Re: 60 Kill Live Commentary From Capt Skillzy

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 04:29:27 GMT

Most I've been able to get in domination is 40something... 44 I think, or maybe it was 48. I was using support streaks AUAV, stealth bomber and juggernaut. I think to get much past that I'd have to use assault steaks and unfortunately I've never been super consistent with getting 5-7+ streaks. Or perhaps just be up against a team that consists of really horrible players.

I'm so sick of getting killed by guns, please nerf all guns so that they shoot puffy soft marshmallows.

You clear have no understanding what so ever of how this game works. Somebody in the game lobby actually hosts the game. There are no dedicated servers hosting the games.

I'll buy the next cod but only because it's being made by treyarch. I'm nearly on 10th prestige on MW3 and to be honest I have not enjoyed this game due to the many faults and problems which have not and will not be fixed.

Why do people do this. Come here saying they have not enjoyed this game yet have days and days of play time. Do you often sit around doing something repeatedly that you do not enjoy? Honestly you might want to seek some professional help.

TBH to fix Infected it would need to be the little kids being heard. It seems that a high percentage of the 15 and under crowd migrated to Infected. Can't even join an infected lobby without hearing a bunch of kids rambling nonstop or just making noise.

Well over 4 days of playtime so far and I have yet to see anything unusual that appeared to be hacks. Like people have pointed out a lot of the videos on youtube are from the PC. People have also been caught pawning off games played offline on modded consoles as being online, even though they weren't. I'm going to guess that if it were going on I would have run across it by now, or some other well known member of these forums with days and days of play time would have run across it. But none of us have... so what does that tell you...

no dedicated servers because IW are money hungry, they just made a billion dollars by making the worst game their companies ever released. As long as mindless fanboys keep buying and playing this game they have no reason to invest any extra time or money for their customers.

Congratulations to all the fanboys that are contributing to the degradation of a once great franchise...

Your ignorance is astounding. It has little to do with the money and more to do with the fact that it would be virtually impossible for them to accomplish. People like you do not seem to realize that they would need literally tens of thousands of servers spread across the globe to support a game this large. I'm not sure why people seem to think they can just rent one rack of servers somewhere and be done with it, it's not that simple.

Re: Semtex nerfed?!

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 12:15:09 GMT

I doubt it was nerfed any more than it was when the game was released. The grenades in this game were a bit too weak from day one, nothing has changed.

Re: Why Assault Rifles and SMGs are overpowered

Assault Rifles are in general the most powerful class of weapon in this game. They have the range of a sniper rifle, automatic fire, high damage, large magazines and minimal recoil. I see people complaining about the striker and the akimbo machine pistols, but any competent assault rifle user can just snipe them from outside their range without even getting scratched. The ACR in particular is ridiculously overpowered because it has literally zero recoil and automatic fire with absurd damage. So many people run around with the ACR getting kills without even knowing what they are doing because you can just point and shoot and whatever is in front of it will die.

SMGs are much the same but at least have appropriately lower range and higher recoil in exchange for faster fire. The problem is their damage is generally way too high. I can take the P90 with scavenger pro, steady aim and extended mags and pretty much run around with the fire button held down and come out positive, I don't even have to try.

What most assault rifles need to balance them: shorter range, lower rate of fire, higher recoil. Some already more balanced assault rifles like the Scar L should probably have their damage boosted to keep them from being useless.

SMGs on the other hand need only a slight range decrease and lower damage to make up for their incredibly fast rate of fire.

I'm so tired of the 'has the range of a sniper' argument. Every gun in the game has a range of from one side of the map to the other...period. The only thing that changes is damage based on range, and guess what the sniper rifles have no damage drop. So no matter how you look at this part of your argument, you're wrong.

Regarding shotguns vs AR's and the AR player being able to kill the shotgun player while outside of the shotgun players effective range. No duh, the shotgun player is required to stick to close quarters fights and SHOULD lose in a firefight against an AR player that is outside of his weapons effective range. What do you expect? For shotguns to be able to be super deadly at 100 yards? Don't be silly.

"So many people run around with the ACR getting kills without even knowing what they are doing because you can just point and shoot and whatever is in front of it will die."

