It has been announced by Activision that Infinity Ward will once again be the developer of the latest CoD title due to release next fall. So, what do you expect to see in this installment? As for me, I hope that they could up the multiplayer level cap to 65 just like in WaW and bring in more variety of weapons.

New perks perhaps?

:S we all know that leaked info is fake~ Kekeke~

It is fake?

Confirm fake lol. There's a thread about it in IW forums. Everyone had a good laugh at it...

if there's cut off enemy's head perk it would be cool.

The 2nd perk in the picture Luftwacko posted looks like Boots of Travel followed by SnY.

lol some dotard trying to con us, fail

gonna save up for october. LOL...

Those perk really appeared in the teaser.

http://modernwarfare2.infinityward.com/

Check out 1:11 of the video.

The first perk without doubt is stopping power
second perk is Boots of Travel
third perk is Sange and Yasha
fourth perk is Portal (Steam)
fifth perk is sign of (please make a u turn)

lol interesting i wonder what are those....i hope they upgrade the graphics..its getting old lol

You have to be kidding. CoD4 remains one of the most graphically impressive* games to date, which is amazing for a Dec 2007 release.

*Doesn't apply if your metric is Promod with shadows/r_drawdecal/camera bob/etc off for 'competitive play', in which case comparisons don't count in the least.

i am not saying the graphics are bad but theres many games out there that already surpass cod4 graphics and since most of todays mid range graphic card can already support cod4 graphics smoothly at the highest detail level...i think they would bump up the graphics a little bit at least or a new graphic engine altogether

This post has been edited by Pro-MX: Mar 27 2009, 04:29 PM

So you want another game like Crysis where no one can play it on max settings?

well i never said i want it to be like Crysis...besides Crysis isnt even that good and u dun even get the point as i said most mid-range card now can handle cod4 at the highest settings...it would not hurt to bump the graphics up a little

Well chums heres some info I got from other forums

Apparently Infinity Ward is pissed at Treyarch and its CoD 5 : WaW for ripping most of the major gameplay elements. And they hate Activision for being a b**** about " Every year needs a new CoD franchise ". So they fought hard to divert themself from the franchise itself thus with the game of its own itself

The said scoop
http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthrea...40&pagenumber=3

With activision confirming it
http://www.joystiq.com/2009/03/26/activisi...ife-of-its-own/

So pretty much this game won't be in this sub-forum ...
...
...
not

thats actually a good news....hope they update the game more often after it is released like how valve did for their games

This post has been edited by Pro-MX: Mar 28 2009, 02:57 AM

You do realize that if you bump the graphics up, alot of CC's won't be able to play it?

It's gonna be hard to promote a competitive scene for a game like that.

Even with it's current settings now, only a few CC's have computers that can play the game at a constant 125 FPS and that isn't even at high settings mind you.


Anyway good to hear Infinity Ward is now independent. We can look forward to better management of the game.

thats the problem when malaysia cc all have low-end hardwares that only cater dotards which doest even have a mid-range graphic card but u got a point there though

thats y cs still rulez!!

no worries online multiplayer

^ Woohoo! Teddy bears will be back in MW2.

They sell you the same old engine in COD4 and 5 to you.

Who cares, people care about gameplay and competitiveness.

i hope its longer and more intense than cod4 single player mission.....nothing much about graphics have been announced by infinity ward so we wont know....the trailer is interesting....lol teddies...its probably some kind of flashback i guess

perks? what the hell do perks have to do with cod MW 2?

in cod4, there isn't anything about perks wo ??!?

theres perks in cod4 multiplayer...do u even play the game?

CoD4's engine is a heavily rewritten/customized CoD engine, which is in turn a proprietary license of ID Tech 3 (Q3A) which John Carmack based off the design of the Q2 and Q1 engines.

OH NO GUISE WE ARE STUCK IN 1995 CALL THE INTERNET AMBULANCE!@#

Having to choose between an intense shooter with a short cohesive plot vs a long, drawn out OMFG WE GOT EVEN MORE SOLDIERS INCOMING, I'd choose the former. That's CoD4 vs CoD:WaW. After playing WaW twice I can't even name half the missions in order.

IW has always known what they're doing in terms of delivering a solid game (well, maybe not a competitive e-sports one out of the box...) and the fact that they're willing to part ways with their original baby just to move forward says loads. I can't wait for this release.

This post has been edited by Falk: Mar 29 2009, 09:35 PM

Anyway it's not in Call of Duty series anymore, now it's independent Modern Warfare series...

Haih another dilemma.

In that sense, they sell you the same old engine of CoD1 to you, enhance the graphics (still the same engine), sell it to you as CoD2, enhance, Sell as CoD4, enhance, CoD5, etc.

