The lovely chaps at Infinity Ward who in their infinite wisdom decided to remove dedicated servers from the upcoming release of MW2 have gone several steps further towards insanity recently by confirming a number of shocking modifications to the game.
- No Console (no modifications allowed)
- P2P server hosting, with testers receiving 100ms
- Players have no control over 'server' location
- No Lean
- No kick functionality
Just when you thought they couldnt go any further wrong, they've succeeded! I end with a quote from IW Mackey - "I've been playing mainly with around 100ms ping and it was great."

shame because cod4 was an excellent game in both public and competitive scenes :'( but all developers are console focused now for the money
i just hope SP will be awesome
and again:
Take this one for example:Or the way they laugh in our face:It's not about the ones that are illegit, it's about the ones that are legit! Fucking tards...
Brink wouldn't be the first game to be hyped as fuck and end up as a big pile of shit...
but what else can we do than wait for the next game to disappoint us.
EPIC.
Do they think we are braindamaged retardmonkeys?
mouse control and text ingame
fucking amazing, than you IW for your hard work in porting this game over.
YES!
Perfect example of making the stupidest decisions possible and still end with a shitload of sales.
1 you make a game for OTHERS, SO GUESS WHO SHOULD TEST IT?!
let them test with 50 ping and after with 200 ping, guess what they will prefer?!
and NO don't test it as maker yourself... -.- n3rds
Supporting cheaters nowadays?!:DDD or ppl who teamkill the whole team?!:DDDDD you guys must have lost your brain :DDDD or is it then insta BAN?!:D by who?!:D
noo just no, 5vs5 >> 5 uk 3 spain 1 swe and 1 isr :DDDDDDD have fun! :D
:'((( you made ever a game which was perfect??:O)))
Looooooool
It's as if companies these days pick some random person off the street to give answers to questions they have no concept about whatsoever.
Next time someone posts one of these interviews, I think I may ask a Somali pirate to give his thoughts on the role of the W.I. in british politics and post that aswell. You'd probably get a more clued up response with regard to the questions being asked lol :D
its going to be the worst multiplayer game..
"..."
Get it for your PC instead and you can make use of cool custom features such as 'mouse control'. :D
anyone want buy my WOLF2 ? ^^
Haha, moar please :D
now im waiting for:
- Final Fantasy series turn based jRPG system added
- ultimage combos for every weapon
- X-Men mode where you can shot lasers and shit!
- micropayments for new classic deluxe custom designer
luxury prestige high-quality premium select gourmet combination
key ring, magnifying glass, and garden hose, in a genuine
imitation leather-style carrying case with authentic vinyl trim.
- NFS style races between missions
- Hello Kitty theme for younger female customers (hey, you have to think bout everyone!_
- and for premium version customers House M.D. skinpack
o_o?
EVIL LAUGH. HAHAHA
wat is your point
Because, I see a lot of shit like that posted, and it's all essentially just bullshit spam posted by retards.
Wow. Just wow.
:XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
I bet IW.net has some sort of "suspicious" player reporting system so that IW.net admins can ban any players that own on pubs.
Theyre doing what they think will get them the most money. Which is most likely right.
not me that needs the sense of humour.
Serious comment lol:
The crossfire community/"Competitive Gaming"community is such a small fraction of the gaming community that IW don't give a rats arse. Even with dedicated server support (therefore lan tournaments with large prize money) and the flow on affect for sales, IW made so much money from the sales of CoD:MW that they can do things like this.
10,000,000 in forecasted sales minus what? maybe 100,000 people "claiming" they won't buy the game because of no dedicated server support.
Rough competitive community breakdown:
400 teams in Australasia (Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Philippines, island nations etc) @ 5 players per team = 2000
600 teams in Asia @ 5 players per team = 3000
800 teams in America @ 5 players per team = 4000
1000 teams in Europe @ 5 players per team = 5000
Total = 14,000
Warrant most teams will have more than 5 players so your probably looking more like 15,000 to 20,000 competitive players world wide.
The remaining 85/80,000 dedicated server supporters will cave and buy the game anyway (if not just for the single player) and are more than likely just "pub only" casual multi-player gamers.
Compare that to the remaining 9,920,000 xbox, PS3 and PC gamers that will buy the game to play it "as designed"/"out-of-the-box" and you get back to your point which is basically; 'They will maximize profits this way' and 'that's just good business'.
... but i'd still like to throw the whole skilled gamers vs noobs out there as a far left theory, for shits'n'giggles.
nice done keep on fucking all sorts of new games WTFF!!
RAAAGGEEE!!
FUFUFUFUFUUFFUUFFUFUU!!!
Games getting worse every damm year and well it will continue. Why fix something that is not broken?
Mackey-IW: Our goal is to ban hackers from the game.
MADE ME LOL :D
I SAY BRAVO! THEY FUCKED UP A GREAT GAME BEFORE ABOUT A WEEK BEFORE IT COMES OUT
My favorite lol moments:
This guy obviously knows nothing about hacking on the PC
What an arrogant fucking prick. If you designed the game well enough the first time around we wouldn't have to build a promod for it. Developers should embrace the community, not alienate them.
Or you can use your celeb status to force ppl to create a new anticheat for cod2 ;)
It all returns to nothing, I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down
It all returns to nothing, it all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down
It all returns to nothing, I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down

and to remember that wolfenstein allready was full of shit :(
Still worth buying (downloading) for the SP
Now i won't.
I just hate the fact they want to disguise their moneygrubbing techniques with
"Vince-IW: IWnet was designed to make the MP experience on PC easier and more balanced."
sad sad sad sad day , been looking forward to this game since cod5
Think Vince is going to be fired, he told us the game was crap before the release :D
So this means yes! It's the console version with mouse input instead of the gamepad, and we can chat with each other! never seen chat in online games, ooh forgot it's in almost every game.
They might as well have left out the multi player and sold it to PC gamers for 25 euroes!
''to keep a steady continuation of revenue''
and thats all i wanted to say :p
high @ 65 fov forcced
The brilliant fan-daz-i-tastic thing about the internet is that knowledge is free, commerce is free, everything is free – why on earth do people become mindless fans of franchises or developers? Become needless consumers?
Whatever happened to the DIY attitude? Esreality had it. Warsow has it. CPM definitely has it. Crossfire had it. This was our world, our internet – no dev can ever replicate that – and we’re all too entrenched to go elsewhere, so you better get used to it – the last stand, it won’t last long. The internet is slowly but surely being carved up and attacked by commercial conglomerates on one side and intrusive government regulation on the other.
Hold out - hold on.
I'm right though ^^ "omgz why doens't this massive company selling millions make a game exactly how I want it?!?!" - Warsow be the way to go - or alternatively, ET is the best team fps & CPM dm - why change? We don't reinvent footy every few years...
I'm sure there is a reason why they've cut x, y & z, crippling the competitive scene, but I for one don't know what it is - and their absolute ignorance in the face of Q&A is bound to anger 'you people'
I don’t need the FA to organise the 5 aside every Thursday – neither do I need IW to buy me corner flags.
