[QUOTE="Wasdie"]

[QUOTE="nhh18"]Call of Duty series had a far bigger impact on the genre than halo this generation. Halo is actually as uninspired and as generic as call fo duty. It just is an exclusive so we tend to ignore that

nhh18

Wow I've never seen more SWs buzzwords in a single post. Congrats.

Noting I said is untrue. Call of duty has put in perks, weapon layouts, exp system, boosters, and so many other multiplayer ideas into games. They are also the best selling games. There is hate because it is popular. Remember when halo got irrational hate for its games?

You think custom loadouts, EXP systems, and boosters were brought in by CoD? Also other multiplayer ideas? Every mode in CoD has been found in games before CoD.

You really know nothing about FPSs before 2007 did you?

I understand you're desperately clawing for attention, but it's clear that Valve wipes the floor with either of these two stale developers who churn out the same tried and true formula every year. Valve has released Half-Life 2 Episode 1 & 2, Team Fortress 2, Portal 1 & 2, Left 4 Dead 1 & 2, Counter Strike: GO, and DOTA 2--each of these being exceptional in quality. Valve's diversity, quantity, and quality are exceptional. And gamers got a little known service called "Steam" that's evolved to huge degrees over the past seven years. All in all, Valve owns.

Team Fortres-Plays like a Killzone wannabe. Not good and boring. Plus no one plays it online anymore, that's how boring it was. And there are like what? 5 maps or something? Glad I did not by this, I would have been pissed.

Fail. God you are dumb. Also, I'm just going to assume that you're bad at CS, TF2, and L4D

Does being popular make it the best?

Well seeing how we are in a dark age of gaming, I will say yes. The **** art directions and the obsession with technical graphics and weird retro art is making games emberassing to play.

The title is an obvious way to rile people up, but for whoever makes the better CoD, I'd say its Treyarch. Infinity Ward isn't the same Infinity Ward that made the amazing early Call of Duty titles, and Treyarch could be said to have highly evolved and focused themselves since the early days of their own CoD games. The new IW isn't willing to take any risks, MW3 was a disappointment that felt like a step back when Black Ops changed more and felt more ambitious, while Black Ops 2 looks like a fun new take on the franchise that is looking to change certain aspects and reinvigorate the series. IW was the company that soured the name of the franchise when MW2 had so many issues and when half the team left.

I'll say that I think IW's games were always more polished and well put together, but Treyarch has ambition and a willingness to change, so even if their games run less smoothly and look worse, they offer more and have more ideas.

Pretty good insight. I find Trey Arch to be the one willing to take chances more where as IW just wants to play it safe. IW is good but not as good as Trey Arch, who makes FAR better campaigns than IW.

And I am being serious in this thread. COD is my favorite FPS game. No I am not a kid, I am an adult (22). And in my culture we are considered to be men at the age of 13. So I have been an adult longer than most people here.

If people do not like COD then it is ok with me. But they don't have good reasons to hate it. Not liking something is different, but hating it is just silly.

Half Life-Better SP than COD, since it does not have MP, at least not on consoles. But some parts are too slow, COD campaigns are non stop in your face action.

ShadowMoses900

As I glanced over your post (not actually reading it because I know it would lower my IQ if I did) I happened to read this post.

First, not on consoles? Who cares. That doesn't mean the game doesn't exist. Everybody also knows that with HL2 came CSS (launched in the same package) and the entire Source Engine for pretty much endless amounts of content.

Next, you believe that non stop action makes a good game? I'm going to go ahead and burst your little bubble of ignorance and say that not all gamers like shallow, linear shooters. You're making some pretty big ass assumptions and arguing along those lines yet are calling other people trolls.

Tell me a game before call of duty 4 that had EXP system that allowed you to obtain more guns and perks. Tell me a game that had a perk system before it. Battlefield had custom loadouts but I can't think of any game that had these elements. Just tell me which one had it and I will concede that

How did I fail? TF does everything KZ does but poorly. You have the Sniper class like KZ, but it sucks unlike KZ. You have the Spy class like the Infilitraitor in KZ, but once again it sucks unlike KZ. If they wanted to copy KZ they should have made the graphics better for TF. It looks like a last gen game, reminds me of Wind Waker. Which btw is also better than TF.

Also, I'm just going to assume that you're bad at COD and KZ. See how your logic works? It is broken once again.

Prove Valve is better. Prove those games are better.

I know you are a super troll. But I do not see how any of thse games are better. I played all of them by the way, except for DOTA is, probably some dumb PC game only hermits pretend to play. Here is my quick review for each of those games:

Half Life-Better SP than COD, since it does not have MP, at least not on consoles. But some parts are too slow, COD campaigns are non stop in your face action.

