Haxfar Portlaind	Posted - 2009.11.10 11:42:00 - [31] ...But it 's Call of Duty... The buy duty calls!
MooKids Caldari Azure Twilight Engineering	Posted - 2009.11.10 12:16:00 - [32] Originally by: Cys Root A lot of LAN centers are boycotting this, including my own. We had 14 copies on preorder and we cancelled them all when they made the "no dedicated servers" BS announcement. We're sticking with COD4 atm...untill something better comes out. We host tournies with real money involved and we can't get away with anything less than total control over the server. If you have really good computers, running either Vista or Windows 7, may I recommend Shattered Horizon? Its a new multiplayer only game, costs $20 and takes place in zero-G. A bit challenging and takes some time to get used to, but it does have dedicated server support. It does require Steam as well, I hope that isn't an issue. -------------------------------- CCP can patch away bugs, but they can't patch away stupidity.
Kappas. Galaxy Punks	Posted - 2009.11.10 13:04:00 - [33] Originally by: baltec1 Originally by: Gneeznow I was playing it earlier and its really good dunno what you purist crybabies are whining about 9v9 matches? No thanks I'll stick with the older game and its 68 player games. 60+ player games were good for leveling up quickly, for actually having any sort of skill they weren't. If people had actually played it and hated it I'd be fine with that, but people just posting out of spite because dedicated servers aren't in it are pretty lame. Fakedit: yes it sucks having no dedicated servers, however the maps that are in it aren't really suited to any more than there are currently in it, especially with the way the new killstreak rewards system works with having to pick up boxes to get them - you'd have no chance. __________________
Brolly Caldari Legion of Anubis	Posted - 2009.11.10 13:32:00 - [34] I'm gonna wait a year and get the GOTY, no point paying ú50+ just for a game
Neyro7830 Gallente The 5th Freedom Wildly Inappropriate.	Posted - 2009.11.10 13:41:00 - [35] Lets see... 60$ for a game with 5 hours of singleplayer, and 9v9 crapfest MP. No thanks. IW.net is a ****ing joke. Oh god how did this get here I am not good with computer
Mag's the united Negative Ten.	Posted - 2009.11.10 14:37:00 - [36] Most replies on the Infinity forum so far, seem to be saying 'I told you so' People having connection issues in multiplayer, 60 second waits with 'host migration' and some not even finding games for minutes at a time. Only 1 bolt action sniper, silenced .50 cal (lol), very 'arcade' feel to the game, plus so many obvious signs it's a console port, rather than built for PC. All in all, it's not a patch on CoD 4 MW, so I'm glad I cancelled my pre-order.
Drunk Driver Gallente Aliastra	Posted - 2009.11.10 14:44:00 - [37] Edited by: Drunk Driver on 10/11/2009 14:45:54 Originally by: Irida Mershkov Originally by: Drunk Driver Originally by: SpaceMagic So new Call Of Duty Is out today at midnight 00:01 , A lot of me mates are calling me sad for getting up at midnight to go get a game anyone else doing the same? No. It's just another first person shooter in a market full of first person shooters. It doesn't have features people want. A lot of people will not buy it. But many more will buy it. I don't doubt some of the clueless will buy it. However Infinity Ward has too much justly deserved bad press. Their sales will take a major hit. None of my gaming buddies are going to buy it. There's just too many other good games to play. We don't need to waste our money on a sub par product.
SpaceMagic Amarr The Arrow Project	Posted - 2009.11.10 14:55:00 - [38] well i went and bought it there was about 300 poeple there lol lucky i qued up way before, this game is the game of games, pure awsomness

Sure 68 people running around is mad but I like it. Not having dedicated servers just makes cheaters an even bigger issue not to mention the fact that the arsewipes cant be kicked, no ability to make a game last for a while and the crappyness of the connections comming into play that wins people the game before its even started. Single player might be fantastic but the multiplayer part of it is one of the worst I have seen in years.
Motaka Caldari	Posted - 2009.11.10 17:03:00 - [41] Edited by: Motaka on 10/11/2009 17:04:20 Originally by: Mag's Most replies on the Infinity forum so far, seem to be saying 'I told you so' People having connection issues in multiplayer, 60 second waits with 'host migration' and some not even finding games for minutes at a time.

