IS COD 4 THE BEST ONLINE MULTIPLAYER ON 360?

[Bud Select AK]

COD4 is sooo much better than Halo. While Halo is enjoyable in Campaign and custom games with friend random multiplayer is Horrible. While COD4 does have some BS moments, a whole lot more ever since the update. COD4 is so much more enjoyable to play, anyone can pick it up and have fun. You don't have to be some Uuber gamer that practiced with a BR and put a dot on their tv to get head shots. The finer points do require skill in COD4 not everyone can just be great it takes practice but the learning curve is much less.

Prestige is Garbage. What a pointless attempt at replayability. I mean if you unlock additional perks or something extra at level 10 maybe but nothing but start over. How Lame, oooh I got a little symbol, please.

It's much easier to take care of campers of COD4 than Halo, well excluding Hardcore. Maybe its just me but I can play COD nonstop without getting tired of it, but Halo3 gets old after just a couple matches.

Prestige IS garbage, I totally agree. COD4 does have the pickup and play, whereas Halo 3 can only really be truly played by those who played every one before it. Camping, even in Hardcore, is alot easier to take care of on almost any map. In my opinion at least, COD4 is better because it fixes the problems Halo has in multiplayer, at least the ones that make it a bit sub-par in comparison to Halo. The interface is a bit less attractive, you can't do replays or make your own game types, but those are extras and if COD4 had those, it would just be Halo who?

Maybe I am just Halo'd out. I just freakin love the multiplayer for Call of Duty 4. The game looks amazing and the match making is great too. I cant get enough of this game right now! The best thing about the game is the gamers on it. Everyone is really cool and fun to play with. I have not run into anyone who has ruined a game by being an ***. We need more games like COD 4! Part of me is sad to see Halo 3 get over shadowed but it was time for a game like this to come out! What do you think?


This is what I put up on xbox.com. Go and see what others had to say and give your opinion.

IDK I have not play RBSV2 yet.

 

[KoG Tigger]

You're saying you need to in order to know if its going to be one of the best games this year, maybe this decade?

 

[KoG Manbearpig]

Best game ever

 

[XGC Sabotage]

Na dude for me it wasnt all that great I kinda got sick of being berayed in hardcore, like I had a 6 kill streak then 1 kill till I get my heli one of my team mates throws a flash bang in my face, then they knife me, I just think that you could boot ppl for stuff like that but thats the one thing i just hate that.

It seems like everyone here is just giving you their opinions. I am gonna give you the facts.

1. CoD4 has more weapons than Halo 3.
2. CoD4 is the most played game on XBox Live.
3. CoD4 is one of the most photo realistic games ever made.
4. Halo 3 let down a lot of people's expectations and in my opinion it was overhyped.
5. About half of the clans on XG are CoD4 and the other half are Halo 3.
6. CoD4 has more weapons than Halo 3.
7. CoD4 has less downloadable maps than Halo 3.

Those are the facts and in my opinion CoD4 is much better than Halo 3, but I am sure millions of people would beg to differ. I suggest trying both games and seeing which you like more.

i and 6 are the same. Good Job Slick.

CoD4 is way to darn laggy for me. i hate Cod4.

 

[ELLIS]

You typed i and 6 are the same i think you meant 1 and 6 are the same, so i guess we should say way to go slick yourself. The next time you try to be a show off better check your own stuff huh??

 

[nsoSUPERSOILDER]

#2 CoD 4 registers every game played including guests, Halo 3 does not count guests

#3 I don't think Bungie was going for the realistic look when they made plasma weapons and aliens

#4 it was a letdown somewhat, no game can top what Halo 2 brought to XBL

#5 I think if you went through and counted all the clans in H3 you'd erase this from the list

COD 4 has gotten boring to me for a long while. I mean, I still play it every now and then, but not every day. I moved on to play other games *like rpg's and older 360 games* I don't like to to just play one game for a looooong time. I did that to Halo 3 and it made me hate Halo 3 so much that I got rid of the game.

But I pretty much have gotten back to playing COD 4 like every other day and I still enjoy it on occasion. Only things that I hate is that I hate joining laaaaate games because im always put on the losing team *the losing team is like losing by like a lot* And I hate when the host just ends the game and if your losing, it's considered a loss. Plus I reaaaaaaaly hate the random cooked grenade throws that are just thrown in the air randomly and I always seem to run into them, haha it's very frustrating.

Yea, it is on the top on XBL, but I bet you all that once Gears of War 2 comes out, it will be the top game on XBL. I mean Gears of War beat Halo 2 to become the top game on XBL. Im not sure if it will happen, but I have a really good feeling that Gears 2 will beat COD 4 and Halo 3.

We will find out this Novemeber.

Before you get full of yourself, let's put the thought into roman numerals. Roman numeral for "1" is "I" so... yeah....

Anyways, as I'm sure everyone else has, I've played both games. And I still do play both games. Both of them are pretty damn good, but I'm going to have to say Halo 3 is a lot more entertaining with all the bonus features that they have, as well as the fact that it was not made to be realistic, as it was pointed out by Jangles. Call of Duty gets annoying when you're running around then a random grenade hits you... this is less likely to happen on Halo 3, because even if it does happen, you are only down on shields. That means that if they don't know you're already there, you just have to sit there until your shields recharge. Let's see, Call of Duty also has things like JUGGERNAUT. And MARTYDOM. Those have to be the two most annoying things ever! You just killed someone, and before you can get a chance to move away from him since, let's say you knifed him, the grenade drops at your feet. You try to throw it away, but can't get it away. That's bull. Juggernaut is just for the nub. And then you have people that run around using the M16 all the time, they never use any other guns! They just want the M16! I have the M16 with stopping power just for when I am facing people that won't stop using the M16. Fight fire with fire. Since Call of Duty is practically a one-hit kill, depends on your accuracy, it gets really annoying because someone could just have a shot at you while you're fighting with someone else... on Halo, you have more of a chance to fight back, and if you're good, win. Or at least have it so that you kill each other.

