My understanding of the server infrastructure for MW2 is that they are dedicated servers but they are controlled by Activision / IFW, not the users. If it is in fact solely P2P ( something I *might* overlook on a console ) on pc then I will buy a copy, and make a youtube video of it being opened up on by automatic weapon fire....
Chickenfeed i am going on 24th to Red Deer, if you need help filming this shooting ill be more than glad to assist you and share the price of this copy with you :)
What I basically got from that article is that IW doesn't give half a sh|t. I mean, they really don't.
This game really sucks as the days go by.
Guys lets buy L4D 2, now that's a fun game 11/17/2009.
Actually I just tried the demo. I oddly wasn't that enthused. :shrug:Quote:

However,I do know that even not being that enthused with L4D2, I'll buy a copy at some point. It IS fun, just not worth the money(to me) they're asking, yet. Lol.
yeah the demo sucks bad.. its l4d1 all over again as far as the demo is concerned :(Quote:

If someone has too much freetime:
Buy MW2 and sue the hell out of IW for false advertising as they don't have p2p friendly isp in minimum specs.:p:
as for L4D2, the demo is not really great, but good enough to get it on a weekend deal if they ever do one.
They will do a weekend deal, they always do. However I sure you will be able to get it on sale of black friday.Quote:

So the game is practically impossible to play in the pro community,no demo function,big ping,no lean and from what I saw on youtube the guns cover a lot of the view.
I am really curious to see when Promod and Pam appear for this game and how big are the changes.
No mod support?Quote:

IW Q/A Flowchart! :D
16 player MP, hahahaha what the F*** is wrong with IW, its like they are intentionally trying to F*** the PC users here. I dont understand this. I wont be buying this game, thats for sure. Ill stick to COD4/5 for now, BF2 still keeps me busy. I really hope sales flop big time, something like UT3 so they releases a new patch to fix everything. But by then, just like it was for Unreal Tournament 3, it would be too late.
i think its 18 players max, but yeah that blows big time, i did enjoy playing wet work with like 44 or 50 players, kinda like cs_office in CSS
lol @ the "it has custom stuff like mouse control, in game text and grapahic settings ." that is total bull, not even a developer console, i bet ini tweak is not gonna do much like borderlands (where modifying ini has very little effect on the game, some but not much)
Only thing am looking forward in MW2 is playing the Single player when I download it. :)
No lean? Only 18 players? Five seconds delay when the host leaves? No console? No timedemos? That's it for me then. Going to cancel my preorder right now.
Thank you IW. I own and enjoyed each and every of your Call of Duty games but now I'm just sick and tired of you pushing us in the dirt. I bought Call of Duty 1 as soon as it was released, I waited eagerly for months until it finally came out and now this. Biggest let-down I remember.
Hopefully you won't sell a single copy for PC. Hope you are smart enough to not blame it on the pirates again and the next CoD-title will have dedicated servers again (*crosses his fingers*).
i think the 18 player max is so funny.
a crappy 18 player cap just like pretty much every game on the 360.
They designed the game for the console and seeing the console has a 18 player cap due to p2p they made maps for 18 players and copied it for the PC.
That and ofc them wanting complete control for their DLC crap.
I hope MAG (upcoming PS3 game) becomes a hit. Because it has a player cap of 256 and if the game is good then MS has to react and remove the player cap and other companys have to act aswel and remove player caps and make approriate maps.
Because you damn wel know that if IW gets away with this crap then other companys will copy it and will also give us cheap consoel copies with low player caps.
It appears my favorite game franchise is now dead. I bought and played every iteration of this game and loved it, but this is clearly going to be a problem.
So what is going to step up and fill the void?
Good question. I've never been a huge fan of the battlefield-series and I don't see any other game that is on par with MW (gameplay wise).Quote:
