MW3 copies RO2 game mechanic!

Lol, they chose the worst aspect to copy.
^this! Call of Duty series always was well know from doing such stuff
.
The difference is IW just streamlined it and turned it into another "perk", so you don't have to deal with a bunch of random percentages. I really don't like leveling weapons/roles for stat boosts, but if I had to choose, I think I would take the perk system over RO2's leveling. All of the number crunching is done and all of the benefits are clear-cut.
That being said, I would rather have a game where the stats are the same across the board, and the only differences between ranks are their loadout options...probably a combination of BF2 and BC2's rank systems.
A perfect system IMO
-no vehicle unlocks
-weapons unlocked through progression
-some attachments for weapons unlocked through progression (weapons can be customized!)
-NO proficiency modifiers

MW3 looks exactly like every call of duty game that came out. lol. wow, what a piece of garbage
I never cared for the leveling up of anything in Red Orchestra 2. (I'm an Ostfront fan btw)
Making weapons easier to use over time is is a terrible idea. What's the point of actually becoming better when your weapon will be made easier to use as you accumulate kills.

Cod4:3 copied one of the worst aspects of Ro2. Ro2 copied some of the worst aspects of cod4.
If you gain a certain amount of skillpoints you'll be able to to throw your grenades longer, aim steadier, etcetc. Why not call it perks? That what it is. It's just that it got a diffrent name but the effect it more or less the same.
IF they stole it why is that piece of utter shyte still here? call them and tell them to pick up this turd if they really want to steal it proper style.
Agreed. Doesn't the fact that people who have been playing the longest, tend to get better add up to enough of an advantage? Make it easier for them as well?
Stupid.
And COD died after COD2, for many reasons...... They just repackage the same freaking game with better graphics, year after year after year. The sheep keep buying, so I guess it works.
Actually, I think the major reason that there isn't much innovation any more is that without modtools being released any longer by the major studios, there aren't modders to provide ideas for the devs to steal.
Very true lugnut. If you've been keeping track over the last 10 years, all the large trends and new things have been started by mods. With the exception of stats tracking stuff, afaik that was a cod 4 thing.
Modern warfare type games = mods did it first. Ironsights = mods did it first, weapon float area on screen = mods did it first. The list goes on...

well at least CoD knows it's audience, and it knows what they like; it's not gonna come out one day with arma level realism and expect its fans to like it.
i think RO2 took that later approach but in reverse; dulled every thing down to the point of being trivial and then expected its core fans to enjoy it.
I wish someone would take all the best bits out of every game and make one that we all love, with a new title so there arent any comments like, "I'm a RO Vet" or "Go back to COD"
What? Stealing ideas from others in the gaming industy? get out of here!
Leveling and unlocking perks is what is killing PC gaming in general. There was a time when people would play objectives more rather than having more thought on getting kills to unlock this etc.
This then has the knock on effect of people wanting to level up instead of getting involved in scrims, leagues etc.
Just because its the norm doesnt make it right and i blame COD on the consoles. They may have got megabucks from it, but the damage they have done is unforgivable. This is not progress.
The sooner COD is not made for PC the better, and i really hope that Kotec CEO of activision really gets whats coming to him and his pets.
