It's sad to see a game that could have been great become in 2 months just a plain and simple game. To me, simply this is a fail. They had the material, they had the manpower, they had the tools and the money, sad that some people aren't fit enough to capitalize on all this raw power just because of bad decision making. When I heard the interviews, I swear a could hear a voice in the back saying : " Oh my god.....we created monsters (Mackey McCandlish, Ryan Lastimosa and Vince Zampella )!".
Alright so everyone just stopped arguing on how bad MW2 screwed us ? For me, it's not a complicated choice to make ... bad company 2 seems to please me more, so i'll buy that. It was between the 2 anyway and I guess one just had more of what I wanted than the other. In the end it's just a matter of personnal taste or how bad you want to get ripped by Activision ^_^.... nah I'm kidding about the last part there, you can do whatever you want sweetheart
Console kiddie?
I'm fairly sure the majority of all console players are older than PC players.
Disagreed. >.> The majority of mates I play with are in their late twenties, and I know more than a few old guys. Dawds is that great of a game.
Here's another kicker for the game. x.X

Game Anyone? has put up an [url=http://www.gameanyone.com/game/X360/3803.html]HD video walkthrough[/url'] of MW2's single player. It clocks in at just over 4 hours, 7 minutes.

Nice. If I want a 4-hour single player experience, I'll just play Portal. It's cheaper, too.
I mean, I can kind of see where they're coming from with the whole story-driven thing, but eh... I'll be too busy playing Left 4 Dead 2 to care.

Yes, but I doubt you play with every single person on the internet, for every person who's over twenty, there's a hundred that's below.
Again, the same can be said for console users.
Personally, I think that most console gamers are younger than the PC crowd. Consoles are generally cheaper and more available for those who aren't able to afford and/or maintain a gaming PC; a console game is developed with that console's limitations in mind, whereas PC game requirements can vary quite a bit.
I don't know... I tend to play with people my age and older anyway, so I'm probably just not seeing the younger crowd.
Lmao i can tell you right now my MW2 does not lag it only lags when the Host Dc's or Leaves a game. And trust me out of the 100's of games ive played i only dced 0 times thats right as soon as one host leaves it picks a new host th best host and you continue the game right where it stopped. I lvoe it although takes a hella long time to get to 70 im still only at 28. but it's all good. They have some sick maps. I do hate the idea of onlye 6v6 for normal games because some of these maps are so damn big its hard. Like estate, and wateland. There are others that they seriouslly needed to work on a bit better such as scrapyard and rust. Rust is the new shipment small but one you control the gigantic three story tower in the center its almost auto win cause you can look down on everything. Scrapyard is just too ope for a map a bunch of dropped planes in the middle and warehouses lining the sides. Not to good i always doo bad ont hat map maybe its just me idk but imo its not that good. Trust me all of you who say oh its going to suck, your wrong. If you liked Cod4MW1 then you will love this game its absolutely better. They even pay ribute through spec ops mission, the campaign mission ghillies in the midst is modified and you gett a better sniper but its the same mission in the same place. Another you have to run through downpour whil your friend is in an ac130 providing cover fire. The bunch of killstreak reqards is awsome. Stealth bombs EMP's precision airstrike heli's harrier's i mean they got alot covered. If you had the game liek i do you'd see why i'm praising it. NOTE I HAVEN'T PLAYED CAMPAIGN, BUT FROM WHAT MY BRO SAYS ITS BETTER THAN COD4 BUT SITLL DOESNT BEAT MGS4. so on that note ill end this lengthy story about MW2
EDIT: if you didn't know, the new max lvl is 70 thn you can prestige. the ak47 is unlocked at lvl 70 and then at 40 is the m16 and the m4 is your second assault rifle the first and yes the worst in the game is the famas. The standard assault class comes with it, good for lvl 1-4 but once you get to 4 create a class and use stopping power sleight of hand and steady aim on the M4A1 it is so much better.

Exactly. Most of the people playing around with computers when they were kids in the late seventies to the eighties are grown up now, and that accounts for A LOT of gamers, programmers, etc. If you grew up in the past few years with a computer, though, the age of gamers would seem younger to you.
While it's true to say I've not played with every single person on the internet, I still feel I've had enough experience to state my opinion. The notion that you've not met/talked/gamed with every single person on the internet is a gross statement that could be applied to literally everything. For the two months that I spent in WoW I never played with every single sub, but that was still enough to make me cancel.

The game has been leaked for the pc and is download-able as a torrent already... How lame.
The most preordered game in history was sure to have the most cancelled preorders for the PC and most pirates. etc.
The last interview I saw they said they weren't even finished with the PC port. Hmmm...

I can't believe how unfair they were to those people! Ripping their stuff and selling it...saying they made it! ?_? They can't get lower imo! A bunch of crooks is what they are!
Well, its lame because i expect better stuff from IW... But nope. Everybody is complaining about this game... It has 3rd person view (which is good but its supposed to be an fps) and now its also leaked to the pc a week before its released... I mean... if thats not lame then what is.
So you'd rather not have anything like that?
There won't be any mods, so why wouldn't they add something that's proven fun and useful?
If mods aren't allowed in MW2 it's not my fault and it's not your fault, it's Infinite Ward's fault. They are being arrogant, self-centered and in way over their head. Mods are a must for any games out there, they give a fresh new look to a somewhat old game. It's a mod on battlefield 1943 that gave birth to battlefield 2 (which was a big success). If you took a look at liquid's text, you would know that IW made a map making contest and ripped the people off by stealing their entries and giving nothing in return. The maps were then slightly modified and included in MW2 without credits to any of it's original creators... in my book we call this a cheap shot.
Ho, ya an liquid I watched the Torchlight review but I just don't get your point... is it cause it looks sooo much like d3?
Yea i agree with you Psyxix.... Mods are not really a must but are a plus... a big plus.
Indeed. I don't NEED mods, hell, I hardly ever play a modded version of a game (whether it be Valve games, etc.) but it goes hand in hand with the dedicated servers. Communities and clans won't die out necessarily but the game's life span won't be as long; it'll stagnate and die faster without the support of some of the amazingly creative people wanting to do things for it. Games like Counter-Strike and DoD:S have only been around as long as they have because of the dedicated community. If the Source engine had been unmoddable and there were no dedicated servers... *shivers*
As for the taking of mods and maps from the community without a thumbs-up or acknowledgment, bah. It's pathetic.

I agree about the mods not being a must, but I have to say that they bring a lot in terms of ideas for future titles. When I mean ideas, I mean good ideas, not the crap they've been spewing out of the mouths for the last 3 months now =/
Here's another kicker for the game. x.X
