MW3 Didn't Copy BF3, What Brings Fans Back to CoD, and more

4.1
For those of you who think that only Infinity Ward and Treyarch work on the Call of Duty franchise, you should know that Sledgehammer Games are developing Modern Warfare 3 side by side with Infinity Ward. Today, we have found some interesting things that Glen Scholfield and Michael Condrey, the co-founders of Sledgehammer Games, said about Modern Warfare 3.

When a fan claimed that Modern Warfare 3 is copying Battlefield 3, Scholfield answered “We (the people behind MW3) haven’t copied BF3 at all. No need to and never seen much of it. We’re making the sequal to MW2, that’s what we look at.” Of course, MP1st’s loyal readers might recall that Infinity Ward’s Robert Bowling has only played about an hour of Battlefield 3 and loved it.

On another note, in a recent interview with NowGamer, when ask about the competition with the Battlefield 3, Condrey explained that he shares Eric Hirshberg’s thoughts, which you can find here. He went on to shed some light on what brings gamers back to Call of Duty by stating“It (Call of Duty) is fun, it’s fast, it’s 60 frames per second.” He explained “what 60 fps mean is it feels smooth, you’re in the action right away.” He ended his point with “I think that’s what’s been bringing fans back time and time again to Call of Duty.”

When asked, on twitter, on whether the premium Elite service has anything to do with Dedicated servers on PC. Condrey reassured that “(dedicated servers are) free to all PC. Independent of Elite.”

You should go to school and learn to type properly


Someone should learn the difference between troll and not troll.
Your a cod fanboy trolling BF3 when they're two different games made by 2 different developers.(Dice is the better developer though)

krwskater25 Oooo.... 60 FPS.... That don't mean crap if you have a junk host
theres a big diff betweeen 60 fps and 30 fps just saying not ttrying to start a big flame war
Ok tell me what the diff is.


30 frames per second is the difference you ****, seriously how old are you 10?


YOU'RE clearly the one who is "10" here. Now read this very carefully because you're about to be proven 100% wrong and everyone here who says "DURR MW3 GONNA BE BETTER CUZ WE HAVE 30 MORE FPS~~" will also be in the same boat as you.

To give an idea of what 30 FPS as opposed to 60 FPS means, consider this: Movies you see at the theater are 24 FPS, which is the most common industry standard for film. Humans generally cannot easily detecte differences in excess of 30 FPS. 30 FPS will do just fine for Battlefield 3, as it would for MW3 if it was also running at 30 FPS.

WANT MORE? What it comes down to, and this is what many console players (Including you, derp) and even members of the press (The absolute GENIUSES at IW) fail to understand, is that the decision to make the game run at 30 FPS and 720p is because to do otherwise would come at extreme expense to the quality of the graphics and even gameplay. Console hardware, both PS3 and 360 alike, is very outdated by now. Battlefield 3 is a truly next-generation first-person shooter, and its unparalleled graphical and technological capabilities require PC hardware to be fully realized, which is half a decade more advanced and powerful than console hardware. Even at 30 FPS and 720p, BF3 pushes console graphics and technology to the absolute visual limit of the console hardwares ability WITHOUT risking damage to the gameplay. It is impressive that the only gameplay compromise that DICE was forced to make for the console versions of BF3 is dropping the player limit from 64 to 24 players.

MW3, on the other hand, is running the same engine they've been running since CoD4 (Just revamped) trolololololol

so how cool to you feel at the fact that youve spent the last few months looking up ways to show that bf3 is gonna be better then mw3? congrats you know how to use google. and saying things like derp and trolololol are a lil old dont you think kid? grow up. there games. and who cares about the pc, only reason people use them is to hack. so now before you go calling anyone a troll look at what you posted... good job, again i give you congrats that you know how to use google... now honestly, for your sake and everyone elses... stfu


No. Lol


Omg.. who cares.. the FPS simply is visual quality! Yes, MW3 will have the engine from CoD4 just revamped; it's funny; that's all COD needs! Battleifield3 is trying sooo hard to get more consumers.. and they might. But after that? People will notice how whack BF3 is and play Mw3 or Gears 3! But everything is opinion. BF3 is the worst War simulating game...


