Ok, I was just thinking of something. Dee was playing campaign again after he gave it up because the NYC levels were shit (like I said in my review). When he got to the airplane level, all of a sudden he was like, "jcap, holy shit !!!! . . . [this level] was syk dope." I thought this level was pretty awesome too, and it basically puts all of the events of MW3 into motion. Essentially, it was the beginning of the game. So, then I thought, wouldn't this have been the proper way to start the game?

Like, if it was me who was directing this game, I probably would have started the game with a prologue similar to the first game (Crew Expendable). The prologue would be "Turbulence." Since the character you are playing as dies at the end of the mission, I personally think it would have been the perfect way to start the game. Then I would have followed the airplane level with the current opening sequence, where it shows the main character being brought to the doctor, followed by "Persona Non Grata" (the Africa level), then followed by "Back on the Grid."

Most importantly, the NYC levels are nowhere to be found, because they are the most asinine bullshit in the game. Also, it would reduce the amount of broken up story telling.

Shit was WACK.
I won't be playing multiplayer. I like cod for its campaign.

Brother bought it. Multiplayer is literally the same as MW2. Returning tomorrow.

I'm in the tags!
...no seriously, game is a fucking bust because I feel like I'm playing the same thing unless I have all new animations to look at (which I don't).

Oh wait, it IS the same thing either way! Yeah, I'm passing up on this. I played it at a friends house and I honestly couldn't discern much difference from MW2 aside from the few little additions like the different killstreak packages or whatever.

It honestly is the same thing:

I hear MP is substantially less retarded than MW2 though.

[Warsaw]

Nope.avi

It is still Call of Duty: UMP Warfare 2.

I feel like I'm playing the same thing unless I have all new animations

ouch.. sorry to hear visual flare is what sells a game for you.



I hear this game is having terrible user reviews... any idea what that's all about?

Perhaps the general populace is finally waking up to the notion that these games are just the same shit copy-pasted every year with none of the flaws, either gameplay or engine wise fixed.

I really don't understand why it's so hard for COD developers to not have that one insanely overpowered gun in their game. CoD 4 had the M16, WaW had the MP40, MW2 had the UMP, Blops had the FAMAS. What is it this time?

Speaking of visuals, the only difference I noticed from MW2 was that the smoke trail from RPG rounds doesn't look like a long string of 2D sprites and actually looks somewhat like smoke. I'm something of a stickler for details, and if that's the only tangible thing I noticed, then they were lying out their ass with the whole "this engine is a Porsche" gig.
