the funniest thing about this thread is not all the whinning that is going on..but the fact taht when COD3 came out, the same thing happened.

cod2 players didnt like the fact that there were vehicles in the game, and the guns sucked..etc..and the rest of us sucked it up for the first few days..learned how to play cod3 and the rest is just history.

learn the game..just because you thought u were good at cod3 doesnt mean your going to be good at cod4. Maps ARE bigger, weapons ARE better, and over all IW > Treyarch.

and before you try to flame me..i got cod3 when it came out..prob my most played xbox game..but its time to move on.

You do realise this isn't just people trying to be fanboys. This thread contains people whom like myself believe that the weapons, maps and gameplay are better on 3 than 4. The size of a map doesn't matter, it is how it's layed out and fits in with the gameplay. I would say COD4 needs a map like a flat of houses - different room to confuse the enemy, hallways as chokeholds, stairways for different levels. The maps on COD4 seems cheap to me, they should not have picked ones from the sp. As for weapons, how are they better. I would rather have a COD3 weapon, any weapon over it's COD4 counterpart. Don't get me wrong I love my AK-47 with a silencer but it's not nearly as satisfying as an M1Grand. It's not a case of learning the game, After an hour or 2 I knew most of the ins and outs of the game and I have stacked up a days play now. Probably only because there are unlockables which are really just a gimmic to keep people playing when you think about it, and the fact there isn't a lot of ranked games on 3. And you don't just have to move on as time goes by. Somethings will never change, COD3 for me will always be the best yet, even if COD4 is newer and everyone plays that now. It doesn't mean you have to be a sheep and play 4 like everyone else, play something different, which after the release 4 I have started to do.

Your opinion is fine, but don't try and tell me what I know, what i'm doing or what to do because only I decide that and I do things with good reason.

2 piece has been fixed. thank you. now you little girls better get used to it.
The 2 piece IS BACK booo.

I have ONLY played COD4 of all the COD series and the one question I have is does COD3 have Xbox Live split screen?  That's one thing I really wish COD4 had...and the class system in COD3 sounds very interesting.  Are there still a lot of people playing it online?

mmm...no  when COD3 came out people did cry about it, and now theyr'e the same ones taht are still just always claiming how great IW is and how crappy Trayarch is.  In general of course.  You may be the exception, but I know a lot of people on other forums, and it's the same people crying about COD3 now as they were before. 

Some of us did give COD3 a chance and don't undersatnd what's up the butt of the haters, but that's their problem.

XBL connectin problems? http://www.freewebs.com/haximo/ports.htm

What's with all the haters; do be hating, they're just opinions based on the type of play and pro's and con's in each game.  If you look at the games with a objective eye, instead of an subjective eye, you will find that COD3 is a better designed and functioning on-line multiplayer game.  It does not mean that I do not play COD4, because I still do; however, probably not for much long.

I just find that more people enjoy COD4 because it is easier to get kills.  For example I have a friend who bought COD3 4 months ago and he still has a hard time getting kills.  On the other hand, he just started playing COD4 on line this past week and likes it because he can get easy kills.

The main problem with COD4 is there is no rhyme or reason as to who gets the kill - this is do to lag.  It's a different type of lag than COD3.  You don't know if the other play is lagging in COD4.  Its the luck if you kill the other person because they may or may not be there.  It is frustrating when you shoot some one point blank in the back of the head and they kill you.  Watch your kill cams in COD4 and you will see what I mean.  I have never played a game with worst lag than COD4.  Another example, I walk into a room check the corner that everyone hides in, no one is there, so I move on only to be shot in the back.  What the ***, how did I just die? Watch the kill cam.  The guy who killed me was in the corner I checked the whole time.  He watched me enter the room, check the corner and moved on -he simpley shot me in the back.  On my end - he was never there untill after I died.

I still wonder that may be it is just bad real time programming combined with lag.  Either way it destroys any talent a player may have. 

COD 4 fans can say what they want, but the can not refruit the facts.