All in all, it's not a patch on CoD 4 MW, so I'm glad I cancelled my pre-order. News flash,most if not all AAA tiles are made for consoles then ported to PC,not the other way round,and i also love the fact that you state its not as good as CoD 4 without actually playing it. I have played it and its a good game,not game of the year good thou that would be Uncharted 2.
Grimpak Gallente Noir. Noir. Mercenary Group	Posted - 2009.11.10 17:20:00 - [42] well I made a visit to the IW forums to see how the flames are there, and there's something that made me laugh: Quote: Today I called my local EGgames just to see how sales for the PC were. I live in a city of aprox. 92,000 people, there are 4 EBgames within my city, but the main one(where I buy all of my stuff from) allowed me to talk to the manager. When I asked about MW2 he said sales are steady FOR the XBOX. I asked about the PC, and I will quote him here, he said... "The game is not balanced for play on the PC", I said "Sorry, could you say that again!" and he repeated it!!! ROFLMAO I told him I was going to boycott the PC sales a week ago, and he applauded me for boycotting the game. SO I had to ask "Seriously, how many PC sales" "Zero" as of 10:30 am est the store was open at 8am He said he will call me after 6pm with the tally from all stores in my town!!! "The game is not balanced for play on the PC" Manager @ local EBgames here's the thread. --- Quote: The more I know about humans, the more I love animals. ain't that right.

I have played it and its a good game,not game of the year good thou that would be Uncharted 2. News flash, games are created on a PC/server network for whatever platform. If the Devs do a fine job, then each platform gets it's own dedicated attention to detail. The Devs told us, that MW2 PC version gets 'mouse control, chat and graphics changes' great stuff, I'll get my credit card ready. Oh and where did I say I haven't played it. As you say, it's NOT game of the year, although CoD 4 was. It all comes down to the MP, if I want to play 9v9 console FPS, I'll buy an XBox or PS3.
Nova Fox Gallente Novafox Shipyards	Posted - 2009.11.11 03:04:00 - [45] Campaign was a fresh ordeal, the bar raised again with this sequel in terms of action and storytelling. Graphics are on par, it mets the desires of the art department and on spot without framerate issues or horrible glitches beyond obvious. Human body physics still needs a little bit more help and the atmosphere presented is excellent for story telling or drivng the pace of combat in multiplayer. Sound is excellent, great musing to motivate the game play though its story. My only complaint now is that your 'avatar' in multiplayer now talks instead of 'HQ: Voice of god' all the time. but its a minor complaint none the less. also running around with a fully automatic shotgun with a silencer is funny. Even though I do have a computer capapble of running Call of duty on it I dont do so as my personal experince with the local dedicated servers that are under 500 ms ping to banned me for being better than the server's owner or playing 'unfairly'. So I basically gave that up on PC versons of alot of games anyways, At least the 360 version usually never lagsd out, find a match within 20 seconds and new host within 10. Pre-order your Sisters of ≡v≡ Exploration ship today, Updated 11OCT09

Orion Eridanus Dark Ashes	Posted - 2009.11.11 04:27:00 - [47] Yo Modern Warfare 2, I'm really happy for you and imma let you finish, but World in Conflict was the best soviet/Russian invasion of the US of all time Originally by: Paulo Damarr That is a most Excellent Drake fitting, you are lucky to have survived.
Myleena	Posted - 2009.11.11 08:12:00 - [48] I think what Infinity have done with MW2 has gone over peoples heads like CCP integrating a console game with PC MMO. Console shooter = 12yr olds running around with aimbots (no skill). P2P multiplayer on PC = 12yr olds running around with aimbots (no moderation). So they have very effectively brought the PC players in line with what console gamers have always done. Bravo! Go them!

