Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nation (by Gameloft) [Universal]

[Chocolate]

Wow, this game is mindblowing. Just played the first few scenes of the campaign on my iPad 2. For a moment I second guessed my PS Vita preorder. LOL! But only for a second. :-)

But seriously, this game is remarkable. Graphics are superb, and the controls (when set to classic) work as well as possible with a touch screen interface. Really nice work Gameloft -- I hope you paid the people who made this game well, because they earned it.

starting to crash occasionally on my ipod touch 4th gen. Its not too bad though, as it's only once every like level or so, and the levels are long. I believe if I reboot my ipod again, it'll run as smooth as it did at first.

Also on multiplayer; chances r this is just the wifi cuz i had it on MC2 occasionally as well, it will lag and ill look like im moving normally but everyone else is super slowmo. then i lose connection. Pretty annoying, but I can live with it.

Also, the single player crahses are always after a loading section or something along those lines, not in the middle of the action

Yeah, its's pretty bad. Like I said in my previous post, it can be pretty unbearable. The only reason I would need less sensitivity is if I'm going to camp. I like to rush a lot, but can't do that in MC3. My whole gameplay strategy of maneuvering around a bunch of guys, kinda, went out the window. If I want to do well on the leaderboards, I'm forced to camp or play the game kind of slow. I'm going to play some Zombieville 2 and wait for an update, especially for the ranking reset; that's happened to me 4 times now.

I tend to trust the forums more than most sites due to bias, but the game is really great. It just has some major flaws, IMHO.

Yeah, I have it maxed out, but with the way I play shooters it isn't enough. When you can't do a quick sight, you need to be able to maneuver like crazy, That means quickly aiming from one person to the next while running around. With the current sensitivity settings, I can kill the first guy; then i get easily (too easily) shot down by the others when I'm re-aiming.

Get with it Gameloft easy Implimentation, but since they write these game for multiple platforms Lilly we will never see this.

Yup! If this wan't multi-platform we would see a lot more of iOS elements implemented. I'm also not sure if this is a cross platform game, if it isn't then I really think some things should've been added that are missing.

Effing Christ. Honestly, I've been trying to download this for an hour. I freed up my iPhone 4 to 2.3 Gb's yet it's saying that apparently, it doesn't have enough space to download a 1.1Gb game.

Honestly, this is so frustrating.

Yeah, I cleared up 3 gigs of space for it. Like I said, look forward to 2GB of updates.

That's because it is in a zipped format. From my experience, you need (just for installation) the zipped amount (1.1 gigs) and the unzipped amount (1.8 gigs). After it is installed you can fill up the 1.1 gigs

Poo, I got up 4 ranks in one match, but after the match the servers wouldn't reload.. I just lost all that.. Plus 6k. I noticed this bug on Deadlock also. =_= fffffffffff

Yeah, this is a b*tch of a bug; I've lost all my progress way too many times now. So, I've been doing some mild ranting about this and a couple other things. I probably won't put as much time into MC3, as I thought I would, until this and the sensitivity get updated. Either that or I'll just play single player.

hmmm my initial impression was wrong, the good graphics only happened on level one. they only make destructible environment on level one and the rest of the next level i played is just feels like mc2, not polished, not great. they did it also with 9mm(only the first level graphics are great). whatever i thought they will surprise me with this release but apparently they didn't. universal built and 6.99?that i can't complained.forget to say the enemy AI is improving but my allies AI is just stupid.
