That's retarded. It's really lame when people make a little effort to go against the flow and then just fall in line with the sheep. :shadedshu

 

[boise49ers]

Oh yeah! 10$ per hour! Awesome!

I think he may get a little more then 5 hrs play time out of it.

COD:MW2 Breaks All entertainment records

http://www.pcworld.com/article/182013/modern_warfare_2_pulls_310m_day_one_in_us_and_uk.html

MW2 has apparently been the highest selling entertainment launch in the history of man, and the figures are not all back, these figures are only from UK and US.

 

[Jstn7477]

Wow, I go from hearing everyone argue about the multiplayer (no dedicated servers, 9v9) to this. I must be losing my mind.

Is this some sort of joke? If this is the theme, you should go ahead and merge all of the 4870 threads together.

I'm not saying lets make 40 MW2 threads, but being the fastest selling entertainment item in all of mankind is sort of a big deal. w/e.

Hearing about this all over the webs, very surprised it managed to surpass some of the best movies and albums made in sales.

Awesome campaign! Money and 6 hrs well spent. Not really that interested in MP though, I'm a SP/story person.

no challenge playing AI like there is against someone else behind the screen.

Nope, this is the MW2 discussion thread. That thread on it's own would of garnered what for responses? A. Go IW! or B. IW sucks. Just like this thread.

This makes me sick.

The SP is good indeed. I didn't expect those part is "that" extreme, was disturbing for me.
I went through that mission with zero excitement, and entertainment, kinda killed the mood.

Spoiler

They sent a private from the front line to a deep undercover mission, I don't think even the most well-trained soldier can handle those kind of undercover operation (become a terrorist, lol...), and then got killed in the end. That is not really convincing, the story I mean.

I don't think he was a private it said he was a PCR or something like that but I do think he is called a private in the game

 

[laszlo]

good game well optimized but short... i finished the SP in 5 hour... i expected more playtime from a 11 gb game..

not the first thread of its type, but ill take your word for it. It is pretty amazing, but then again if you notice a trend, more and more money is spent on entertainment items, exponentially even.

Well I have apparently logged about 17hrs so far and plan on putting alot more into it.

I finally got around to doing some Spec-Ops with a mate this evening and MAN! was that ever a hoot!! I know there is a bit of controversy around the "Death from Above" level but WOW that was a TOTAL trip!!
There is a VERY cool redo of "All Ghillied Up" as well.

Those were my 2 fave missions from MW1 and with the added twists to them and the fact you can Co-op them was just SO Sweet.

I can't wait to unlock more of them

Between what I think is a great story and continuation of the MW1 plot and the very fun Spec-Ops I am totally satisfied with my purchase.

OH and BTW I paid 449 Norwegian Kroners for it so I don't wanna here anyone bitching about the price that's $80 US.

 

[DrPepper]

Private Allen.

Yeah but when you join the CIA it changes to something else.

Sweet ! I am minutes away from getting mine unless UPS has to deliver 10000 more on his route in Boise Idaho today. I got mine for $54 with S/H thru newegg. Now they have it $2 cheaper. Are you an American in Norway or Norwegian ? Man what history of War that country has.

Actually I am a Canadian. Yes they do and I live on the southern coast and I have bits of the the Atlantic Wall all over the place. It is terribly fascinating to me being from NA and seeing the remnants of the occupation. I can just go down to the beach right here in my town and see bunkers, go a bit east and see lines of dragon teeth along the shoreline. It is pretty cool.

Err no,

when he got killed, Private Allen: KIA, they said...

Activision's says Modern Warfare 2 raked in an astonishing $310m

Yeah because Activision would never lie. Lets wait for some other sources before we swallow this load and beg for more.

Seriously Mailman I backed off my cheer leading, but until you play it and try to be objective
why can't you lighten up. The threads are everywhere in complete support of the game. For your own legitimacy wait and see. You have been a great source of positive help for a ton of us and this isn't doing you any justice when you haven't even tried it. Peace brother !

All I said is don't believe the hype about Activisions BIG claim. I want to hear other sources because right now its just a publisher saying they have the best product ever made without any proof. Also I refuse to play that crap. I still have what some of you may have forgotten. Integrity.

It seems that Infinity Ward do indeed take into account the option to make use of dedicated servers. A curious gamer has all the files because of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 also gone through, and there was something surprising from it.

Between all files is because a "normal" config-file, as is also present in Call of Duty 4, although the PC version not "console" contains. Open this file, you will see the following:

server settings (note the sv_) server settings (note the sv_)

seta sv_allowDownload "1"
seta sv_floodProtect "1"
seta sv_hostname "CoD4Host"
seta sv_maxclients "8"
seta sv_maxPing "0"
seta sv_maxRate "25000"
seta sv_minPing "0"
seta sv_reconnectlimit "3"

Filter Settings:

seta ui_browserFriendlyfire "-1"
seta ui_browserKillcam "-1"
seta ui_browserMod "0"
seta ui_browserShowDedicated "0"
seta ui_browserShowEmpty "1"
seta ui_browserShowFull "1"
seta ui_browserShowPassword "-1"
Do you want a look? The "config_mp.cfg" file can be found in "\ Steam \ steamapps \ common \ call of duty modern warfare 2 \ players"

Does this mean that Infinity Ward Be it short long run will provide support for dedicated servers? We have to wait and see.

Well a friend let me play the game at his house. I was looking forward to play the SP.

Played 5 min of it and got bored, wasn't compelled to play it anymore. I'm sure it gets interesting, but I felt like I was play a COD 4 Expansion Pack and not MW 2.

Played online and got red bar the first time.

Guess we wait for MW 3 to see if they do things right again. If they even go that far, probably will.