Wow really? Because that is true for ANY of the guns. Imagine that you point at somebody and start shooting and they die? What do you expect to happen?

You're entire argument is completely silly.

You forgot to mention pretty much needing to mute every player that has a mic plugged in because there is a 99% chance it's some <15 year old mouth breather that is going to yap about something stupid the entire game.

Excellent point regarding your highest kill streak. A lot of players have a kill streak reward set up that they are not likely to get because they don't want people to think they are a noob. Who cares what others think: know your strengths and weaknesses.

I know somebody that does that. In BO he always set a bunch of high rewards, MW3 he would run assault doing the same thing. The result is that he rarely gets ANY kill streak rewards. I tried to explain it to him that he's better off with the lower rewards that he can actually get almost every game but he refused to change it up.

Personally that's why I like the support streaks. People can call it cheap all they want but while I -am- decent player that will always run a 1.5-1.8:1 ratio in TDM, I have -never- been a long streak type player. I tend to get 1-5 kills tops before I die, sometimes more but not too often. Support lets me keep building towards something and I don't mind that most of them aren't 'deadly' rewards.

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 11:53:21 GMT

My impression of the game mode is that it's somewhat interesting, but would get dull quickly. Also it seems that you basically just have to mute everybody that has a mic plugged in as it's infested with underage mouth breathers yapping nonstop into their mics the entire game. Seems the only crowd that will be entertained by this game mode for very long are the 15 and under crowd.

The only people that ever get any money out of a class action cases are the attorneys. Each platintiff would end up with a check for like 10 bucks while the attorneys make off with millions.

So you played this game enough to get to 10th even though you say it's horrible. You've also cried about how you're leaving MW3 multiple times yet still kept playing it. You probably will still keep playing it and be here in another month for another post about how you're quitting again. Nobody cares, either quit or don't... at this point it's like the little boy that cried wolf.

I'm getting more and more annoyed with those who don't play the objective, so I'm looking for about 5 players who would like to frequently play domination on XBL. I'm a decent player, if you want to see who I am before actually adding me, look on youtube under Riley3O4, if not just add me up. I do play the objective, and manage to keep my KDR at a reasonable level. I try and not camp unless the other team is OR unless it's in time of defending the objective. let me know! Riley304 on XBL.

I've been playing a lot of Domination lately, and play for the objective. I typically want a team that is ok with just 2 capping and defending those. Unless the other team is just really that bad in which case 3 capping is ok I guess. I also like to run between those two with a SMG and defend/recapture as needed.. I'll add you in a bit.

I run and gun and have a 1.8 dealing with the lag comp. mw2 was a 3.1 run and gun. There is a problem and you know it you just don't want to be spanked around like you use to.

So... this name is different from the OP name yet you are acting like you are the OP. Two accounts? Is that against the rules? Regardless... I'll read and watch anything I want that is posted on these forums and there is absolutely nothing you can do to stop that. I have the same performance in MW1, WaW, MW2, BO and this game... so your assumptions that going back to the old method hurting my performance is clearly just you lashing out in a very silly fashion. And either way you can clearly see the tracers -not- hitting the target. You can claim they hit all day long, but you can slow down the video and see the tracers missing on all but the last shot.

How about you clowns stop making excuses and just admit you aren't as awesome as you think you are?

Pay close attention and you'll see that his first several shots were mis-aimed and MISSED.

OP if you were actually suffering from lag there would have been a delay between the last shot (the only one that actually hit) and the +50 popping up, but there wasn't. OP you need to learn to aim and stop blaming the game for your lack of skill.

Re: So Are the FMGs Going To Be Nerfed or Not?

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 11:23:41 GMT

I use the akimbo machine pistols, mostly because I basically have to if I want to remain competitive at close range. Any time I'm going to be in tight areas where the enemy will likely be within their effective range, I whip them out. I think having akimbo machine pistols was just a bad idea...period. I'm sure when they were designing the game it seemed like a good idea on paper, but in practice it's not. All it does is gives somebody something about as good as a shotgun as a secondary without even having to use their red perk slot to get it. Akimbo just needs to be done away with on machine pistols. If they wanted to have akimbo anything (other than regular pistols) then it should have been SMG's. At least then somebody would have to use overkill if they wanted to have more than just a very close range weapon.
