I got to play it briefly and I'm not really sure about this. On the one hand it feels more fluid like MW 2019 and it's nice to be revisiting old maps. On the other, it's just MW2 2022 with a couple of key tweaks and a recycled DLC pack of maps for £60. The interface and everything else is largely the same. It actually doesn't feel all that refined either and the maps look visually washed out. I can't blame the developers though as this is a cross between a rushed product dressed up desperately as a full game and a jumbled mess of withheld content that's probably existed for two years and would've been in MW2 if it had more staying power.  A lot will depend on the campaign for me but I fear this will get stale after a few weeks and Activision still can't outlay a proper content map after all these years. 
 
They could've and should've integrated all the Modern Warfare to form a trilogy and this should've been the plan from day one but each game is just a mess of inconsistent changes and design. This could've been done so much better but it's just a fragmented mess of games and content with so many needless design changes.  I do think it will do well but I'm not sure if it'll have the staying power once the novelty wears off. 

Hmmmm. Looks interesting.

Sorry that keeps happening to you, I'll fix them any time I see them 🙂
Nice goal by the way 👏 

Been playing some Rocket League with others. But I was able to capture this.

So I just put some brief thoughts in the whatsapp but generally it is just amalgamation of just previous games, ui from the last game, perks from the one before and maps from 10 years ago (albeit snazzied up a bit). I think it sums up though the problem with these titles in that they have gotten comfortable with call of duty, it's a bit like fifa, no need to try something new or innovate really, people will continue to buy the game why create anything new. Let's just take things from previous games and release it as a full title, I find that really shitty to be honest.
 
That aside, yeah it's fine and plays like a typical COD.
 
I think the only reason I am contemplating picking it up is because I have a group of friends that play zombies and they are contemplating getting this one and I would quite like to play more games with them again (I used to play a lot of battlefield with them). If it was just for the multiplayer element I am not really sure I would bother with it and find it a little absurd that it will probably sell quite well for that alone.

I managed one game before the beta ended.
 
Being able to run around with quiet footsteps instantly made the game more fun than MW2. I can now flank successfully and got quite a few kills from behind which simply isn't possible in MW2.
I thought I'd hate the TTK but it didn't bother me. Then again I was using the UMP45 on Favela so I don't know what will happen on a map with longer sight lines.
There were a couple of coked up, bunny hopping sweats on the other team. Why play like that in a Beta? I just laughed.

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.

Counter Strike 2







 

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?

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.

@Greboth and @GazzaGarrattthanks for taking the time to make these for us, can't wait to start making our liveries now for the Summer League. They're going to look ace! 

Mate, those extra logos are incredible!!!
 
Thanks bud!
 
P.S. I need PNG ones too so we can use them everywhere else too!
 
Current Car Manufacturer teams ( @Lurch  @jordie1892  @crispymorgan  @Mikepjbell  @slamminbones  @phil bottle @Macca89  @JBR-Kiwi  @Greboth ) Make sure you get some of the new logos on your car for sure!
 
Individual FG Special Drivers! ( @Diddums @Kurt @LordBaguette @Misneach_ @tronic44 @Spacedeck @Stretch616 @TonyAE86 @Findmartin @TurboR56Mini ) Grab some of these and upload them through the GT website. Takes literally a few minutes and you can then add some extra awesomeness to some of your own personal liveries.
 
Get them done and shared up so we can see how many we can make 😎

With the upcoming summer league, I've added a few more logos to this.  Check the OP for details.

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.
 
 

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.

There is the equipment that makes footsteps louder so I suspect that the quiet sneakers will end up being a crutch perk. Why they've put something in that makes footsteps louder is a mystery to me. They know that people hate the loud footsteps in MW2.

I think they had to put that in to counter the covert sneakers, however with how the gear works people may not run that as much as something maybe more beneficial. 

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.

Proper gameplay footage. I tend to trust Ace's opinion as he isn't scared to criticise a game if it's got issues.

I'm not sure yet. It feels like CoD has been on a wash rinse repeat. Do I enjoy unlocking and achieving challenges sure. In my opinion have one good CoD and create expansions off of that. Until there's a need for a new game. But this feels like the same game again. I would be curious on what this beta is going to showcase. But we all know the Beta is a Beta and things will change afterwards.

Just interested in the general feeling in FG for MW3 so poll time 🙂

I'll be getting it just for playing Fridays if nothing else which is what I said before putting 14 days into mw2(22) but at least I can't moan about the maps 😉. 
However I won't pick it up until after launch.

That’s good to hear, all the old maps, proper perks sounds like a big win to me. I think I’ll be in
