Over at Cals mums house, she does a cracking bacon sarnie. Joking of course, I've never been to Ireland. 😜 I just took an unexpected break from Cod. I had grinded and camo everything in the game, I just kinda stopped playing for a bit and a few weeks turned into 3+ months. No doubt I will be back for the new one coming out. My aim will be shit and the SBMM will be ferocious. Maybe it might be the other way round. If I jump on now I will probably get a nuke. 😂

RIP Legend Sir Bobby Charlton: A Manchester United icon and one of sport's greatest figures - BBC Sport WWW.BBC.CO.UK Sir Bobby Charlton was one of England's greatest footballers and symbolised Manchester United both on and off the pitch.

Now feature complete and we're just waiting for the launch date.

Looks very promising! This probably wont get a fraction of the coverage Starfield got despite looking streets ahead in every department.

I'm probably gonna give MW3 a miss this year. I thought the beta was decent enough but not worth shelling out £60 for especially on what is a rushed continuation with content that has probably been withheld and intended for MW2 had it not fell off so spectacularly. I think Sledgehammer have made some crucial tweaks that the stubborn and quite frankly ignorant Infinity Ward should've addressed a year ago on what was extremely needless changes in the first place. This week they have been absolutely crucified on Twitter from some of the biggest names in content creation, major news outlets like CharlieIntel and Modern Warzone plus even their own affiliated partners. It is absolutely insane that it's got to this stage and emotions have really boiled over when they decided to patch the event player count based on fake feedback after ignoring the community for almost a year. It should've never come to this and MW2 really suffered for it. SHG seem to be getting off to a positive start especially after they've been under the cosh to get this done in less than 8 months but even with all the classic maps, I think they'd get a bit old after 20 ours or so, and as per usual, everyone is in the dark on season one content and its release. Such s shame Activision couldn't create a Modern Warfare Trilogy framework where the games could be merged into one massive package but then again, they do not plan ahead whatsoever for things like this - just cash in on the quick and then clamber for more content to flog. The movement and gunplay seems fluid - not quite MW2019 but way better than MW2. It's nice to see the classic maps reimagined but the ones in the beta looked a bit washed out and low in texture quality. I'd also be a bit apprehensive about the prospect of players bringing in paid bundle content against MW3's vanilla guns as I said previous and also seeing wacky camos right from the off. SBMM seemed tuned up and this is something Activision will not budge on or even talk about when confronted so it's set in stone and it looks hell this year. So I hope everyone has a good time but I'll probably have a breather and return with Black Ops 12 or whatever number we're on with that now🤣

I can't stand listening to Eight Thoughts. He's a massive Bellend. This is one of the very few open world games where I don't use fast travel. Traversing the world is so much fun with all of the web slinging and gliding that fast travel just seems pointless.

I think you can carry over paid bundle guns and skins but MW3 will have it's own selection of base weapons. I'm not sure if MW2 progressed base weapons carry but certainly paid-for content is. If base weapons are available with progression attached along with the bundles on top then that could have a dire affect on the basic MW3 weapon pool is my concern and as per usual, the developers are very vague about this.

After saying I wasn't going to pre-order I came in from the pub and was playing mw2, and thought why when I could try something new so fuck it. I have to say I'm glad I did because I've had more fun on this beta than on mw2 for a while. People know my biggest gripe for mw2 was maps, infact I think bad maps are the games biggest killer (ghosts) so no real excuses now. The gun play is solid and tbh straight away drew comparison to AW in feel. There are a few issues, mainly I have to agree visibility of players and the team they are in is an issue also, and no surprise footstep audio however the sneakers may help that but I wouldn't want it to be a crutch perk, if it is then that shows it's an issue. With the old school mini map it as suggested in the past helps with game flow and will mean suppressors will be useful. So far come November 10th mw2 can be banished for good.

While it lasts, I shall rinse it. COYS 😁🥰🥳👊🫡😍🍻

It's taking forever, and I'd say a 2025 release date maybe Xmas 2024 at the earliest. However I am pleasantly surprised by what i see. I've always had the idea it's going to be decent but once it's polished and optimised I think it may blow everyone away. That being said I'll probably need a new PC for it 😅😭

Didn't play any of the beta, haven't played Cod for months. Good chance I will end up getting it tho. Haha.

Not a game I'm interested in but just seen this😁

Someone else isn't impressed either 😂😂

One thing that actually annoys me. There's already a spoiler article on Gameinformer about the game's ending. Wtf?! The game literally just released, and you're spoiling shit already? Fuck off GI. I'm probably going to be up all night playing this. I deserve it after working all day, and podcasting for the evening.

We retired his shirt for a reason..... We could genuinely be watching the next England legend and it's all due to his youth development, you're welcome 😉

Only had a few games with FG the other night but I did feel very similar to Pat on this one. Saving grace for me was no one playing the objective so I still felt a little bit useful 🤣 It will still be a good game I reckon. Many here will enjoy it I think as movement was quicker (I think prefer it a little slower like MW2) but providing TTK isn't ridiculously quick then I can enjoy it. My opinion isn't worth much though because I don't know the old maps like pretty much all of you as I never played old MW2 as much as you guys and girls did all those years ago. Excited to play on the maps as they'll be new to me.

