Modern Warfare 3 Spawn Logic at its worst

Just a little video on the worst of MW3's annoying spawn logic. In one game I died about 43 times in 2 minutes.

I understand when a game is bad, the spawns in MW3 are horrific but this guy is a clown.
He keeps going back for revenge kills, he rushes back to where he was killed, by the time he gets there, the other player has moved and sees him first.
Its typical noob gameplay, Ive been in games where my team is spawn trapped but I dont go out rushing.
I see where people are getting shot from and slowly get a few kills, get to 5 and disrupt the other team.
You have to be smart, and this type of gameplay is terrible.

ljh2174485d ago

This is true. I really hate dome, but the building he was spawning in is the easiest point on the map to hold down and clear enemies from. Instead he just sprints out everywhere, I suppose the bomb was about to be blow but you can't diffuse it if you're dead.

I'm not saying MW3 spawns are perfect - maps are so small that even if there was a perfect spawning algorithim, it still wouldn't work. Just this is evidence that the guy is terrible rather than the spawning system (although it wouldn't take much to prove how terrible it is).

davidmccue4485d ago

The spawns will always be bad in DOME, the map is way too small and when all the players are spread out you are bound to spawn in close proximty to an enemy player. The only fix they could do is to limit the player cap for the map.

As for the player in the video, he deserved to get killed so many times, due to a lack of skill and common sense.

I bet the player count has majorly dropped off, and I'm willing to bet that alot of people have gone back to MW2 and Black Ops. This is the first CoD game that doesn't display the overall player count since CoD4......I wonder why.

Hufandpuf4486d ago (Edited 4486d ago )

1. You really suck
2. The spawns are garbage
3. It's COD, did you expect improvement?
4. Why did you buy the game?
5. NVM you still suck.
6. I'm lvl 13 and beat lvl 80s continuously.
7. Stated above doesn't change the fact that the game still sucks.

Intentions4485d ago

Geee... Since when did levels determines skill?

Overall Mw3 is broken.
CoD4 and Mw2 is a lot better, each new release of CoD is getting more shitter and unbalanced. Even though Mw2 was broken; but at least they fixed it. After all these years they couldn't fix it for the sequel; looking at you Mw3.

Intentions4485d ago

Yeah true... Guess I just like the simplicity of CoD4. :/

cyborg69714485d ago

I tried playing this last night. What a joke. There are so many things that are unbalanced and lag. At least black ops tried to bring it back to the level of mw1. Bo owns mw3

davidmccue4484d ago (Edited 4484d ago )

If they remove tubing from COD it would be a lot better game and more 'skill' based, 70% of my deaths have been by the other players just firing random tubes.

The sad thing is that some people only use tubes to get kills and they manage to get the most kills in a match, even though they are really bad at the game.

I know you can use the Blast Sheild perk to help combat this, but it will leave you very vulnerable if you substitute the Assassins perk for it. The ememy players will know exactly where you are on the map, hence removing any stealth gameplay elements from the game.

They should make a new 'True Hardcore' mode which removes tubing, killstreaks and the map radar altogether, this will help bring back the CORE gameplay of COD and how it was meant to be played, Noobs may not apply.

The spawn system does indeed suck(easy to achieve when you have bad maps) but all this video proves is that the player sucks at this game.

Mroc134485d ago

I agree. I actually would have liked to spawn in like that player and get the chance to kill the guy that killed me.

arnyftw4485d ago

This is demolition. You spawn at the same part of the map so its easy to spawn trap. I have only played a couple of demolition game in which a team hasent been spawn trapped.

Call of Duty Players Disappointed by $80 B.E.A.S.T. Glove Bundle Deal

Recently, players of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone were met with a new bundle featuring the B.E.A.S.T. Glove, inspired by King Kong's armament in the Godzilla x Kong movie. However, the $80 price tag attached to this themed accessory left many Call of Duty fans feeling underwhelmed.

Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash

Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.

Gridknac14d ago

They call that a crack head! Thats what this is really about, its an addiction. People who dont smoke cigarettes look and laugh at the addicts that spend $8-$10 a pack, but they cant help themselves, they are addicted. That same analogy applies perfectly to the whole MT industry. Only an addict that was not thinking clearly would spend this kind of money on something so frivolous. A round of multiplayer provides the same high a person gets from scratching a lotto ticket, or putting money on a sports bet. MT in general need to really be regulated because you have a generation of kids becoming adults who grew up only knowing the MT era of gaming. Its normal to them and they will in turn teach their kids the same by just being a gaming parent and getting their kids involved with them in gaming. Thats why no matter how ridiculous the headlines keep getting out of the MT industry, it never seems to fade or go away.

X-2313d ago

I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.

Cheech And Chong Are Coming To Call Of Duty Because Everything Must Be Consumed

The famous comedy duo is the latest example of pop culture becoming one big grey blob

Christopher29d ago

Certain to have some sort of reference to their online store for CBD/THC chews, which is advertising heavily online the last month or two.

Sciurus_vulgaris29d ago

The randomness of the multiplayer characters is one of reason I quit playing COD after briefly returning in 2022. We got Space Marines, rappers, tree monsters etc. all in a series called “ Modern Warfare”.

OtterX28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

I think if there was ever a time for a competitor to rise up and take away some of Call of Duty's thunder, the time would be now. A military shooter that takes itself seriously, not sold out to Fortnitism. Easier said than done, I know... but the time is ripe.

I can't stand this stuff either.

Palitera28d ago

There are tons of MP shooters that make no profit, if you're looking for one of those

fsfsxii28d ago

You guys have been saying this shit since 2009. Fortunately, nobody’s bringing down cod anytime soon, if ever.

crazyCoconuts28d ago

I agree. I really didn't like how the silliness takes away the gritty origins. That and all the crazy effects... dunno. I'm still playing it but I'd love for someone to steal their cheese and cater to grittier players

OtterX28d ago

@fsfsxii It's not so much wanting COD itself to die as it is wanting this silliness to die. Like CrazyCoconuts said, it takes from the grittiness. Many OG COD players want a straightup Military shooter experience, not silly costume time at Carnival.

is this what the kids want these days a pair of iconic stoners who were big in the 70s and have kind of held on I enjoyed their movies decades ago but I never recall the movie where cheech infiltrates a enemy base while chong snipes for support guess I must of missed that one

Man I'm getting to old for this

Knightofelemia29d ago (Edited 29d ago )

Cheech just looks so wrong in the picture.

Profchaos28d ago

Why just why. cod up in smoke

anast28d ago

They charge too much for a game that is kitsch.

MW3 missed its easiest opportunity to give us some of the best Call of Duty maps ever made

From Bootleg to Black Box, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 made a heartbreaking mistake by not remastering the bizarrely forgotten maps from its namesake.
