The Ecstasy	Posted - 2009.10.17 23:58:00 - [1] MW2 for the PC will ship with NO dedicated server support, wave good bye to the MOD community and clans. bye bye Quote: * We're doing a lot on the backend to make the game accessible for everyone. * There is no delay for the PC version of MW2 * There's prestige mode * Jason West at the MP event, said that he was dead on, on the matchmaking servers. We've been building a system on the backend called IW.NET. * You are completely reliant on IW.NET. There are no server lists. There are no dedicated servers. * You have private matches where you can customize the game * You cannot put MW2 on a dedicated server. * This is the first time we've ever done something like this and the team has huge plans for what IW.NET develops into. * Customizing your game...you have quite a few options in a private match * You're getting same game (as in Console), plus matchmaking and private match. * Server admin point-of view, NO DEDICATED SERVERS
MooKids Caldari Azure Twilight Engineering	Posted - 2009.10.18 00:31:00 - [2] Edited by: MooKids on 18/10/2009 00:31:53 I don't think a boycott is in order, but this will certainly come to bite them in the ass. EDIT: Just realized I forgot to ask. Where did you get this information from? Linkage! -------------------------------- CCP can patch away bugs, but they can't patch away stupidity.
The Ecstasy	Posted - 2009.10.18 01:39:00 - [3] Sorry, try www.bashandslash.com but by this time tommorow the news will be everywhere.
Bellum Eternus Gallente Death of Virtue MeatSausage EXPRESS	Posted - 2009.10.18 10:38:00 - [4] I just took a look at OOPE so I could make a post about this. Looks like you beat me to it by a few min. Hehe. MW2 won't be getting dedicated servers for the PC. Yet again, consoles are **ing up PC FPS. I made the mistake of buying Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, as it has no dedicated PC server support. Now the PC community is hearing rumors of a dedicated server for the PC version of OFPDR which is good news. I can't believe that IW is so stupid as to do this. My brother and I run a server hosting company, and we've just cancelled all our pre-orders for MW2. That's about three DOZEN copies of the game that we were going to license in order to get our servers up and running on release day. Oh well, another non-game hits the shelves. I won't be buying it for PC and I sure as hell won't be buying it for a console. You'd think these ****s would learn by now. -- Bellum Eternus Inveniam viam aut faciam.* Tier 5 Battleships
Deathhawk Hammersmith Hardmen Exquisite Malevolence	Posted - 2009.10.18 11:01:00 - [5] these games are better on consoles anyway :) i will be getting it and loving it yay Chuck Norris wears Deathhawk pyjamas One image per sig please. Zymurgist Forum **** at its best. DH

Irida Mershkov Gallente War is Bliss	Posted - 2009.10.18 11:37:00 - [7] Originally by: Bellum Eternus You'd think these *******s would learn by now. Don't be stupid. If anything, this doesn't bother me as I prefer the console versions, never got on with the PC ones myself.
Xeaon Minmatar Lollipops for Rancors REIGN Alliance	Posted - 2009.10.18 11:41:00 - [8] Edited by: Xeaon on 18/10/2009 11:41:55 Think i'll actually cancel my order because of this Is it only valve that make fps games for pc now? Saying that even l4d had this ** /facepalm ------------ Originally by:** Righteous Fury Eve is not about the old preying on the new, its about the smart preying on the utterly incompetent.
Eran Laude Gallente The Aduro Protocol	Posted - 2009.10.18 11:51:00 - [9] I had been considering pre-ordering MW2 until I saw this, but I'm now firmly back in the boycott camp. I won't give money to Activision if they won't: a) Lower the RRP to normal price points b) Stop acting like almighty douches c) Support dedicated servers on the home of the FPS. ----- Originally by: "CCP Whisper" Boo hoo. Cry some more.
Xen Gin Silurian Operations	Posted - 2009.10.18 12:55:00 - [10] Hmmm, I was buying the game for partly the singleplayer and the multiplayer. If L4D and console matchmaking tells me anything is that they never work right, ever. I think I shall wait and see until after release to get the game now. ## You got that? Right I'll be back in approximately 300 seconds to retort! ##

