any of you guys have a problem that in the Menus there is lag? LIke I get lag from going from the main menu to the multiplayer menu. (What I mean is that the smoke surrounding the soildier is really choppy). I also hear my disc spinning a lot when I start my game up even though I have installed the game to my HD. Also, after any match, it seems like it is going to freeze my system, and then after a few seconds later it pops up the previous match specs.

I've been reading this problem around the net .. seems like I'm not the only person having this problem. ... :s IW better fix this. Apparently from my research, this is happening after the latest patch was applied.

Mine does the same thing, almost like the game got uninstalled. I am going to try and uninstall the game and reinstall it to see if it fixes the problem. The lag however I do not have, it's smooth it just takes a second to load the multiplayer screen then hitting Xbox Live presents a delay while it loads the online profile.

I've been reading the dashboard update Microsoft released for security is screwing with retail discs, so that may be why it's spinning. I noticed my MW3 disc started spinning up when I'm playing after I got that update, but I never really paid any attention to it until I read about it. You aren't the only one having that problem. As for your other issues, I'm not sure about that.

this game needs to stop catering to noobs... it's kind annoying. especially douches who have no idea how to play DOM and camp a spawn point that literally will do nothing but make us lose the game.

also, a lot of people bitch about the spawn system in this game, but it makes sense and completely adds more strategy to the game. the game will always spawn you to the safest location one of your teamates are at (that why i hate people who camp in DOM at places that aren't gonna help you win a game). So if you have a dumbass on your team who is camping a random spot where no one is, you will spawn there, but if you team is all together fighting then you will spawn closer to them and closer to the actually fight.

Playing objective based game modes in almost any CoD game is really frustrating most of the time. More often than not, it seems I'm on a team that literally doesn't care about the objective at all. They just want to get some kills and kill streaks. I just finished a game in which we were getting dominated and my teammates were walking by the flags because they wanted to kill people.

Agreed. If you want to play TDM, go and play fricken TDM. Don't join Domination because you suck at TDM and frequently finish in the bottom 3 and the only way to look better in kills is to play a mode that's objective based instead of frag based....

Gah!

Grinds my gears...

My COD experiences... spawn, die, spawn, run 5m, get headshot, spawn, shotgun kill in the back, spawn, helicopter/missle takes me out, spawn, run, shoot enemy, get a kill, die straight after kill from enemy buddy, spawn, die from grenade, etc :p

Finding it as difficult as I normally do to get used to a fast paced shooter. I went about 4-17 the other day :(

LOL

My experience is pretty much the same.

Not that I have gone 4-17 or anything.

I guess this kind of gameplay suites some people

I'm quite skilled in MW3 and I also find myself getting killed again and again by grenades, air support, and people that spawn behind me. I think it's attributed to a bad spawn system and poor map design. MW2 had better maps that were more open.

I rented MW3 before trying it, knowing what I was getting into. I do agree, there is some really annoying aspects such as spawning as well as tiny maps. The maps truly do feel smaller than any COD before, which is saying something because they're small to begin with. But... I've since returned it after beating SP and trying out MP with a 2+ k/d after 20 some-odd games, I'll probably get MW3 bargain price (lulz cod bargain!?) to play yet another shooter with my roommates.

this is the same good MP from any of the MW games, and similar to Black Ops. it's more challenging than any of the ones before, though, i don't think it's due to poor design - maybe smaller maps? and the perks actually make more of a difference now. i'm too old to get frustrated by gaming anymore, so for me a ridiculous K/D ratio is fine.

I don't really care about K/D. Well I do but not that much.

What I do care about is me having fun and where I'm having fun, K/D matters little

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.

      with LSTC and ESU, moving to w11 or linux because w10 suddenly will not work when in reality it works and its a better choice, of course there are also developers that only test in 11 or force you to have TPM and Secure boot for the sake of "better security" in games. or most likely people is buying new PC that only ship with 11

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original

      Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.

      Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.
