Strike Packages Behind the Scenes Video

A few things I want to point out.

We get to see a handful weapons in use in this video including the Mk14.

We also get to see some of the camos.

Also, what is up with the 4 Pointstreak rewards slots? There seems to be some surprises up IW/SH's sleeves.

Re: [OFFICIAL] Strike Packages Behind the Scenes Video

Finally. I get to see my baby (Mk14) in action!

Overall, it's nice to get rewards for objective pursuits n all, but it's still not perfect. People are still going to farm kill, no matter what strike package is being used.

  Think about this way.
  
  At least we're finally getting rewarded for playing the objective.
  
  I too don't see ALL players playing the objective but it will be a significant increase compared to previous COD games.

Two things jumped out at me...

1. You can have more than two GL rounds.
2. Toobs are way weaker than in the past.

      Keep in mind that is the XM-25 which fires 25mm grenades. M203/M320's fire 40mm grenades. So it makes sense that you get more with the XM-25, but they are less powerful.

        Think it is... there's another clip of it later and it's got 9 rounds... I'm guessing it starts with 10 rounds...
        
        ... that's a lot of tube rounds.

        But like Rick said they seem to be quite a bit less powerful than your typical 40mm grenades.

        True... but one will kill you in HC...
        
        That weapon will be a pain in the arse methinks.

        Good point. The only way it won't be a huge pain in HC is if the blast radius isn't too big.

        Also, let's not forget the XM25 isn't unlocked until Level 52 & the M320 GLM isn't unlocked until Level 64.
        
        I'm not too sure when the M203 grenade launcher attachment get's unlocked though. In MW2, it was the first attachment to unlock, but in MW3 via the weapon levelling system, I'm not too sure when you unlock it.
        
        A number of players who went to COD XP have said that tubes have been balanced so I'm sticking to their word.

        Same here, my favourite Assault Rifle in COD4.
        
        If it's the same default class from the game's launch, I'll be using that weapon especially with the PP90 as my secondary in my first match.

    Check... but with the fact that they don't reset upon death...
    
    ... objective games are going to be proliferated by streaks.
    
    The player can just keep unlocking them...

  Yea this has me confused beyond all hell. Unfortunately, I don't have time to really analyze the different reward types that show up or why there is always 4 slots. Hopefully I'll have some time tomorrow.

    I think the 4 slots is just to aid in cycling through the streaks since you can now choose which one to activate.

      Yea that's entirely possible, but what happens if you decide not to use any of your streaks and get more than 4? I feel like a counter next to the icon showing how many of them you have would have been cleaner if that's the case since the whole point is information at a glance.
      
      We'll see. I'm definitely excited for this game though. Good thing I have enough work to keep me busy. haha

Re: Strike Packages Behind the Scenes Video

Is it just me or do acog sights look more usable in MW3? They are cosntantly showing footage of it being used, not to mention it looks like there isn't as much increased sway or recoil this time around.
