MW3 will have dedicated servers

[Wibby]

So it looks like modern warfare 3 will have dedicated servers on the PC.

guess they didn't like the all out cry for the heads when they yanked them in previous versions :)

But will the system ACTUALLY work. 99% of the time I can't see anything in BlackOps. I couldn't even find the WiH server.

Let me translate for you:

"We're pissing ourselves thinking that BF3 might sell more copies than us, so we're going to cobble together some sort of crappy net code in the hopes it will sell better"

Guess what? I agree with Furby- I'm not buying it. In fact, I'll buy TWO copies of BF3 just to hang one on the wall.

After having lost all my damn stats in BlackOps, and having to wait about a week just to get my prestige back and my level, I think I may forget about MW3 and stick with BF3.

Call of Duty is dead. Until they get their heads out of EA's collective asses and actually figure out how to put a new game correctly instead of rehashed regurgitated CoD:MW over and over again, I don't plan on every buying another CoD game again.

So we'll see how many years it takes for them to figure it out. Until then I'll be FRAGing players on BF3.

I doubt they will ever change anything about the games because they continue sell so damn well even though it is basically the same game every year. Until one of the games flops and doesn't sell for shit COD will continue to be what it is and has been. And because of that I'll be playing the hell out of BF3 as well.

It's kinda like the Madden football games. Same shit, different graphics, year after year.

Hey now... I'm finally getting Madden again after having it banned from my household after an incident with NBA2k10 plus an 360 controller meeting the floor and snapping into pieces. :(

MW3 has nothing on this:

^This is true innovation, plus 64 player MP. THIS is GAMING, not some crappy little competitor that wishes they were this awesome. What Modern Warfare? The CoD series died with World at War.

Once, I found out that BF3 was doing 64 player servers... I was sold. I've pre-ordered that badboy and waiting for the day that I can play it.

COOL!

I think they learned that the # of people playing Black Ops is considerably higher than MW2 due entirely to the matchmaking crap on MW2, and total lack of any admins on any match.

Only downside is having to go through Origin. :/

Think I'll wait on BF3 for Steam...if that ever happens.
