Personally, I think this looks like the best elements of MW1 and MW2 combined and has a lot of potential to be what MW2 should have been.

Looks like there is still going to be tons of over the top killstreaks and spam... but with dedicated servers making a comeback, it should be no problem to configure/find servers without that stuff enabled and get competitive with CoD again. w00t.
 
Wonder if that crossbow will be anywhere near as fun to use as the one in Half-Life.
 
I mean it looks fun, but just like every other COD thats come out I'll probably buy it for $40, play the SP.. dip into MP with some friends for a month or two (at most) and it'll collect dust.
 
eh...I just picked at all the things I hate about this, to name a few.

Points coming out of peoples head when you kill them
Kill streaks
Grenades with trails on them
Remote control cars with bombs on them

Showed my brother and the first thing he comments on is every kill is with someone holding forwards, which made me laugh.

Anyway looks fantastic if you're 13 and own a 360 :}
 
I saw a guy doing an action hero dive and any leeway I might have ever have given this franchise went out of the window in a heartbeat.

Also it looks unmitigatedly shitty, visually.
 
Hey at least it looks like they removed the money flying out of people when you kill them.
 
Not too impressed. I will wait to see what they reveal on 9/1/10. Also with the PC version at 59.99 while places like Amazon have the console version for 59.99 with a $20 gaming coupon I think I will wait until it goes on sale.
 
I guess I will keep playing Bad Company 2 and get the expansion pack...for some reason I have lost interest in COD multiplayer.
 
I guess everyone who complained and whined about BFBC2 will now kiss its ass and moan and bitch about how CODBLOPS "sucks" and BFBC2 is so awesome and whatever.



:rolleyes:



<rant>DX11 graphics and D2.0 will only get you so far... after a while it means jack shit when the game lags and rubberbands like hell, has piss poor hit-detection, is bugged beyond belief, has no mod tools, no console, no "new" maps besides paid expansion packs (or whatever they'll call it), the weapon "balancing" is/was done by a half-retarded monkey on drugs, aka Demize99, etc.

Anyone who played BF2 knows half (at best) of those issues will never go away, at least not in a few years time.


It wasn't that bad of a ride... but it just wasn't meant to be. I grew tired of it. Of it and of its, mostly, dumb as a rock player-base.</rant>

ON-TOPIC:
Anyways, it looks good. I hope they also included a console, besides dedicated servers.

Looks sweet.

One of the guns looked really modern though but it could have just been my ignorance. Not sure if the entire game will take place in the Vietnam era.

That remote control car looks like a lot of fun although with it being a kill streak of only 3 I hope it doesn't turn into spam.

Looks good, Treyarch gets a lot of shit, yea they rehashed infinity ward games but atleast they don't fuck up their own games like the shit mw2 is... saying that before game is released
 
So much hate. At least TA is doing what IW SHOULD have done! This has dedicated servers and looks to be awesome. I love the remote controlled car, LOL.
 
looks exactly like MW2 which disappoints me. i loved MW2 but i'm ready for something fresh from the series. Treyarch is ok in my book, they supported WaW very well post-release.

I didn't notice that the first time through the trailer (watched it about 4 or 5 times now).

I hope it's not meant to replace jump/prone drop shots but rather as a mechanic to jump away from grenades, bullets, rabid carrier pigeon kill streak attacks etc.
 
If that was indeed a player induced action then it must be a "sprinting to prone" animation. I can't really imagine any other way.

It was more than just jumping forward and going prone. Doing that in MW or MW2 results in much less forward movement. This new move in Black Ops propelled the player a much further distance and looks completely different.

Now to figure out which key on my keyboard to bind to it...

That camera spike is gonna open up a whole new way of playing objective based matches and camping.
 
The game appears to have more destructible environments and some new weapons. Still can't figure out what era this game is going to be in.

Some of the features they added are pretty over the top and stupid though. So much for realism.

Yeah i dont have any of those problems in BC2 :eek:. Might have something to do with having a decent computer + internet connection.... but yeah. Not guna get COD, i prefer to avoid 13 year old nerd ragers squealing with their cracking half pubescent voices that dominate the COD line.
 
this or MOH - how will i decide!

not so keen on the "press x to reload bit" :/

Getting a devlopers a cookie for having dedicated servers is like giving people gold medals for being able to breathe properly.

dont forget the annoying 13 year old kids that think its cool to play their ghetto ass rap music over the mic while in the lobby..

It is pretty commendable of Treyarch to bring back dedicated servers after Infinity Ward removed them, however, since this means Activision won't be able to charge PC gamers for new maps.
 
I am one of the few that actually enjoys MW2 so Im excited. And yes, I play BFBC2 too so dont hate :p

Given enough time I'm sure Activision and Treyarch could come up with some scheme to screw the PC users even with dedicated servers.
 
i couldn't believe it when they released a second cg'd Hulk movie.
but they did to try and 'right the wrongs' in the first movie.

i'll take this as a band aid for the scab that dedicated server-less MW2 left.

i personally think the graphics in the game are a bit too 'gamey' if that makes sense. would've liked to see more of a textured look than cartoon-y.

doesn't matter. i'm gonna brainlessly buy the game anyways.
 
game looks sick. will actually be so if they removed noob tubes, OMA, nukes and akimbo weapons, also not sure that shotguns should be a secondary weapon.

i dont really get why everyone thinks BC2 is "the real pc shooter." i still play MW2, yeah i hate the lack of dedicated servers, especially when host is from europe and im rocking a 200+ ping, but the game is still damned fun.

ill be picking this game up, ill probably pick up BC3 also just to give it a shot.

IW is dead, Treyarch now has the opportunity to right all of IWs wrongs and create a franchise that PC players actually want to play and isnt reserved for 14 year olds on xbox.
 
Looks awesome. Itching for a new COD to play MP. BFBC2 has far too many online issues to have kept my interest and MW2 is just old now. Just waitin around.
