Infinity Ward will especially be listening to their fans when Modern Warfare 3 launches. Battfield devs only do an ok job as actually listening to their fans, but they aint no inifinity ward. Cant wait for MW3

:lol: With the rap they've been getting i hope they do, i'd honestly hate to be in a conversation at the pub and someone asks

"So where do you work"..

"i'm a game developer"

"Oh cool who do you work for?"

"Er... Just a small company you won't know them"

"Oh i enjoy gaming tell me i'm sure i'll know!"

"Er.... NO!".

Well I guess they do listen to their fans. Fans buy $15 map packs, Infinity Ward gives theme $15 map packs. Fans want unchanged gameplay, Infinity Ward gives them unchanged gameplay. Fans want camping, Infinity Ward gives them camping spots. Infinity Ward has been giving fans what they want ever since Modern Warfare 2.

I thought Infinity Ward moved to Respawn?

How can the half-dead corpse formerly known as Infinity Ward have the brains/ears to listen?

Infinity Ward is still going through hell. There's a reason why Sledgehammer and Raven are doing major contributions and that's because Infinity Ward is a dead company. I'd like to say that IW will listen to everything the fans say, but it's not their call anymore.

There are very few companies that truly listen to their fans... Infinity Ward isn't one of them.

They do listen to the fans, and infact Infinity Ward has proved they're one of the best at it. They put out the same game just witheven more out of control non stop over the top action. That is exactly what the fans want.

Yeah it counts. CoD hasn't had good support since CoD 4. BC2 had a multiple number of balancing fixes and free DLC as well as a whole expansion to it.

No, it actually wasn't. They were maps already in the game, but the versions released in the free DLC were completely different files.

IIRC it was Infinity Ward who insulted all of their PC fans and decided to go along with their stupid IW.net system that no one wanted. Activision takeover later or not, they knew what they were doing and they should be ashamed of it.

Then why aren't they bring back servers instead of using P2P? Plenty of fans asked for that and they said, "No!"

They didn't listen to their fans with MW2, so they have a lot to live up to before they talk about listening to their fans.

Threads like these can make it really hard to defend MW3. >_>

Anyways IW really seem to have listen to their fanbase this time around. Now hopefully they can keep it up after their game launched.

It's how they got such stupid perks in MW2. Remember in COD4 where there was a message in the message of the day saying to send in your ideas for the next MW2.

I'll be flying fighter jets in BF3, strafing COD converts who are thinking that my jet is just a temporary killstreak perk.

10 minutes later when I'm still strafing them they might get a clue.

If I'm nice, I'll parachute out and knife them in the back to grab their dogtags for my collection.

No, they were trying to fix a broken game they released. 2/3rd of them were fixes and I remember the second one being 900MB's....

I am really looking forward to MW3. You can tell IW listens to fans as the fans continue to buy and love it and critics like CoD too. BF3 looks mediocre at best and I think it's just praised so much because there's not really any other military FPSes if you don't like CoD (I don't see how people could not like CoD though).

So you're saying that it's impossible to hate the COD franchise. Here are some reasons to why some people hated the rcentvgames in the franchise.

1. The buying off of reviewers

2. The broken multiplayer in MW2 that rewarded you for playing cheap.I determined this from watching my cousins play the MP of this game.

3. The messed up story line(I saw this when I played the SP in MW2).

BF3? Mediocre? Why because they actually change and improved the gameplay, engine, and more?

Easy how to see people don't like CoD. It's a terrible SP and really imbalanced MP that caters to casuals with very bad gunplay.

they would have already made a real game instead of copying the previous 946587365387 cods

they can say wheatever they feel like it, people arent stupid, the facts talk louder than any "marketing", except for those who are gonna buy the same overpriced game again for the fifth time or so.

1. No they didn't, that was Activision.

2. It doesn't, if you have any evidence of this please show me, if the online was so easy to win, then everyone would be great. There are players with high skill and low skill, a low skill player can not just start being cheap and instantly start winning.

3. I'm not sure what is messed up about it, the campaign was a great improvement over CoD4, and MW2 Spec Ops are the most fun I've had in co-op this gen. The varied tactical missions were unique and fresh, each type (round survival, co-op protection, stealth, progress through enemies, training course, driving) required a different tactical approach.

Yeah because getting headshots with uzis across the map is really a great multiplayer :lol: Why does it encourage camping so much then? Sorry, but that chart proves a lot. MW2 was a downgrade in every possible way. Nitpicking? Sorry, but that is far from nitpicking.

So paying off reviewers by giving them a very nice vacation, means great reviews? Wanna know why it gets so many sales? Because it caters to the casuals and people who are new to video games. There is no learning curve and no skill.

PC gamers care about 100% of that chart. Look at MW2's User score on any site including this one. It's no where near the review score.

Yes, because Infinity Ward has such a good track record of "listening to the fans." :roll:

Sorry but the this is not the developers behind MW2. This is Sledgehammer games. Do some research before you come hating you idiot

Maybe you should do some research before coming here and blantently insulting people. Infinity Ward is still the primary developer for MW3. Sledgehammer and Raven are simply providing support in the areas that IW can't handle in their current situation.
