Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 - July Elite DLC out now, Terminal free for everyone

[quote name='Trakan']I could see them doing it with Elite. Maybe they'll start doing it to charge more for the map packs or to try to compete with BF. Either way, I don't know why they'd include the AK-74u in Spec Ops and not MP.[/QUOTE]
Probably the same reason they included the Dragunov in SP/Spec Ops(I think) and not MP in MW2.

Yeah, that could be too. There could have also been plans back then to do weapons and then they got canceled or something, I don't know. I hope more weapons come to the game to give the game more of a lifespan.

They could do a lot with the secondaries. The machine pistols could use an addition or two and I desperately want akimbo Rangers again. I'd be happy if they added something functional to the whole secondary list, I just end up using the Five Seven as my go to secondary(which works awesome with a silencer).

Yeah, let's add more powerful secondaries to make shotguns even more obsolete!

Rangers = Shotguns... I hope you're being dense and/or sarcastic.

You want to make them secondaries. I'm referring to the current primary shotguns.

Unless you want to add them as primaries, which would be awesome.

I don't want to make them secondaries, I just want them, period.

Edit: I'll even go so far as to say I don't like Shotguns as Primaries. It resulted in their complete nerfing in every incarnation in order to retain "balance." I miss the balls Infinity Ward had when the old team was together because they didn't patch weapons for balance aside from obvious glitchery(sniping akimbo 1887s and such).

Anyone collecting dew codes. I have like 3 of everyone but I am still missing one of the 15. I am missing the MW3 characters. I want to finish up and apply my xp and be done with it.

I finally got my kd back over 1.0. I find if I play a day and move on to the campaign for a day it is more tolerable. I am still not feeling as good about the game as I did with the other ones in the series. I do like the campaign. I wish they would add missions via dlc.
 
This game needs to get the damn lag fixed. I shouldn't get hitmarkers with the Spas with damage and extended mags. But it still takes me 2-3 shots sometimes to kill a guy point blank.

I might go back to Black Ops soon. At least people die when I shoot them in that game.

lag compensation is a bitch. instead of damage i would try range on a spas.
 
That's another reason to love Dead Silence Pro, traversing the map and jumping around like a lunatic isn't punished. I feel the fall damage is fairly inconsistent in terms of a little is an ankle twist but a hair more than that has you nearly dead.
 
Why in hell were they putting tac inserts in the middle of the room and the middle of the street. That was just dumb.

Nice job killing the shit outta them though.

You'd be surprised how often people don't notice the damn things. I've seen teammates walk right past them.
 
I run sitrep on most of my classes and I always make my mates aware of these things. They must be punished.
 
Uuuuh, I don't see a nerf for the shotguns there, unless I'm missing something. Just says they fixed a glitch for the Extended Mags when it came to shotguns.

You mean the glitch that made shotguns do a bit more damage, so they actually killed in one shot sometimes?
 
I'm actually not aware what the glitch was, I didn't even know there was one. The shotgun fix there is just a fix since that's not what they intended, but they do desperately need to bump up the damage for those. I loved using the SPAS in MW2 and using any of the shotguns is just horrendous on here.

The extended mag glitch added 1.5x the number of pellets. 6 up to 8 or 8 up to 12. It made the shotguns a somewhat viable choice, and now they're taking that away.

They really ought to add something like Dragons Breath as an attachment, that would be awesome for the pump/lever guns.
 
I discovered I like using the AA-12 today. I especially like how people bitch about it being a noob gun, despite it's effective range of about a foot.

Even without the extended mags glitch I'll still use it on this bad boy, you run outta ammo too fast otherwise. Plus, I feel comfortable running Slight of Hand first, then Scav for my first Specialist unlock, while using ex mags, which is nice for when I need my secondaries for longer-range engagements.
 
[quote name='Thekrakrabbit']Its supposed to be out, how is the Type 95 these days?[/QUOTE]

I thought the patch was gonna be up later tonight. If it was up earlier, the Type 95 still seems to instantly kill me all the time, even hipfired, but a lot of it is still the lag and lag compensation problems. And the spawn problems. And the shitty maps.

Correct, later tonight.
 
There's another new patch coming this week to address lag, specifically for "host disadvantage and those with stronger connections" according to fourzerotwo.

Thank God.

I guess there's also a patch coming in January for improved voice quality in game.

I think that patch is for PS3 only (being the platform that has had voice quality issues).

Thank God indeed. fourzerotwo mentioned no plans for shotgun buffs to counteract the fix of the extended mags "glitch", so hopefully this will reduce the hitmarker garbage that plagues my games.
 
All I'm seeing lately is USAS-12s with Extended Mag. Is the extended mag glitch fixed now? Still really goddamn powerful, one match 5/6 people were using it on the other team.

It seems it hasn't been fixed yet, looking at the updates page again. But shotguns are way underpowered and nobody should even think of complaining about them with the way snipers are in this game.
 
I was just surprised how badly I was getting rocked with the thing. Pump-action shotguns are useless, but the semi-auto ones aren't as bad it seems.

This game needs to be tweaked a bit, yeah. I find that when I play this, compared to Battlefield or some other game, i'm just...not having fun. Maybe I just need to find my groove and get used to it some more.

Ah, makes sense. The regular voice chat on 360 is dogshit compared to party chat, so I just figured that's what it was.

It might be a placebo effect, but I've done well in every game I've played today since the update!

If they fix the spawns, this game might actually be pretty damn good!

EDIT: I jinxed it. After posting this I got a game with boosters and a game with all quickscopers.

Just remove goddamn Tac Inserts. How hard can that be?

played some last night, and still haven't nerfed the type 95 yet...how many damn patches is it going to take until they fix the damn thing? at least the lag is better now.

What were you expecting on the Type-95? They took away the hip-fire spread but the damage is still unchanged.
 
Honestly I don't see how the type 95 is over powered, only guns I think are OP were the fmg9 akimbo (and they still are). The shotguns and LMGs need a serious buff.

The 95 is stronger than the already cheap M16 from MW2 and it's worse with Rapid Fire given as an attachment option. If you can't see why it's OP then you really need to get schooled by a group of cheap little bitches with no skill trolling the publics. The FMG9s are extremely minor in severity compared to the Type 95.

I'd say leave the lobby if ur getting that. If there's one or two people constantly killing you with it, throw on your Type 95 and give it back to them.
It's definitely one of the strongest assault rifles but so are the ACR, SCAR, & M4. Just an idea :D.
 
If only they had a patch for all the fucking camping that goes on. I swear I have to change lobbies about 4-5 times before I find a room where most people don't lay prone in front of a doorway and stay there. After a few games the campers find their way in that room and it starts all over.

Reading comprehension FTL. I don't have such problems but anybody who doesn't understand why the Type 95 is OP just needs a nice griefing session with it. I piss off most Type 95 users because they'll start to camp a spot and I'll C4 their camp or snipe them with my ACOG MK14. I don't even complain about campers, I move at my own pace, I progress through areas and do very well for myself.

Well I guess all the good guns in the game are OP then. Maybe we should just all run around with knives and USP45 pistols so nobody can claim a gun is OP.
IMO, it's one of the strongest assault rifles but I can do just as good with the ACR, SCAR, M4, & MK14. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.:nottalking:
