It still doesn't address the killstreak perks ruining the (mp) game, encouraging people to camp, rather than....I dunno...Capturing the flag/ strategic points, or protecting the HQ.

Just saying. If people just played and didn't worry about stats it might be fun.

I left this game (CoD in general) when my whole team hid to camp, leaving me to capture points on my own, while they worked on thier chopper gunner or nuke...Multiple times, with multiple teams...

What's worse is that appears that BlackOps and MW3 have not only not addressed these problems, but have actually made them worse. The killstreaks are pretty ludicrous now from what I've seen - the game seems to increasingly encourage people to act out the "superhero" and screw any sort of actual teamwork.

Otherwise it's great to have nice cinematic games, but paying $60 for a few hours of play at best seems a bit ludicrous.

For me the peak of CoD games was the early games, especially the United Offensive expansion. Great set pieces, great atmosphere - and simple but effective multiplayer that was obviously meant to be secondary. I wish we could have that again...

Think what Lewis said in the Yogscast video Krauter posted on page 2 really sums it up:

"The game crashed at one point and it said Modern Warfare 2 has stopped working"

Which I think is bogus tbh, happened to me and it clearly said MW 3

Unless it said MW2 first and they fixed it before I had a chance to see it myself.

It was before one of the patches, my friend had the same problem. Playing along fine and then the modern warfare 2 has stopped working error

Just wanted to say, I picked up Red Orchestra 2 on steam the other day, and my hat's off to Tripwire. The level of stupification that Modern Warfare has , becomes patently obvious playing RO2.
