The XM25 is unlocked at Level 52 in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer. The XM25 functions differently from a regular grenade launcher - when the player aims down the sights, they can mark the distance to the point they are looking at by pressing the sprint button. After a distance is marked and the player shoots, the grenade will explode upon reaching one meter past that distance.

Yep. Fucking awesome.

I'm still not using the piece of shit known as the XM25

What process should I go about uploading clips from my online vault onto Youtube or a video file in general? The only information I can find about uploading clips is through consoles.

[jbthekid]

Can't you download fraps for free? Or some sample of it? If you're playing on PC that is.

[Abrown516]

I could, but there's no direct conversion method?

[hexpunK]

Does MW3 not have the demo functions? I remember someone mentioning them, and the basic demo recording function is usually accompanied by a AVI compiling command. Which could then be uploaded.

[jbthekid]

There is, you need to create a CoD elite account. elite.callofduty.com. It's free, not premium though. Just a basic account. Link your Youtube account to your Elite account by going to “Vault” in COD Elite and clicking where it says “link Youtube account". Load MW3 and go to your saved file in your vault. Render the video (sends it to YouTube). There's also an option to share on Facebook.

[butters757]

Elite isn't available for PC, however.

[jbthekid]

Ahhh, well, I tried at least. Sorry.

[Abrown516]

I got Fraps lol.

Edited:

What the hell is Youtube's problem? Almost 5 hours to upload a 24 second clip?

might be the file's problem or your internet speed.
if you recorded uncompressed your video is going to have massive filesize.

akimbo fmgs, if emptied without missing, can kill a juggernaut

im pissed

[jbthekid]

Yep. They can also be used as a sniper rifle.

[zombini]

I wonder what this "New Innovation" is that Activision is claiming about the next CoD. Oh well, i might bat an eye since Treyarch is in on it. They did a fine job with CoD: World at War.

[jbthekid]

I've got high hopes for Treyarch. They've not let me down as much as IW has, but of course I'll still play IW's games until Black Ops 2, cuz that's how I am.

Yes, Treyarch has made the only Call of Duty games i can stomach. Black Ops was on the edge of shitty though. I'd rather the games be less arcade-like and more "Oh god oh fuck, this is a war, need to survive", rather than "Lool i cans guns down entires squads with handguns".

[jbthekid]

Something about MW2 and MW3 made me feel like I died instantly when shot. Like 1 bullet killed me, but in the killcam it was like 6 bullets. It wasn't like that in CoD4, Black Ops or WaW. Wish they'd go back to the CoD4 type engine, if IW makes another CoD that is. Their story line has ended.

[SurferSasquatch]

Why is it that in Call of Duty, there's always that ONE fucking SMG/Machine Pistol that is ridiculously OP and never gets patched, while people bitch about it endlessly, and shit all around it gets patched into oblivion.

The P90 in COD4, the MP40 in WaW, the UMP-45 in MW2, the 74U in Black Ops, the FMG-9s in MW3.

I mean, fuck.

[jbthekid]

I'm surprised it's not the MP7 in MW3. That gun is crazy good, but not really OP. As soon as the FMG's turn to shit, if they ever do, I have a prediction that the next gun people will be bitching about is the MP7.

I want gameplay to be like STALKER. You can die really easily, but they can too. Leaning around corners to fire off a few rounds, rambo players would die very rapidly, etc. Not as much of the micromanagement of STALKER though, although a magazine based reload system would be nice to add a little depth and realism because not many games use a magazine system where if you reload you lose all rounds left in the gun.

Hardcore describes most of what you just said, except about the magazine part.

I wish they'd make a completely new engine (even if it's based on the old engine) just to remove ALL of the bullshit on the current one, plus allow more room for improvements.
See: Skyrim's "Creation Engine" (aka Gamebryo 2.0)

[King_Goom]

I think that it would be really nice to see a ww2 cod again, i don't know if that's just me though.

[Raijin]

revolutionary war or civil war CoD would be more interesting imo

[radiomonster]

I wonder if IW or Treyarc can pull off a civil war 2 for the united states without pissing anyone off

Creation Engine was better than Bethbryo in so many ways it's hard to say that there were any downsides aside from the crashes.

interesting yes, feasible, i don't think so. Primarily because how the weapons worked during that time.

Eeeh, 74u was pretty nerfed after a while, and pales in comparison to the Galil/FAMAS

[jbthekid]

People complained about the P90 in CoD4 a lot, but did no one even take the time to notice the MP5? I mean, when it was silenced it was hell on earth. It didn't really even need to be silenced, that thing was the bomb diggity.

I am pretty sure the MP5, was one of the few weapons in that game that looked good with a silencer.

[jbthekid]

Yeah, it looked really good. The silencer blended in so well that it didn't even look like it was attached to the gun. Don't forget that sexy blue tiger camo though.

Woah, those players are pretty bad. I mean, he's waggling his rifle all over the place, yet they can't seem to kill him.

the silencer "attachment" actually changed the gun model from MP5-N to MP5SD3.

Which is why it looked friggin' sexy

Yay, I found my CoD4 CD key.
Sadly, I got it from my brother ages ago and he didn't even have the disc, so I'm having to use slow-ass torrents.
