As for lag comp/host disadvantage. i have a decent connection.(20Mbps) my computer runs fine, streaming moves run great. but when i play MW3 i get a 3 bar and it seems liek all my bullets do 10-20% the damage they should. now i am not the best player and i know i dont that the best accuracy. but i do know when i should get a kill and when people "lunge" through my bullets or it shows them knfing me before i even start shoting the weapon. the kill cams never show the same thing as what i see on my screen even the final kill cam is different when i get the final kill. am i alone or this happen to other people. i have called my isp to see wherer the problem might lay in my connectino and Xbox to set my network up to allow prober server connections but it still seems messed up. would a 20 Mbps make the lag comp "punish" me more that others or is that the average people here have?

@G IH A IN ID II I have no problem with you guys taking away the ext mags glitch and nerfing the striker. I just don't get why you made the ksg and usas have 9 pellets as standard now but did not buff the spas and aa12 to 12 pellets, therefore making them weaker up close than they were before with damage and ext. mags.

Why not add 3 pellets to the spas and model as well. I mean you added 3 to the usag and ksg, they now have more pellets than these pump / lever-action shotguns that need constant ohks. 3 More is still one less than with extended mags now on ps3. Did your stats show the model and spas being OP with the extra pellets and damage? Is having a constant / good shotgun OP now?

Besides can the Gun balance team tell me why I should use the cm901 or ak47 above the acr, which fires faster, is much, much easier to control and deals more damage on range (30 to 25 I believe). How is that balance? The 49 to 45 damage advantage these two have, means next to nothing as damaged players will die anyway in two hits to the acr too. The longer 3 hit kill range is next to insignificant when it's that much easier to get hits there with the acr that always keeps 30 damage, while again firing slightly faster and having little to no recoil. What about buffing these guns, especially the ak47 since that's the best known ar worldwide (with the m16), yet it's an insignificant gun in this game..

Also does the gun balance team know that LMGs literally never get used? They need more power and no damage drop off. The aug and RPD got used in mw2, because they could actually compete...

I'll pass along all comments to the weapon balancing team. As I said when I first started posting here, however, discussing weapon balance is a topic I personally would like to avoid chiming in on if possible. It's such a subjective topic that I'd rather not be drawn down into the rabbit hole of opinions . You have my word that the team responsible read your comments and analyze statistics from every kill made by every weapon in the game.

Can you reimplement what was done in MW2 and let pistols call in things like UAVs faster?  The decrease in pistol secondaries may come from there being no benefits to using them.  Also, why is the .44 Magnum a three hit kill even in close quarters?
