nothing, still play itt, its fun arcade shooter game, that i can just go and and play, thats the purpose of games for fun, realism is nice but at the end of the day, your still playing a videogame no matter how real it is. Though if people like battlefield better i respect that, but i hate when people bash and act like call of duty was made by Satan himself, you know?

Treyarch, they made me stop playing CoD. I absolutely loathe World at War and Black Ops and I'm sure as hell not going to try Modern Warfare 3, they just lack that thunder and magic Infinity Ward gave to Call of Duty.

1. Too much of the same. I played COD 4 to death and by the time MW 2 came out it just felt old. There weren't enough meaningful changes to keep things new. I was hoping they'd add destuctible environments and things like that, but they still have yet to go in that direction.

2.The series feels like it's becoming more and more arcade and less military shooter. COD 4 is still one of my favorite games of all time because it mixed the arcade and military shooter styles almost perfect to me. The levels also felt anlike real battlefields than more recent entries.

The repetitiveness, how it is basically the same game every year, how they add all these maps just a few at a time for a ridiculous price so I end up paying over $100 for a complete game. Too easy to wipe out the entire other team, too many ways for new players to get easy kills, too many killstreaks that are dumb

i'm not really trying to defend anything but the killstreak complaint is a very silly one especially when you can play all your games without killstreaks if you just play hardcore mode.

I can and did. But it isn't that fun to one shot everything. Many of the killstreaks are cool and great, but many just got ridiculous.

Black Ops ensured that I'll never buy a COD game by Treyarch ever again. I'm definitely going to get MW3, but I'll wait till a price drop as I know it's going to be almost the exact same like MW2 and therefore not worth €60.

I don't like multiplayer that much, but I thought MW had a great singleplayer experience, though I thought it was a little cheap at times on Veteran (every enemy in the game only focusses on you while you're with an entire squad. I remember sometimes my squad would just run forward closing in to almost melee distance and still every enemy only shot at me. Those moments were kinda lame). But I liked it enough to warrant purchase for that alone.

But MW2 was just exactly the same. I usually don't like games being exactly the same. It should be allot better, longer or whatever. So, I was never interested in it. Haven't been interested in any COD game since actually. I don't think they ever topped MW single player.

I hated Call of Duty 1 scripted events. I was hoping Modern Warfare would be different but not to my surprise it wasn't.

The fact that when i played CoD4, I had already played WaW, MW2, Blops, MW3, and the rest of the freakin series. Its just an arcade Run N Gun game. I've always been more of a BF fan, I started my FPS career with BF1942.... so thats my reasoning.

IMO, The BlOps single player is the best one to date, but Any other part of the game is boring ol' dung. Even zombies... Only after i put hours into the latest zombie map though.

Most would probably say "because it got too popular". :P Never stopped liking CoD, I just stopped playing them because I simply preferred other games.

I've always liked CoD's over the edge, crazy cinematic set pieces and run & gun stylesque gameplay in the SP so I'll probably be renting or borrowing MW3 for the campaign but MP's cheap style of gameplay eventually just started pissing me off. Still like pure and wager matches though on Black Ops.

I like CoD, and I'm not trying to start an argument. I like CoD more for the storyline and campaign than for the multiplayer.

well, I started off with mw2, and I was pretty enthusiastic with it for a while. Then it just started going down and down as the gameplay just got repetitive and I got sick of campers lying in a corner for the whole game and people that run around with knives... I prefer more tactical shooters, or at least games like Battlefield since it's more realistic. At least running around with knives doesn't get you anywhere in that game....

It's always hilariouswhen a fresh new face from CoD tries to run through your bullets and attempts to knife... only to fail every time :lol:

COD is one of the best series's in the gaming world today, the reason a heap of people hate it, is because it is too popular, if COD was one of those "under the radar" games players would praise this game, but as always, when a game becomes incredibly popular, it gains a lot more hate, the next game in the series expected to be the best game of the year like the rest of them, COD became the "Best selling FPS game of all time" for a reason, I've hate BF ever since it came out, oh i'm gonna get so much hate for this ;/

Nothing, there may be a few games that arn't as good, but they provide a reasonable amount of playtime and they are fun to play with friends even then.

Its alright for a weekend blast, but never a full dedication like most people. The story was fine: Cliched, stupid, pretends to be dark and serious....but at least it makes a slight attempt to tell a story. I suppose I agree it was the repetitiveness that bored me, you can slap as many titles and numbers for kill streaks, but they all end up the same.

But really Treyach hit the entire series so hard. Playing WaW and BO just literally gave me a headache: Poor optimization (Sorry, PC gamer.), poor gameplay, laughable story, almost abysmal technical design.

But hey, who am I kidding. I'm an English Literature student who is a fanatical and avid tactical shooter fan (ARMA II, SWAT 4 and Rainbow Six 3 all the waaaaaaaaaaay)

I will admit that I really enjoyed Call of Duty 4, but after that it just turned into a money grabber and the games didn't seem to evolve at all over the next few releases. Call of Duty has just become boring to me and just feels generic, in my opinion the Call of Duty series has become to the most overrated franchise of this generation and now people will just buy the games because it has Call of Duty written on the box.

Shame-usBlackley

Modern Warfare 2 for me as well, though not because of the cash grab (if that were the case I'd never play ANY sequel from an Activision series), but because of the imbalance of it. The killstreaks are totally ri-donk-ulous and some of the perks are completely broken (commando pro, for instance). Not to mention the fact that sniper rifles are bonkers.

I actually think Black Ops has vastly superior multiplayer. There's still a few things you can exploit, but the balance is MUCH better. I'm tired of the series as a whole now, however.

Too many games, and I don't really like the gameplay style. Seems like it tries too hard to be realistic, when in reality it's not. Just a boring shooter imo... However, the older COD games are fun. The newer games aren't really...

Im getting MW3, but this is COD's last chance for me. Black Ops insured me that I will never get a COD game from them again, but I still like IW. Its just the same game coming out over and over with new maps pretty much. There are just so many games out there better than COD. And sorry to say people, but I do not like Battlefield. Its just too slow and boring for me. So if MW3 is good, I will continue to get IW COD games, if it sucks, bye bye COD. And Treyarch can go die in a hole for all I care.

I opted out of Modern Warfare when Infinity Ward removed dedicated servers from MW2. I don't mind renting them though for the episodic single player.

When I played MW2 it was filled with bugs, camping, and a irksome community.

Not to mention that BF games do FPS better in every way.

I still like playing it. But I dislike the general idea of releasing the same game about 6 times in one generation.

I never stopped liking cod. The problem is I never liked it in the first place.
