Downturn - in ANY gamemode is still the worst map EVER! wherever possible I avoid it even to the point of dashboarding/quitting the lobby to avoid it. Oasis looks great but is also quite a difficult map to play too.
However I have not played this game much over the past month due to the last lot of DLC content was worthless and pointless to me. The missions took less than 10 mins to complete, Face Off - althougfh so much better 3v3 - get boring very quickly with limited game modes AND under-populated maps - they would be SO MUCH MORE useful if they were added to Team Tactical at the very least (more game modes and more players too!!). Therefore the last lot of DLC only gave me Oasis that was of any real use BUT that was also quite difficult to play. Especially with all the Lag/synch issues and matchmaking that despite the game being out for this long has STILL NOT been resolved.
I am a UK based player with a very limited choice of internet. I live in the countryside where internet connection is poor. I dream of 8meg let alone the super fast options as that would more than double my speed! I cannot get quicker internet connection due to the area I live! Howverer I do not feel that I have any advantage over others (I don't want any advantage either) and I still suffer akll the BS deaths, lose gunfights that there is no-way I should (PP90M1 with RF and ext mags shooting at close range using nearly an entire mag doesn't always kill - people can run through all these bullets and knife me, have time to turn around and shoot me with lesser fire rate weapons from all classes, shoot me behind corners and walls (arcing bullets?) etc etc etc.
It is bad enough trying to play the game (especially Domination - my favourite game mode) with all the Stealth Bombers that really should NOT be in the support package but haven't to put up with all the BS deaths too is a JOKE. I am honest enough to admit when I lose a gunfight fairly but this is ridiculous! My entire clan also feel this way too and now hardly plkay a game we all love.
BF3 (or any of the previous CoD titles that are still playable online without all the hackers etc) do NOT have all these problems so why does MW3 still?
I will say that I love the overall looks of all the DLC maps so far and hope they continue but I like trhe majority of COD fans are really only interested in FULL MP maps (not missions and 'Face Off' limited/restricted maps - I am also fed up with being asked to boost in these and having the oppostion rage quit everytime I/we get a lead!
I am so looking forward to Black Ops 2 as I am sure they will NOT have all these issues as they are so much better at listening to their community and do not have 'too many cooks' I understand why IW needed to team up with others but it has obviously NOT worked!
