So first of all, I quit the other game yesterday... and an info came up (you know the commercials about pricecuts, in that window)

And the first one was saying... "MW3 Free Weekend beginning 29th of sept."

And I had a button I could click to start the PRE-DOWNLOAD... or smth like that.
It didn't work...

I did closed that window... then It disappeared... POOF! now... can't find a link to it nowhere on STEAM.


Well, I don't play that game series.... but it would be nice to try it out...
Anyone seen it too?

In before "OMG game sucks so much, will never download....*downloads game, enjoys even if a little*...WORST sht ever I told you I will never download it, devs can just go die".

It always happens, on this forum and everywhere else, every single time, it did last time (had a good laugh at those that admitted they did after posting such nonsense) and it will happen in the future.


That being said, the game does suck and it sucks almost as much as MW 2, it MW 2 and W@W are by far the worst CoDs ever created (in that order).

That^ and they've done a free weekend on this game too much... Nobody will give a damn about it. They've given PC gamers the shaft too many times since MW2. CoD is dead on PC.

Put out a free weekend to drum up interest in the series again before the new one comes out a month or so down the line

MW3 is actually holding the player numbers pretty steadily. Hasn't dropped much since July. I expect it would probably drop by half or more when BO2 releases.

"Big Picture" what a pointless thing that was you've been able to use your television as a monitor for years. True people will come off MW3 for BO2 but that's how it always is whenever a new one comes out.

If you copy and paste this:

steam://install/42690

in your browser you can start a preload for multiplayer, but I have no idea if it would actually work.

Interesting. I thought the single player was really good. I'll pass on the multiplayer.

Do these free weekends include the entire game, or just the multiplayer? It would be nice to be able to play the single player campaign for free, since that is usually the only portion of COD games I enjoy, and they are always way too short to justify a purchase.

I'm going on a trip this weekend, but I'm taking advantage of the influx of n00bs to rank up my prestige today. Might get a few MOABs in as well XD

Problem with the CoD Series is the anti cheat system, which is non-existent. U can have fun playing any CoD, but as soon as u start playing and notice 4 players are cheating (and obvious cheating, as in shoot across the map) the fun goes out the window.

And so the impression after playing an hour.

As soon as I got to the ... yes, VERY FIRST match. A team of hackers were shooting thru walls, teleporting running with speed of light I dunno what was goin on...

tried the last free weekend. I vomited after half a round

wis3boi



And yes... I did vomit after the half round when I saw that...


I mean... DEAR GOD. XD
It really hasn't got any ANTI cheat system...
I'll pass...

It's much better on xbox, though I'm gonna sell it... New games await. :)

I didn't see any cheaters, but the visuals, the sounds, the maps smaller than my bedroom, and the same gameplay I saw in 2007 was pretty puke-inducing.

BF3's SP/COOP add no value to the game for most PC gamers whereas on MWF3 the SP/COOP is enjoyable but there isn't that much content, in fact made by separate teams from the MP hence not an awful experience like the MP(at least for some people - especially those that don't take it too seriously). Plus you can always try beating this guy's times: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot09yJL2oGI&hd=1

Suprisingly that guy doesn't hack, at least not in those videos, he's just really good.

But yeah everyone knows to stay away from CoD on the free weekends as it attracts every hacker and his mom to the game.

It really doesn't matter if you like the game or not, when there is a hacker in almost every match it makes it unfun.

yeah well when windows 8 was given "Final, RTM" I thought it would be stable, especially since it's just 7... or so I thought.

I downloaded it and gave it a go. It was...well...I didnt like it. Ill leave it at that. I just wish it wasnt so floaty and papery...it was just like MW2...exactly actually. I loved MW2 for the 120 hrs I played it but I dont want the same exact thing and definitely dont want the same paper visuals.
