Not auto-prestige, just the ability to have a perk or a gun or an extra custom class, double XP, whatever is available in the prestige shop. I don't know if they'll be available to use right away or if you have to prestige once to unlock the shop.
 
Ok silly question time...
How does MW3 know if you've prestiged on the other games? What if you've bought a new slim after playing the others on a phat?
 
This is maybe old news but today I saw a "dog tag" system in some of the online footage. When you kill someone you have to walk over their dead body to confirm the kill and get extra points. It's supposed to be a way to stop the camping.
It really looks stupid. I hope this system isn't included in Search and Destroy. It could ruin the whole game in my opinion.

Dont assume till you play the game
 
@TankAss95: I thought that was the game mode Kill Confirmed, and you only get points if you walk over the dog tags that the enemy left when they die
 
Who else is collecting the double xp from mountain dew and doritos? I've got over 10 hours of double xp saved up so far.

It's a completely new game mode, not a rule change on any current mode. It's standard TDM but in order for the score to advance the dog tags need to be collected.

I've seen that but I don't care for those products. I've also seen people just taking the codes off the bags.
 
It sad to see they are still milking that engine. But no, the new engine "would be counter productive" - Infinity Ward.

Greedy 🤬

Battlefield actually tries.
 
What's wrong with reusing the same engine but updated? IW 4.0 - and by extension IW 5.0 powering MW3 - is a very good game engine, sure it's not up there with Frostbite 2.0 graphically but the engine runs amazingly well. When the engine's as good as it is, why would you create an all-new engine instead of updating the current one? Making an all-new engine would be counter-productive, as instead of updating the current engine with new features (DX11 on PC plz) they're having to spend their time writing a new engine completely from scratch, which takes a lot longer than updating whatever they currently have.

I guess you think Valve's just as bad, considering they've been doing exactly the same thing for seven years now?

Also the BF3 thread's that way ->

Ahh thanks. My mind is at ease now.

BF3 looks awesome but in all honesty I'm very tempted to be a noob and just pre order MW3 just because it's CoD. :dopey:

Go on. Let the hate flow though you. :D

Really ?? Really ? look they used the same engine because it works and its smooth its taken EA alot of time to develop and get there engine right with alot of growning pains they will be using that foreverthat pont is mute. get over it and yes there is a battlefield thread already.
 
I'm debating on whether or not to continue trying to prestige in Black Ops (which I hate) to try to get an extra Prestige Token. I wish they'd go ahead and give all the details about the Shop so I would know if I need to get it or just be fine with the one I have from MW2.

If it 'aint broke, don't fix it, as the saying goes.
 
I had hoped Sledgehammer/Infinity Ward would do away with the quick scoping, oh well.

Only 4 days until release, tango sucka, hahaha!👍
 
All you wanted gone was quickscoping? Man I was hoping they would do away with Heartbeat Sensors, deathstreaks, quickscoping, overpriced DLC and P2P hosting on consoles just to name a few. :rolleyes:

I'm not too bothered though. I won't be getting this when it launches. I feel it's best to wait about a month or so for the inevitable patches and weapon nerfing to occur. I'll also wait to see the state of the community. Aside from the lag and matchmaking issues Black Ops started out great to me. But eventually everyone discovered the AK-74u, Famas and Ghost and the game got boring very quickly. I'll wait and see if the same thing happens in MW3 and then decide if I want it or not.
 
It's inevitable that I'll get it, but it sure as heck won't be on release day. I just don't have the extra $$$ to go and buy a game right now, and on top of all that I really want to buy a wheel.

MW3: $60
G27: $200

BTW, I got a hold of a BF3 copy from Redbox, I only played single player, and it was OK, but it just lacked some things things that MW3 will probably have. I'd compile a list, but I'm feeling lazy right now. :p

I pretty much agree. As far as I'm concerned, CoD will always be an unbalanced game, people will want to do 'sik qucikscopin blad!!' and all this same kind of stuff is putting me off buying it. I barely touch Black Ops, excluding zombies. And people are making a big fuss over all this new 'prestige token' stuff, survival mode, blah blah blah. Thing is, after a month, it won't be much at all.

I'm holding out on an extremely small glimmer of hope that Sledgehammer can make this game a little more balanced though.

Can I just say, that all EA has done is made a competitor to this game. Battlefield 3. You mean IW.

Personally, I may pick this up at some point for the campaign, and the occasional 10 minute game, but that's it.
