What? Really?! "we gave them what they wanted"??????
OMG fail Treyarch, dont try and blame people for what you guys lack, we did not give them what they wanted, rather you did, you and your devs released a broken hack bait feast and guess what? the sharks came and devoured it.

Red_Orange_Juice5008d ago

Come on you buy CoD and complain, it almost has the sticker on the cover saying "multiplayer experience may change due to glitches and hacks".

PS360PCROCKS5008d ago

orange cows you made my day. lmao sarcasm at it's best! I was wondering what the fuck that guy was doing

"This is the most overpowered thing in the game, because it doesn't even adhere to the laws of gravity."

LOL!

seriously you have very little leeway to complain ...

The previous cod game was buggy and glitched to death .. you knew it .

There was no open beta for the new one , nor much way to try it beforehands .. you rush in to purchase a game that will never be sold out and played all year long .

The smart thing would have been , if worried about that crap , to wait and see how the game performs with glitchers , hackers and what not .

frostypants5008d ago

So, glitchers AREN'T douche bags?

Sorry, this Treyarch guy is 100% correct. The truth hurts.

Heartnet5008d ago (Edited 5008d ago )

Haha im-12-years-old :P couldnt agree more :)
Treyarch didnt release what u say a "Broken hack bait feast" if people played the game normally they wouldnt have discovered as many glitches lol

and you really are over reacting i bet ur one of those people that cant play without those glitches and your furious at treyarch for calling YOU a douche bag :)

DirtyLary5008d ago

same ole buggy engine. How many more games do we get with this?

xAlmostPro5008d ago

now lets hope they fix the servers for PS3 because its laggy as hell :( i dunno if you 360 guys are having the same issue, but as it stands every game is stuttering with lag and the server even crumbled a little bit earlier and sent out tonnes of errors :/.. the party system is horrid, if the host backs out the only option is to "leave lobby without leader" and a bunch of other things..

i think they maybe under-estimated how many people would be playing on ps3 or something like that because its pretty damn bad :(

im not gonna hate on them though because mistakes happen as do glitches and bugs and its the 1st day but i do hope what he's saying here is true and they hurry up about it

huzzaahh5008d ago

I've experienced minimal lag on the PS3.

At least we can actually play our version. A bunch of my friends have the PC version and they say that the lag is so bad that the game is unplayable.

jonnyp7775008d ago

...seems very sluggish and not very smooth a lot of the time. Not on par with MW2 in those departments online. Hopefully it can be fixed. It's not PSN, 'cause all the other CoDs run fine online. Hmm?

TukkerIntensity5007d ago

I played for 3 or 4 hours last night without any lag (maybe 1 or 2 matches had lag - which will happen in p2p games)on the PS3

xAlmostPro5007d ago

it wasnt bad early on in the day or late at night but at its peak it was pretty damn bad, dont worry guys im not hating on ps3(i think thats why i got disagrees) but yeah it was bad for a good few hours.. havent been back on today though, hopefully its died down and was just abit of an overload

So they say they are gonna do something about it?? Didn't Activision same the EXACT same thing about MW2??

Marceles5007d ago

LMAO OrangeCows...that video sums up every game's harsh reviews just to find a reason to hate a game.

Translation: "Next time this happens, be quiet about it so that we don't look like idiots."

darksied5008d ago

I know, right? It's almost genius, blame the people showing and reporting glitches, not the idiot devs who didn't fix them/don't want to acknowledge them. What a douche-bag.

Incipio5008d ago

Well done VenomProject.

May I borrow your bullshit translator so I may truly understand other industry tools?

Akagi5008d ago

"Internet nerd famous". Wow. A lot of these "nerds" are hardcore fans. Way to isolate them.

marichuu5008d ago

I doubt hardcore fans would exploit and glitch the game on purpose just to complain like that.

The more hardcore fans are probably the ones he said were constructive in their posts.

dragon825008d ago

I actually have to agree with him. The only reason these douche bags do stupid stuff like this is for internet fame. Pretty sad if you ask me.

visualb5008d ago (Edited 5008d ago )

is because the game is broken enough to allow that...

a good game always counters hackers, be it through moderation, or a solid engine.

this game doesn't have that

darksied5008d ago

These people might be only showing their frustration with the game because it's so glitchy. Calling them out on it and saying they'll ban people who "glitch" the game is ludicrous, because the game is allowing them to do that. Saying nothing and quickly fixing the bugs is what they SHOULD be doing, not sounding like a moron by blaming them for what is clearly the developers' fault, along with this idiot "multiplayer designer."

dragon825008d ago (Edited 5008d ago )

If someone leaves their front door open it allows me to take whatever I want but it doesn't mean I should. "They allowed me to do it" is not a justification for being a douche bag.

IHateYouFanboys5008d ago

@dragon82: spot on.

just because theres a way to glitch and get unlimited care packages doesnt mean you need to do it. i played who knows how many days worth of MW and MW2, well into double digits, and not once did i EVER glitch intentionally. not once. never did the javelin glitch, the unlimited care package, the 'getting in a rock', or any of them.

i dont play online to ruin other peoples games and try and break the game. i play online because i want to have some fun and i enjoy the game the way its supposed to be played.

im just hopeful now that with the theatre mode as soon as we upload a video of someone repeatedly glitching and report it to Treyarch/Activision, they will bring that ban-hammer down hard and fast. i personally will be uploading videos each and every time someone glitches intentionally in a match im in, and filing a complaint.

dragon825008d ago

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that way.

gaden_malak5008d ago

For all the talk of COD and glitching issues, I've played a fair bit of MW1 and 2 and WaW and never come across anything that seemed strange.

No, but if you don't want someone to break into your house, you should lock your door.

All Call of Duty Black Ops Games Ranked

The Nerd Stash: "Developed by Treyarch Studios, Call of Duty: Black Ops games are some of the best in the series in terms of gameplay, story, and -- of course -- Zombies."

Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.

And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.

I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.

Modern Warfare 3 Ranked Play Coming During Season 1, Treyarch Handling Development

Modern Warfare 3 Ranked Play will be arriving sometime in the middle of Season 1. Treyarch is once again handling development of it.

Kaii294d ago (Edited 294d ago )

I'll bite.
I don't min/max or alter controller schemes anymore because the default options suit me fine aside from aiming sensitivity, which was freakishly low on default.
But the matchmaking system still does that dissemble-reassemble which I hate and knew that my following games after my first overall score would increase In difficulty, i.e. drop shotters (many more examples)

You've got this ranked play but you have this spm scale that throws you against the sweatwall of hell (2 good games>1 bad game)

Swiftly uninstalled and I save 110+gb

MW3 loses a veteran Call of Duty developer of 18 years

Just 24 hours following the Modern Warfare 3 reveal, former Treyarch Studio Design Director David Vonderhaar has announced he’s stepping away from both the Call of Duty studio and Activision.

MrDead342d ago

Call of Duty development, what's that? They just make the same basic game and keep adding more and more MT's

anast342d ago

He probably should have stepped down 10 years ago.

Harkins1721342d ago

Might as well just quit your job now.

anast341d ago

I am sure you know what you are saying...I think.

Rocketisleague341d ago (Edited 341d ago )

He's a developer in one of the most successful franchises and works from Activision, do you know the benefits you get working there? Or the pay?

Half of the peasants on this site don't understand developers are humans and are working mostly for necessity like the rest of us

Stanjara342d ago

He couldn't have done another one.
Best of luck. Good decision.
