Ok, so anywhere in this forum, someone says they like MW3 or any other game like that and people say "Argh stupid game, stupid community, why do you like it, you're stupid".
And most times it's about the community they're talking about. That's right, they say the game is bad because some bad people play it. It's like saying Minecraft is crap because of griefers.
Really guys, stop. I want a reason - and a good argument - saying why the game is so bad for you all. And don't just flame me, I'm going to ignore any post that says just "Hur it's crap you're a dumbass for playing this game!!11!".
MW3, it looks and plays awesome in single player mode. However when it comes to the PS3 the multiplayer is unplayable. We have great internet speed and connection and the game was lagging and glitching like hell and I know we were not the only ones with this issue. So we pretty much have thrown it aside and went back to Black Ops for multi. As for the story it was beaten in like 2 days.
Let someone have his one opinion, if someone doesn't like the game doesn't make him/her a hater!
I agree to Jair by the way, campaign hasn't got a great story, and MP gets boring to me after 2 months.
2 hours...
Thats how long it took me to get bored.

You don't seem to understand the point of the thread - I'm asking why people can't let others like the game. The opposite of what you said.
I don't hate the game, but to be honest it's really bad. Before anyone asks me why I think the game is bad.
1) Unbalanced guns. (see noobtube)
2) Bad player base. (Fanboys, 12 years old screaming "fag" or "gay")
3) Repetitive. (All you do is the same thing(run around and shoot), you don't need to use tactics whatsoever.)
4) Unrealistic. (Seriously guys, dual wielding shotgun?)
I am not bothered by people who don't like MW3, neither am I bothered by people who prefer BF3 over MW3.
I am bothered by all of the people (and there are a lot), who whenever the word "MW3" is written somewhere, start ranting that MW3 suck and/or that BF3 is better.
If someone asks "How do I do *something* in MW3", 50% of the posts in that thread will be "OMG, MW3 SUX LOL", "GET BF3 ITZ ZO MUCH BETTA" or something alike.
That really has nothing to do with the original thread, and I think that those people should stfu.
You can dislike the game, but don't post that you dislike it in every thread even though it has nothing to do with the thread's intention at all.
Yes! Exactly what I'm saying! Finally someone who agrees.

1) Ok.
2) Not the game's fault, argh.
3) Well, there are many ways to do fun strategies. If your play style is just to run and shoot, it's your problem.
4) If it was just like real life it wouldn't be fun.
First of all, who says that the game is supposed to be realistic? The developers?
Secondly, what is wrong with a video game that's not realistic? Do people really want to bring the boring and annoying tripes of real life into video games? Hey how about in the next CoD, we make guns jam randomly just like in real life and you have to clean it too! Doesn't that sound like super fun and realistic? I don't care if I can't dual wield a shotgun in real life. Real life is boring. Video games are supposed to be fun.
See Fallout 3/ Fallout: New Vegas with mods.
Nothing is wrong with a game being not realistic. But being too fake-ish just ruined what the game is supposed to be. The game is supposed to simulate a real life battlefield. This is one of the games that doesn't know what it wants.
Thirdly and finally, saying you want balanced guns and a realistic game is just impossible. You can't have a balanced game and total realism, because real life isn't balanced. If you want a balanced game then you will have to tweak the realism to be more unrealistic so that it is balanced.
No, it's not impossible. You just need to not be lazy. Which the developers fails to do so.
Community sucking? Yeah it's not great but I have to say that the CoD community is far from the worst I've seen.
*Cough* Roblox *Cough*
But the CoD community is a close second...

Huh?
The more realistic shooters (not completely, but a lot more realistic than CoD) are generally a lot more balanced...

Ok but seriously, to answer a few questions and whatnot:
1) Unbalanced guns. (see noobtube)
The noobtube isn't the problem anymore, it's those darn FMG9's. They were "fixed," but not fixed good enough. There's a good chance they'll try to fix it again.
2) Bad player base. (Fanboys, 12 years old screaming "fag" or "gay")
Here's an easy fix: Mute Everyone. If you still don't like them cus they suck in a game, get better skills.
3) Repetitive. (All you do is the same thing(run around and shoot), you don't need to use tactics whatsoever.)
Repetitive!? I guess your one of those guys who call themselves a "gamer" but only play one gametype in one game.
4) Unrealistic. (Seriously guys, dual wielding shotgun?)
Unrealistic!? Name one fun (oops)realistic game.
5) I get bored fast.
Try different gametypes, or spec ops. Spec ops is seriously awesome.