ViRUS Pottage THE FINAL STAND	Posted - 2009.11.11 13:30:00 - [52] All of you should stfu and stop juding the game based on what your gay little troll friends say. Play the **ing game and stop saying it is because you don't like something in it. I've been playing for about 12 hours now. My opinion? It's better than COD4 ever was (pub wise). No lean? GOOD. Now people cant use lean left bug. 9v9? GOOD. No more 40 people with rpds just mowing down people through 200 walls and massive nade fests. No Dedis? Well, it might not be the best idea, but the matchmaking works pretty damn good. Soon as i click on TDM or whatever gametype I want, I'm matched up with however many players pretty much instantly. For whoever posted that screenshot of everyone with 800 ping, that's just unlucky. Cause I played all day yesterday, and only 3 games I played were even slightly laggy - amd then the host migration kicked in, which works flawlessly. The guns are awesome. Perfectly balanced. Bullet reg is pretty damn good, better than COD4 at times. I've just woke up, so I can't really think of anything else to say, other than sotop judging the game based on screenshots. 70% of people are trying to put the game down just because of no dedis - trust me - it's a good game. ___________ Originally by:** CCP Taera May I have your stuff?

Destination SkillQueue Are We There Yet	Posted - 2009.11.11 14:05:00 - [54] Originally by: ViRUS Pottage stuff Any comments on the single player aspect. I won't buy it because of the lol multiplayer downgrade(glad you like, but I like server communities and custom content), but might rent it, if the single player content has some value.
Ealiom Allied Tactical Squadron	Posted - 2009.11.11 14:06:00 - [55] I bought it for the PC yesterday. Installed and played through i think half of the campaign before hitting the multiplayer side of it. Single player game is NOT as good as CoD4 and the multiplayer was good. Matches were all instant. I dont care much for massive 64 player games. Skill quickly goes out the window when winning involves either hiding and shooting at those passing by or running around in 'rage' But again the single player campaign is nowhere near as good as CoD4 so for that and the fact the multiplayer hasn't changed much I have to say CoD4 is better..... so far. I'll likely finish it tonight. Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies. Much better you than I. Blackbird Executioner

I have a response to all that waffle. One of the best and most honest reviews so far. Quote:** We're massive fans of Modern Warfare here. Even though purists and elitists may sneer, we had no problem in awarding a 10/10 for Call of Duty 4, because it was such a terrific effort on console AND PC. If you told me three months ago we would be suggesting PC gamers hold off on buying Modern Warfare 2 I would have thought you're crazy. But if you are buying this game mainly for multiplayer - especially if you're contemplating serious competitive play at a high level - that's exactly what we're saying. The single player story is great, and if your idea of multiplayer is a quick zap with mates maybe an hour or two a week then by all means - it's great for your purposes. However if you're a Counterstrike, Battlefield, ETQW or even a COD4 player looking for a serious competitive platform to move to - best wait. Wait and see if Infinity Ward can implement dedicated server support; failing that wait until early next year to see how Battlefield: Bad Company 2 turns out.

Exactly what I was worried about has been realized. If you play on PC, and buy MW2 for the multiplayer, you are wasting your money. I'll be making a "security copy" for singleplayer, but I will not give Infinity Ward a single cent until they address this.

KingsGambit Caldari Knights	Posted - 2009.11.11 14:42:00 - [59] Edited by: KingsGambit on 11/11/2009 14:43:11 A friend received this yesterday and has had plenty to say about MW2 today. Even excepting the lack of a dedicated server (and thus custom maps and mods) and a max of 8 or 9 max player teams (as opposed to 32 I believe) the game doesn't have in game profiles like CoD4 did. So only one person can actually play the campaign or have a MP profile (with stats, perks, etc). Because it's linked to a steam login, there's absolutely no way two different people can play the same game, even on the same computer. I played and enjoyed CoD4, though no more so than I did MoH back in the day. It was a good game and the MP was fun, albeit annoying (whoever thought up air strikes should be shot) but not best game ever despite it's success and acclaim. I'm not fussed about no. 2, but it seems to be Activision have taken out all the things that seperates a great game from merely a good one. MW2 is a step backwards from it's predecessor in all ways except graphically. It's pretty pathetic, don't know why people will pay activision to let them get away with crap like that. -------------