Long live COD3; it's a game for people who love competition and challenges, not just run and shoot and hope you don't get shot.

I may just be the last thing you see before you re-spawn!

Another thing I noticed.  When I play COD4, I can stop playing at any time.  When I play COD3, it's impossible to tear me away from the xbox 360 - COD3 is like crack!

COD4 in relationship, is like non-alcoholic beer.

Yes it does have online splitscreen...CoD3 that is. Not sure how many are still playing online though...guess you should still be able to find games to play.

The reason you hate cod4 is you stink at it its easy when your good also team play is better on there all you have to do is know what perks your team has.Example search and destroy have a people with claymores and c4 and uav jammers for defending then on attack have people with bobm squad so you dont run over claymores and explosives also have silenced guns so you dont show up on radar it just takes thinking

Believe it or not it takes thinking when you walk out your front door. Any game can be played tactically, if people played the game like you said then it would make it that bit better, but it doesn't often happen. Even if it did, it still wouldn't give it an advantage over 3. When I used to play COD3 people always used to keep me updated on what was going on and so did I, it helped that much that it made us win most of the time. It's not a case of being good like I said before because I am just as good at both games(though I don't want to get better at 4) but it is a matter of opinion. A simple land mine(or whatever it was called) rightly placed in COD3 is 10 times more effective at deciding who wins the game than any perk is in COD4. Both games have their pros and cons no doubt, and they are both very different which is probably the deciding factor. COD3 easily wins fom me in all respects.

COD3 does require you to play very differently and I feel that it does take more skill.  (my opinion of course)

When I first started playing COD4 multiplayer, the first thing I thought was, "Dang, everybody's awesome at this game."  And I didn't think that in a good way.  How could everyone be so good at a game that has been out for a week or so? 

It's because COD4's multiplayer has been severely dumbed down.  Anyone can pick it up and rack up kill after kill.  It's because of the automatic weapons and the small map layouts.

You couldn't do that in COD3.  In COD3, it took time to get good.  And I felt proud when I got better and better at it with the different weapons.  When you won a game in COD3, you felt a surge of triumph because you worked together with your team to get the win. 

I don't feel any of that in COD4.

You nailed it right there.  The game is dumbed down and it's too easy to kill, especially if you camp in one of the many dark corners hidden away in these poorly designed maps.  The perks are generally silly and the lack of one-shot headshots removes yet another incentive to improve.  The game grows boring very quickly, unlike COD3 (or COD2) where you can feel yourself improve and the matches feel epic.  In COD4, I rarely care about winning or losing.  For some reason, it just doesn't seem to matter.  In COD3, you could feel the tide of the games (War and CTF, especially) turning and it really became quite immersive.  I loved it.

Feel exactly the same way. Its not helped by the miniscule times allocated for each gametype. I miss those 1hr long CoD3 TDMs, especially the close ones.

I still think the most fun I've ever had on XBL was a late Saturday night playing in a (random!) 60 minute CTF player match on Mayenne.  The game went back and forth with very even teams and everyone on my team played relatively well together to build up a lead.  However, the other team managed to take our flag in the last minute to tie it up and give them the victory on points.

Inexplicably my team had left, leaving me to fend off a number of onrushing enemies.  If I remember correctly, I took out 4 or 5, but the last made it through.  What a rush, though!   I think I gained two friends from that match.

They are both truly great games.  But the lagging in COD4 is starting to get to me.  It's like someone already said that you can't tell there's lagging until you watch the kill-cam and it pisses you off.  At least in COD3 you see the erratic movements and you know.  One bad thing about COD3 is that you tend to get hung up on things and that they didn't fix the glitches.  But the vehicles and classes increase the teamwork and immersion.  3 is slightly better than 4 and both destroy halo3 in my opinion/.

I also prefer 3s death cam to 4s kill cam. There's nothing worse than watching yourself get hit with the luckiest most random grenade ever.

