bad storylines and no servers is par for the course on consoles. of course they'd think its great.

PC gamers just dont like being lowered to their level, their standards were already this low.

I am only hearing negative things about MW2, sadly. Why take away our dedicated servers? Hopefully there will be a mod for it to restore dedicated servers.

Read the transcript from that BestBuy chat with the IW dogs:

http://undead.mygameclan.com/blog.htm?a=&nid=3ED19F70-E91F-444A-B950-590F9152AE76

Basically they avoided all the big issues, game is a shitty straight port, max players per game is 18 and the PC version will have neither lean nor a console, and as such, no record feature.

Mackey-IW
IWNet matches players together based on several factors including ping and skill. After players are matched, the most suitable host is determined. That player hosts until they quit, at which time hosting responsibilities will normally migrate to another player without interrupting the match.

xxTex
Will IW.net require players to pay for downloadable content, updates or just to play the game?

Vince-IW
no

No?

Mackey-IW
In response to the PC clan question: Private matches are a way for players to easily play with their friends and apply whatever House Rules they want. You can not kick players from Ranked matches. If language is a problem you can easily mute players.

Cool story bro. Can't kick troublemakers.

zach426
What was your guy's logic behind removing the lean feature for PC, a feature that was a mainstay from all of your previous call of duty titles?

Mackey-IW
The game is not balanced for lean.

They keep spewing PR bs about balance and then this? :shadedshu

Vince-IW
No plans for a demo currently. We are still working on finishing the PC game right now (yes, I know... we need to get done!)

Isn't that nice!

Anath · Nov 4, 2009

wow if you read that i would say about half of the questions are about dedicated server support. IW needs to get their shit together.

after reading that, this game is f*cked.

*tactical nukes (25 kill streak) ends the round/game - what happens when you want a server on a time basis? it just ends? lame.

*players have no choice over who hosts. oh, great.

*players cannot be kicked from ranked matches

*no hardcore FFA/deathmatch mode (personally, i ONLY play hardcore!)

there is more, but i am too depressed over this failure to continue.

A Cheese Danish · Nov 4, 2009

Wow. No lean. Also, they had to develop the IWNet to "improve the game".
9v9 to improve the game...don't think so. I like playing with a bunch of people.

maniac1969
Vince, there are 178,000 voices that say you need dedicated servers for the PC. COD4 is the bigest online game in history! Why in the world would you take away dedicated servers and change the whole MP experience for us? And Mackey, the PC version with dedicated servers is already the best experience the way it is!

Vince-IW
All I can say is that we changed it to make it a better and easier experience. Also, not all of the names on that list are legit.

Mackey-IW
402 signed it 4 times I heard.

:shadedshu

wait...no hardcore deathmatch....i am definitely not getting this game now...

Anath · Nov 4, 2009

can i say arrrggg?

Castiel · Nov 4, 2009

Honestly I was planning on getting this game. But now finding out all this info, I just don't want to get it. When I watch some gameplay, it looks like a free game from like ijji.

Can't wait for Bad Company 2!

You can. And if that is hinting at something, I don't think the game is even worth doing that...

shevanel · Nov 4, 2009

Buyig this game is as cool as the guy that dressed up as Hitler for halloween.

joinmeindeath417 · Nov 4, 2009

does Hitler with a pineapple up his ass count

shevanel · Nov 4, 2009

that's a different kind of Hitler isn't it?

ok, buying this game is as cool as buying ...ummm .. used underwear?

I don't know.

That's apparently pretty cool if you a Japanese man. http://www.snopes.com/risque/kinky/panties.asp

So i've heard...

Ok, used MENS underwear.

And WTF you doing with that link saved in your FAVS>>>>>>"!"!>

joinmeindeath417 · Nov 4, 2009

Now theres a winner...

Anyone wanna buy a pair 3 bucks?

shevanel · Nov 4, 2009

Do not offer items for sale in this area.. it is off topic. Please use the For sale and trade forum located HERE

don't forget pics

mastrdrver · Nov 4, 2009

It's like a bad dream. Just when you think it can't get worse, it does! :shadedshu

I'd rather use a sand blaster to wipe my you-know-what than get this game. At this point, I'm just waiting for them to tell us that the game is actually just a movie and you don't get to play at all just watch a bunch of ai play and enjoy the show. :nutkick:

Even 2D GTA and GTA2 will probably be more fun than this and I only ever played the demo!

So tempting...

shevanel · Nov 4, 2009

I'd rather step on my dick than pay $60 for this crap.

Afterburner · Nov 4, 2009

Just wanted to comment... I am very new here... But not other forums and gaming... My KDR on Ranked servers is above 4x1.... Blah blah blah (Slaps self in face)....

This is the most frustrated I have ever been in regards to a game. After all... it is just a game... I guess for me it is the fact that I suffered through the "Non" IW COD's and always loved the IW versions... And every year I build about 5 systems with gaming and benching in mind.

For IW to come out and do this..... I can only relate to it as if I was being forced to watch a thief steal my ride and bash it up, and have no way to stop it....

I have been building systems since 1987... This is the angriest I have been, ever, towards a silly game...

R.I.P. IW.....

Wasn't in my favs. I read the blog of someone that's currently living in Japan, and he mentioned it before. Google took care of the rest.

WTF!? What's the point then?! :slap:

Did their marketing department make this game? No offense to anyone, but I thought nVidia's marketing department was bad.
