Some people like it like that but i prefer having to account for distance and movement.
More skillful sniping with a hint a realism is what ballastics add to the game, with out it, it would just be another COD copy.

Hell yeah, tactics and moderate skill should always beat insane reflexes and snap aiming.

THERE'S a disturbing new trend in the world of video games.

At least, there is if you take heed of the outcry online over Activision's announcement to "enhance" the biggest selling video game of all time with a new paid service.

Activision yesterday took the wraps off Call of Duty: Elite, a paid premium "social network" which will be rolled out alongside the newest instalment Modern Warfare 3 when it's released on November 8.

EA Readying a Digital Download service like steam.


Reckon this will stop EA releasing games on steam? That would be a let down! Or are they just opening up their market further?

I wont purchase the game unless its on steam, I wouldnt bother with the EA downloader shit. I'll buy a disk at worst case but I recon they'd lose money by not selling it on steam also.



BTW it would be funny if Battlefield 3 released all the same features for free that MW3 will give to paying members.

Hopefully if they are going to do it like this they build some kinda of out of game server browser like steam has. One thing Battlefield games have always failed at is there server browsers!