Team Fortres-Plays like a Killzone wannabe. Not good and boring. Plus no one plays it online anymore, that's how boring it was. And there are like what? 5 maps or something? Glad I did not by this, I would have been pissed.

Left 4 Dead-Total waste of money, short and no variety. Rental at best. Waste of money and totally overrated. I gave it a 6 in my review but only because it can be fun with friends on a rainy day but that's it.

Counter Strike GO-Never played this one, but I have played CS before. Totally full of hackers. But lot's of user made content totally beats COD map packs. BUT! COD has far better game play, so once again COD wins.

As for Steam well, it's pretty much just a big store, and a rip off at that. If they ban you then you can't play your games anymore, you don't own any of your games on Steam. And on top of this the games are too highly priced, they should be cheaper than console versions sine they are downloads. Steam only has good sales.

IW and Trey Arch have done far more for the FPS genre today than Valve. This is why they are the FPS kings and Valve is not.

Lol. Still trying to redefine the word "proof" I see.

Battlefield 2, Planetside both had EXP systems.

Perk system was in Fallout 1 and 2. It was not hard to take that system and say "hey, it was fun there, let's use it here" and then put it in their game. If you want to streatch it, CoD 4 was the first game to use their specific perk system in an FPS but the idea of bonuses were introduced way back with Tribes and the custom loadouts there. Your armors and stuff gave you certain abilities, much like perks. It was just an evolution of a system that was there.

Speaking of Tribes, they had 100% custom loadouts too.

Planetside had 100% free form classes with a 100% customizable loadout system. You didn't just pick your weapons and equipment, you actually stored them in an RPG style inventory system. You unlocked new ranks which unlocked certs and let you unlock new weapons and equipment for different playstyles.

You're pretty obviously trolling. First off the original team fortress came out long before KZ, so TF/TF2 arent copying it. TF2 I'm sure plays nothing like KZ, and TF2 is a better looking and more creative game than KZ.

I do fine at COD, I just hate all the BS they put in to reward failure

battlefield 2 had custom layout not the exp perk system that call of duty 4 had

No, it had a custom loadout, just very limited.

Planetside and Tribes 2 had full custom loadouts.

There are plenty of reasons to hate COD: martyrdom, death streaks, dead mans hand, second chance/final stand, etc

All those things make COD great, Death Streaks is no longer in COD if I recall. I do not own MW3, but it was not in Black Ops. But Death Streaks tride to balance the game out.

That other stuff is just part of why COD is the best FPS ever made. It makes it more skill based as well.

Your topic and poll ask two different questions. Infinity Ward made the better Call of Duty games.

The KING of the FPS genre is Valve.

Not as good as COD. COD took everything BF and every other shooter did, and did it right. This is why COD is the king.

BF you just walk around forever. I don't recall it having an XP system until Bad Company, which was only so-so of a game. And I played all BF games, even BF3, and I played them on PC mostly. I know what I am talking about.

I would play Golden Eye Reloaded for PS3 over BF any day. And I am being serious, not trolling.

There are plenty of reasons to hate COD: martyrdom, death streaks, dead mans hand, second chance/final stand, etc

All those things make COD great, Death Streaks is no longer in COD if I recall. I do not own MW3, but it was not in Black Ops. But Death Streaks tride to balance the game out.

That other stuff is just part of why COD is the best FPS ever made. It makes it more skill based as well.

Death streaks are in MW3. If COD is so great, why dont you own MW3? And no that other stuff is BS ways to reward failure, not any form of skill. Idiot troll

MW3 is awful awful game. The map design was a disaster in teh game. I've never played a game that was as broken as that game.

Battlefield 2

Not as good as COD. COD took everything BF and every other shooter did, and did it right. This is why COD is the king.

BF you just walk around forever. I don't recall it having an XP system until Bad Company, which was only so-so of a game. And I played all BF games, even BF3, and I played them on PC mostly. I know what I am talking about.

I would play Golden Eye Reloaded for PS3 over BF any day. And I am being serious, not trolling.

No...you're trolling

I did not feel like buying MW3. I do not like games with short campaigns so did not see it being worth full price. I will get it when it get's lower. However Black Ops 2 is day 1 for me, I have it pre ordered and everything.

And it does not reward you for failure, it tries to give noobs a way to win. It's like Mario Kart, the people in last place get the best items to help them and give them a chance.

You just suck at COD, this is why you hate it. It is takes too much skill for you. So you have to stick to slow and boring games like BF where you just walk around forever and shoot 5 people at the most because you are not good enough to play COD. You should add me on PSN, I will help you get better at COD.