OMG, we've been scammed.... not.

http://denkirson.proboards.com/index.cgi?b...play&thread=161



What can we expect from MW2? Most prolly the enhanced version of CoD4 or 5's engine. I doubt IW would waste time and resources on creating a new engine from the ground up.

Don't know lor, because does Activision let them use the engine that used for CoD series and Quake series? Not sure about it, and never care, just care about the gameplay, hell yeah!!

Self-quoting is amazing. Feel free to wikipedia/google some of the terms in my post. It's an interesting read as to how IPs have developed over the years/decades.

When you think about it, the original Quake engine eventually evolved into both the CoD4 and L4D(/HL2) engines, yet both of them have startlingly different feel/looks.

I guess they could build it off CoD4 with a new storyline and graphical features. For the multiplayer edge it should be just left on the fun side versus competitive. Activision would lose more than half its fans if IW they made it too realistic and tactical.

Hopefully they would still keep the perk system but cast out them pointless and imba ones. Come what may, November 10th 2009. We'll have a brilliant game to play none the less.

Just to make things clear, CoD series since MW became an Action FPS series. The tactical feel disappeared after CoD2. *Sprinting was introduced + Climbing over almost anything introduced* Pray we get Balanced, Fun and Endless hours of gameplay in this next sequel.

You know, the IRL casualty radius of an M203 rifle mounted grenade is rated at ~25 meters.

If IW really wanted to make a realistic game...

e: bad @ maths

Falk damn free sia, I thought you're playing DoW now?

fragmentation~~~ Most modern body armor nowadays have flak neck-guards. You don't see many soldiers choking on their own blood after an IED or frag grenade goes off next to them. Note that down wacko, you know you want to.

Not to sound like a know-it-all *******, of course. I have (obviously) zero experience IRL with any type of firearm, and games are (obviously) completely different than real life armaments, but a vested interest in weaponry since CS days and the Internet has made for a shitload of awesome toilet time reading material.

Of course, this is a subtle disclaimer I may be talking out my ass and wrong 100% of the time.

e: On topic, this looks like a potentially amazing setting for both SP and MP maps.

This post has been edited by Falk: Mar 30 2009, 01:24 AM

lol and u wonder why they can pump out games like once every year....of course they use some of the core aspect of the Q3 engine and built it up but most of the things like physics etc have been changed quite a bit...it would take years to develop a new graphic engine....the name of the game is call of duty modern warfare 2 or modern warfare 2 doesnt make any difference...as long as infinity ward make the game....i think we should expect something awesome

This post has been edited by Pro-MX: Mar 30 2009, 12:53 AM

I think its setting would be in Brazil since Hulk are staying there for quite a while, u see all green setting, YES gonna be a hulk appearance in the game. [/bored]

the strongest point of COD4 is not its graphics. it is the extremely fun and exciting gameplay. it is superb...it is awesome...it is from infinity wards. (need some voice from the preview guy...coming this summer...)

+5.

Finally someone that ain't in community understands something from CoD4 xD

But the drawback from IW is not really tactical nowadays (competitive gameplay), but don't know lar when they already separated from Activision, I support this move

it is good. treyach is a b**** too i never play their ripped off games man.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

lamer SPers..

fun then can adi la...apa competitive tactical bullshit u talking...lol.....the reason they dun wanna use the call of duty name again to prevent making new COD every year i guess

This post has been edited by Pro-MX: Mar 30 2009, 12:24 PM

eh? MW2 is not separated from Activision, it's still under Activision, it's just not under the CoD series anymore

lolx, i think in multiplayer if you reach the highest rank you can be the teddy bear? lolx

but anyways, i love infinity ward games because its better than the movies



This post has been edited by slainemcroth: Mar 30 2009, 12:32 PM

highest rank u will evolve to pedobear form hahaha

The preview guy died

we have pablo. lol...or something.

anyways, as long as it is realistic shooter in a sense that more realistic than other online shooters. then i am happy. tactical i wont mind. LOL...i love R6 series before they go noobish arcadish.

EPIC, seriously can't wait.

*hums* where'd you go, i missed you so, it feels like forever, that you've been gone *hum*

Falk mentioned that Modern Warfare and CoD will be separate?

Call of Duty - WW2
Treyarch

Modern Warfare 1/2 - Present
Infinity Ward

Honestly, there isnt a real need to change the engine, cept to enhance certain details like the omgiaccidentlyclimbedacarspacebar button.

Also, i believe they should have the option of all perks or no perks or even an in-game you can/cannot use this perk system. Its not hard to do, looking at the files. But i hope they learn from what became of pam/promod/am/damn/zombie mods that diversified/enhanced the game. Generally, all they really needed to do was to have the option of having "tournament" style maps/game modes, and "public" style maps/game modes to choose from. This at least shows that they are interested in something more than just the public eye.

