My(bestguess) roadmap for MW3 dedicated server functionality.

Use any box you like anywhere you want.= Sweet!

The catch is,

The game(client and server) has to run the CoD elite software to communicate with the server browser.
The CoD elite software will self update and check for valid clients.
The Activision host server(browser server) will scan all game servers for valid/updated CoD elite software.

There will be no mapping tools.
You(Joe Gamer) will still buy all your maps as dlc.
Servers will still probably get dlc maps for free(we would hope).
Again, the CoD elite software will check if all clients and dlc are legal.

In all honesty, I could live with this. This is much better than the last two games.

Thoughts?
Lets here your ideas on how the devs could pull this off while still filling Bobby's pockets with loot...because we all know the game sales alone are not enough.

Disclaimer: I am still getting HoS and BF3. They both look too good to pass up.
I am still entitled to raise holy hell when Activision sends their whipping boy(Robert XBox 360 Bowling) out to sh*t on the PC crowd "again".

Where'd you pull this info from?

I have already bought RO2 and BF3, but... Do you know that BF3 will not have in game server browser? no mod tools? no mapping tools etc etc. And you are whinning about MW3 ?

then how else does it work in bf3?

Having no in-game browser doesn't bother me because I have used Battlelog and know what it is like. No mod or map tools doesn't effect me either as a player because I always have fun with the stuff that comes with the game. Plus with my very blank internet connection, I hate having to sit and wait for stuff to download and I would much prefer just jumping into a server that doesn't have mods. That's one of the reasons I get pissed off with Killing Floor is that it doesn't have an option to filter for servers without custom content (if that exists?). CoD 4 was the same for me especially on custom map servers where I would download a map only for the round to change and I had to download another. Frustrating as hell when all you want to do is play. The way BT are going at the moment with high speed broadband in my area I doubt I'll have fast connection soon.

I pulled it from my ass. It says so right at the top. "My(bestguess) roadmap for MW3 dedicated server functionality".

I also ask for other peoples opinions on how they think it will work. Not sure how much clearer I could be.



Please point out where I'm whining about MW3. I gave my ideas on how dedis will work for MW3 and asked other people for their input and ideas.

Maybe, I should draw pictures next time.

Visual management...for those who's best friends are crayons.


btw...love your disclaimer +1

DoOkie: eaaaasy man... recently I see only "whinning" ;]

btw. I'm still waiting about "competitive" fps... maybe... CS:GO, RO2....maybe. MW3? BF3? don't think so

How do you think dedicated servers will REALLY work in MW3?

Same as black ops and ''limited'' mod tools will arrive later ... same as bo.

''INSERT COIN'' for more answers peeew peeeeew peeeeeeeeeew

whats that mean that cod-elite will check for legit files?

i thought it was your choice to buy into that pathetic crap? hell if i am. As said in previous threads i dont care for my pub stats (ranked servers). I'm gonna get my max level and start scrimming asap in unranked servers where that blank won't even count those stats so its worthless. And besides screenshots speak for themselves. I dont need a "battlefield sig" to say who i am.
