Yes, I loved the days of call of duty 4. It's not the game but the people that made it such a fun game. Why? Because there was no care. People didn't fuss over their KDR or winning. Boosting was kept at a minimum state and didn't have much of a negative impact towards the community. So what happened? Well you guys can explain that. I'm pretty sure most of you know by now.

With that being said, if you're a good player who plays with friends any COD game can be an enjoyable experience.
People would rather talk about how great COD4, BF3 or other COD games are while playing MW3 or whatever the current COD game they hate.
Deal with the issues and overcome them since good players usually do whether they are hardcore or not.... Or play the pretentious "I am hardcore and great and they only reason noobs kill me is their guns or IW/3arc" card.
Noobs and casuals are easy kills anyway. Nice thread bro

What "Noob friendly" things did they add to BF3 ?
Do you even own both games? or do you only defend Mw2.5 instead of playing Bf3 and seeing what everyone is talking about.
Porter you write great post but it seems like you got your head in the sand my friend. you really defend the shit out of MW2.5 when everyone can clearly see what a crap game it is. Just because you can have fun with a turd doesn't mean were all pretentious kunts because we don't like playing with feces.

Thats why theres 600k people playing MW3 and BF Bad Company 2.5 doesn't even come close to it. (See what I did there)
BF Bad Company 2.5 may be a good game but MW3 is a great game :carling:
BTW I have both and I found mw3 far more fun than bf3.

How can you say no hardcore gamers play any IW call of duty?
Back when COD4 was released it really set the path for FPS but there was not as much competitiveness back then. Neither was there in Treyarchs WaW.
The hardcore gaming started most likely in the COD series with Mw2. That game produced a lot more raging from players and bought the competitive edge to call of duty which we see today.
Modern warfare 3 is one of the most played games on xbox live and psn so how can you say no hardcore gamers touch it? The huge majority of gamers play it.
So here comes the question... so which game do you think hardcore gamers play?
If you think about saying Battlefield then please leave.
he is talking about the gamers, how can the company be more hardcore? :dumb:
They both make the call of duty series, so you cannot say that Treyarch is more "hardcore" in topic of this thread, it doesn't make any sense.

im a hardcore pro gamer, problem? :carling:
What I am referring to is the fact that CoD (especially the IW games) are considered to be casual games, they attract the inexperienced and soft core gamer and i totally get why; It is fast pace and intense, easy to learn, and there is a huge community. The problem with the series is that it is so enormously big so it kind off puts the rest of the games in the shadows. Many people stick with CoD when there is sooo many better and well produced games out there (Uncharted, Gears of War, Crysis etc.).
I love CoD but hate the fact that it is so dominating in the community. Activision makes sooo much money, they release their games every year and sells millions of copies and they sell a lot of DLC and it annoys me as crazy that they don't more effort into their games. There are so many things in MW3 that is really poor (connection, map design, lack of dedicated servers, death streaks etc.) but still the game sells crazy amounts which confuses me a little, don't we have higher expectations, especially on a game that is produced by one of the wealthiest in the industry?
I often meet people who says that their biggest hobby is gaming, so I ask them what they play and 80 % they answer something like "Mostly CoD, well almost exclusively CoD" The problem here is that I don't think that you can call yourself a gamer (and especially not a hardcore gamer) if you only play one game that well the majority of the males in the US and Europe in the ages of 10- 21(?) play.