Modding has helped this game stay alive but it also diversified and divided the overall community. Perhaps now they will set this straight and either make it easier to mod the game or set their own ground rules for tournaments.

Unlike Counter Strike which originally started off as a mod for HL, which introduced a completely new metagame and then evolved into a standalone game, the problem with CoD4's PAM/Promod/etc competitive scene is that it's an enhancement of an existing game type bundled with CoD4, and the international community has had ~10 years of 'experience' in the sense that they all kinda each 'know what they want', hence the splits between versions, etc.

As much as I'd hope for Infinity Ward to embrace the pro gaming side of things (Heck, even Blizzard's World of Casualcraft is trying to break into that market share with official support for tournaments/tournament servers/etc) I remain highly skeptical that MW2 will oblige us right out of the box. They didn't do it for CoD4 even after some moderate community interest in CoD2.

And let's face it, the amount of people playing in European/NA/Asian leagues are pretty much a drop in the bucket compared to the hordes of people playing pubs daily on X360/PS3.

The only real way it'll change is if some leagues, with their sponsors, start throwing some serious money and publicity at the game that Infinity Ward sees it fit to embrace the subculture. Unfortunately, the old saying that "Money talks" is very true here, and IW (talented lot that they are) can't afford at all to spend development time on something if only a few hundred people appreciate it in the end.

This is part of the reason we're trying to fan some life into the Malaysian (+Asian) CoD4 competitive scene. Any support we can offer to our peers at the EU/NA international level in terms of showing the popularity in competitive international gaming for Modern Warfare in these critical months up to the game's launch in November is absolutely essential.

Doing largely volunteer work marshaling and admining tournaments on weekends isn't something that remains fun for very long, but I'm putting in that effort because I do want to see Modern Warfare going places, long term. CS is on its last legs, and lets not even talk about Sudden Attack.

One thing that can make or break MW2's competitive scene in its first few months is how much IW acknowledges and supports that we exist, or failing that, how the international community reacts as a community in the absence of that support. Can they agree on a specific ruleset this time around? I'm really hoping that the Asian community will at least have some weight and voice by then, rather than us playing with our own toys while EU/NA argue over Promod/Damn mod.

This post has been edited by Falk: Apr 5 2009, 03:47 PM

O___o. Agree. XD.

My aim is that we at least get a vote in TCA.

I should be able to arrange for such in the future but I'm too lazy to start the process.

For MW2 I should think by now it'll be patently unsupportive of the competitive scene out of the box, what that is what mod support is for. As long as they AT THE VERY LEAST give mw2 as much mod support as cod4 got, then I'm not particularly worried, competitive mods will come out, and the CoD community are particularly "unified" at the moment, they see the benefits of give and take so that they can be unified and represent one single mod ruleset so that it can be used in tournaments globally.

Well yeah, I really hope that the community (specifically the one immediately surrounding the well-known names in modding) learnt a thing or two from the ridiculous amount of shit-flinging that's been going on in the past two months or so over what mod to use.

Well the shit-flinging made for some really entertaining posts to read

Shit-Hadoken!

Just occured to me. Go register "www.themwalliance.com" now and we'll be set starting November. :V

izikill. try come to our HQ.. tbun 2 wangsa maju.. here pc are always up to date..

Modern Warfare 2 Gameplay Reveal Promo

i hope it doesnt turn into another damn Battlefield game with vehicles. Hopefully less perks and i hope there is not *TAKEDOWN* like in the vid =.=

i 2nd that quack.

If IW is listening to noobs on Twitter for Live feedback last time, I guess there will be more perks and weapons. And sure the stupid "reality" things will come out. You see wtf got Judo?

If vehicle is available then forget about it unless there's competitive mod by IW itself, then there's hope.

i tot thats what i heard. IW going to make it as open as it can to make sure we can mod it like hell. =P im pretty sure it can be highly competetive.

Refer to the original CoD4 trailer. There's a lot of animations that exist solely for single player/cinematic purposes. :P I mean, how much of that trailer's content do you see ending up in what the big EU/US leagues use? (i.e. Promod today)

Also Infinity Ward's single player portion of games are famous for their scripted vehicle missions. (all the way from CoD1's 3rd level to CoD4's finale) I'd actually be extremely surprised if you -didn't- see a glimpse of that in MW2's trailers.

This post has been edited by Falk: May 12 2009, 07:25 PM

How about the takedown similar to knife? Just that you need to takedown the knife the fella..

games are not made out to be competitive...they listen to people and change it to make it more intense and fun i guess...they still need to cater to casual players...not just competitive players....to make it competitive thats when mods comes in....anyway cant wait for may 24th for the world premiere =D

This post has been edited by Pro-MX: May 13 2009, 06:21 PM

You mean "May"?
