Anyone else getting "invalid code" errors when entering their Founder status code from the card in the Hardened Edition? For now, I'm chalking it up to Activision's servers stability running second only to the clone of Gary Busey and Charlie Sheen on a week-long bender.

If you had already inputted your elite membership code before 11/30, then you already have founder status and do not need to use the black founder's card code.

Is that the case?

so after 6 patches, and who knows how many "hotfixes," it has become apparent that the donkeys at IW are either incapable or too incompetent to fix the type 95.

They should hire some consultants from treyarch.

You know what fuck it, if you can't be 'em, join 'em. When in Rome,...

The Type 95 nerf was increased hipfire spread. Nothing more that is currently known. FMG9 akimbo's are supposed to have more recoil, nothing more currently known.

That makes sense. Is there anything on the Founder's website beyond just a signup page to activate the Founder code? I activated my Elite code as soon as I got home with the box.

I swear host disadvantage lag was worse than ever last night. Totally and without fail unplayable if I became host, which was nearly every single match since anyone who was host almost always dropped mid game as well.

Was really terrible.

I had to drop mid game so many damn times, really frustrating.

Quick question

If you use a token after a prestige to unlock a gun, perk, etc, is it only unlocked for that presitge that you are currently on or does it stay unlocked for every prestige after as well?

 

[DrunkenSano]

Forever.

I finally got around to setting up port forwarding on my router for this game, and now I get the 'open' NAT style. This seems to have improved latency for me, enough that I notice it. Since when did port forwarding improve response times? At least I can see a guy and shoot, and it actually matches up. I can't tell you how many times I've been killed despite me lighting up the guy. Then I watch the kill cam and apparently he was firing at me before I was firing... wtH?

Would you say it's worth it to prestige in MW3?

I kind of regretted doing it in Black Ops...

Depends on how much you play.. I would say that if you're going to prestige or are thinking about it, then do it right away.

For those who do not care about the prestige icons, then prestiging is not really worth it.

I always prestige though because I feel like instead of just 80 levels, the game really has 800 levels and to max out my char, I have to get the max level.

I also like unlocking icons/titles, gives me a sense that I've accomplished more in the game and thus, got my monies worth.

Getting pro perks and unlocking weapons is not a problem for me since there is always a gun I like that is available to me and as I upgrade those weapons, new ones unlock as well, so I'm never at a point where I don't have a gun I like. Pro perks are so much easier to obtain than BO pro perks are.

I want to slap the person who programmed the spawn system.

I'm really liking the game. I should prestige this weekend after only a couple weeks with the game. The last one I had, whatever was before black ops but not MW2 took me around six months just due to lack of interest. I'll prestige and then probably put it down after the Christmas noobs XP and pick up Forza.

I have noticed the last week or so camping has become more common. Funny thing is the camping team never, ever wins. You would think they would put two and two together and quit that shit.

 

[Atty]

Found new love with the MP7.

When are these supposed map packs that make Elite worth buying coming out? I'm already bored of running in circles -- err, the stock maps.

And I agree with Kev, I spawn in front of people all the time or get a quick multi kill and find they all spawned with line of sight to me before my radar signature dies off.

Apparently, this actually is a big issue (card code not working on Founder website). They are escalating my issue to upper-level support thru a ticket I opened on the Elite website after a few days of back and forth resolution attempts. Let you guys know how it goes, and possible resolution.

Well, when did you input your elite membership code?

 

[BD2003]

Threw in some blops for the fun of it, and ended up playing with some dude who was bellyaching about how he got banned for 3 days from mw3 for boosting.

Nice.

Nice, I reported some MOAB boosters earlier on, hope they were punished as well. Sent the guys some hate messages, and they replied confirming the boost as well. Pointless, trying to get things by cheating.

Anyhow, Village domination, does anyone else see how imbalanced this map is? If you spawn on the C side, it's auto win so long as your team can hold down the area.

 

[Aquila76]

As soon as I got the box home. The support team is aware of that. The Founder code (not the same as the Elite code; it's on a separate card in the Hardened Edition) should still grant access to the Founder website, which mine is not.

No, I meant, what DATE did you enter your elite premium code?

If you had entered your elite premium membership code BEFORE 11/30, you AUTOMATICALLY have founders status and thus do not need to use the Founders code on the separate black card.

A lot of maps are imba for domination.

Mission is another one. If you get spawned on the A flag, you might as well quit.

Yah, A side is the dominant side in Arkaden as well. They should've put B inside the mall somewhere.

Yeah, A side dominates b/c they can go to the upper ledges and just pick off ppl there with a really good view of B and the courtyard.
