good connection you are not penalized like you are in COD, only the players with Walmart internet have bad experiences. While BF3 takes a ton of getting used to given the different playstyle it is so enjoyable to actually play a game with almost no lag issues and be able to actually be "good" at a game and not at the mercy of the crappy software ruining everything.

Re: Why is Activision allowed to sell us an unfinished, non-working product?

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 17 Nov 2012 01:06:22 GMT

I didn't pre-order or fall for the BS this time around. I still feel slighted from MW3 and I know it's a different company, but the fact that they made us shell out $50 for ELITE at the start of the year and it still is not working as it was intended to at launch and the fact they let it be broken all year and only threw in some new bells and whistles just before the launch of BOPSII told me that it would probably be another screw job with this game release so I just decided to stay away. Sadly there are too many COD fanboys who just can't resist blowing their wad over this game and are lined up every release at midnight to get suckered again and will blindly defend the game over and over. Until players stop spending their money on these 75% finished games the game companies will continue to screw you. They make their money at release and then patch as they go, never really fixing the big issues because they've made thier profit and don't care.

Well you might get lucky and get some double weapon xp, or a free prestige token, lol.

So glad I didn't buy this game, was actually at Gamestop yesterday to pick up a new dual shock and the amount of people bringing BOPS2 back to trade in already was staggering, lol.
