Modern Warfare 3 Weapon Rebalancing and More on “Panic Knifing” - XboxMB

Modern Warfare 3?s creative strategist, Robert Bowling, discusses panic knifing, quickscoping, weapon balancing, and potential nerf to Type-95.Earlier today, we reported on Bowling’s suggestions on how to deal with panic knifing. In a nutshell, Bowling suggested that players should be careful when walking around corners. This advice aggravated one fan to jokingly demand Bowling to remove corners all together. Robert’s response was quite amusing, “roger. Got it, the answer to camping is to remove all corners. Call of Duty: Circle Warfare will be amazing.” Now that panic knifing is under the magnifying glass, one fan suggested that everyone hates it. Bowling disagreed, “the guy doing the knifing is loving it.” Another fan tried to persuade Bowling by bringing up the realism argument in regards to knifing, Robert answered “that’s the thing about war in video games and war in real life. One is fun; the other is real.” In terms of quickscoping, some players believe that there is a difference in quickscoping mechanics between semi-automatic rifles and bolt actions, Robert refuted these claims, “I don’t believe so. It should be the same mechanic.”

So using an in game attack is over powered? Knifing isn't over powered at all. We use it because it kills the enemy and it's a last resort since shooting won't do it.

They're listening to all the cry babies of MW3 and not the real players who wants something worthwhile, not something to help all the garbage kids crying because they chose to play a game that takes something more then a button push.

Aren't they on their 9th patch for this game? It's only been out for 4 months lol they rushed this game and that's why it's so broken. To me its gonna be a year before its playable in my eyes on well other games are 10x more fun then MW3 anyway

That is their list of updates, hotfixes, and what they are working on now.

Honestly I think that if developers weren't so lazy we should have updates almost every 2 weeks. Not because the game is broken, but to make the game better. But no developer seems to want to do that though.
