When will COD go into free-fall?

Maybe next gen?

It's weird how the CoD series works. MW3 is absolutely HORRIBLE so you would think that this would cause people to give up on the CoD series completely, but actually all it does is make people look forward to the next one and build hype for the sequel. Its ridiculous.

And I fully admit I'm in this boat, I despise MW3 but I'm really looking forward to Black Ops 2. In part because Treyarch's developers are actually active in the community and pay attention to what the fans want.

MW3 is the best COD yet dude and i've been playing since COD 2. What's not good about it? It's amazing in almost every way. The maps are the most interesting and complex yet. The weapons are very balanced and most of the annoying shit in previous COD games are gone (except for the dual fmgs of course). Also the perks and killstreaks are by far the best yet. I can't play previous CODs anymore cause I'm so used to the amazing stalker perk!

People say COD 4 was the best COD but that is total BS. The guns were no where near as balanced. The frags were way too powerful making some maps such as 'wet works' unplayable. Some of the perks were total ass like that martyrdom crap. Black Ops had crap like second chance and ghost. At least the assassin perk tier in MW3 has some other great perks to rival assassin unlike ghost in black ops.

 

 

- Deathstreaks - Why the hell are they back from MW2? They don't actually help bad players, they just piss off good players. Seriously and why is there dead man's hand? How is it a good idea to have bitches go Al Queda on me with C4 when I kill them?

- You may like the maps, but it's almost unanimous that they're some of the worst in the series. 

- Killstreak spam more than ever, especially thanks to the support killstreaks. And all the UAV spam forces everyone to wear assassin. 

- The guns aren't even remotely balanced. Akimbo machine pistols dominate secondaries, the shotguns are absolute trash, Sniping is way overpowered (everyone and their mother can quickscope), and the Type 95 is ridiculously overpowered. 

- The knifing system is brutal. I can't tell you how many times I've shotgunned kids and get a hitmarker and they come up and knife me. 

- Lag compensation. It's mean to make the game fair by putting artificial lag on people with great connection to the host, but all it does is either put people half a second ahead or half a second behind in the game. It's the worst idea ever, MW2 actually had better connections than MW3. 

 

My only good points about this game are the Specialist Killstreaks which are awesome, and the Kill Confirmed game mode. Everything else about it is just MW2 all over again, or in some cases worse. 

And CoD4 is easily the best dude. Sniping is perfect (not overpowered but also not underpowered), the maps are some of the best in the entire series, the perks are completely balanced (stopping power, juggernaut and UAV jammer perfectly rival each other) and there's no killstreak spam. Only downsides are the M16 is overpowered, and grenades (martyrdom and frag x3).
