I liked it.

I think, like in MW2, in an objective game, your team had better have someone who can shoot shit down, and quickly.

the kick on the guns is more realistic than MW2 was in my opinion.

the sound on the new head set was fantastic.
Yeah, really need to have people who know what it is going on shooting shit down. Copters are a bitch in this game.

I only broke out the 50cal 1 game to see how it felt. It felt wonderful. I probably will not start sniping until I have a better feel for the maps and the traffic patterns.

Game is pretty fun. I like the mechanics and the feel of the game more than Blops. I’m not sure about the maps yet. I didn’t really notice a ton of variety but I’m not sure that I’ve seen all the maps yet.

I had a little bit of a rough start as I was that dumbass running and gunning on new maps which meant I got camped to death. We had a really crappy first Dom game as I think everybody, including myself, forgot how to play Dom. However, things were clicking by the end of the night.

Overall, a very solid A. Feels like MW2 again and that is a good thing. I’d really just like to see some different maps. The burnt out buildings and cars everywhere gets a bit repetitive.

Dome sucks ass. It's so small and I seem to spawn as a guy is coming around the corner.

It REALLY sucks for domination; we played a game last night where they positioned themselves to where we could only spawn in the bunker and they just kept us pinned down with choppers and grenades.

I had problems connecting to anyone who sent me invites last night. I finally got in a room with some of you by clicking "join game". Hopefully that will all smooth out soon.

I like the catwalk around the actual dome on Dome. You can pick off guys running out of or into the door and loading dock area on the main building. You can also get guys running to and from the main building and the underground bunker areas.

Zombies has always been 4 and Spec Ops was 2 on MW2. Beefy and I finished all the Spec Ops on MW2. Some were great, some were a complete bitch.

Played a few rounds last night. Started with Kill Confirm and was terrible, might have been the room, but I was negative K/D in the rounds I played. Switched over to TDM and was better. I ended the night 59/56 so things will get better.

Positives, siting is way better than Blops and BF3, but the sound is just terrible. Guns, like Trendon said, sound like they are space age. The Turtle Beach headsets amplify the horrible sound, BF3 is hands down winner. Maps are WAY small.

Anyone considering ELITE? That's the price of another game. Yeah, it will pay for 3 maybe 4 map packs? I like Dice's strategy by giving a map pack away for pre-ordering, the ELITE seems like it's for nerds. I wouldn't use it except for the maps

I still dislike this game, but Mosh Pit will always be near and dear to my heart. It brings me back to SOCOM 2's medley. I am talking to some Battlefield and Counterstrike people and they blow it off. No, a mode where there is a variety of game types across different maps is a very big thing.
