- BadBoyFTW, on 11/15/2009, -55/+519I'd love to jump up and down and go "YEAH ***** YOU INFINITY WARD! WE WIN!" but this feels like a hollow victory.
I'd rather just boycott this completey and head on to Bad Company 2.
Leave MW2 to rot in it's own filth and hopfully be forgotten as a mistake in the past. - AmnesiacJack, on 11/15/2009, -15/+394Did any one really think Activision would spend the money to remove code from the CoD4 engine? That would have taken from the bottom line, their profit margin.
They just made a new GUI, tossed in some new models and maps, turned off a bunch of features, and then slapped an extra $10 onto the price.
Why?
Because people will still pay for it and then say, "Thank you sir, may I have another?" - givemesnow, on 11/15/2009, -25/+325Hey Infinity Ward,
I'll be playing Bad Company 2 this holiday season.
Sincerely,
***** you - doshindude, on 11/15/2009, -10/+263I'll be waiting for the cracked "Modern Warfare 2: Dedicated Server Edition" from the pirates then :D
- AndrewDB, on 11/15/2009, -3/+186Can we crack it to allow more than 18 people per server now? :(
- jordanv1, on 11/15/2009, -2/+120So basically, I can pay 10 dollars more than any other PC game to hack in basic functionality that any other FPS game offers?
I mean props to the group that did this, but it doesn't make me eager to buy the game. - Caergrim, on 11/15/2009, -4/+104No ***** leaning....what the *****...
I am still in shock over its removal. - getoffmybridge, on 11/15/2009, -0/+99That's why Battlefield 2 rules :D
- cawfee, on 11/15/2009, -1/+89Just watch as they magically conjure up time and resources to "fix this exploit to preserve balance", yet somehow aren't able to effectively control any of the rampant cheats and hacks.
- dsmx, on 11/15/2009, -4/+86Why is making the game have dedicated servers like it should ***** it up for everybody?
- Praystation, on 11/15/2009, -4/+82To be fair the graphics are already good enough. I would play a game with an amazing, long and satisfying Singleplayer story rather than a graphical and technical showcase with a rubbish storyline and gameplay which my pc won't run properly on. Think of Crysis.
- Iamien, on 11/15/2009, -0/+64To put is simply. PC gamers enjoy being able to modify the game, play in games with more than 18 players(Max 64), and having places where a large group of friends can always go to play with each-other as well as people they don't know.
They also can own and manage these places(servers) and are able to ban cheaters or ***** from playing there.
Also the advantage of a dedicated server is that the machine hosting the game, is not a player. This way there is not one person who is playing with 0 ping. 0 Ping means you are immediately notified when a player moves, shoots, or dies when the server does. Meanwhile all the other players have about a tenth of a second or longer delay, giving the host an advantage. - crazyhorse13, on 11/15/2009, -6/+68How does this in any way affect console gamers?
- twiztidsinz, on 11/15/2009, -2/+64Why are game devs so set up on ***** games up for PC users?
- rave152, on 11/15/2009, -14/+75IW sucks
- bardamuclichy, on 11/15/2009, -1/+62I live in my parent's attic you insensitive clod!
- darkzealot89, on 11/15/2009, -1/+62Strike AT KARKAND, Infantry Mode, Largest Map, 32v32
BRING IT
/Can't Wait for BF3 - givemesnow, on 11/15/2009, -6/+64Shut the ***** up
- givemesnow, on 11/15/2009, -5/+62F*ck yeah! Bad Compny 2 FTW
- InfernoX, on 11/15/2009, -0/+55It's a console port through and through: There are even pop up messages that refer to xbox live in the PC version.
- fatmanjim, on 11/15/2009, -6/+60your name is ***** you?
jkjk - Jaizu, on 11/15/2009, -2/+53your name is jkjk?
lolol - zaferk, on 11/15/2009, -10/+59Another illiterate console tard. Carry on people.
- SummerofGeorge, on 11/15/2009, -7/+56the engine has not been updated, go back to your xbox
- heretrix, on 11/15/2009, -3/+51I agree, ***** MW2 and I'm really getting tired of hearing about it.Cracking the game isn't any victory because you are still playing the ***** thing. Let it die.
- MAGZine, on 11/16/2009, -2/+49http://thepiratebay.org
- CrazyChair, on 11/16/2009, -1/+42PC gamers are just trying to get the best out of the game. Why are console gamers so content with mediocrity?
