Treyarch: A bunch of noobs, Call of Duty WaW not worth $10

So, I'm sure you might remember my other Call of Duty World at War dislikes but it's gotten so much worse.

I was hoping for some Double XP weekend to come around but it hasn't. They generally announce them a bit ahead of when they run them on the call of duty website, so I loaded it up to take a peek.

I find out they are planning another map pack which I'm assuming costs $10 again like the last one. Okay, that's fine. I did buy the first one [I shouldn't of] and I'm definitly not buying this one.

Call of Duty World at War is probably the shittest fucking game I've ever played and I'll tell you why. First, let me say, that I try to play it every few days even though it sucks complete balls. Now, I don't suck. I'm an FPS god, and I roll noobs in CoD 1/7 (this would be more like 24/7 but the game don't work that much.

So, Treyarch, why don't you fix your piece of shit game before conning more people out of their money? We've overpaid for this piece of crap already. Sure, maybe the Multiplayer is the main problem in the game but the fact the single player mission took me all of 3-5 hours to beat I'm going out on a limb to say it's definitly all about the MP.

Oh my god the friends list never fucking works!. I have atleast a dozen friends on my list, most add me in CoD. When you get an invite to join their party (which is almost impossible to even SEE) and you join it works about as often as you win the powerball, basically never. I've been invited atleast 2,000 times since I bought the game. Out of those times (probably more, I get invited about 50 times a day!) maybe 10 times has it joined the party. Everyone who plays knows what I'm talking about. The "game session no longer exists". Fucking fix this you idiots!. Oh and it's not just PS3 apparently this is a big issue on XBOX aswell.

How about fixing the fucking problems with the end of the game dropping everyone because "no capable host found" or "game lobby closed" -- It's almost guaranteed to happen after EVERY game unless YOU host. Should it not happen then of course the person who DOES host ends the game because they are getting killed too much, or it LAGS OUT.

Please, I beg you, don't get me started on the fucking hanging of my PS3 that is almost a daily thing!. Yes, I read on the cod forums about the bugs and how you need a hard reset if you join a game while it's being loaded. Well, FIX IT! Stop fucking sucking more money out of the people who BOUGHT THE GAME and FIX IT. Wow! I know my C is hella rusty but send me the code I can't DO MUCH WORSE!.

I don't even want to get in to the other CONSTANT problems but I'll do it anyways. I'm just so fucking angry with this game. It's my favorite ps3 game when it works which sadly is almost NEVER anymore. I swear, on something you find sacred, that it takes almost 30 minutes a whack anymore to find a GAME THAT LASTS IN ITS ENTIRTY. That's absolutely retarded. I demand better. The Call of Duty series was solid and this is just fucking ridiculious.

I don't even like to cuss on my blog and I'm keeping it to a minimum but I just can't take it anymore. I've come so close to breaking the disc. Once I finish prestieging I'm never going to play this piece of crap again. At the rate the games stay up it'll only be 2020 when I complete the additoinal 5 levels of prestiege.

What about the uber shitty ass spawning. Seriously, is it really that hard to make spawn invulnerability for 2-3 seconds?. It's almost ridiculious. I've joined so many games, mid game only to spawn directly in a group of 3 + enenmies or in a pack of dogs, artilerry, or multiple betties. It's not a rarity, it's almost constant. Why is this? Most every FPS I've ever played had some kind of spawn protection for some small duration.

It's not like the "beginning of the game spawn bug" that spawns 1 enemy on the wrong team and usually you can headshot them once the game starts (feel bad for them).

Oh man there's so many other problems with this game but the above need addressed. I know millions of people will give you $10 for your next mappack but I for one will not be one of them. I'd actually like my $60 back for this piece. It's almost as shitty as WWE vs ECW Smackdown 2008 but not quite...

So please, quit finding ways to make $10,000,000 more off something we don't need and fucking fix the shit we DO and that should already WORK.

Lastly I'd like to say seriously don't buy this game if you're thinking about it. Call of Duty Modern Warfare is much much better for ONLINE PLAY. Call of Duty World at War is awesome if you're lucky enough to get it to work proper.

Another horrible bug I read about on the COD forums is the one that actually makes you lose all your stats, rank, etc. Guess how it seems to happen? During hanging which requires a hard reset, kind of like the bug I deal with atleast 3 times a week (and I play like 5 times a week!)

I can see it now, I'm level 64 prestiege 10 with 1 game left to hit 65. Boom, it hangs in that all-to-familiar way and as it reboots it says I'm level 1 with no kills, no deaths, no xp. I'll hope not, but won't hold my breathe.

Good game Treyarch

I think it comes down to your "nat type" while running the internet connection test in PS3. I've tried port forwarding the tcp/udp ports listed by people on google and random forums and the same thing. I even DMZ'd the PS3 and nothing.

If anyone has any clue how to fix this I'd love to know. It definitly has to do with using a router but why port forwarding and/or dmzing doesn't help makes me think it's got to be game related.

Anyways... I think it's a lost cause. It's also boring playing without your friends. Ecspecially when CoD is infested with players who suck and suck bad.

haha, well I'm still mad as fuck about it. .

I think it has to do with DSL on a router. I've not heard much about it being a problem [with the fixes] for cable people.

I'm just so frustrated. Last night I got full games like 12 maps in a row and leveled from 62-64 and today I tried to play for 45 minutes and I gained barely 400 XP the whole time. That's like half a normal game if the game plays through for me.

It's sad, so sad. I definitly won't be buying the new CoD to come out. For WW single player Medal of Honor is leaps above and beyond Call of Duty, but I've never played MP for MoH.

I'll just pray for a better FPS with good net code to come out.
