It doesn't seem like anything drastically different from blackops, i mean you could still do a lot of weapon specific upgrades, so now it's just more weapon upgrades with a levelling meter?

I must say i got a bucketload of play time out of black ops but i'm still on the fence for this one..I am a fan of the arcadey run and gun just get in and shoot the s*** type of gameplay though.

I'm going to buy this game, I'm going to play this game and I'm going to hate the s*** out of this game...

I wouldn't be a true FPSer if I didn't hate on CoD while secretly playing it...

What can I say, it's a guilty pleasure of mine.

I've never played COD multiplayer however have loved almost all the single player stuff. COD 1,2 and 4 were fantastic single player. I expect the same from this new one.

If I get this, it'll probably just be for the single player. I much prefer Battlefield's multiplayer to CoD's. I usually enjoy the CoD campaigns though.

CoD has never had much recoil. Be to much for the consoles.

lol. You skipped COD MW2 and Blops which most people agree is where the series started going downhill. I expect that pattern to continue.

Yeah, I might get this when (if?) it goes cheap on Steam in a sale or something, I enjoyed the single player in MW1 and MW2, they're stupid and over the top, but fun. Like the video game equivalent of a Michael Bay film.

What people seem to love about this franchise is the basic but very solid shooter concepts. Something that has been around since Counter Strike, but clearly built upon from Counter Strike and built upon further with each new installment of CoD. With each installment that comes is going to be a lesser and lesser degree of improvement because they are still working around that basic model. Such is the reason for dislike of the multiplayer element of these games, and in no small part on account of my loyalty and great respect for the game that is Counter Strike.

Rumps, the funny thing is BF3 has the exact same 'consoley achievementy levelling crap' except worse.

Planes and choppers are virtually useless until you get some unlocks in them, which is hard as hell at the best of times.

As much as I love BF3, I find the maps with limited vehicals and slightly more limited map more fun. 1 or 2 tanks/jeeps is ok but soon as you get into a full fledged wide open map I become lost and just wander around hoping to find someone and then either getting snipped from ages away or killed by some bulls*** "I can see you through a wall and got a headshot with 1 bullet" crap.

That's why you need to stick with your squad. It is a team based game after all.

I swear this franchise spends like 10% of it's budget on making skins and stuff and 90% on marketing for each release.. anyone seen MW3 all over the green V cans recently? gimme a break.

Bulls***, you would be a true FPSer if you didn't buy it because you realised it's the same f*****g game with a few more weapons and other little things.. it's an expansion. It's really frustrating to watch them release more content which looks exactly the same and be able to pass it off as a new game and people still buy it which lets them get away with it.

CoD 1 was awesome, CoD 2 was s***, CoD 3 was s***... MW was great, mw2... yer we all know, blackops... yer we all know.. this? more of the same.

2/6 for me = failure of a series.

Raider - I play my BF3 for serious FPS, but regardless of how "failed" or samey the last few games have been, they still have something you can't get from BF.

It's more of an old school deathmatch UT style, rather than the structured, teamfighting of BF.

Not to mention I still think the gunplay feels great. Not realistic in any way, but it FEELS good.

Hell, even in MW2 it felt pretty good. I'm having worse issues with rego in BF3 than I was in any of the MW series -_- Stupid ass client side rego...

Don't know why people say that every COD game is the same and then run off to BF3. BF3 is just about an expansion pack to Bad Company 2, all they've done is added jets. It's not even wide and open as the previous battlefield games.

You're delusional. The gameplay might not be too dissimilar, but unlike what has occurred with Call of Duty franchise, there has been some massive improvements in the tech.

That said, I do disagree with the comments that MW3 amounts to an expansion pack. Although the core game and tech is staying much the same it really does seem like IW and Sledgehammer are adding enough new tweaks and improvements to other areas that make it more than just an expansion.
