MW2

Another blow to the PC CoD MW2 fan base, multiplayer is capped at 9v9. They're so gonna get hosed by all of this.
 
Ban wave 3 has begun on xbox live today, which includes most non US consoles that are modded, and people who played MW2 early.
 
Damn, a friend of mine got a copy yesterday, so im callin around tryin to find one lol. The store he got it at said to call back tomorrow but hopefully i can find one tonight lol
 
MW2 for the PC is officially dead to me :| stupid ass infinity ward :(
 
9v9 for pc?! really?! WHY? its understood just by common sense and my personal experience that 32 vs 32 is too much as it was for cod 4. but, to limit it to 9v9?! that isnt even enough to have a good time. 12vs12 on pc is barely enough for fun.

also, from what i have heard, the leaning option has been removed also. which is another stupd move. was said to be removed due to balance issues?
if you dont know what it is, on pc, you have the ability to lean your head around a corner without exposing your body by using the Q and E buttons. this is one of the features that cod has used since its first release. its one of the features i really miss when playing on console.

To make matters worse, for those of us who do not like Steam and will not use it, it has just been announced that you HAVE to have Steam installed on your computer to run the game. This has caused several places, like Direct2Drive, to pull it from their shelves.
 
Wow it almost seems like they DONT want people to buy it for PC, it just keeps getting worse and worse lol. Luckily I dont give a shit ill be playin on xbox regardless, but still pretty lame lol.
 
I think they're tryin' to send PC gaming into a new phase. However, the changes they hope to progress the platform on are largely restricted. That would be like the U.S. changing from a Democratic to a Communistic country (no political jokes or spatting here folks, this is just simple example). PC gamers pride themselves with the freedom they are given over console gamers, if you take the control (keyboard and mouse) aspect out of it, and rightfully so. Where as dedicated players could maintain their servers and keep them clean and smooth, they now have the rely on IW to do it. I remember about a year after IW released MW they flat out stopped doing server cleaning and you could get some messy matches on the 360. If I remember correctly they even bluntly came out and said they were no longer supporting the game as they had other projects in the works. Considering that PC games tend to get more longevity, i.e. people still prefer classic Counter-Strike to Source, per title than consoles, this is dicey to say the least.

I don't plan to buy the game at all considering the party chat issue on 360 and the restrictions/demands of Steam on the PC version. I was feeling pretty bummed about it all, after the revelation of the 3rd person mode, then Dice announced the PS3 beta for BF:BC 2 would begin on the 19th so no worries now.

I only plan to get MW2 if I get it as a gift :P my brother seems to like to buy these kinda games for me for Christmas though. He bought me the first one and a few other military shooter games.
 
working the midnight release which is going to be crazy as hell, but after that i can't wait to have my MW2 system with 250GB. Anyways if anyone wants to play just add my tag X SonnyMoore X

Tip: TF2 is very fun 12 vs. 12 because the (good) maps aren't designed for 32 player instant respawn meat grinder games, which are utter shit and only serve to inflate egos rather than promote having a fun time. More players per match isn't always the best solution.

Sure, comparing Team Fortress to Call of Duty is like comparing Apples to Orange, but it's a valid point you can apply to any game that allows for a large amount of players per server. If it's true the PC version of MW allowed 32 vs. 32, I can't imagine how fucking retarded games were on the stock maps. Or even a lot of the community made maps, so many TF2 community maps are still designed around 12 vs. 12, sometimes less.

You guys forget that the PC versions is built specifically for PC gamers, with exclusive features like mouse control and in-game text chat.
 
just paid off my prestige edition and am waiting for my vacation to kick in so i can camp it out monday night!
also on the PC version stuff, i played a few matches on PC for awhile in MW1, cant exactly remember why, maybe it was to try that christmas version of crash, i dont know. But that shit was stupid.
It wasnt like on a console where you can run around a map and find people, where you spawned, is where you stayed. You could never get to the other side of a map, grenades were being lobbed EVERYWHERE, it was raining them damn things. Especially if they had the X3 grenades perk, that was like having 48 grenades just come flying at you.
You couldnt push forward at all, and dont get me started on the private hosted 50 Vs 50 matches i tried, that was like shovin your face in a running lawn mower.

Meat Grinder games are still retarded as fuck, feature differences aside. I won't even touch a Fast/Instant Respawn tagged TF2 server because of how terrible it is to play those kinds of matches, even if it's only 24 players.

Just because a game engine CAN support it, if the gametypes and maps aren't designed to, people shouldn't fucking do it.
