pay attention to the comments you're getting you fucking morons!
We should be happy, at least it hasn't cartoonish-style models, M4-for-a-week-for-$$$ and starts from .exe file, instead of some browser's shitty plugin. But everything goes to it.
They make it sound like PC gamers are a bunch of idiots who can't tell their crosshair from their.....ammo count.
Preventing you from joining a game full of wallhackers....yeah right.
When's the last time anyone joined a game full of hackers?
In 5 years of FPS gaming, I've seen roughly 30 obvious hackers. Maybe less.
Oh well.
Guess I'll just be "acquiring" MW2 purely for singleplayer.

CoD6 costs $60 moar than BF Heroes, and yet BFH still gets dedicated servers. You know that, right?Mexanick wrote:

some great comments.
Some Console-tard commented with "How about th PC community man up and use a console?" and got 89 hate-filled replies.
Sure, but target groups for both games are very similar. Now.Doctor Strangelove wrote:

Yeah but the fact stands that a free game that is targeted only at casual gamers has dedicated servers where as the $60 game that wanted to be the definitive FPS of the year didn't have such a rudimentary feature says allot about both developers.Mexanick wrote:

Maybe they just wanted to break the norm. An incredibly risky break of the norm like, since change isn't always well recieved.Doctor Strangelove wrote:

But if I were getting this for my PC and to play online, I'd wait and see how it handles rather than just dismiss it off the mark.
So, either the guys at IW are really retarded or they got something up their sleeve.Hallvard wrote:

Either way, their marketing manager most likely hung himself. If not by now, he should get on with it. Managing to make DICE look good in comparison to IW is a fuck-up worth a title.
They're using VAC over punkbuster this time around. At least thats a plus right?
I'd rather have innocent kicks than hackers getting away with it for weeks, in some cases months on end.csmag wrote:

/horrorstories, I've no real experience with VAC.
VAC doesn't ban from demos but PB did with CoD4.
Either VAC needs to change their policies or that's another reason not to get MW2 on PC.

i checked the IW forums too. 1/2 of the reason of the retardedness is the end of dedicated server support. the other half is nothing more than "pc gamers and console gamers throwing feces/shit/dung/poop/ crap etc at each other."
i guess a $60.00 MW2 xbox game is only good for SP now. i kinda lost my appetite for MP either on Xbox360 or PC. someone please smack some sense into Robert Bowling's head. someone rip is head off and use it as a "bowling ball".

it's still the best game ever made though, right?specialistx2324 wrote:

Meh, fuck that. I guess that's why I've always gravitated to more realistic games like Red Orchestra and Project Reality, I could never get over the fact that people just never die in most online FPS games despite how many times you shot them. CoD series is fun, but hardcore mode just removes that frustration of someone getting shot but not going down. I've never liked that shit. I don't really care if someone thinks it's less skillfull, it's just much less annoying is all I care.DeathUnlimited wrote:

Not really. How is it more "skillfull" if it takes 10 shots to kill someone over 1-3 shots. I play Hardcore mode because I get frustrated by the fact that I usually get the drop on someone only for them to somenow not fucking die despite getting shot a hundred times. Things like lag and framerate come more into play when you have twitch games where you need a headshot to drop someone. Fuck that.
Playing regular mode isn't actually more challenging, you get the gaydar, all that clutter on the screen, it's annoying.
You notice people play more carefully when they realise there's no gaydar and they can die easily. If you're playing TDM it's just mindless fun whether it's hardcore or not.
I like strong guns. It's the whole fucking point of the game, the guns are the focal point, if they suck what's the whole point.

Who cares if we lose the ability to use community made mods. They make shit maps anyway.
Just look at the awesome dev support for cod4. We got Creek. And a Christmas map.
Oh, wait.

Looks that way...and I'm sure both the retail and Steam versions will cost the same...DefCon-17 wrote:

FFFFFFFUUUUU
They'd better get their shit into gear pronto and release a fuckin' patch that gives us the option of either having that IWNET or whatever shit or the classical style of browsing. Although in some perspective it may actually be okay, its just that if you join some 13 year olds local connetion with normal internet and shitty bandwith, the game will suck. Rinse and repeat about 5 times until you join a good server. This is the fustration my friends have with the ecksbawks 360, and as a superior medium of which we play games through, we shouldnt be succeptible to this bs.
Bloody consolefags ruining our ways.
Bloody 13 year olds.
Bloody hell.