Dansel Gallente Omega-Fleet Motivated and Determined	Posted - 2009.10.18 14:00:00 - [14] For a less "Geeky" person, would someone minds explaining, or linking to an explanation, what the dedicated server EXACTLY does? Originally by: JitaBum Originally by: Deathhawk these games are better on consoles anyway :) are you on drugs I'm always on drugs And by the way, they should really separate sigs from the main post.
Lord Windu Echelon Warfare Unit	Posted - 2009.10.18 14:00:00 - [15] I play Eve and a number of single player games on the laptop but when it comes to things like COD, I get them on the PS3 as there is nothing better than lounging on the sofa while shooting people in the head. Also using the console I have friends round and we play split screen which is always good with a few drinks. ------ In Before Kanye West
Tamia Clant New Dawn Corp New Eden Research	Posted - 2009.10.18 14:15:00 - [16] Originally by: Dansel For a less "Geeky" person, would someone minds explaining, or linking to an explanation, what the dedicated server EXACTLY does? Dedicated servers are servers created by players, in which they have full control over. (kicking players out, installing server mods, etc)
MooKids Caldari Azure Twilight Engineering	Posted - 2009.10.18 14:35:00 - [17] Dedicated servers are computers devoted just to running the game. In essence like the EVE servers, although on a much smaller scale. More resources are in place enabling a larger number of players to participate in a game and smoother gameplay. As opposed to non-dedicated where the game is hosted by one player who is also playing. The processing power is diminished as it has to do two major things at once. This is also how some console games play, I know some of you have played Halo matches where someone leaves and it stops the game, because that player was hosting it. -------------------------------- CCP can patch away bugs, but they can't patch away stupidity.
Kappas. Galaxy Punks	Posted - 2009.10.18 15:06:00 - [18] So no more 50+ players on one server? Always thought the maps were a bit too empty on consoles. __________________
Teetxe	Posted - 2009.10.18 16:16:00 - [19] Console fps is ** house. Its slower, and made for ****ed jocks who 10 years ago were calling gamers losers. Any true FPS gamer knows they need a pc. Congrats console jocks, you've ruined yet another great title. Also, being an australian this will basically kill MW2 in Aus/NZ. Not that IW care, we are after all only a fraction of their sales.

You can do everything you listed using a Computer and the experience is easily a thousand times more enjoyable. _____________________________________ Haruhiist since December 2008 Originally by: CCP Fallout :facepalm:
Arcirya	Posted - 2009.10.18 17:16:00 - [22] No dedicated servers No mods No custom maps gg Activision, then they'll blame sales on piracy and make it a console exclusive Their CEO even said he wants to "take all the fun out of making video games", no joke
Randomness17	Posted - 2009.10.18 17:21:00 - [23] Uber-nerd tears are so delectible. Seriously its just another game.

Kappas. Galaxy Punks	Posted - 2009.10.18 17:50:00 - [25] There's a petition with 21000 signatures on it already __________________
Sys Root	Posted - 2009.10.18 17:54:00 - [26] Originally by: Bellum Eternus My brother and I run a server hosting company, and we've just cancelled all our pre-orders for MW2. I run a LAN center and we just did the same. It's sad because we run COD4 tournaments on the weekends and the guys were really looking formward to MW2. Hope IW reconsiders, these are tournaments with real money prizes so competition is pretty stiff and we obviously need full control on the box running the server, having the server hosted by a 3rd party is unacceptable.

Saying that even l4d had this **** /facepalm Wait, what? L4D has plenty of dedicated servers and mods. Though I hate that they didn't have the server window like CS:S and etc. do by default, but it -is- there. Just gotta go to the consol and type "openserverbrowser" or w/e the command was. (Been ages since I've had to use it or even think of it.)

(Been ages since I've had to use it or even think of it.) A recent patch made is so when you attempted to start a lobby on a dedicated server, if you didn't find one straight away it went straight to starting a local without even saying a thing. ## You got that? Right I'll be back in approximately 300 seconds to retort! ##
Bestofworst Gallente	Posted - 2009.10.18 19:30:00 - [29] No custom servers? No zombies. I'm not getting it. ---- My Music Anything I say is only what I think. If you have a problem with me, take it up with me.
