Worst Gameplay Mechanics

When bullets take you down so fast what would be the point of a knife that doesn't kill you in one hit?

Halo, Gears, and TF2 are balanced with their lack of instant kill melees (excluding assassinations). If we're talking about the core gametypes in COD, bullets do not kill quickly.

In none of those games do the standard weapons kill as fast as CoD.

Also, you are technically wrong if you factor in Spy backstabs.
 
Well I hate TRU (Tomb Raider Underworld), mostly because of that freakin camera and the fact that it was made by Crystal Dynamics, which actually ruined the TR series since TRL...
 
Going up to a guard in Assassins creed and killing someone "stealth" and having the guard go...HUH?! WHO DID THAT!?
 
I think it's pretty hilarious that almost every person hates x-factor. I actually don't hate factor itself really, I just hate the damage boost it gives and the overall stupid high damage of the game.
 
X-factor is broke on sooo many levels. the dmg and the speed just make your character a bastard, but where it gets fucked up is turning anything into a free punish that when combined with the damage is a free kill. if i have x-factor and they dont i will often bait a block string and x-factor for a free kill rather than activate and charge in. It also heals you and your team and has hidden character specific buffs.Then there's the damage reset and ability to extend combos and creating assholish 50/50s (EX: Akuma block string > X-factor > low or f.M mix up = DIRTY SEX COMBO SET UP)

Really they need to nerf the whole damage of the game, there is WAY too much reward for sneaking a jab in on someone. I originally felt meter would limit the explosive combos...but then we learned you can do all your meter building in huge no-meter combos and still do a HUGE chunk of damage. Then they need to take away the ability to get a free punish off of anything with X-factor. If they did that it wouldn't be an issue.

Really the game plays great but there's too much reward in that game and then DHC glitch just sends it over the top.

That's really the main issue in MvC3. It's not so much that X-Factor breaks things, it just exasperates all the other issues the game has, mainly the low health pool and ridiculous need for a 99 second timer (that counts down towards 3 minutes).

If they are in fact, making a new Marvel, the biggest fix would be to buff the health pools of every character and/or lower the amount of damage taken. Level 3 Supers X-Factored can still very damaging, but everything else needs to be fixed so that X-Factor isn't really showing the flaws of the system.

Of course, seeing some tweaks to X-Factor wouldn't be bad either as long as they can balance the other systems.
 
Looks like I'm not the only one who dislike the X-Factor in MVC3. To be honest, it just very cheap for some characters like Sentinel and Akuma for example. Even Dark Phoenix I think.

According to Niitsuma, the overall health pool of almost every character was actually REDUCED. Even Phoenix got a health nerf, which boggles the fucking mind there.

I don't know who this guy is, but he says he asked the question to Niitsuma and Neo G, whom gave that answer during a panel at EVO.

And to stay on-topic...I fucking hate login queues for MMOs...DCUO can suck a dick with their new Megaservers and 1000+ login queue taking over 10 minutes to login. My controller actually turned off before I logged in, wtf??
 
Okay, I got one. The camera from Infamous 2. It is PSYCHOTIC. Every time I get knocked back, I feel like I just stuck my head in a blender...

Well hopefully with them nerfing characters and DHC that lead to so many TOD scenarios...maybe we'll see combos capped so that it off sets this.
 
The leveling system in oblivion, morrowind, etc. I never played for pretty much only this reason. A leveling system that HAS to be gamed or modded is just absurd.
 
When SF4 came out, I really hated Ultra Combos. I would have rather just had supers like all the other games before it. These days, though, I'm over it.
