Yeah. The blops stock server control program is the worst one I've ever had to deal with. No high ping kick. Cant read the ingame chat. It borders on worthless. Adding insult to injury gameservers.com exclusive.

MW3 fanboys beware... Bf3 ftw!

oh lets not get me started on bf3.....

That facebook account is linked from the official callofduty.com website. Seems to be legit. Guess Activision has seen the light. Hope they keep their word.

Now if they can do what tripwire did and add PB + VAC then we may have something.

Will MW3 have server files available to the public for download so we can play LANs?

Well if they have internet yes. Not sure if they will have a true LAN option that doesn't require the internet.

After all the RSP crap from EA and Black Ops, I'm just happy to see a major game returning to it's roots for this.

Looks like you were right, MaydaX.

Public server files will be available for everyone from what I am reading from this twitter post:

I've been adamant that I will not be buying MW3, but this may just be a turning point.
+1 for needed PB support.

CoD4 is one of the best games we support (PB wise). Full PB integration, demos and access to server files. I hope they add PB again honestly because I'm sick of the new games with no server files of any kind with bullsh*t reasons and games that don't even integrate PB correctly at all. /end rant :P

Public server files alone won't make MW3 PC a hit but it's one step in making other devs realize they are running out of excuses with one of the biggest games reversing it's server policy from only one provider to letting anyone host.

Treyarch, for its part, supported dedicated PC servers in Call of Duty: Black Ops, but tried to reach a middle ground by going with an official server provider. The servers are customizable and reliable, but you don’t get complete freedom, and if you want to run one, you have to pay a fee. There were complaints.

Now, after listening to players, IW and Sledgehammer will try the first method again. Modern Warfare 3 will feature free, run-it-yourself COD4-style dedicated server support because the hardcore fans have been very clear (if not terribly polite) in their feedback. As the saying goes, give the people what they want. I’m happy to see it.

Now there is newer information from another site. The Deathstreaks and Pointstreaks have been added:

http://www.mw3info.com/mw3-leaked-perks-and-killstreaks/

Quote

MW3 Killstreaks

There are 3 Seperate killstreak tiers, you have to choose which tier you want to choose you're 3 killstreaks from, but if you choose the last tier, you just get exactly what it says.

Assault Tier Killstreaks:

4 Kills – Care Package
5 Kills – IMS – 3 or 4 placeable landmines that cannot be stunned or flashed
5 Kills – Predator Missile
5 Kills – Sentry Gun
6 Kills – Precision Airstrike
7 Kills – Attack Helicopter
7 Kills – Little Bird Flock – Mini Helicopters which patrol the map
9 Kills – Little Bird Guard – Big Helicopter that follows you from above and protects you
9 Kills – Mortar team – Mortar team but with 5 predator missiles – all go off at the same time in different places
10 Kills – Talcon – Mini Tank Robot
12 Kills – AC130 (We cheer!)
12 Kills – Pavelow
15 Kills – Juggernaught Suit – From spec Ops ( For anyone who says in the spec ops video he gets it at 14 kills, well thats because he has hardline on)
15 Kills – Osprey Gunner Cps – You control a chopper gunner that also drops an emergency airdrop for your team mates.

Support Tier Killstreaks:

4 Kills – UAV
5 Kills – Counter UAV
5 Kills – Ballistic Duffel – Drop Juggernaught perk for the whole team, not jugg suit
5 Kills – Airdrop Trap – Drops a hacked care package
8 Kills – Sam Turret
10 Kills – Remote [Missile] UAV – Target enemies with missiles
12 Kills – Advanced UAV – Blackbird
12 Kills – Remote Turret – Sentry Gun that you can control
12 Kills – Stealth Bomber
18 Kills – EMP
18 Kills – Juggernaught Recon Armour – Care Package Drop Armour
18 Kills – Escort Airdrop – Same as the Osprey Gunner but you dont control the gunner or chopper and Drops 5 care packages, one will be hacked

Specialist Tier Killstreaks (you have the opportunity to choose the perk each time):

2 Kills – You get 1 extra perk
4 Kills – Get another perk
6 Kills – Get another perk

Another thing is that the killstreaks will cycle through in the same life, so you dont have to die to reset your killstreaks and get your first killstreak again.

