    So, duders. As alot of you know, Blops is pretty shit. I'm not gonna get in much why, but there's one thing i would like to focus on today. MP.

    The Multiplayer in this game is so stale. The reason i'm writing this is why CoD has turned from glory to pure ''Ok, its this time of the year,new CoD is out'' and you buy it and you feel disappointed. CoD has gone from a shining masterpiece to a shitty multiplayer with campers. I'm gonna play Battlefield multiplayer instead. Screw CoD's multiplayer.

    Anyone agree?

    lol, u mad?


    No, but seriously, CoD's multiplayer is still good, everyone's just bored of it. I felt like BLOPS, more than any other CoD, battled the camping problem.

    yea I still think its fun, but only by myself.  I'd rather play Battlefield with my friends where I can actually assist them in different ways.  Not to mention in CoD everything starts to feel the same after awhile (stale as you said)  while in Battlefield bad company 2 every game can play out differently.

    I bought it, played the single player campaign then traded it in for Pokemon White.

    Best move I've ever made.

    I don't know as much as it may be the equal of junk food it's still fun to play and when you get together with your friends that you don't have time to  hang with in person or live far away from its a fun time. Me and my friends are ok players winning are good share of games but we got stream rolled a few times by a heavy camping team or a well formed team and it was still fun when your with friends.

    People can dislike CoD all they want but it's annoying how there's a post every single day about how it's garbage. The last CoD came out nearly six months ago and here we are with yet another hate post. And every one says basically the same thing, "DUURR COD SUX!!!!! I'M GONNA GO PLAY BATTLE FIELD DUURR!!!" We get it already, just keep it to yourselves.

    Call of Duty is some bullshit. I hate how the developers gloat over gouging DLC prices and still sell it like crazy. I hate how it comes out every damn year and hasn't changed since the first Modern Warfare. I hate all the players: the clans that ruin everyone's fun and the newbies who fuck up the spread. I hate Bobby Kotick, and Zampella and West. I hate the cheaters, the spawn algorithms, the overpowered guns you can only get at the high levels. Mostly though, I hate myself for buying it.

    You're just over a year behind me. I realized MW2 was an expansion pack for Cod 4, just like WaW and Blops. Not worth buying them again. After what happened to IW and how Activision makes games in general has lead to me deciding to not buy Activision games new anymore.

    Without giving any real reasons.  Here was the original post, paraphrased:


    COD is crap.  But in particular, I want to talk about how the Multiplayer is crap.  The multiplayer is stale and sucks.  The end.

    Now I don't even play BLOPS really, mostly I'm just around when it gets played.

    I mean, I can get on board with the fact that the COD franchise is being milked to death.  But if you're going to say something sucks, at least give some decent reasons.

    You can "not" like a game that doesn't suddenly mean the game is shit. Regardless of personal feelings COD is a well-produced series nothing about the game is "shit" the graphics and gameplay have seen improvements with every iteration so yea if you wanna say "Hey I don't Like this" cool but that doesn't make it shit.

     but Yea fucking Bored as shit of COD cannot wait for BF3.

    It sucks for BLOPs, because I felt it was a strong step up from MW/MW2, a lot of people gripe over how bad MW2 gotten, but they forgot that half of the team left during that game's cycle, so it was very unlikely it was gonna get patched anytime soon.


    I like the customizing options and I like some of the tweaks they made to multiplayer, it seems people are more pissed at the business side than the actual technical side, but what gamer gives a flying fuck what is going on at Activision or any other publisher's  offices when they step into their local retailer or order online when they purchase a game?

    I don't really see the point of this thread if you're not going to specifically tell us why the multiplayer is bad. The only thing even remotely close to an actual reason is the part about campers, and if that's entirely what you're basing your hate of CoD off of, Battlefield is a terrible alternative. The rest of this post basically boils down to "it's shitty because it's shitty". Whether it was your intention or not, it seems like you posted this mostly because you want validation (or because you just be trollin'). If that's the case, take a look at almost any thread or news story on this site (or the entire internet for that matter) regarding CoD and you will see that there are plenty of other people out there that hate it too! I'm all for threads bitching about games, but don't beat around the bush with nonspecifics. You dislike CoD for a reason, so tell us how you really feel!

    I've never been a huge fan of the multiplayer experience in the CoD games, with 3 and World at War being the exceptions (WaW earns major points for not having any goddamn helicopters, leading to far less spawn kills.) Always been more of a Battlefield guy. CoD has been hopelessly broken and unbalanced for a little while now. Anybody here seen the 501/8 KDR video on YouTube? It's absurd that a game can release in that state in 2010.

    I think Blops is the best CoD since 4 and I enjoy the shit out of it but the next game needs a major overall. If IW/Treyarch don't revamp the gameplay mechanics and a modern graphics engine I think I'm done. CoD can't keep going status quo while their are games out there that look like Crysis 2 and Battlefield 3 out there.

    As someone who loves Battlefield far, far more than Blops, what are you talking about? Have I been playing the Recon class in Bad Company 2 wrong this whole time? There are some damn good camping spots in BC 1/2. Hell, there's been pretty serious camping since BF1942.

    Because it had an enganging stoyline with memorable characters that you cared about, set pieces that were inrcedibly well done and spectacular in scope in a way that had never been done before and in some cases shocking e.g the player character getting caught in a fucking nuke.

    Oh and the multiplayer had stunning customization options which was as unheard of in popular multiplayer shooters before this point, the maps were well made and it introduced the perk system into games which regardless of the fact its been bastardized by almost every shooter since was still an amazing innovation.

    So thats why it was special. Mkay?

    I never stay playing call of duty games mostly because i don't enjoy killstreaks.   Otherwise it's a pretty solid multiplayer shooter.  but i find myself enjoying class based multiplayer shooters like Battlefield and TF2.

    CoD, to me, is the mindless action flick of games. A weekend with the campaign, some fucking around with Zombies mode (on Treyarch years), MAYBE a wee bit of MP, and I'm good. Never awful, never amazing, just a weekend shootin' dudes. Nothing wrong with that.

    Call of Duty is some bullshit. I hate how the developers gloat over gouging DLC prices and still sell it like crazy. I hate how it comes out every damn year and hasn't changed since the first Modern Warfare. I hate all the players: the clans that ruin everyone's fun and the newbies who fuck up the spread. I hate Bobby Kotick, and Zampella and West. I hate the cheaters, the spawn algorithms, the overpowered guns you can only get at the high levels. Mostly though, I hate myself for buying it.
    There is much sadness and truth in this post.

    Well, what if you actually don't like the game? Are people not allowed to legitimately dislike the game because some people hate on it because its popular? "
    I was referring to the fact that every other week or some someone creates a thread/post saying how CoD is absolute shit.
    Maybe there's a reason for this strange phenomena?  Maybe....CoD is shit?

    In almost every Call of Duty complaint thread I see, one of the main problems is camping.  Honestly, this is basically just an excuse for someone who is really bad to say the game sucks.  If you get killed by a camper just throw a grenade at him your next life, it's not hard.

    Camping is in every single shooter. If you couldn't handle the camping in COD then I can't wait for you to try and take an objective in Battlefield.
