Archbaron Larry Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 [quote name='Comrade TentaSparkle' timestamp='1353787859' post='6076912'] Finished the Campaign. Decent story mode. Amazing by CoD standards. Also, I'm starting to think that Treyarch likes animating people getting shot in the head a little [i]too [/i]much. Like, seriously. [/quote] The story is pretty good, although I'm only on the fourth or fifth mission, though. I like how they added different outcomes for missions and customizable loadouts in Campaign to change things up a bit. Are the Strikeforce missions mandatory? After I played the first one I really don't want to do another one. Ever again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makο Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 I actually enjoy the strikeforce missions. Granted, they are not the best, but it's a nice way to change things up. You can beat each one with one soldier, so if you just want the Trophy's/Achievements/Whatever, play it like a normal missions, popping out into the overview mode to give orders occasionally. I beat the one where I had to rescue the girl...AS the girl. Everyone else died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically played as the attacking unit from the first mission, but on a different map. Speaking of those maps, are the strikeforce missions actual Multiplayer levels?

[/quote] Yes. Anyway, I'm still in love with the S12. I even Prestiged it. Now, I can have my clan tag on it. ...It wouldn't have been worth it if I hadn't been able to unlock Long Barrel and Laser Sight within 20 minutes. On a side note, my MW3 clantag, after CRUX, was Holo, which is a reference to Spice and Wolf. But for some reason, it won't let me do that. I can do H, Ho, Hol, but one more O and NOPE. Can't even do Horo. As a result, my clantag is HOL0. On Blops 2, it looks identical, but still. WHY? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dismal Euphony Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 [i]Prepare yourselves because this post is going to be approximately 97% bitching and complaining.[/i] Like most Call of Duty games, I don't complain TOO much because I typically get the game as a birthday gift from my brothers, but then again I complain a lot when I'm actually playing the game. There's A LOT of things about this game that I really like, but I feel like I've been overall more disappointed than pleased with every CoD since CoD4. As you've probably already assumed, I'm going to b**** about the online play. Why? Because the past two CoD games have been atrocious, and this one is starting to give me the feeling that it's not going to be any better. There's just so many WTF elements in this game that it's borderline unplayable for me. [b]inb4you'rebadathegamestopcrying [/b]my k/d in CoD4, MW2 were >3.00, and every game since has been 2.00 or higher (except Black Ops cause RPGs are fun, lol.) [b]1.[/b] LAG. COMPENSATION. I understand where they're coming from with this; I really do. I understand trying to "level the playing field" for players that aren't graced with a strong, stable internet connection, but I just DO NOT AGREE WITH IT. It's annoying that I have to suffer 5 - 6 deaths a game (often while on killstreaks or "scorestreaks") because they're compensating a TYPICALLY SHITTY player who has a weak internet connection. It's like Obamacare for Call of Duty. "Oh, you don't have reliable internet? Here you go! Have 12 kills! For free! No skill required!" I'm sorry, but in this day and age, if your internet is too weak to handle a Call of Duty game, you deserve to go 3 - 18 every game, much like you probably did in the early CoDs. I do not appreciate dying 5 - 6 times by your hands because Treyarch feels bad for your 3G-esque internet connection. [b]2.[/b] The maps. DEAR LORD, these maps are terrible. Once again, I understand where Treyarch was trying go with these maps. They added more flanking routes and tight corners to try and allow for more playing possibilities, but really now... They needed to draw the line somewhere. You can't go anywhere, stand anywhere, reload anywhere, or do ANYTHING anywhere without someone above you or next to you, or behind you. THE FLANKING ROUTES HAVE FLANKING ROUTES. I should not be getting flanked while trying to flank someone who is flanking someone else's flank route. It's just a bit ridiculous. Not to mention the fact that they seemed to have INTENSIFIED head glitching. Come on now, people. This has been an issue for like SIX FREAKING GAMES NOW. When are you going to decide, "Okay. That's enough. Fix head glitching." We've been complaining for probably over a half-decade now... [b]3. [/b]The guns. Albeit, they're not as bad as MW3 and I might even go so far as to say they're better than Black Ops, but this doesn't mean they're good. One of my least favorite arguments ever is the argument to "balance/nerf" guns in a game. Everyone complained that guns in CoD4 and MW2 were "overpowered", but answer me this: if EVERY SINGLE GUN is overpowered, how is that not balanced? If EVERYONE is using an overpowered gun, how is that not fair? If you get killed by a Stopping Power Scar-H while you, yourself, are using a Stopping Power Tar-21 (which is JUST as strong), how is that unfair? Maybe you just need to work on your reflexes and gun skills. It's truly bothersome that every game SINCE MW2 is basically a battle of spraying 30 rounds hoping that you manage to hit your enemy with 21 rounds before he hits you with 21 rounds. These past three games just seem to cater to lesser players and leave the better players scratching their head. [b]4.[/b] The spawns. If you've played the game, I don't even need to explain this. They're stupid. They're random. They always seem to spawn in your back pocket. [b]tl;dr version:[/b] [b]1. Fix the lag. Rewarding people with lesser internet is unfair.[/b] [b]2. The maps are clustered, crowded, and hard to adapt to--too many nooks and crannies. Also, head-glitching.[/b] [b]3. Guns have been replaced with children's toys for the past 3 years.[/b] [b]4. f*** the spawns.[/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makο Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 1. This, I can agree with. 2. Only maps I have a REAL problem with would be Cargo, Drone, and Raid. But then again, I'm a Shotgunner, and these maps have long-range Hot Zones, so... 3. ...don't know what to say about this. 4. Agreed completely. But then again, creating a GOOD spawning system probably isn't easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dismal Euphony Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 All of the maps have long range hotzones, really. That zone is really easy to avoid on Raid. Raid is actually one of my favorite maps to date. It's probably the only one that doesn't anger me. Spawn systems aren't really hard... They were fine in earlier games. But when team deathmatch has free for all-esque spawns, I tend to get a little pissed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joex486 Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 I'd like to see some people's opinions on some of the guns and attachments for multiplayer- 1: Skorpion EVO- I've seen a lot of comments about how good the SMG's are. They don't mention this one. I do admit that its recoil is huge, and its range not as good as the others, but I still do very well with it. 2: KSG- I love the range on this weapon, but the lack of spread causes me to miss many kills that I had the potential to get if I was more accurate. I feel like this does have large potential in the hands of someone who actually can use it accurately. 3: Target Finder- I personally love to use this on LMG's, but I've also been the victim of a target finder countless times. 4: Millimeter Scanner- Because it's only unlocked at the highest levels and I like to prestige my weapons, I haven't really used it. Is it good? 5: Full Metal Jacket- Its description states that it only inflicts extra damage to enemy scorestreaks, but the overall damage on the weapon's stats increases and I have seen people who claim it increases damage against players as well. Is that true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