I like them both

and suck equally at both

I do like how you can actually hide in COD4  and there really is no real NOOB Cannon

It is hard on MP when you first start because you don't have any perks , and competeing agianst guys that have pretty much everything ,

But once you start playing and getting perks , you get alot more competive

Im gonna get flamed out for this but i dont care.

COD4 rocks compared to COD3. The only reason why i played it as it was the first game i got and i had nothing else to play. The WW2 genre is getting stale and old and another WW2 COD game would have been awful. All i play is shooters, Halo, GRAW, COD, R6V, BF2, Gears and many others so i aint bias 2 one game. COD3 was my least favorite next to GRAW. I got soo bored of COD3 its stayed on myshelf almost since i got it. COD4 has not been dumbed down. If you play more team based gametypes like Seach and Destroy it requires teamwork and communication. COD4 resparked my clan in2 playing a game together after R6V.  If you want to play with friends on opposite teams make a private game and you can select your team. When im playing with a whole clan team we communcate where we are and where they enemy is, if you die you call out where u died = simple teamwork. Its the same in every shooter ive played. If you just play with randoms it will be every man for himself. When i played COD3 with friends i still hated it. Found the vehicles in it cheap and lame, both the SP and MP didnt go for me. COD4 will stay in my 360 for months to come. Btw never had a problem with entering games or lag for that matter. The game handles lag very well and never have to lead shots like you do in gears.  

If you dont like seing urself be killed by a nub press X and skip it straight away and you respawn faster as well. Playing againts other good clans in matches is far better than paying nubs.

COD4 got 2 awards in the 2007 gaming awards. Best FPS and best Military based game. COD3 never got any and the change to IW said everything. They realised they had made a mistake and gave some1 else a chance, IW made a much better job. COD3 was a flop and was a disgrace to the series.

COD3 was rubbish compared to the others in the series i loved COD2 and im loving COD4 ive played almost every shooter on the 360 and i dont especially dislike any of them more than the other besides COD3, the MP i only liked was the FFA, which was fun till i got another game. With all the shooters out there atm i would said COD3 is by far the most rubbish. Dnt get me wrong i love WW2 shooters just hated that 1

I respect your opinion MANTRA but I think you didn't give COD3 a proper chance.  Looking at your achievements you didn't even rank as a Lieutenant or get several other achievements that even a modest amount of playing would give you.  One thing you did say that may differentiate our opinions is team play: I know maybe 4 other people with 360s so I usually am playing with random people.  If you're playing mostly with your friends I can see how you might prefer COD4.  Also, the same guys that did COD3 will make COD5, just like 2 and 4 were made by the same guys, so it's not that COD3 somehow failed and the programmers were replaced.

One thing I have noticed is that on COD4 there is little if any communication between team mates.  Maybe people just trash talking to team mates, but no one is spotting the enemy and telling the rest of the team where they are.  COD3 seemed to have that in abundance, so something about the set-up of COD4 is eliminating the "team" feeling.  Maybe it's because of the nature of WWII?  Even younger people probably know how important winning that war was to the entire world and weather youre on Allies or Axis there is a feeling of "team."  COD4 online is good but seems a little sterile. I like the weopons upgrades but when you have them all where do you go from there?  You can only combine certain upgrades to make it more of an even playing field but I can't get past the lack of in-match teamwork.  The games are too short and not to mention it is probably the laggiest game Ive ever played on 360.  Nothing like viewing the kill-cam only to spot your character getting lit-up and just standing there doing nothing while you know both of you were trading about 20 shots.  I'm not saying COD3 doesnt have lag....it's natural for the server to lag a little based on locations of connections but for overall fun I must say COD3 is a little better.

I agree, I have always blamed it on the whole ranking system. It seems people just want to go out and get kills, which in effect get's them a helicopter so they can hide and earn some xp. I reckon if there wasn't so many prestige levels and challenges so many people wouldn't play it anymore.

  I disagree. When I started playing COD 3 I noticed I got far fewer friend requests and less team play. I guess it was because of so many plaerys you would only kill the same person a few times in a game.
