you have any idea how difficult that is to get? there are quite a lot of measures in place - as well as the general design of the maps, perks and weapons - which make it pretty difficult for anyone to campwhore for 25 kills and to have the necessary rank/unlocks to be able to drop 'the bomb'. ive not seen one in 15hrs of multiplayer play yet.
I've seen one... after 50 hours.

Good thing it came too because chopper gunner was raping us silly.

Putting your head in the sand and pretending all these faults aren't there doesn't mean they'll go away, either.

I suppose you enjoy the 60 fov, too? Or haven't noticed it...?

Please.

IW have shoveled out shit and you just won't admit it.

60 FOV doesnt really bother me either. all these things are trivial when you don't spend all your time reading forums that bitch and whine about the game. everyone has 60 FOV, there's no huge disadvantage. the game looks good, feels smooth and plays well. it's F U N . i dont think IW have shovelled out shit, not at all. if you're expecting the follow-up to cod1/cod2, then you're dumb. if you're expecting anything BUT mw-console style gameplay, then you're dumb. that's what the modern warfare franchise stands for now. the system they have isnt ideal for pc gamers, but it still works without aggravation or complaint-worthy fault.

Of course I wasn't expecting a follow up to cod1/2. I was expecting a follow up to Cod4. And when you compare the two, all MW2 offers is less choice for the PC gamer in pretty much every aspect of the game. Although I must admit, the custom mouse control and in game chat must be a great thrill to see in action.

I must admit, i was severely sceptical about playing this game and was ready to jump all over it. But, i'm suprised at how much i enjoy playing it. I don't feel all that much rage when i get lamer killed either and i can't explain that, on BF2 i'm ready hit the roof if i get gl'd point blank. MW2 just represents a quick and easy ruck over some pretty good maps.

alas baggs, this is what some people of the PC community can't accept - CoD MW2 (or w/e) is just a fun game. No, it isn't a novel, or an academy award winning film, or mozart etc, it's just a shitty fun little game.

widespread opinion is that mw2 is more fun, better and an improvement on the faux-serious, 'im still desperately trying to cling to a semblance of pc-pr0 sensibility', spammy mw1 shit. so i don't really know what you're talking about there. and QUIT the boring bandwagon hopping on IW developer's quote-train dicks all the time, jesus. do you really think you're being witty or intelligent by making such puerile 'satire'? i use hazardous quotation marks because even labelling it as satire implies some sort of skill with wit, which you critically lack.

you're just boring. you haven't played the game and you're desperately clinging to the same 4-5 pseudo-arguments against the game that you have gleamed from rabid-bandwagon articles and shitty second-hand sources that have floated around the internet 100 times over now, helping to fuel the general geekrage and indignation of the pc gaming 'elite' (hazardous quote marks used again for the same reasons of dubiosity). no one should be more disappointed than me that a call of duty game represents THIS. but im playing it as if it's a different franchise - which it effectively is now, in a developmental and marketing sense - and it's fun. sure i can't play it for 1000 hours and become a leetzor with rifles-only and be all high-and-mighty and i-r-serious-fps-gamer, but i can hop on, be connected to a great, fun server in 2 minutes, and i can blast away for hours on end. i couldn't do that with mw1. it was too awkwardly stuck in between casual-console design and still vainly trying to cling to the old pc-gaming tradition and competitiveness. it was just bland, uninspiring and full of spammy, shitty features. even the modern-warfare brand features (perks, deathstreaks, killstreaks) have been drastically improved in their use, effect and utility so that it's not such a frustrating rage-fest. it's a better game than mw1, and the only reason that you'll refute that forever is because you're a sheep to a bunch of 'enraged' nerds that like to piss and moan and boycott something. 3 months ago it was l4d2 for steam's shameless business opportunism, now it's IW's turn because -- shock horror! -- they're doing the same thing and are going for the $$$ and the widespread popularity. i find that to be a very childish and naive reason to 'make a stand' against a fucking company. wisen up a bit.

aww, shiyeet. no lean? fuck. i mean didn't the gaming community learn that leaning is the absolute fundamental mechanic of all pc-fps games when battlefield 2 instantly flopped?

I recall seeing leaning in that Black Hawk Down game and i remember thinking 'what pussies, just get out there and spray your weapon'.

Fuck'd if leaning was in MW2 i would be using it.

who even says authoritatively that half of those 'differences' are a bad thing?

oh and some of the stats are dubious. average ping for server: 10-40ms? 10-40ms?!? maybe if you play on the server down the road all the time. average ping for mw2- 100ms? really? i regularly find games in the 60-90ms range and that's fine. the number isnt as satisfyingly low, but it makes no practical difference in-game. im not even going to justify that over-used, recycled image with a point-by-point breakdown. the game is FUN. that's qualitative. throw all the meaningless quantatitive statistics you want, the game and all of its features and all of the multiplicities of changes and digressions and differences still creates something that is ultimately FUN to play. and the significant thing? MW1 didnt even have that sense of FUN, it got boring extremely quickly and proved sourly dissatisfying. can you comprehend that, or do you need a meme-circulated 4chan image or a link to an opinionated gaming-blog or something to substantiate it?

Who used lean anyway? When i used to play CoD4 i don't think i ever say anyone using it

The only counter argument you can offer is that "yeah, but it's fun", which is fine obviously, but I'm not arguing that it is or isn't fun. That's purely an individual experience and could very well be fun to you.

My argument is that IW have downgraded the quality of the PC game simply out of their lack of care towards the pc player base and individuals such as yourself. That you can blindly ignore that, to me, is incredible.

I have no problem whatsoever with you finding it enjoyable. lol

I didn't even have keys bound to lean in CoD4. Except right lean to get to the pipeline MG glitch. In CoD and CoD2 lean might have been useful, in CoD4 not that much.
