Plenty of people have stated that they are done with the game, because it is the same thing every year. That is a valid argument, but for the CoD fans, they can't accept that. So, they just bash on the people saying they have no argument and stuff like that.

Get MW3 and BF3?? Don't you dare insult me like that. Why would I spend my money on expansion packs to trash? They should give them to us for free. Even then I'm too cool for it.

This year I'm only playing games that aren't sequels like.....like....damn it! I hate video games!

well you said they are trash, which means you've already played them. no way that someone in the internet would say something is trash without even playing it yet ... WOULD THEY?

ok so maybe you didn't buy em ... i should have asked WHERE DID YOU PLAY THEM THEN?!?!?

Plenty of people have stated theyre looking forward to the game, because it's something new every year. That is a valid argument, but for the CoD haters, they can't accept that. So, they just bash on the people saying they have no argument and stuff like that.

No one has a problem with legitimate griping that could lead to an interesting discussion.

Not true. As soon as there's even a hint of CoD dissent, several people - yourself included - descend to chastise and ridicule. "If you don't care why do you care?" "Why is there a thread for this?" "CoD is just the malcontents' whipping boy." There's never any chance for discussion because the thread title alone spawns bickering.

It's people who don't give a shit about the game endlessly going on and on about how much they don't give a shit about the game with ZERO substance.

Not true. Take me, for example: I care about the series a great deal and so the concerns I have are not grounded in "gee, I'm bored today so I guess I'll go ruffle some CoD fanboy feathers." I want to see the series move forward and maintain its pace and quality of innovation. You need to be able to let people discuss that without resorting to blatant thread derailment, which is all that's been going on in this thread. You complain there's no real discussion, but how can one be had with all of the CoD fanboy noise?

If you don't want to hear/talk about this sort of thing, leave the thread alone and don't participate. If there's really nothing of substance to be said, it will die. And if it's really just a bunch of baseless anti-CoD sentiment, then who the hell cares anyway?

And then to make another thread about it is not only hating but attention whoring on top of it.

Just because you don't like the topic doesn't mean it's "hating." I'm sure the database behind AT didn't suffer too much at the hands of a minuscule little thread such as this. Ironically, the damn thing keeps getting bumped just as much by the people crying about the thread than those who just want to talk about what they don't like about the game.

So in all seriousness, I don't have a problem with this thread.

Yes, you do. You've stated as much - rather explicitly, I might add - in this single post alone.

if it's a way to gather together all the haters in one place where they can high five each other about how much they hate CoD or how tired they are of it, and leave the "official" thread to those who care about the actual game and/or post something of substance, everyone is happy.

Someone can't make up their mind...

I mean seriously, we get it. A lot of people are done with CoD. You're not alone. It's a great big party. Stay in your fucking corner and have a blast.

What, now you're taking your dolls and going home? Relax big guy, it's a videogame.

There's been plenty of discussion in the main MW3 thread. In fact, the tone of it has shifted dramatically since all the haters gathered here. But this thread is so corny I can't help but making jabs at it. Its such a concentrated dose of bullshit that I can't tear myself away. Rather than having the occasional derailment in the main thread, this is a derailment of a derailment into a total train wreck.

But seriously, the main thread and the hate threads are both all the better when they're kept apart. So not only do I approve of it, I'll try my best to spark as much bickering as possible here as I can, to keep it concentrated where it belongs. The game is big enough to support both.

That being said, doesn't the new MW3 engine look great?

All I want for Christmas is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

'Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’ is the most commonly searched for title awaiting release on-site which suggests that it will be the most anticipated release of the 2011 Christmas period. New site statistics released by a games comparison and marketplace website www.Playr2.com showing that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has been the most frequently searched-for title.

According to the search statistics released by Playr2.com, below are the top 10 most anticipated video game releases of Quarter 4 2011 by gaming fans; according to the number of searches made for each title on-site in the past month:

1) Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
2) Batman: Arkham City
3) Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception
4) Assassin’s Creed Revelations
5) Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
6) Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3
7) Saint’s Row: The Third
8) Football Manager 2012
9) Battlefield 3
10) PES 2012

Batman: Arkham City was a close second on the anticipated title chart, with the latest Uncharted franchise instalment also featuring. In a statement Simon Kilby, Founder of Playr2.com said that searches for video game titles yet to be released on site are a good way of gauging interest in a game.

Gaming fans are desperate to see previews or news about the titles that they’re most looking forward to being released. Quarter 4 is always a popular time for big-name releases, particularly given its proximity to Christmas, and that’s certainly the case this year with some of the year’s big name titles due for release, he said.

He added that it wasn’t surprising to see the latest instalment to Call of Duty topping the search statistics, particularly given how popular Black Ops proved to be when it was released in 2010. “People are clearly eager to find out anything they can about the title, suggesting that it may very well prove to be a huge hit, once again, upon release,” Kilby said.

Looks like Activision will not miss the OP.

because every single bf game since BF2 has been garbage (never played 1942). They keep making the same mistakes with each game. Game play is exactly the same since BF2, it's just BF2 re-skinned and with upgraded graphics. I will never buy another BF game as long as I live.


I don't play sports games but isn't Madden just the same game with different graphics and updates rosters? I mean you can't really do new things with football unless you completely change the rules. So if madden 7 was good then madden 12 should be good too, right?

Wrong on Madden and wrong on all accounts. Just drop the COD teat you're suckling from. They both have faults and traits neither will drop.

I have yet to see anyone make a valid, well thought out complaint of the game that would invoke discussion.

Well, if you say no one has made a valid argument, then I guess no one has. It's time to shut this thread down, pontifex says so.

Nobody cares enough to. I don't need a scientific discussion as to why Call of Duty sucks. Sometimes these nerd forums assume everything has to be dissected down ad naseum, jesus.

lol, you don't have to explain why you hate something with a passion but it's ok to just make hate threads and hate posts about something ad nauseum?

Got it - hypocritical trolls just doing their thing.

I'm more of one than you children. You won't admit it, but you're trolling your asses off and deliberately derailing the thread.

Grow up.

I readily admit it. But let's not pretend like there was something worth saving here.

Tough to say since 75% of the posts in this thread are you and a couple other trolls doing your best to be as obnoxiously noisy and off topic as possible. And then there's also the issue of it not being your damn job to police these forums in the first place. Who the hell are you to determine which threads are worthy of being allowed to run their course without being hindered by your constant bawling?

I've got every right to speak my mind as I see fit. You're no bastion of integrity or shining beacon of civil discourse. If I'm whining, all you're doing is whining about whining. That's even worse. If you don't like it, you can hit the road or ignore me.

It's a shame you can't respect for others what you demand for yourself. You're the most antagonizing brand of asshole.

This thread was conceived as flamebait and devolved as quickly as expected. If you want to step away from the kids table and actually talk about the game like an adult, I'm more than happy to do so in the main thread.
