Modern Warfare 2 - Multiplayer

Erm, not really, but in a way yes.

You still have the minimap, you still have HUD, but its redesigned, with no crosshair.

Weapon damages are redone, so some are even more potent, while others have reduced damage / recoil.

Alot of weapons taken out, as well as stuff like claymores and C4.

Movement is changed, you run a tiny bit faster, go prone and stand up a bit quicker, not by Huge amounts, but if you open the cfg files you can see the changes are there.

It's basically a stripped down cod, with class and weapon restrictions, can only have 2-3 smgs per team, and one sniper (Igame configured their's to have 2)

Also no killcam if I remember correctly, you cannot see where the bastards are camping :)
 
Dunno if you guys ever tune into the bashandslash podcasts. They are quite long, about an hour every Saturday, but they to an extent represent the competitive/modding PC COD community.

They always have about 5 hosts and regular guests from various areas of COD, including the more renowned and accomplished modders, console gamer input/comparisons and top PC league players making a living off COD competitive play. More recently Robert Bowling (where the no dedi servers was first announced) and Reaver from Teknogeeks on the unofficial dedi server development.

Listening in on a quite a few of those, the general international opinion on MW2 in terms of competitive play and longevity are quite grim, but they are getting their hopes up with Teknogeeks' progress with dedi servers.

All the regular hosts represent very large and active MW1/COD communities and something they bring up regularly is that MW2 has had a very negative impact, splintering the communities and more importantly that the multiplayer experience is sub par. Most of their communities are migrating back into COD4 as a result, in particular (no shock here) the competitive players.
 
After a Dedicated server mod is released from Teknogeeks, is it possible for SAIX, and Igame to host servers? Will this be legal?

I played a few games last night. I called in 3 care packages they where all empty :confused:

Did this happen to anyone else?
 
well a new patch was released, for single and multiplayer. totalled around 7 megs total in download

Probably weren't empty, you just received some extra ammo.
 
Got about 4 hours gametime so far. Still only lvl18 at the moment and my KDR is in the dumpster at 1.2. :(

But it's fun at least... when I'm not playing like an ass. :rolleyes: Had a lol moment when a player on the other team called in a supply drop. I sneaked up on him as he was grabbing it, killed him and stole the drop.......... chopper gunner. Pwnage ensued. :D
 
As long as my KDR is at 1.5 I'm happy. :) My main problem is that I like completing all the weapon challenges (except the headshot challenges.... they take forever) before moving on to the next weapon. And now most of the weapons have got a crapload of challenges. Which is taking a bit longer than usual.

I only finished the first assualt rifle yesterday. :rolleyes: I like the perk challenges tho, very cool.
 
Yeah there are loads of challenges. I didn't really bother with them. I used the M4 till I got the ACR, then used that to get to the AK, and I'm happy now.

rephrase, Was happy.

A recent update added WAY more recoil to the gun, also reduced it's damage and penetrating ability a bit, rendering it allmost useless now as a prize for reaching level 70 :(

I'm quite disappointed with my KD in MW2. It's only just over 2 :(

FOr some reason up until about level 30 I seriously sucked. I just could not do anything right, only won a handfull of games, from there it pickedup considerably, but 30 levels of near Negative K/D is damaging and hard to avenge, lucily its sitting on 1.9/2 now so its not all bad.

Same with the ACR, doesnt seen to pack as much punch as it used to.

I found a detailed descriptions of all the guns damage, fire rate etc, if anyone comes accross those stats please post them here, I cant seem to find them anymore.
 
lvl 28 now and KDR up to 1.35. Also, got my first AC130 last night in a care package!!! Shame it doesn't last that long. :(
