MW3 Dev Considers Non-Lethal Deathstreaks For Next CoD
If you missed it, Creative Strategist, Robert Bowling, recently shared his views about deathstreaks like Final Stand, which got some dialogue (hopefully constructive) happening between fans and himself.
In case you haven’t noticed, much of the community, especially the vocal ones, share a general dislike (dare I say hatred?) of the inclusion of Deathstreaks which Bowling has been taking into consideration lately. Though, he does argue that “stats show people use Deathstreaks (lethal ones) a lot.” Earlier, he mentioned that it’s simply a compromise that MW3 developers had to agree on. Luckily, it seems the developers are open to change. Though Deathstreaks will not be taken out of Modern Warfare 3, or perhaps even in the next instalment of the series, Bowling admits that “they could be rebalanced.” For example, when asked if it’s possible that the blast radius of Dead Man’s Hand be lowered, Bowling answered, “it’s possible, we’re always looking at balancing. No plans announced currently though.”
To be more specific, it seems that it’s the lethal Deathstreaks like Final Stand and Dead Man’s Hand that the community mostly has a grudge against. Bowling would tell you, “I agree, two of my least favorite deathstreaks. They’re here to stay for MW3,” unfortunately. At least non-lethal ones like Copycat and Juiced still give an unlucky/unskilled player a boost in performance without having such a negative effect on other players. To fans who have thought that it would simply be better if all Deathstreaks were non-lethal, Bowling states, “I agree.” He added, “the best thing players can do is stop using them. If we see people prefer non-lethal over lethal = Change.” He went on to mention that, “every game is unique, there’s no reason to think [Deathstreaks] would or would not be in any future iteration. Feedback does help shape that.” It is likely that developers will consider this for their next title in the Call of Duty franchise, which you know there will be.
Here’s to non-lethal Deathstreaks in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4!

You all are a bunch of crying bitches. All of the Call of Duty's are fine. They can never make the game perfect for all of you. No matter what they do there will always be people like all of you who always complain because they feel the need to offer nonconstructive criticism. I just play the game to have fun or competitively and don't bitch because I know I am the source of the problem for the game and I know how to fix it, by playing smarter.. For all of you who are like this, enjoy your time.

Deathstreaks are for ****** who suck ass at the game. Get them out, because it pisses us real gamers off.

TTG_V3ry_P1ss3d I think what people are asking for is a more "realistic" game.
Not with all these super powers and death streaks.
Perks should be how they were in cod4 and waw.
And bring back stopping power.
If they bring back stopping power, I want back juggernaut.

pooky177ttg_pyongbulletxtoothx no infinity ward killed codthey actually made it more popular when the made call of duty 4
He didn't say they didn't make it good, he simply said they killed it, which they did. BO2 > MW2/3
COD2&COD4:MW > every other cod title

Just take out death streaks all together shit. Don't reward players for being bad. That would be like the NBA giving a team free shots after they missed 5 times in a row.
I've been killed 3 times by deadmans hand when I was 2 kills away from my MOAB.
Treyarch > IW

cranKKKDUGL4S Deathstreaks need to go. Why should players be rewarded for doing poorly? I should't have to kill a guy once then kill him AGAIN only to be blown up. Its not fair to the skilled players such as myself.
wao you got skills?in MW3?lol
Yea I do. Just like every other shooter. Infinity ward needs to stop dumbing it down for the new players and the people that just suck at the game. It doesn't matter. I still play CoD 4 since it is balanced really well. I traded in MW3 for Mass Effect 3.
