Doesn't look horribly imbalanced. Seems much better than it's prequel at least but seems like it took a hint from Black Ops where you have five perks per tier. Not a bad move to me.

And 20 on disc maps? How many were on disc with MW2 and COD4?

While I'm not disagreeing, I'm just a bit sceptical because at the end of the MW3 Spec Ops trailer (on the bit with the multiplayer footage) it comes up saying "Juggernaut 14 Point Streak" - which would confirm that it's point streaks instead of kill streaks.

The perks seem about right though.

Just a little feed from here: http://beta.digitalwarfare247.com/games/
modernwarfare3/100-mw3-multiplayer-point -streak-analysis

Two other Point Streak rewards are also shown in the multiplayer clip. After the IMS kills fourzerotwo the other player is rewarded with Juggernaut, a new 14 Point Streak reward. Once it is rewarded the announcer states, "Juggernaut ready for delivery", but even this quote doesn't provide much insight into what the Point Streak will provide. The two most common theories lean towards an AI bot being deployed into the match (much like how Juggernauts function in Spec Ops), or this Point Streak will give the player the EOD (Juggernaut) suit which could increase the amount of explosive/bullet damage the player can take before dying.

It also appears that the Predator Missile, first seen in Modern Warfare 2, will be returning. This missile, rewarded somewhere between 4 and 14 points, will most likely remain user controlled via a laptop.

One final thing to note about the Point Streaks is that they appear to be stackable. Not only did the IMS (4 Point reward) earn stillRIZZO the 14 point Juggernaut reward, but once he reached 14 points the meter (bottom right of the screen) reset back to four slots. This could possible mean players have the ability to earn four Point Streak rewards per life (while still only have 3 rewards equipped). It also appears that players may be able to scroll through their earned rewards and use them in any order they want.

Point streaks can be obtainable from kills, capturing objectives, planting bombs etc. Apparently it's to try and encourage people to play the game rather than camp for kills.

Yeah, I knew about all of this and that's what I assumed until I saw in a video with either Robert Bowling's tweets or an interview with him about killstreak stuff. I wish I could find that video, but I don't know where it is or even what it said exactly that maid me assume there were killstreaks.

You know as long as they take dual wielding out, I'll be that much happier. I have some hope for this game after all, but not too much because that spoils everything.

Why? Dual-wielding isn't imbalanced at all. You sacrifice a huge amount of accuracy for added firepower and bullets.

But the perk balance is retarded, look you can be ultimate stealth again. Here was me hoping Blind Eye and Assassin would be in the same tier.
Apparently not because being invisible to EVERYTHING and completely inaudible is balanced in a game so concentrated on situational awareness.

Maybe they should make dual wielding a perk, because they always going to be some dumbass out ther on Xbox Live/PSN who's going to do just that. Plus I really do hope that they do remove that nuke killstreak, I know how stupid that was in multiplayer.


Just stop worrying, and love the bomb.

Problem is, that's from a special LAN event and you might not be able to play with 32 players online when the game releases.

What's wrong with people? I remember playing on mw1 with more than 32 players, on god damn dedicated servers. There is really no progression in the franchise and the fact that people don't notice makes me lose hope in the gaming community.

It would be new for the console version. The fact that people complain about this shit night and day makes me lose hope in the gaming community. Everyone's just a bunch of assholes, really.

Welp, making assumptions aren't we? It's actually the first time I say anything about it online. Besides, I don't give a fuck, I won't be giving MY 50$ as if I was to get dlc for a game I bought 3-4 years ago.

Sledgehammer games on designing MW3 in comparison to their previous works.

P.S. check out the pompous BF3 fanboys in the comments section.

People enjoy a game. You hate it for some reason. Decide to bitch about it for some other reason.

You're still mad. People are enjoying a game.

The community has a very wide range of ages. One of my favourite YouTubers is this 40 something year old guy who plays Call of Duty.

Counter terrorists win.

It did look pretty fun, but it's hard to say how much of that was down to their fancy camera shots. Still tempted to pick this up regardless, just because it's CoD really. Pretty certain I wont be able to get it on or close to release though.
