I agree 100%. The servers are sometimes crazy but it seems like afetr the Fall Update they are ALOT better. The gameplay can not be better.
[QUOTE="MindFreeze"]I guess this is just personal preference but I really don't like most of the maps:(DragonXx
wow thats how i felt about the game that will most likely win GOTY, Halo 3.
btw sorry for doubleposting? This game doesnt have too many flaws for me, I liked it pretty well. From the Singleplayer to the Multiplayer it was fun.
I really dont see the greatness of the multiplayer. I think COD 2 was the perfect multiplayer game. It was more of a sniping game. All COD 4 is to me is run from behind and shoot people. Dont think to much skill is invloved there.
Plus the sprint feature has ruined sniping.
Huge Cod4 fan, right here, this guy.
But the @$#(*@!!!!! Servers being all bogged down, slow, on crack, whatever. Is a HUGE problem when you get a game primarily for it's online multiplayer. I agree with what someone said that since the update it seems better, but it still isn't quite there. I also think this should be GoTY, but we all know it won't be.
TPTB just really need to get the bugs out, and whether it's XBL or Infinity Ward, or something else entirely, it needs to be fixed, we all payed $60+ for the game, we all pay $52+ for Live, I am not trying to get all flipped out over it (I know it's been done to death already) but my understanding kinda went out the window when I started to think about it. This is one of those things that these companies should be able to prepare for and deal with if not prior to launch, immediately after.
Sorry everyone for ranting about it. The game is awesome at the end of the day.

As much as i loved COD2(I was a sniper myself) that's all there was to the game. What you pointed out was more of an opinion rather than a flaw. COD4 gives players the versatility to choose from a variety of guns, that if used wisely, can kill opponents all the time.
-Servers are sometimes bad
-Don't like how sometimes you join a game where you're down by a WHOLE LOT
-True skill could've been better(back when i wasin the first playthrough lvl 20 i would b playing with first prestige modes)
-When a host backs out, all players in your party should back out automatically(it does it sometimes, not all the time)
-Sniper headshots in the enemies' killcam shows it as if they shot a meter to the right of your torso and got a headshot
But other than that, notice how i didn't have any gameplay flaws because honestly there isn't.
Ppl really the game isnt short, i played on veteran and it took a good while.
Maybe you should get out more?
my only complaints..
no online guest or co-op (don't care so much about co-op, but every game shouldsupport guests IMO)
the way your UAV/Airstrike disappears when you get the next multiplier (get 5 kills, then kill 2 more, you lose your airstrike for the chopper)
Headshots dont always work becuae of the juggernaut perk, camon ppl dont blame devs just cuz you dont have the right layout, and to KET87 you play Gears which is seriously more flawed so idk what your talking about
I just don't see why everyone thinks CoD4 is so great. It has just as many problems and issues as any other game. But everyone is so blindly fanboy to it just like people accuse of Halo. As I said before about matchmaking, the weapon customization is weak as hell one customization at a time thats lame, server issues occur pretty much everyday, the single player isn't nothing spectacular, the entire concept of prestige mode is asinine why not just make the level go to 100 and make more creative challenges?.Ket87
You arent looknig at the game as a whole man. The multiplayer is extremely fluid in COD4. You say prestige mode has no purpose. yes it does. it keeps you entertained if you get bored of being a 55. Does it MAKE you go into prestige mode? NO, so that's soemthing not worth even mentioning. And if you dont go into it, then you have tons of challeneges to complete that make it all worthwhile. Cuztomization isn't weak. What more do you want? You can choose out of a vairety of weapons, change their scopes according to how you like, HUNDREDS OF PERK POSSIBILITIES and the camo isnt much but it's still something. Halo certainly doesn't do that. The challenegs are perfect the way they are. There are easy, medium and ahrd ones. They're not gonna put impossible chalennges for no reason. use logic dude.The server doesn't lag every game man, if it does, then your connection is horrible. Take into account that over a million people play this game, and for a good reason too. I love this game, but i must mention that I was one of the people who waited till midnight for HAlo 3. I was number 10 in line out of 160. I played it for about a month and a half, and once this game came out Nov. 6th, i havnt touched it again. Yes, COD4 is that damn good.
The multiplayer is a lot of fun, but the options feel pretty limited. Some of the most fun I've had with Halo 3 has been playing online with a friend, so it's too bad that Call of Duty 4 doesn't let you play with guests online or over a LAN.
P. S. - Is there a way to make the rest of the maps available while playing splitscreen?

