People who complain about shotguns make me laugh. Just kill them before they get close to you. Problem solved. And in close quarters, of course they're going to outclass other guns. They're shotguns for god's sake.

People complain more about shotguns in this game than they did in Mw2, and there is little comparison to be made between the two. The SPAS in Mw2 was far more powerful than any of the shotguns in this game, and it was a secondary.

You all complain about how Infinity Ward makes mistakes & things aren't balanced, but I'd like to see you guys make a multi-million dollar internationally popular video game.

They made this game back in 2007 and have just added to it, its not hard to add new features to a pre-existing game, in the PC gaming world mw2 and mw3 would have simply been expansions not full on new games so i think ur statement is garbage kthxbai.

This is MW3, though....
So, I'm lost, lol.

Expansions

There have been two official expansion packs for Quake. The expansions pick up right where the first game left off, use all the same weapons and powerups, monsters and gothic atmosphere/architecture and continue/finish the story of the first game and its protagonist. A third unofficial expansion pack, Final Mission: Abyss of Pandemonium, was developed by the Impel Development Team.

Quake Mission Pack 1: Scourge of Armagon is the first official mission pack released on February 28, 1997. It was developed by Hipnotic Interactive. It features fifteen new single player missions, a new multiplayer arena, and gameplay features not originally found in Quake, including rotating structures and breakable walls. New enemies include Centroids, large cybernetic scorpions with nailguns, Gremlins, small goblins that can steal weapons and multiply by feeding on enemy corpses, and Spike Mines, floating orbs that detonate when near the player. New weapons include Mjolnir, a large lightning emitting hammer, a laser cannon, which shoots bouncing bolts of energy, and a Proximity Mine Launcher, which fires grenades that attach to surfaces and detonate when an opponent comes near. The storyline follows Armagon, a general of Quake's forces, planning to invade Earth via a portal known as the 'rift'. Armagon resembles a giant gremlin with cybernetic legs and a combined rocket launcher/laser cannon for arms.

Quake Mission Pack 2: Dissolution of Eternity was the second official mission pack, released on March 31, 1997. Developed by Rogue Entertainment, it featured sixteen new single player levels as well as several new enemies and bosses. New enemies included Electric Eels, Phantom Swordsmen, Multi-Grenade Ogres (which fire cluster grenades), Hell Spawn, Wrath (floating, robed undead), Guardians (resurrected ancient Egyptian warriors), Mummies, and statues of various enemies that come to life. The bosses were Lava Men, Overlords, large Wraths, and a dragon guarding the "temporal energy converter". Rather than offering new weapons, the mission pack gave the player new ammo for already existing weapons, such as "lava nails" for the Nailgun, cluster grenades, rockets that split into four in a horizontal line, plasma cells, and a grappling hook to help in moving around the map.

Expansions and modifications

There are three official expansions:

The Reckoning – released on May 30, 1998, developed by Xatrix Entertainment and published by Activision.
Ground Zero – released on August 31, 1998, developed by Rogue Entertainment and published by Activision.
Netpack I: Extremities – released on November 26, 1998 – a collection of some of the best custom maps, models, and mods developed by the online community, compiled by Id Software and published by Activision.

Expansion

An expansion pack titled Quake III: Team Arena was released in December 2000 by id Software. It focused on team gameplay through new game modes and new weapons, items, and player models. Team Arena was criticized, as its additions were long overdue and had already been implemented by fan modifications. A few years later Quake III: Gold was released, including the original Quake III Arena and the Team Arena expansion pack bundled together. Front Line Assembly made the soundtrack for the expansion; the counterpart to Sonic Mayhem's Quake 3 Arena: Noize.