MW3 DeathStreaks

Juiced [Lightweight] – 4 Deaths
Martyrdom – 4 Deaths
Final Stand – 4 Deaths
Revenge (Last person that killed you is always visible on your mini map) – 5 Deaths
Stopping power for one kill – 5 Deaths
Dead Mans Hand (You run around with c4 in your hand (suicide bomber)) – 6 Deaths

MW3 Perks
'+' = With pro added

Tier 1

Extreme Conditioning – Sprint longer distances + Climb obstacles faster
Sleight Of Hand – Reload faster + Faster weapon swapping
Scavanger – Reload ammo from bags + Spawn with more ammo
Blind Eye – Undetectable from air support + Faster launcher lock on and extra damage to air support
Recon – Explosive damage marks target on HUD + Bullet damage marks target on HUD

Tier 2

Hardline – One less kill for Killstreak + Two assists count as a kill towards next killstreak (Like)
Assassin – Immune to UAV, Motion Sensor, Thermal and Heartbeat Sensor + Immune to CUAV & EMP
Overkill – Two primary weapons + Second primary can have 2 attachments
Quickdraw – Faster aim down sights + Faster animation of using equipment and throwing grenade
Blastshield – Flack Jacket (Immune to most explosives) + Immune to stuns and flashes

Tier 3

Sitrep – Enemy equipment is visible + Enemy footsteps are more clear
Dead Silence – Your footsteps are silent + No fall damage
Stalker – Faster movement with ADS + Delay on claymores
Marksman – ID target from range + Longer hold breath on scoped weapons
Steady Aim – Increased hip fire accuracy + Faster aim down sight while sprinting

MW3 Pointstreaks

Rather than standard killstreaks for objective based games, pointstreaks will be rewarded to players who play the objective (i.e. capturing flags, defusing bombs etc.) and get kills to encourage players to play the objective rather than just get kills in objective based game types. The streaks will be awarded based on points that the payer has received.

MW3 developers are bashing EA's Origin:

But, don't forget about the retail copy of BF2142. That contained adware also:

http://kotaku.com/207955/battlefield-2142-with-a-dash-of-spyware

Quote

So. In the latest CGW podcast, they received retail boxed copies of BF 2142. When you open the box, a big slip of paper falls out first, preceeding any discs or manuals. The slip of paper says, essentially, that 2142 includes monitoring software which runs while your computer is online, and records "anonymous" information like your IP address, surfing habits (probably via cookie scans), and other "computing habits" in order to report this information back to ad companies and ad servers, which generates in-game ads.

This just came in from Valve: “The PC version of the product will be powered with Steamworks for both the digital and tangible versions of the game and, as with all Steamworks titles, offline play will also be supported along with Auto-Updating, Achievements, and more. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will also support dedicated servers on day 1.”

The video showed a list of 13 multiplayer maps for the game. The names of the maps are Carbon, Coast, Dome, Exchange, Hardhat, Interchange, Lambeth, Meteora, Mogadishu, Paris, Plaza, Radar and Seatown. It's possible a few more maps could appear in the retail release. Call of Duty: Black Ops, the last game in the series had 14 maps while Modern Warfare 2 had 16.

The leaked video also showed two game types for Modern Warfare 3. While in the Team Deathmatch mode, it shows has been in every other Call of Duty game, the new Bomb mode is completely new to the series. The video showed nothing about the mode besides its name, so we'll have to wait until the Call of Duty XP event to learn what players actually do in the game type.

One of the most interesting things in the video is the information that some matches will allow up to 32 players. In previous games, the most was 18 players.

http://sfx-360.com/newsite/modern-warfare-3-multiplayer-modes-leaked-before-cod-xp/

32 players on xbox so that's a good sign for PC. God I hated the 18 player limit in the last two cod games.