1 Check your facts only 60-70,000 ever play this at one time not a million. And even when Halo 3 had 1 mill+ playing it didn't cause any slowdown in searches or in gamelag (though this is a byproduct of using P2P connections instead of dedicated servers).
2 Picking just a scope for a weapon is hardly customization. Maybe if you could pick scopes, and grenade launchers, and laser sights then maybe it could be called customization. If you really had some options to work with then you could really make that weapon yours. Not everyone always using the M16 or another rifle with the Red Dot.
3 By server issues I don't mean lag I mean finding games. It tends to take alot longer to find games in CoD4 then any other game. And some times it just flat out doesn't find a game and goes back to the menu. But when I am in games I rarely lag even with my crappy university provided internet connection.
4 The perks would be a little better if they just gave you 3 slots and let you fill them as you please, not this slot has to explosives, this slot has to be damage related, this slot has to be miscellaneous things like martyrdom.
5 What I meant by the challenges was if they would have not included Prestige Mode (which I believe is just a filler thought up by lazy developers) they could have stretched the level up to 100 and add more challenges and make it worth actually doing all of the challenges as the progression in difficulty to level would be pretty high if they increased it beyond 55.

1)Customization is perks is fine. No it's BALANCED. trust me i have thought of having all free slots, but sometimes that would be unfair. Like i guarantee you there would've been a "noob perk combo". maybe double tap w/ overkill withincreased bullet damage. imagine a P90 tearing up the place like that, it would be unfair.
2) By increasing lvls that high, it would be impossible to keep on cming up with new guns/perks/etc. it would get boring and when you reach lvls 70-100, it would've been a MAJOR PAIN to progress. Plus, if you're really dedicated, i believe that prestige 10 has two new perks. I dunno. but point is lvl 100, would drag on and on and feel more like a chore rather than a reward. Let's not forget that i think there aren't 100 military insginias.
3) I dont experience gamesearching issues. the only times games end or dont begin for me is when host ends it.
4) about the cuztomization thing again, all that in one gun, yes it's real, but we go back to the balancing issue. you imagine playing a new-comer to the game vs. a bad*** that has a ton of stuff loaded into that bad boy? It just isn't fair.
I find COD4 to be a breather in this world of FPS video games. It's simple to pick up and great enough to play non-stop. Has to be shooter of the year and minimum bronze for GoTY
MMmm how fun is it to sit in a building and not move or shoot until you see some one, that doesent really seem more fun the running behind someone and shooting them..I really dont see the greatness of the multiplayer. I think COD 2 was the perfect multiplayer game. It was more of a sniping game. All COD 4 is to me is run from behind and shoot people. Dont think to much skill is invloved there.
Plus the sprint feature has ruined sniping.

Why does everyone complain about the length, if you play it on hard, its extremly hard, and after you beat it you can play it again.
but I just wish More games implemented the matchmaking system halo uses, i guess thats my only flaw because sometimes teams are very unfair.
the single player is rediculously short.
that's my only fault with it.
brilliant game
dolph_666
it's short, yet, but it's some what difficult on Veteran. I've only got the "mile high club" level left to do and it's driving me nuts. MP is absolutely brilliant and I'm glad I have CoD4 to play seeing how Bungies ripping of their loyal fanbase with the new set of 3 too expensive maps.
CoD4 is as perfect as they come when it comes down to the complete package. 6-8 hours isn't really THAT bad when you consider how deep the MP game is. Can't say the same for other short games that DON'T offer ANY multiplayer what-so-ever. :)
