Why you shouldnt buy MW2?
- IW and Activision have no respect for gamers. They have also exhibit lots of arrogance in the media. Lots of broken promise. Even console gamers are ignored on the request to reset the leader board and levels due to the early leak for consoles. Not only the PC gamers are ignored. This shows that Activision doesnt care about how good is the game actually,they just want your money and thats it.Then,they gonna pump out more sequels each year to get your money. Just like NFS series 1-2 years back, Shift have improved,though.

NOTE 1: Thread deleted by IW in IW forums.
NOTE 2: IW seems like deleting any threads that might affect their reputations,like no lean threads,dedicated server threads etc.
- IW's arrogance.PC gamers who ask about anything about IWNet are mostly ignored.If not,mostly short and ambiguous answers are given to PC gamers.

- Bobby Kotick.Why is he here? This guy is pretty much the root of all these problems. He wants money,not making good innovative games.Franchise that could have annual sequels is the interest him the most.

- MW2 is an overpriced game.RM220 at TSBTSB. 60USD on Steam,or worse 90USD on Steam Australia.This just further showed that Kotick is greedy for money.
Thats the price to pay for a 5 hour single player campaign game,with a mediocre multiplayer.Length of Spec Ops is unknown.

- IWNet and Host Migration turn off.

NOTE: I'll add more on this when there is more information.Most Aussies should have been getting the game now.

- MW2 have no modding and no custom maps at all.This means that you are stuck with the same content on day 1,until you decided to buy some maps from Activision.

- No dedicated servers.This means that gaming experience on MW2 will be more laggy compared to the dedicated server system used in CS,TF2,Battlefield etc.Also,the host will have an advantage over other players as the Host will have almost zero ping,while others are having 100+ ping.That means death of competitive gaming,as the host have an advantage over others.

IW's reasoning for no dedicated servers.

- No lean in MW2,because "it's not balanced for lean". Lean is a feature in CoD since CoD1.

- No console access.

- Wait for Battlefield Bad Company 2


Why wait for BFBC2?
1. It's all what MW2 should offer: Modern warfare with modern weapons, perks that is similar to MW1's Perks, customisable weapon load out and dedicated servers. Also,it also offers more than what MW2 offers, vehicles like tanks,hummers,A10,chopters and fully destructable environment.
2. Dedicated servers are confirm.Even consoles are getting it. Source
3. No overpriced CE.Standard edition seems to be same price as typical PC game(50USD).Probably cheaper because of EA SG.
4. PC Beta in December confirmed.Along with demo in early 2010. This shows DICE is committed to make BFBC2 a strong multiplayer game and IW completely ignored this aspect. CoD4 did have a beta,but MW2 have no beta at all.
5. PC version of BFBC2 will be a true PC game.DICE developers promised this. Source will be cited soon.

NOTE: There is a chance that BFBC2 will be screwed up some way by EA.The chances are low,though,as DICE seems very committed to make BFBC2 a good game.Battlefield 3 rumored to followed after a or 2 year BFBC2 released.

2. You can't play SP yet.

More stuff:

Apprarently MW2's TDm only supports 12 players.That is 6v6.



9v9 is only for Ground War.Welcome aboard to Fail Boat.

Just show that this game is not for those who want to play MP.

IINM from COD MW1 on PS3 I played before, Private match is a LAN match.

coz last year i entered the cyberjaya COD4 ps3 tourney, matches were hosted under private match..

but the downside of private match is that u only get to use default classes, no weapons mod nor access to higher perks, all stock! shucks man!