I am led to believe after watching Nero all mw2 weapons will carry over into mw3 and all the attachments you've unlocked plus skins etc. Wether you use them is upto you. @Plumbers Crack

What I meant was is the carrying over of weapons, skins, etc from MW2 just an option when you start the game? I want to start again with just MW3 guns etc. I don't want to carry rank or use anything from MW2

As far as I'm aware you can't start over with MW2 weapons. They're kept separate from MW3 weapons as MW3 weapons have different attachments.

Weapons from MW2 carry over so just use whichever OP gun is from that game.

Some nice one and two touch football here…

Shit low tick servers are to blame for that. I tried to get into this and just didn't enjoy it. TTK is massively inconsistent, loads of sweats playing. I might pick up the actual game when it's released but I'll be sticking to HC.

Episode 67 is LIVE!! Resignations, slim consoles and mergers, OH MY!!

So just like in mw2 the EOD and tac mask seem absolutely pointless I stilled get flashed and blown the fuck up. However the covert sneakers for me are a must, I hate the heavy footsteps 🤣

I swear it’s some sort of sick joke on the part of SHG saying the TTK is increased because getting killed just as quick as I did in MW2 and it’s taking me like half a clip to kill somone. mirrors my exact same experience of the MW2 beta too! It’s fucking weird

This is actually a very well produced and interesting podcast, recommend FGers to check it out 👊🙂

I played and got myself to level 20. I am not sure to be honest The movement is too much like a jack rabbit that is high on crack. Running like crazy everywhere and just too quick The TTK was pretty bad for me. I would unload an entire clip into 2 opponent and then die reloading because I needed so much ammo to kill anything The kill streaks were rather Meh. I ended up playing with SAM, Counter, VTOL or whatever it was. The guns were nothing spectacular. The LMG was just garbage I did like the maps and if they were just to offer this as a map pack for MWII + Zombies I would be quite happy I didn't get a chance to use the sniper riffle much. With the super fast movement is rather difficult to get a good shot unless they are coming right at you The perk system was interesting. Not sure about it yet but I have not complaints. However I didn't get to play it much since one of the vest unlocks at level 19 I believe and the last one does not I did play on PSN and unlike other games the connection was pretty good. I will give the XBOX a chance this next Beta and see if it plays better, same or worse before choosing a platform Skidrow, Favela and rust were fun. Estate just seem to big for guns we had. I could hit the target just fine but I couldn't down anything. Won't be a problem once we have all the guns I assume

Top of the Men's, Under 21s and Under 18s 🤘

Who else thought that the Stryker SMG is soooo good? Also the MCW (ACR) is so good too. Anyone else like the certain guns from the beta?

Top of the world until after the internationals period, I'll certainly take that for Tottenham. Not very clever, or indeed sporting, from Bissouma so I hope he has a word with himself. Defence is looking good finally, and only injuries will hamper us this season. Strong teams in the prem will make this a very exciting and tough season, it already is 🙂

Had my first proper go, Hardpoint on Favela. And of course i was the only person in my team playing the objective lol Felt great to be quite honest, I love all the new places you can climb on that map and I'm now worried I might actually buy it. Also, I agree on friendlies and enemies, so I'll be steering clear of hardcore game modes just in case I team kill and get booted.

One issue I have found is recognizing enemies and friendly. It's very faint to tell when you are in the heat of battle. I have found shooting friendly quite often. Hopefully that will be more recognizable later on.

Weird matchmaking, joined a lobby where it put all rank 1 players in one team with the other team mostly rank 15+ Not actually played a full game yet as I just wanted to get a quick flavour of it while waiting for food to cook. No pun intended. Will give it a proper go later.

I'm liking the movement. Like the handling. Just trying to figure out the attachments and "perks" based off of gloves, boots and other equipment. Only about four games in and still getting a feel for it.

Sadly only managed about an hour on the beta so will have to give it a better go in the upcoming beta dates. Though I didn’t see anything to make me not want to get it. It’s certainly good to have the old maps back. A couple of things though, I can see the breacher drone getting nerfed as it’s quite OP at times. It also seems there’s some description missing on some things as it took a few minutes to figure out why I didn’t have a lethal grenade until I figure out the vest changes it. I assume one of the other vest gives overkill too but hard to know as they don’t say it.

Minus the corner glitch which I never knew about

Great goal

Brighton for the top 4 anyone? I think we're moving to a new era where its not about the 'Big 6' anymore, which I think is great news overall.

Utd have lots of internal turmoil, it will be a test for them to see how they deal with things. Not very well so far. Spuds v Woolwich next weekend at the emptycrates and that will be fun I'm sure 😁

Thought Brighton played amazing again on the weekend. United look to be really struggling now.

Richy was well deserving of the Fans MotM. Spurs were unlucky not to get a penalty or two as well, played really well. Had Chelsea down to draw on the Predictions - not surprised they're still struggling. Sterling was unlucky not to score the free kick though.

Chelsea, the gift that keeps on giving. I'm sure if they stick with Poch they'll be fine but it's the same story as last season for them and I'm loving it 🤗

No more UK transfer window, there's still the possibility of players leaving clubs but no more buys now until January, and no excuses. I think it's going to be a very interesting season.

Bellingham is going from strength to strength in Madrid, its cool to see.

I'm pretty sure Maguire would prosper at another club, don't understand why he stays somewhere he's not respected. As for Henderson, he plays on a sand dune now, I'd say in a country run wrong uns but that's a bit pot and kettle 😅
