MW3

I think I want to get this.

My question to gaming nerds. I am very much a beginner at this game. If I play online are there beginner games that I can join.

I won't even bother if my only option is to play the experts who hide behind trees and blow everyone up.

That was the problem with Madden online. You start a game against somebody. The opening kickoff they do an onside kick, recover and score the next play. If you ever scored, they knew how to block extra points. Not fun.

New releases especially, plenty of noobs floating around just like you.

I actually hate playing with you.

Buy it around Christmas. The amount of Noobs playing after they get it will reach critical mass.

Just play private games with people you already know. It's what I do. I can't stand to play against people who take the game too seriously or spend 23 hours a day playing.

I don't know people that play games. Maybe like one other person.

With these MP Shooters there is a learning curve for noobs like most games. Of course when you begin you will feel completely lost and hopeless. Trust me it takes a little time mostly to get to know the maps and get a feel for the game. After a while the game slows down and you should find yourself playing competetively.

I have learned that some players ranked twice as high that have played tons of hours more are not really any better than me. I'm no pro either. Im average and can hang in most games.

What I'm saying is don't let the initial beat down you're gonna receive get you down. Play through it and you should be fine. Now if 6 weeks later you're still going 2-14 in kills to death??? maybe this game isnt for you...:D

Good advice. To the OP, regardless of it being a new game, if you aren't accustomed to playing FPS games, the learning curve is going to be steep. If you are a FPS veteran, then the only thing you need worry about are tactics and controls specific to the game.
