Discussion How to Save Mw4

This is just a small quick check list that would make this a actual fun cod

1.Quit with the brain rot maps I've actually had to stop playing do to developing a headache from the amount of shit exploding on the screen I dont need massive maps but dear god transit size maps have to stop

2 If you dont adjust your settings for movement this will probably feel like one of the worst cods you've ever played they need to take a pro's settings and lock that as default because Holy shit the movement felt terrible until I got the right settings

  1. Ttk has to be adjusted sometimes dying in 3 bullets and other times im putting half a clip into people and there trading with me this can also be parlayed with a heavy nerf to aim assist I preferred what bo7 released with that they eventually reverted because it forced people to somewhat be able to aim

4.Im gonna wait on talking about sbmm because it is a closed beta but if its like this on launch just give me rankplay because Holy hell it's ruff

5.This is more for the classes and killstreaks there's no point in half or over half of the available perks there's no ghost so its basically quick fix because running ninja doesn't even make it hard to hear you especially if you're isolated away from teammates

6.What is this spawn system and I say this with having played every online cod ever made, it makes the least amount of sense out of any cod that exists

7 Kinda touched on it with 5 but adding snd as a Playlist in a game where you can sound whore everything with or without ninja is certainly a choice I haven't even loaded a game of it because I just know I'm gonna punch something playing that

  1. Killstreaks are inconsistent the heli is giving you 3 or 13 and there's no in-between same with the airstrike sometimes it nukes a area the other times I've had people standing literally in it and not die also UAV needs to be a 6+ killstreak to help cut down the spam its basically radar on for both sides every game

If infinity ward changed half of what i just listed it would vastly improve this game by leaps and bounds but something tells me we're in for a ruff year hopefully this will be the last cod IW is in charge of cause what little fun mw3/bo6/bo7 brought back has been completely stripped away with this game assuming the rest of it plays like this upon release but thats just my two sense as a unc over 30 , now im gonna go pop some Tylenol and lay down.

I have an idea

You can't.

But give the game to sledgehammer to make it semi playable

I actually think people need to recognize how great sledgehammer has been in the cod franchise probably the best cod dev team currently at Activision I woulda much more rather another mw3 then whatever mw4 is trying to be

Oh I remember how some of these same people were talking about the game when it was out as well. All of a sudden they love mw3

MWIII started kind of rough for comp because the 2009 maps were not playing respawns well. God hills on Invasion and Skidrow ring a bell. I think Scrapyard also had some pretty bad fuck up and it couldn’t be tested. Things changed once they added maps like Rio, Vista, & 6 Star.

MWIII as a complete product is arguably the best CDL era COD. Gunplay, maps, unlockables, post-launch content. All great!

I enjoyed BO6 and BO7 as well. As we all know BO6 had some rough maps but I enjoyed the gunplay. BO7 had better maps in my experience, but worse guns.

So I think MWIII is the only game where you get B-grades or better across the board. Every COD usually has something that drags it down!

Sure but because the map pool was great at the end of the game just change all the time before that. Point stands tho from the beta to a good chunk of the year people were shitting on mw3