Battlefield is not trying to be a war simulator dumb ****, If you want a war simulator go play ARMA Oh no you won't know what that is only the PC Can handle it's technology. Second thing i want to say is Cod has been using the same engine for 10 years it is the Quake 3 engine FFS. Third thing i want to say is Battlefield 2 on the PC Not bad company 2 also Battlefield 2 was released 6 years ago and here is a screenshot of how full the servers still are... http://speedcap.net/img/20d0cef9f67160745d49a929d43c646d/6c8df.png
last thing i want to say is how retarded you ALL Are seriously if you go on a game of Far cry 2 for an example if my frame rate drops to 30Fps i can notice a difference that difference being that it is not Smooth/Fluent as it would be as 60Fps but you people moan about **** frame rate because you will be getting it on console.
kthxbai.

PS: You people get on my titties

-Spirt- OMG this is what I hate because no one understands this... Yes MW3 will have 60FPS and BF3 will only have 30FPS but you have to remember that MW3 does not stay at a constant 60FPS the frame rate will drop just like in every other call of duty and it will go down to around the 20FPS but BF3 will have a constant 30FPS no matter what is going on. I am not saying one is better than the other i am just stating the facts.

You are a dumass if you have had infections on MW2 or COD 4 you would know that the FPS goes down to 59 with lag and if you have excellent connection it will stay at 60 and it can go up to 61 your statement is false and how would you know the FPS On battlefield?Exactly you dont know that for sure there are no hacks for Battlefield therefore only the developers know so your wrong in so many areas.

Modern warfare 2 runs at 525p Battlefield Bad company to runs at 720p (HD) Which is upscaled to 1080p and Modern warfare 2 it's upscaled to 720p and 1080p. So stop complaining about fps in BF3 Because Battlefield Bad Company 2 Had 30 FPS too And looked WAY BETTER than Modern Warfare 2.

I actually agree with this. When I play BFBC2 I like to have fun and do good but I do it when I'm tired or just bored. When I'm playing MW2 I want it to be fast paced and have a lot of close calls. They're both great in their own ways and I'm sure both will be great.

DeslGltch Everyone seriously needs to shut up about the FPS in MW3. Most of you don't even know what you're talking about, and the ones that talk like they do, really don't know anything... So please shut up.

Also, 60 FPS isn't the reason why people go back to CoD. It's the style of game play, period. Honestly, the producers don't know crap about what brings CoD fan boys back. Most of it is because they are "FAN BOYS". Next reason is the differences between Infinity Ward and Treyarch. It really bugs me how when people hear about a game by Infinity Ward, they automatically think "I can't wait, it's obvious it's going to be better than Treyarch's game!"... Not true. MW2 was a f*ck up. CoD 4 was the only CoD that IW has released that was nearly perfect. Ever since then, they've slowly declined. But now as you can see, they are starting to bring back the old stuff from CoD 4 (the stuff everyone loved).

After IW comes Treyarch. I don't see where the hate for them comes from. They make great games too. Sure Black Ops wasn't good but they did have GREAT concepts. But CoD 3 and WaW were amazing. Plus, in WaW they came up with the best idea in any FPS, Zombies... No one can deny, that it was one of the best game modes ever invented.

Oh so now you guys realize there are FAN BOYS inside of FAN BOYS for CoD players! TREYARCH vs INFINITY WARD!!!!! No... Stop...

Anyways, now comes BF3... BF3 has COMPLETELY different game play compared to CoD. So why compare the two?! It's like comparing Team Fortress 2 to Left 4 Dead...! They are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. Knock some sense into yourselves before you start a big flame war.

Lastly, both games are going to be GREAT! The only difference between what will make them "great" is how well they sell. Obviously MW3 will sell more than BF3, only because CoD has been the #1 game so many times, that's the only game people think about when they hear the letters FPS.

So please, don't get so damn butt hurt the next time you hear Treyarch releasing a new game, or MW3>BF3/BF3>MW3, or 60 FPS means better game play (when 80% of you don't know what the hell you're talking about, you just try to look like you know what you're talking about).

In the last paragraph i meant MW3 is better than BF3 or BF3 is better than MW3...

You sir, are a thinker. Unlike today's generation who speaks but does not think. I like people like you who DO know what they are talking about because they carefully analyze the situation and think it through. You showed enough logic to point out that BF3 should NOT be compared to MW3. Good to know some people actually use their brain.


I know what you mean. Most people just blurt out what comes straight to their head first, whether it's right or wrong. -.- So irritating.

Other than that, thanks for supporting my post! :)
