So is this game worth picking up? It sounds like from the majority of the posters on here that it is, just don't want to waste money on something that isn't much of an upgrade.

The multiplayer is much improved from MW2. Which goes without saying it's vastly improved from Black Ops as well.

Where are you see the improved multiplayer? Sure there are some new game types and maps, but other than that I don't see much of a difference from Black Ops. I will say the starter weapons are way better than before. Overall I don't feel like they did much to improve online multiplayer play.

Survival mode is absolutely amazing by itself, but the normal Deathmatch, Domination, etc nothing has changed.

I don't if it has been server lag or what, but about 75% of my deaths in Deathmatch are from people not even aiming or having their crosshairs on me at all. I have snipers killing me when their aiming 10ft to the right or left. I'm hoping that's just lag and it gets better, but if it isn't...then some serious fine tuning needs to be done.

Have you unlocked the Hybrid Scope (for Assault Rifles) or the HAMR Scope for the P90? If you haven't, it's a scope that switches from a 3x acog, to a red dot sight. WINNING

The new maps are all really aggressive gamepley maps, not much time for sniping. Resistance is my favorite so far.

Kill Confirmed is a pretty slick game. Every time you kill someone, they drop dog tags, it's up to you to pick them up. You have to pick up 65 dog tags to win the game. So far it's the best game mode for me on the game.

Golden guns on the opening ranks?!?! Don't mind if I do.

Gun add-ons. Kick, 2 attachments, etc... Awesome.

Skorpions as a secondary?! Again... Don't mind if I do.

Semi-auto grenade launcher?!?! :lol: AMAZING. Sure it isn't overly powerful, but two grenade's at the opponents boots will put em down.

This list can go on.

There's also a few things that can definitely be improved, and will...

Spawning is a little chaotic in the game currently, but they've always done a good job fixing those kinds of issues.

The lag, needs fixed, plain and simple. About 35% of the games I get into are a bit laggy.

I wonder if the lag has anything to do with the sheer number of people playing it right now.......I've noticed a more of a lag than previous years as well.

I'd say that's part of it. But there's always lag at the launch of these games.

This just makes it sound like it's too easy to kill people. Two scopes, semi-auto grenade launcher, Skorpion secondary.. I really don't like any of those things at all.

I'll still buy the game eventually. I love COD games. But, I'm more than happy with Battlefield and Skyrim (assuming I'm happy with it in advance) for now.

Skorpion takes alot to kill unless you are aiming for the head. The semi-auto grenade launcher isn't over powered at all, if anything it's under powered (as are all explosives except RPG type launchers, IMP's, Bouncing Betties). The dual scope is SICK!

I've played every Call of Duty game since the original (except for MW3). My favorite campaign so far is probably Call of Duty 2. Favorite multiplayer is Modern Warfare 1. For anyone who has played all of the games, or just the Modern Warfares, which one is your favorite? Is MW3 the Best MW?

Too early to tell... One thing I will admit is this multi-player is much more like the original MW and not so much like MW2.