To me MW3 got boring really quickly. The story line was just was the same as the last 2, and the multiplayer, it got boring REALLY fast. The next day I traded it in for Skyrim. Some guy at Gamestop said: "Why are you trading the best FPS of the year?" Me: "Because it got boring too quickly". I don't hate MW3, I'm just really disappointed... I thought Black Ops was better JUST FOR THE ZOMBIES, at least that got me addicted. Now in 2012, hopefully Treyarch continues the zombies.

I'm talking about CoD games in general. All of them are unbalanced.
3) Repetitive. (All you do is the same thing(run around and shoot), you don't need to use tactics whatsoever.)

I play all kinds of games. RPG, FPS, Puzzlers, Parkour and etc.
Who says the game is meant to simulate a real-life battlefield?
The game is designed to be an arcade shooter. Just because it has a few elements like sprinting and climbing does not mean it is trying to imitate real life, it's making itself more immersive and giving more options of how to play to the player. Look at the maps as well, they're not designed with realism in mind like in BF3, they're designed to be a multiplayer arena for various game modes.
Personally, I've had more abuse shouted at me from Counter-Strike players than CoD players.
So you're saying: "This game isn't realistic, so it's fun." Am I right? Different people have different tastes. I get that. You like this game, I respect your opinion. I don't like this game, so you should respect my opinion as well.
The campaign always have something about war. Know what war means? Firefights, bombs, planes and tanks. If that's not simulating a real-life battlefield is, I don't know what is. I can't argue on the maps, there's nothing to talk about.
Too all:
I said I do not like this game, but that doesn't mean I hate it. OP is asking why everyone thinks it's bad, and I said what's bad about it. That's the point of this thread isn't it? Why is this turning into a MW3 vs BF3? I never started anything about BF3. >_<
People hate it because it's cool to hate it. I really don't see what's wrong with the series, although I don't get why it's so massively popular, either...

It's like Rebecca Black and Justin Bieber. People hated them so much they have to tell everyone how bad their songs are, that's why their MV's get so many views.
Eh, I'm fine with the game- I just kind of think that compared to MW2, it was somewhat of a few steps backwards in progress to me- kind of a hard feeling to explain. Plus it seems that the lag is horrendous in multiplayer- may just be me though.
I do like the campaign though very much, it was a lot of fun for the time it lasted.
But yeah, I find it infuriatingly annoying as well whenever someone barges into a CoD thread asking for help or whatever and they completely derail it with phrases such as "get BF3 it's more realistic" or any phrase attacking the CoD series. I mean, really, they're asking for help on CoD, not which games to choose. Stuff like that is more suited well in a CoD vs Battlefield thread...

or basically,

It's just not going to happen, all you can do it's brush it off and play the game you like.
2 hours...

You don't seem to understand the point of the thread - I'm asking why people can't let others like the game. The opposite of what you said.
Because people need to learn what real-
oh wait...
what is there better on the market these days?
Carry on.
1) Unbalanced guns. (see noobtube)
2) Bad player base. (Fanboys, 12 years old screaming "fag" or "gay")
3) Repetitive. (All you do is the same thing(run around and shoot), you don't need to use tactics whatsoever.)

You're one of the people I'm talking about. And you didn't even read the OP.
I don't know where you saw a community that's worse than CoD, but CoD's community is the worst I've seen

Nope, I've heard of it. But never played it. What's the game supposed to be? Does it have anything to do with robots?
Hold on, Googling Roblox.It looks like Lego + Minecraft.
Finally someone agree. :biggrin.gif:

Do you mean "name one fun realistic game" or..?
I never said "I get bored fast", so I'm assuming that's not pointed at me.

CoD is popular thanks to haters.