So, my opinion. Halo is better than Call of Duty 4. But if you want a game better than both, then you need not look further than Rainbow Six: Vegas 2! I got that game and was just blown away by it, it was just that amazing. Gears of War 2 will hold nothing on it, as far as I'm concerned. Because I wasn't a big fan of Gears of War to begin with. You want tactical shooters? There you go.

I have to add my two cents to this convo.
1. In Reference to those random grenades... their not always random, imagine this scenario. 28/30 times people run the same routes with the same intentions in mind. Don't consider any of my nades random, they are simply educated.

2. Halo and Call of Duty are two different styles of gaming. You can put Halo in the same category as Unreal, Doom, Gears... and Shooters of the Fantastical nature... where you have Call of Duty in the category such as Rainbow Six, Counter Strike, MoH, & Ghost Recon. Hands down each appeals to different people for many reasons.

Thats all I have to say on the topic...

I wish they would make a Counter-Strike game for the 360. But they are only making that Left 4 Dead game that's made by Valve with the Counter-Strike Source graphics, man it's gonna rock.

 

[dominckblue]

they should make a counter strike for 360 that would be badass

 

[SYNxTourettes]

i still think its the best. like in halo3, you know u can get a 4 shot with a br and 2 shots with snipe, but in cod, it depends where i nthe body yo uare shot. its so much more realistic than anything ive ever played. so yeah, it is the best game on 360

1. Sadly, no most people don't hit 4 shots with the BR like they say they do. I've gotten to a 50 in MLG and to 49 in MLG on two other accounts and guess what, its still hard to 4 shot people on default settings which is what most people play on. MLG settings make it easier because of 110% damage you can afford to miss 1 bullet out of the 12. Even against level 50's in TS, most of them take 6 or 7 shots from moderatley close range. Then, people have to hit the last shot in the head otherwise its going to take them an extra four body shots to kill someone.

2. Most people take 3 shots to kill with the sniper if they don't hit a headshot immediately. Its just the truth. I've played 5000 H3 games and most players either kill you in 1 shot or 3-4 unless you are playing 48+.

People always say "Well in Halo you can kill people in this many shots no matter what" depending on what weapon they are talking about. 90% of the time though those people are the ones who are missing shots and getting kills with 7-8 shots with the BR and that kind of stuff.

In my opinion, and I know I'm gonna get a lot of people disagreeing with me on this, CoD4 takes less skill. I sign on usually once every week, maybe once every two weeks and play for a few hours. Domination, Headquartes, Deathmatch, I play all those. I even use to play a lot of S&D when I played more often.

But I can go into a Dom or HQ match and go 80 and 20 after not playing for two weeks. It really doesn't matter what weapon I use, and I don't camp either. I run around and get a massive amount of kills because I know that people camp and I know where they are going to camp because thats what people do, EVERY GAME.

Now when I come back from not playing Halo for 3 - 4 days I plain get destroyed by the people I usually play with for the first 2 or 3 hours before I am playing semi decent again. CoD4 doesn't have that. Its easy to aim, it takes very few bullets to get kills, and the strategy for 60% of the people who play that game is wait for someone to walk in front of me while I hid in this corner.

When i played halo I was only a 36 because i won 32 games in a row and did not go up a single level but when i finally lost a game I went down 3 levels and thats when i stopped playing it and went to call of duty. And I could kill in just four shots with the Br and I could kill with one shot to the head with a sniper on a regular basis. If any of you want to see a video wear I shot a guy in the head 6 times before he died send me a message and I'll let you look at it. You can go to his head and see the vapor trail going through his eyes. In Call of Duty we don't have this.

Here are my reasons for not playing Halo any more:

1. Melee system was purposefully made the way it was to level the playing field for newbs.
2. Level system was completely screwed up a newb can get to 50 in Rumble Pit.
3. Head shots didn't always count.
4. I once played 32 games I an row and did't go up a single level. Then I lost one and went down 3.
5. The people who play it are full of themselves.
6. Its no longer a tactical shooter like halo but a run an gun.
7. Halo 2 was just better than it. Isn't it supposed to be the other way around.
8. The level system is bassed on true skill?

Reasons for playing Call of Duty 4:
1. No glitches in the level system.
2. Has a much more mature playing crowd.
3. Headshots actually count.
4. If you play 32 games in a row your gurranteed a level.
5. You dont lose multiple levels for one game.
6. It can actually destingusih a foot shot from a chest shot.

Come on people just because Bungie made two great games doesn't mean the third game is automatically good. I would rather go back to halo 2 than play halo 3 any day just because anybody can pick it up and play it, and Bungies even said anybody can pick it up and play it at the launch. The funny thing was is that I bought the limited edition and the only thing of value to me that came with it was the calibration disc for your T.V..I stopped playing halo the month it came out and went back to playing Halo 2.
