Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Teaser

[Rick_D]

A quick check with TF2, there are several servers with +12 people playing that run at less than 50 ms..

my tf2 filters are "europe, <50, vac, not full, not empty, no password" - and i have hundreds of servers to choose from. literally 200 - 300 servers. and i don't have to wait to join a game. and i can choose what map i want to play. and i can choose if i want a 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 28, 30 or 32 man server. and i can get between 5 and 30 ping. and i know there's an admin on 50% of those servers to remove disruptive players.

pc version of mw2, it would like you to connect to xbox live:

I think its inexcusable when the pc version of a game says stuff like that. I remember one that still had the Xbox buttons for the tutorials.

that's pretty much most games now. the SAW game on pc does that for everything. shit like "use the analogue stick to walk forward". that is understandable when you have a team of 30 guys making in a game in 9 months but it's another matter when $60 mil has been spent. just makes the pc gamer feel more marginalized; and no, we as a community don't deserve it. if we were all such terrible thieving cunts then CoD1 would have been pirated into non-existance. it's also quite peculiar to see the snub pc gamers have gotten considering most of these titles started out on the pc, gained momentum and popularity through the pc, and then devs/publishers just do a full u-turn and throw us the leftovers.

Oh man that was brilliant

lol. I called it with L4D2 and this is absolutely no different. That's hilarious.

To people these days... Boycott doesn't mean "Let's not use the service/product and get a lot of people to do it", it just means "Group of really angry people".

Currently the most played game on Steam atm. (YES OVER CS AND CSS), it should IMO be impossible to ignore PC gamers and their wishes. But what do I know, I cannot find any stats for XBL and MW2.

I guess this is a stat for XBL and MW2

Just finished the game. Loved every second of it.

I read over your post Rick, thanks for clearing up most of the plot. There is one thing I did not get in the plot.

I never could understand the point of the Rio stuff. Wasn't Soap in russia, was this mission in the past. I think I missed something?

I only watched the videos, but as far as I could tell the Rio stuff was

because one of the shells shot in the Airport mission was traced to a weapon smuggler in Rio, and they were going after that guy to get more info on Zakarov. The info they ended up getting was that a prisoner in some Russian gulag was a guy Makarov wanted, so they go to release that guy, wanting to use him as bait to lure out Zakarov. That guy turned out to be Price.

Wow, Deja Vu. Could've sworn I had seen that elsewhere.

Finished the SP campaign...total time about 5.5 hours it said but it felt longer I thought. I sure died a lot. I just played it on regular cause I'm simply too old to deal with the frenzy of Veteran or Hardened.

Anyway, I finally started playing MP tonight (on PSN) and while a lot like past CoD games i still enjoyed it and really had no lag or technical problems. That said I have a fast cable connection and live in a big city (ironically about 3 miles from IW). Despite starting at lvl 1 tonight, all the lvl 20s, 30s and up players were actually nice and not talking crap on me, even when I lost the lead for a few times in close matches. Got to lvl 4 after a little while and concluded that it's still fun and overall worth the money since my cousin and I will probably play the co-op Spec-Ops stuff.

Bottom line, a good purchase and up there with Uncharted 2 as GOTY candidate for me.

PS... Composite I saw your sig on at least one level (Karachi (?) or something?) Felt like a composite level!

What the reason for not allowing you to customize your class while in game?

You still can't customize your class in-game? Damn... I'm sure there's a reason behind it, but still...
