Why COD reigns supreme over any other FPS...

Controls. period.

COD has mastered/perfected the controls of FPS. No other game comes close. The closest imo is Halo.

When i played Killzone or bad company i couldnt aim for ****. My cross hairs was all over the place. Even when the enemy is close to me i have a hard time shooting them. Now i know it takes time to get used to it but why waste time to get used to it when its obvious that the gameplay is broken? Now i know some of you are going to be like "well its because its realistic and takes skill herp derp". To that all i can do is laugh.

In real life its not hard to aim from point A to point B nice and fast. Im not going to have a problem with overcompensation. Im going to lock on you pretty quick and take you out.

In COD the controls are nice, sweet, tight and precise exactly how it would be in real life especially if you are a trained soldier for crying out loud. I feel like im drunk when i play killzone and bad company. Im just spraying all over the place and wrestling with my controller just to kill a guy rite in front of my face.

COD has the most realistic controls. And people keep on buying them because of its perfection. SW's complains about rehash...well, when something is perfected....you cant do much to improve it can you? If you want improvments wait for COD 9 when it comes out on PS4 and xbox 720. The only improvements with be the amazing graphics while maintaining 60fps......but for now...60fps>>>>graphics. so stop crying.

Simplistic controls made for kids = best FPS of all time? Autoaim means quality? Stupidly large hitboxes and blast radius are good? No recoil, no bullet spread, and laser bullets means better controls?

Realistic controls? So much wrong it should be bannable. If you want realism, play a real man's game.

60FPS > graphics? Why can't we have both?

Yeah but they don't even have bees or Truckasauros.:?

Ha ha! Bioshock & Bad Company.:P

Yeah, Autoaim can get you a lot of fans.

60fps helps, but COD is arcade style, KZ3 and BC2 try to add some realism to the way weapons feel so it's not as easy as COD.SaltyMeatballs

like i said...

A trained special forces soldier wont have a promlem with recoil and aiming like a drunk. they are going to lock on you and take you out fast and smove. so please, enough with the "realistic gun play"

There is nothing realistic about CoD. Even Battlefield has arcadey-styIe gameplay but it had far more realism than CoD will ever have.

Giving casuals the illusion of skill=/= perfected.

I guess you've never held a real rifle. Even at 4-5 lbs you can't move nearly as quickly as you think. Thrown on 30 kilos of gear and then try to move like a CoD character. It's unpossible.

Even trained, veteran special forces can't move around like they live in a weightless environment. The levels of recoil in CoD are meant to fit the free-flowing gameplay, not be realistic. If it was realistic it would be to frustrating.

I enjoy CoD because it isn't realistic.

Nah CoD is perfect for the speed of the game. Killzone and BC2 both have differnt paces. Homefront have a much more BC2 pace but tried to play like CoD and the results were horrible.

im talking about aiming from point A to point B. it should be smooth and fast. not jiggling all over the place. and yes movments in COD isnt realist but to be fair the characters you play as arnt wearing 30 kilos of gear.

Omega-316

You still don't move nearly as "fluid" as CoD would make you think. BC2 and BF3 have a much better sense of weight and movement.

floaty? FLOATY?? killzone and its floatyness is the main reason it failed. COD has fast precise aiming. where did you get floaty from?

Omega-316

Where did you get CoD has precise aiming from!? :|

Large hitboxes and autoaim =/= precise.

Again, it's not fast in real life at all. You are completely negating the weight of the weapon and momentum.

Hold out your arm with a heavy book and try to point really fast at 2 locations. You'll notice you have slow acceleration and won't beable to stop it easily. There is absolutly nothing realistic about CoD's gameplay other than it takes real-world guns and puts it into a very unrealistic environment.

If you don't know how to aim...it is a problem caused by you. It is not the games problem. BC 2 and KZ have amazing controls if you tweak some settings a bi

Cod realistic? Oh god, this kid knows absolutely nothing about real life. Play Arma 2 then say Cod is realistic, I dare you.

Why do you think you can aim and shoot better in real life? You've obviously never held a gun if you think that's true.

I think the controls being superior is really all preference, I think the Killzone controls are better.

[QUOTE="Omega-316"]if i can aim and shoot better in real life then why must i have trouble in a game? COD is closer to real life then any other game when it comes to aim and shoot. just go to the fire range and shoot a real gun. develope some skill and you will know why aiming should be hard to do in games

Omega-316

Why do you think you can aim and shoot better in real life? You've obviously never held a gun if you think that's true.

"lock on", like auto-aim and quick scoping?

In real life, 1/10,000 bullets makes contact with an enemy solider. Numerous studies by the military have prooven this. This is why we stick with lower caliber weapons so we can shoot more, faster, and more controlled.

LOL this kid? go to the firing range and shoot a gun. i dare you

Omega-316

He's a kid for being correct? You do know bohemian makes simulators for the military right? :| The same people who created ArmA 2?

my aiming isnt perfect i know that. im saying i can aim and move my gun around from target to target smoothly and fast. and when you play as special forces in a game they should be able to lock on targets fast

Omega-316

I highly doubt you can move like one does in CoD and maintain accuracy.

Maybe a Special Forces member does move and act like that. But then so should you, the game shouldn't have to do it for you. Play the game, don't let it play it for you. You don't have autoaim IRL either.

Because its campaign is a tunnel and they just push you forward and the mp is an arcade game anyone can play.

I love the controls on CoD, quick and easy to get

My God are COD threads fun to watch.:lol:

They are one of the few reasons I don't mine the franchises existance.:P
