That is something that plagues me: Even if we're not a unit, I expect some semblance of common sense. There were times when I'd click with a bunch of randoms and magic happens. But usually, I yell "What the hell are they doing!"

Did that a few times on Battlefield yesterday.

Black Ops had double xp over the weekend and if you prestiged during it you unlocked something from the MW3 prestige store or whatever they are calling it. Not sure on the details since someone else told me about it and I didn't try because I haven't played Black Ops since the first week of September.

ClockShot 11-01-2011 02:09 PM

Anybody here drinking massive amounts of Mountain Dew and banking double xp time?

Blitz 11-01-2011 02:26 PM

Copies of the game I leaked. Most interesting thing I saw was that there is apparently a
SPOILER: show
hidden killstreak called the M.O.A.B., which kills every member of the opposing team once and puts an EMP on them for the remainder of the match. Apparently it's 25 kills, and other killstreaks don't count towards it.

D Mac 11-01-2011 03:19 PM

Great. :|

I see massive amounts of match quitting when that shit happens.

Kalyx triaD 11-01-2011 03:40 PM

Doesn't seem to make sense. What kills them? Wouldn't they stray away from anything like the infamous Nuke killstreak? Most perks and killstreaks were revealed openly, why hide this one?

Reeks of bullshit.

Why. It's essentially one death against you. And if the requirements are as I posted, I doubt we'll be seeing a lot of them online.

The guy who posted it was of course immediately flamed and called troll. Until he posted a video of it, which I didn't see because it was promptly copyright claimed by Activision. Others
saw it though, and seemed to confirm it.

The thread in question.

Kalyx triaD 11-01-2011 04:06 PM

Well fuck. Just when the game got me interested.

I may not fire a bullet in this game, I haven't decided.


Kalyx triaD 11-01-2011 05:22 PM

They should have Captain America edition riot shield DLC. Complete with boomerang toss. 1200msp.

Kalyx triaD 11-01-2011 05:22 PM

I'm serious.

LoDownM 11-01-2011 05:35 PM

If this MOAB stuff is true, I don't know why they would make it give off an EMP, it's just a really really really big normal bomb.

I really hoped you were lying but sadly,

Looks like I wont be picking this up then, might get BF3 instead now.

Blitz 11-01-2011 06:17 PM

Is everyone in this thread serious right now.

El Fangel 11-01-2011 06:23 PM

And I gotta give Roxer mad props at playing CTF.

Well given how much "fun" the nuke made the last one. I'd say yeah, I am.

RoXer 11-01-2011 06:28 PM

Serious. Not going to press the right trigger once.

G 11-01-2011 06:30 PM

fallen angel will be playing this within 1 month of release. would say 1 week but a month is enough time for him to feel really lonely because everyone is playing this

It's not a nuke. It doesn't end the match. It gives whoever uses it 6 kills and EMPs the other team for the rest of the match, which, if you've let someone get 25 kills not counting killstreaks, ain't gonna be that long in any case.

Seriously. Focus on that last line. 25 kills, not counting killstreaks. How many people do you suppose got a nuke in MW2 via 25 honest-to-God kills, without using harriers/hinds/chopper gunner/whatever?

It could be match ending, but only because if you let the other team actually get it, they'll have about 7000 points to your 1200.

Yes, yes, you're worried about boosters. Always a problem. IW is supposed to be watching them more this time around. And btw, everything I just said, and everything that's been posted is based on sketchy info from leaks. For all we know, it could only be available in custom gametypes or private matches or something.

Just saying, I wish people would wait for a little more info before they go off on "MOAR NUKES IW I HATE YOU MOST BROKEN GAME EVARRRRRRRRRRR~!!" tirades

El Fangel 11-01-2011 06:45 PM

I agree with everything you said there Blitz.

I just want to say one thing, IW has done nothing to earn my trust.

LoDownM 11-01-2011 07:33 PM

I'm not even worried about the MOAB, I got nuked once in MW2.

D Mac 11-02-2011 01:03 AM

I'm still buying on release. So I guess I'll have to find another clan or some shit since Blitz is the only other TPWWer getting this.

D Mac 11-02-2011 01:06 AM

I'm probably the only one that's also interested in the single player campaign. It looks badass.

Nah. Big reason I went with this over BF3 is because I know campaign will be awesome.

D Mac 11-02-2011 02:51 AM

Soooo from that IGN video they played a lot of Spec Ops Survival and it looks like mad fun. I can easily get into it way more then I could zombies.

El Fangel 11-02-2011 06:58 AM

This game has single player???!!!

Saved a bunch of money today buying a winter coat. Got hooked up enough where I can buy Modern Warfare at launch, and still get Saints Row.

Well not at launch, but on the 10th. You me and Blitz will tear it up. Maybe Funky's bro too.

RoXer 11-03-2011 01:42 AM

I am invisible I guess

or just a given

Captain of Fun 11-03-2011 02:15 AM

IGN:

Quote:

A leaked copy of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has been sold on eBay for $1,725.

Unauthorized copies of the game were mistakenly released into the wild this week, when a retailer placed the game on sale. MW3 is not due to be officially released until November 8th.

One copy of the game was placed on eBay and has been picked up for nearly 29 times the retail price of the game. It received a total of 88 bids.

But early play may carry an additional price. Xbox Live's Director of Policy and Enforcement for Stephen Tolouse warned that playing the game online pre-release could result in a ban. He tweeted, "Pre-release play not authorized. Please be patient. Playing early may impact your account!"

In other news (SPOILER ALERT) a leaked video from the game has appeared online showing a scene likely to cause controversy in the days ahead. The scene portrays the death of a child in a central London terrorist attack.

Crimson 11-04-2011 01:53 PM

People waste money on anything..hope that person goes bankrupt

Emperor Smeat 11-04-2011 02:59 PM

IW showed off how the whole CoD Elite and social features actually work in the game.

Kalyx triaD 11-04-2011 05:51 PM

Halo Waypoint/Bnet essentially. Not complaining, just seemed obvious. Hope more games do that.

Emperor Smeat 11-04-2011 06:06 PM

Walmart holding a launch tournament for MW 3 at 2700 stores starting at 8pm on November 7.

Walmart is also giving away the choice of a free CoD Elite t-shirt or MW 3 patch for all copies bought at the store.
http://www.screwattack.com/news/wal-...2700-locations


CoD Elite was also delayed for the PC with the main problem of Activision calling the platform "insecure" in terms of hacking for stats. No date on when it will actually arrive on the PC but the console versions of Elite will launch on time.

Quote:

The issue here is that the PC is an insecure platform. Without a central, trusted resource for stats, a lot of our competition features become unfair. We can’t give away prizes when people can easily cheat their stats. Leaderboards are less fun when a lot of the users are there unfairly."
