Kill Streaks - Page 4

thats because you probably havent played cod much or have the memory of a goldfish.

i still have nightmares of killcams of aimbotter with the gunship.

the devs mentioned a killstreak reward, most teens are gonna think of cod.

maybe you have some weird age phobia, i want a lot of people to play this game.

when I hear call of duty the first thing that comes to my mind is not kill streak, and vice versa.

The first thing I think of when I hear Call of Duty is the pandoras box of high-pitched screaming, yelling, crying, racist, anti-everything, cussing, loudmouthing that consists of 96.9% of the entire CoD online community.

I don't want 96.9% of the CoD community in Planetside. It's not my planetside to dictate, but having players that will never be happy will always result in more people being unhappy because of that first person's unhappyness.

Yeah, Battlefield Bad Company 2 and TF2 are obscure and released before "main stream gaming".

PCs were never used to play games before the Xbox 360 and PS3 were invented. Those consoles were also not the 2nd and 3rd generations of consoles from their respective companies either. I didn't play Goldeneye and boast about going on killing streaks against friends before I could drive a car.

Dude, you're fucking stupid.

"mm-m-m-m-m-onsterkill kill kill killl"

sounds like you guys dont like cod not because of gameplay mechanics, but theres average normal people playing on them. u sound like bitter omega males.

I just realized I'm arguing with someone named moosepoop.

Why the fuck do I bother...

i dont know, but all i wanted to say was if devs mention not just killstreak, but "killstreak rewards", its gonna raise comparison to cod. no need to vent all your omega male rage on me, bro.

We don't like CoD not based on all of it's gameplay (to be fair, as far as a full encompassing video game it is fun, and interesting when all players are interested in playing the game)

We don't like CoD based on the fact that is has changed the entire genre for the worse, making our game devs that once wanted to make games fun and interesting look at dollar signs and go "I want dollars. Fuck game design." it's been coming on strong for a long time now, long past are the AAA games being developed for Niche crowds with small audiences, we now need to make dumb games for dumb people (looking at you, Zynga)

We're being elitist not because we're elitist, we're being elitist because the attitude that modern day games brings directly clash with our original ideals and how we 'grew up' in video games. We look back at Nostalgia and see video games you've never heard of before. You look back at Nostalgia and only see games that most will agree, while fun, were damaging to the games industry as a whole and only served to be cash cows in the long run.

I don't think my post made any sense.

Funny thing is I've played COD quite a bit. It's more of a real life I can shout at you face-to-face friends game than an internet game.

Compared to staring wonder-eyed at nintendo 64 under the tree when I was 12 to today I see little but a sum-total of progress. Except DLC, that shit is annoying.

moosepoop · 2011-07-10, 09:19 PM

coyote, im not disagreeing with you that going mainstream, video games have attracted a lot more average people. the jocks in school that used to mock "gamerrrs" now play games too.

im just saying, just dont include killstreak rewards, period, and it would attract less of these people. if the management forces the devs to include it, make it not game breaking, but it has to be still fun and not pointleslly redundant. aight?

As long as I can turn off the audio for the kill streaks I'll be fine. I'm one of those players who rely's on sound to the point that if my headset dies I'm about as useless as it's going to get in terms of playing agmes.

Don't want to get 5+ kills only to die to a cloaker I didn't hear pulling his pistol.

CoD didn't invent killstreaks. What the fuck kind of fairy dust are you smoking?

Do we at least get to choose the announcer? If not, then toss that shit in the trash. I don't need to know I'm owning, I can tell just by getting private msgs from the opposing team.
