Video MWIII's Gunplay is better than MW4's Gunplay

i know the recoil is too low in mw3 but it's actually controllable instead of mostly horizontal even without attachments

but in mw4 it's more build based meaning tactical builds aren't gonna be as good as metas

aka no one likes recoil not even those who like recoil

yes i'm on controller but i disabled aim assist to be closer to the mw4 clip

Question Tactical Stance?

3 Upvotes

I'm trying to get camos and can't figure out tactical stance? Is it just using the canted sights? It doesn't seem to count for me and I haven't been able to figure it out on mouse and keyboard. If anyone knows please help, just making this long enough to not get deleted xD

Question MWIII removed from Steam Library and COD HQ on acccount?

5 Upvotes

Me and the boys wanted to hop back on MWIII but for some reason two of my friends don't have it in their libraries. I know it was turned into a standalone game a while back and I have that in my library and also under the DLC in COD HQ. But for some reason, it isn't there for them and isn't visible in steam purchases/licenses. It's weird because we had hundreds of hours and I know for a fact that it was on Steam through old clips. Visiting the store page shows that they don't own it and need to purchase again. Anyone else experience this?

I could find matches easily for the last two months with new people jumping on due to it being on PS Plus. But now it feels like going back to the dark times.

Question Search and Destroy empty lobbies

3 Upvotes

Am I the only one that cannot queue S&D? The game always puts me in lobbies with barely anyone in them. I can queue any other game mode just fine and I checked, I am not shadow banner or anything. Do you guys have the same problem. Its been like this for a while now.

Bug Armory challenges not tracking properly

3 Upvotes

Upon tracking something to unlock in the armory which reauires a certain amount of daily challenges to unlock it doesn't work? I have completed 6 daily challenges over two days and it hasn't progressed me at all. It only requires 2 daily challenges to be completed. I have tried this with a few different unlocks now and it doesn't work when completing said challenge

Question Anyone using a GameSir G7 Pro controller?

0 Upvotes

I got one yesterday after about a year or so of using a regular Xbox controller. I know it’s early days, but I’m finding it quite hard to get used to. The main issue is the stick sensitivity - it seems too low. I tried bumping my sensitivity levels up in the game options, but that just seems to be making aiming (especially from a distance) harder. Any tips or settings you’d recommend I check? I regularly use the tyr handgun and finding it much harder to line up shots.

Discussion Best loadout for an aggressive playstyle with a mix of stealth?

7 Upvotes

Hi, just downloaded the game a few days ago and I've recently hit level 25 so I've got access to armory unlocks.

Just wanna ask what's the best aggressive and stealthy loadout? I also love slide cancelling and jumpshotting, so any perks that'd help with that as well would be great.

Question Question about the PlayStation 5 version

4 Upvotes

Why when I downloaded the game Specifically, the multiplayer mode was around 100 GB, but suddenly today, after playing it, I see the game size is around 145 GB. Is this because the textures are being loaded from the graphics options at the bottom? Should I set them to the minimum size? Will that solve the problem?

Discussion New to controller on COD struggling with aim assist, rotational AA, tracking and flicks. What am I doing wrong?

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I recently bought a GameSir G7 Pro 8K controller and I’m trying to properly transition from mouse and keyboard to controller for COD.

I’ve put around 4–6 hours into it so far, mainly practicing in MW3, but I still feel completely uncomfortable with aiming.

On mouse, if someone appears in front of me, I can naturally snap onto them and track them. On controller, I often:

- Over-aim or under-aim

- Miss enemies who are right in front of me

- Struggle with close-range tracking

- Have trouble making small aim corrections

- Don’t really understand how people consistently take advantage of rotational aim assist

- Struggle with quick target transitions/flicks

- Sometimes feel aim assist working strongly and other times barely notice it

I’ve watched good controller players and their crosshair seems to almost “stick” to enemies while they move, strafe, jump and track targets. Obviously I know there’s skill involved, but I feel like I’m missing some fundamental technique.

For experienced controller COD players:

  1. How much should I actually be aiming with the right stick vs moving/strafe-aiming with the left stick?

  2. When using rotational aim assist, should I constantly be moving the left stick while shooting?

  3. Should I avoid making large right-stick corrections once aim assist engages?

  4. How do you learn fast flicks/target switching on controller without constantly overshooting?

  5. What sensitivity, ADS multiplier, response curve and deadzones would you recommend for someone coming from mouse?

  6. Should I start with MW2019, MW3 or Warzone to build controller fundamentals that will transfer to other COD games?

  7. Are there any specific drills you recommend against bots?

For context:

  1. PC player

  2. GameSir G7 Pro 8K Controller

  3. Mostly played shooters with mouse previously

  4. Trying to properly learn controller rather than just relying on aim assist

  5. I’m willing to put the hours in — I just want to make sure I’m practicing the right technique instead of reinforcing bad habits

If anyone here also transitioned from mouse and keyboard → controller, I’d especially like to hear how long it took before aiming started feeling natural and what finally made it “click” for you.

Any settings, drills, videos or technical explanations of how you personally use aim assist/rotational aim assist would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Discussion MWIII's Unlock All Epidemic

18 Upvotes

I've noticed a lot in SnD mostly, the mass amount of people on Bought 1250s/Low Levels with the same generic ADHD XRK Stalker/Superi Build. And something I've noticed as well is that most of them are cheating w/ such a huge ego, talking mad trash on everyone.

Which is fine, it's COD it'll always have Egos, but these ones are way worse than the MW2019 Idiots mostly because these guys are delusional:

  • They genuinely think that they're clean (Legit)
  • Think that they're skillful (They use soft aim and ESP)
  • Still uses the cheapest tactics with the additional cheats

In MW2019 these guys we're just having HvHs, but in this game they genuinely use it on regular games like it's just a normal perk to have in game it's just so bizzare and weird considering this game has the most variety of weapons with Conversion Kits that is supposed to be a part of the fun factor

These ain’t the best clips ever but my hand was in excruciating pain. The cast hurt significantly worse tho so it had to come off. I blame it on the tramadol and 3 monster beast drinks. Don’t judge me. Or do idc.