- milkmage, on 11/15/2009, -1/+41you guys need to excuse LowHz.. he's just stupid. it can't be helped.
- efitz11, on 11/15/2009, -0/+36gotta love the explanation in lamien's terms
- c0ncept, on 11/15/2009, -3/+39lol at console children.
- disappointed, on 11/16/2009, -4/+39If you really want game companies to take you seriously, wait for a game that has the features you want and buy that instead.
I don't understand this obsession with making MW2 into the game you wanted it to be. From what I've read, it's not a huge improvement on MW1 in any respect anyway.
They said it would be the best game ever. It isn't. Move on. - InfernoX, on 11/15/2009, -2/+37If you're looking for a "long and satisfying singleplayer story" perhaps playing the call of duty franchise known for 5-6 hour campaigns isn't the best idea.
- BluZebra, on 11/16/2009, -1/+34DICE has openly stated that they have their own development team dedicated to the PC version only. And that the PC version WILL have more features than console versions, as well as all the things IW ***** up, like dedicated servers, and modding tools.
It's pretty much shaping up to be the game that MW2 was supposed to be. - Iamien, on 11/15/2009, -3/+36Your LOLing at us because we are able to manipulate the game to be how we want them? Why?
- Yarkz, on 11/15/2009, -0/+31Removing features increases engine number, duh.
- heretrix, on 11/15/2009, -5/+35So? Just because people buy 50 cent's records doesn't mean I have to listen to him.The same goes for this *****.
- DarQraven, on 11/15/2009, -4/+33You're doing yourself a disservice. If a fullpage ad is all your need for a reason to not play this game, I can't imagine what games you actually *do* play.
- OKeric, on 11/15/2009, -2/+30People in other countries.
- lowjeep, on 11/15/2009, -1/+29For free no less thanks to the BFBC2 ps3 and PC betas.
- silent128, on 11/15/2009, -1/+29You forgot to mention that they charged $10 bucks more for the PC version for no reason. The reason why console games sell for $60 is that they have to pay a licensing fee to the console developer something that does not exist for PC. Instead of charging $50 which is what they should have they basically told PC gamers not only are we going to f**k you with a port game and graphics from 2005 we are going to charge you $10 to really stick the knfie in.
- dillonflynn, on 11/15/2009, -5/+32Digg needs to have its own dedicated Modern Warfare 2 server, from the amount of stories that show up here about it.
- ThaDRD, on 11/16/2009, -0/+26That reminds me of the Chappelle Show sketch for Popcopy:
"A lot of people ask, why? Why treat the customer this way? Why? Cause ***** 'em, that's why!" - Super6, on 11/15/2009, -3/+29MW2 is not balanced for awesome, they'll make a patch to block this
- Praystation, on 11/16/2009, -1/+27It's pretty intense for 5-6 hours.
inb4 that's what she said. - lowjeep, on 11/15/2009, -3/+29Oh really???? Have you played it yet gnarls??? Didn't think so!!! I've been Beta testing MAG since Aug 17th and lag is non-existent. Nada.... Zip.... Zilch.... They've come up with a completely new server system to prevent anything of the sort. BTW these are DEDICATED servers unlike MW2. If anyone should have fun with a lagfest you can enjoy yourself having to play on personal users servers. Time to find a new comeback from the fanboys. Have fun with your miniscule multiplayer and weak ass non-destructible environments.
- StenL, on 11/15/2009, -2/+27ATM it actually can't run MP games, but Co-Op does work, and MP is supposed to follow in a few days.
- Caergrim, on 11/15/2009, -1/+24I am really trying to enjoy the game, but so far, it does not live up to MW1. The battles are far too chaotic with enemies constantly popping in from any direction. It makes it impossible to approach anything tactically. And being unable to lean out of cover means you take fifty thousand bullets, which makes me enjoy the game less.
- OKylan, on 11/16/2009, -7/+30The thing that pissed me off the most is not being able to use an x360 controller on the pc version.. it really does feel like a half-assed port.
- kelvinbanner, on 11/16/2009, -0/+21This game is still going to sell more copies than a Tina Fey/Megan Fox sextape.
- CasualT, on 11/16/2009, -1/+22@mixomatosys
It's not the execution that matters. It's the fact that IW took away elements of the PC version, which caused an outrage amongst many hardcore PC gamers. That outrage is saying something. MW2 could have the best matchmaking system, best gameplay, or even be the best game that was ever created and we would still boycott it. We're just trying to prove a point. -
