A few things...

I want to talk about a few things that have been bothering me lately in multiplayer.

The first is how some better players talk down to new or not so good players. Personally I'm not an awesome player, but I've been getting better. There's no reason to yell at another player about their KD and tell them they are what is ruining this game. (Yes, I actually heard that today.) Not everyone is awesome when they first get into playing fps games. I sucked 3 months ago when I started, and I'm sure you did, too.

Everyone has a different skill level. If everyone played exactly the same, every game would probably end in a tie. So if you see some one who is doing badly, tell them to go on youtube and watch some game play and watch how others play and learn from it. There are too many assholes in multiplayer and that's what is really ruining the game, it makes it not fun. Also, its just a game, if you have to judge some ones self worth on a video game, then maybe you have some issues you need to deal with.

The second thing is people need to communicate more, tell people what's going on a certain part of the map. If you get ambushed when capping a flag in DOM, tell your team, let them know how many and where. This pretty much goes for any game type.

Just using your mic to tell your team how much they suck isn't doesn't make them better and automatically make them know what you think the should do. If you think you're such a great player, act like it.

Look at any pro team, the don't just sit back and bitch at their team mates and say they suck when they are losing, they communicate and try to figure out how to win.

Just some stuff for you to think about.

Getting better :)

Just had the best game of my MW3 career. I went 34-20. Now I know I'm not elite or anything, but it made me happy and that is what this game is all about; enjoyment.

I have to thank a lot of youtube commentators for helping me improve my game. If you want to get better, watch some of these guys videos, they give tips and you can learn a lot by just watching them.

New DLC review.

Just got done, playing DOM on Piazza, get map. You might want to change your set up a little, if you have a Reaper or AC-130 use it for things like DOM. While the flags are generally out in the open you be able to keep the enemy off your flags. But you probably won't be racking up the kills like you would in maps like Village or Mission. While this map may not be much bigger than the stock maps we had, it feels bigger, there's 5 or more routes you can take to get from one side of the map to the other, with multiple levels. so get use to taking stairs.

Liberation, this map is a snipers players dream. Tons of open space and the map feels huge. Too many camping spots plus stationary guns. definitely running with choppers and reapers or AC-130s will get you tons of kills. Domination sucks if you don't have a tight team, this would be a good Team Deathmatch map. If you want to try and get your KDR up you should try this map. It's a fun map, just frustrating.

After just being released these maps aren't popping up as much as I would have hoped and it's kind of a pain getting into games with so little people playing.

It'd be nice if these were the only ones available under the DLC MP, they are really the only reason anyone would want to go to that section. I'm thinking it's going to take some time until more people get the maps before it's easier to get into a game and play them.



Obviously they haven't fixed the spawning system, I have been spawn killed so many times in the last half hour I lost count.

Just had an awesome game, my best so far

I got done having my best game. It was super fun, and I can't believe that I topped the leaderboard on my team and 3rd over all.

and here is the stuff from elite showing the stats and what setup I had.

Wondering how Weapon XP works?

before you decide to use one of your prestige tokens on the double weapon xp check out this video.



Thanks to TmarTn and Machinima Respawn for posting this. check out their youtube channels for more good videos.

Use your mic!

If you only use your mic to say "ugh, this team sucks" communicate more, don't think that the rest of the team should know what you're thinking.

When playing in randoms there is a variety of player some more experienced some less.

Teams that communicate win more often than not.

You don't need to say "they're taking A" the game already says that, but if you go there and see three guys or just one, it helps to say "three on A" then the rest of the team knows what they are up against when going there.

A look at some new content coming this year

the COD youtube page uploaded a little video showcasing some stuff coming to MW3.