What you do is make sure you have rapid fire and then sit in a few areas I will show you, then when people come buy you shoot them. This is a great and complex strategy but it works. This is how I win. For Kill Streaks I recommend using something easier like Supply Crates or something.

[QUOTE="ShadowMoses900"]

Prove Valve is better. Prove those games are better.

I know you are a super troll. But I do not see how any of thse games are better. I played all of them by the way, except for DOTA is, probably some dumb PC game only hermits pretend to play. Here is my quick review for each of those games:

Half Life-Better SP than COD, since it does not have MP, at least not on consoles. But some parts are too slow, COD campaigns are non stop in your face action.

Team Fortres-Plays like a Killzone wannabe. Not good and boring. Plus no one plays it online anymore, that's how boring it was. And there are like what? 5 maps or something? Glad I did not by this, I would have been pissed.

Left 4 Dead-Total waste of money, short and no variety. Rental at best. Waste of money and totally overrated. I gave it a 6 in my review but only because it can be fun with friends on a rainy day but that's it.

Counter Strike GO-Never played this one, but I have played CS before. Totally full of hackers. But lot's of user made content totally beats COD map packs. BUT! COD has far better game play, so once again COD wins.

As for Steam well, it's pretty much just a big store, and a rip off at that. If they ban you then you can't play your games anymore, you don't own any of your games on Steam. And on top of this the games are too highly priced, they should be cheaper than console versions sine they are downloads. Steam only has good sales.

IW and Trey Arch have done far more for the FPS genre today than Valve. This is why they are the FPS kings and Valve is not.

Also CoD takes very little skill to play, to play it with the best is a different story but comparing BF to CoD at which is the easier to pick up and get a lot of kills it's CoD.

You're the one who talked about BF3 sucking before and when you explained it was just you being an idiot in the game not knowing what to do. That and you didn't know you had to hold the knife button to kill someone and thought it was a glitch. Also you complained that the guns had bullet spread and that they didn't fire in straight lines. You couldn't get more casual if you tried buddy

I had way more fun with Golden Eye Reloaded then I ever did with BF or TF or any of those other games. But I had more fun with COD than I did Golden Eye Reloaded. What does that tell you? That COD is clearly the better game.

Alright guys, he worded the thread wrong. This is a thread about IW vs Treyarch, not about any other developers... So stop naming other companies becuase that's not what the topic is about.

You think custom loadouts, EXP systems, and boosters were brought in by CoD? Also other multiplayer ideas? Every mode in CoD has been found in games before CoD.

You really know nothing about FPSs before 2007 did you?

Tell me a game before call of duty 4 that had EXP system that allowed you to obtain more guns and perks. Tell me a game that had a perk system before it. Battlefield had custom loadouts but I can't think of any game that had these elements. Just tell me which one had it and I will concede that

All games are casual, no such thing as hardcore gaming. You are a joke and so is everyone else that uses it.

Listen dude, I would school you on COD. You can add me on PSN but since you only have PC that is impossible. COD people are better at FPS games and games in general than people who play BF and other games.

I have played BF, you just walk around bored out of your mind. I call it Walking Field because that is all you do. Everyone at start steals vehicles and just hogs them, and it takes FOREVER to get to the objective, when you do the match is over.

And the game is very buggy like I showed you. You shoot at people and only the first bullet will hit, the others just fly around all over the place. And the kinfe, you pull it out but it does nothing, it just get's stuck no matter how much you click it.

This does not happen in COD, BF should be more like it. The kife should be auto. BTW did you know that in Black Ops 2 you will be able to use TWO knives!? It's going to be amazing!

You will be missing out on this fun though unfortunately because you are too egotistical with pretending to be "hardcore" and playing boring games.

Those two movies are amazing, master pieces. They are probably in the top 50 greatest movies of all time I bet. On my list my favorite film is LOTR, at least modern favorites anyway. For classic that is hard to say, there are too many. And if I count foreign films because there are some really amazing ones.

Fight Club is a great film though. I love that one a lot. I write screen plays for fun, it is a hobby of mine. I have done some films for 48 hour film festival but I do not want to share them because you guys lack artistic integrity.

They make solid MP, but the game play is bad. You can't even aim down sights in Halo, lol this is not 1998, so outdated. COD is the future. There is a reason it is number 1, Halo was only good last gen.

The campaigns for Halo were terrible this gen. I gave Halo 3 a 7 in my in depth expert reivew because of this. Only good thing about the games are lot's of features, but more quantity does not equal quality. Halo proves this time and time again.

If you like Halo more than COD then that is cool, but COD is clearly the superior game.
