1) Was nothing like CoD4 in terms of feel, felt more like an arcade game, CoD4 in comparison felt a 'little' bit more tacticle with the leaning.
2) i Really Really Really REALLY hate bobby Kotic.
I love how people are whining about spending $60 on a game when that's still lower then how much most of the world are paying for games, I've seen games that are costing £45 now even before MW2's release.
I hope Black Ops isn't full of sporty people who usually don't play games, they ruin it for me.
Most people only hate it for the simple fact that everyone else around them enjoys it.

It's not that I hate the 'game' (A term which I apply loosely to MW2) It's that I hate all that it represents.
It represents the worst of the gaming industry,it mostly draws in the wrong types of people and it promotes poor sportsmanship. It's a cash-in that is overhyped as a means to show other publishers: "Look! We made a lot of money by recycling and treating our employees like slaves! Join us to stop creativity and bathe in money!"
It's mindless, juvenile and ultimately an idol to represent all the worst of the current generation of games.
[quote=melnek]-Activision [B]I dont see how that is relevant in any way to hate on a video game[/B][/quote]Activision used to publish good games without getting involved (much). Now they go berserk at the sight of cash.
[QUOTE=Melnek;24007450]Most people only hate it for the simple fact that everyone else around them enjoys it.[/QUOTE]
Or the simple fact that everyone else around them hates it, and are bandwagoning.
Honestly, most of these arguments about it are just bullshit.
Overpriced DLC? Dont buy it, problem solved, stop whining. (Also, the other map packs for COD 4 + 5 were $10, and had 3 maps. In MW2 you pay $15 for -5- maps. You're paying less for more.)
$60 USD? Most games in Australia are $120 AUD when they first come out, which is around 100~ USD. Stop fucking whining.
Shitty community? The community isnt that bad on xbox. Guess I'll assume everyone playing an FPS on PC is 12 years old. But even then, easy solution. Don't use headphones, or mute everyone. Problem solved, yet again.
No skill? Its a -game-, you're not actually killing people, it doesn't need skill. YOU'RE PLAYING IT FOR FUN.
Noobtubes? I have barely ever seen a person using a grenade launcher in my time of playing it, which was I think around 4 days-ish.
Only thing I agree with is the tiny campaign, took me 6 hours and I sucked at it when I got the game.

Nonono, THEY don't. Bobby does, and he is the only thing that I dislike about Activision.
I don't like to play games that turn wars into shallow action movies.
Hackers, unbalanced MP, community is 12 years old, fun and sometimes epic SP, campers, overuse of breaching and that shit. Oh and did i mention the campers?
They propably have no friends IRL to play with.
[editline]03:56PM[/editline]
Don't complain about the single player, you and I both know that the reason you bought the game was for multiplayer.
[editline]03:57PM[/editline]
And the DLC is cheaper on a map per dollar ratio, even though the just put in the old maps, Im not planning on buying them but I still have fun playing with my friends and meeting people online.

For me there isn't anything bad about CoD MW2.
Sure the ISS scene was stupid but mostly the whole campaign is pretty good.

You'd best be joking, 360 has the worst community of the 3 platforms.
Hype.
COD4 was aslo Hype but less fanboy generated, there was Hype for a reason if you know what i'm saying - It was acceptable hype, but then Activision had to go jumble with us; Instead of making a brand new game they went "Well people like COD4 so lets make some more of it!" so then the community fanboys havfe the Hype the fuck out of it and start rumors of the games content,.Put the Hype aside the game came out and you know what we got in return, -£30 and a game that could of been some DLC.

If there's someone shooting you from anywhere before you're shooting at them you can pretty much bet that you're going to die.
yeah most people hate it because of the community but you know there is a mute buttom right so yeah
and you dont have to get dlc's but you should and who cares if its overhyped its about your opinnion and it deserves to be overhyped because this is a really good game

[QUOTE=adamater;24010876]They propably have no friends IRL to play with.[/QUOTE]
I doubt it, the reason why I bought MW2 is because all of my friends would buy/play it.
We had fun for a while, until people found out that they can use FN-Scar with a grenade launcher. One month later, majority of friends ditched the game and they swore never to buy another game just because of popularity and hype.
[QUOTE=CaptainSnake;24003248]I dont understand why they nerf 1887's but leave G18s, noobtube/oma nootube and hackers alone.[/QUOTE]
They didn't nerf anything I thought, they just fixed a bug.
Overrated, overhyped, unbalanced multiplayer, short campaign and expensive DLC. Thankfully most of my friends have stopped playing it.
- Laggy P2P connectivity on the PC
- Dumb story
- Unbalanced weapons in MP
- Unbalanced perks in MP (see: One Man Army and Danger Close)
- Useless perks in MP (Painkiller)
- No spawn protection, dying when you spawn sucks
- No admins to get rid of cheaters in MP
Despite playing the game less on the PC and more on the PS3 here's the reason I hate MW2 or dislike it's features:
[b]The invention of the quickscope, I admired shooting a sniper rifle without properly aiming but this is an over used tactic.
People who redeem themselves 'mighty' because they spin in a 360 degree angle and successfully kill.
Unrealistic, shitty Tactical Knive and Commando Pro made this series possibly the shittiest.
A spawn system which is frankly fruastrating as it ends too many killstreaks at 2.
And on the PC, the absolutely poor connection on IWnet and having to join 100 ms ping servers.[/b]
mw2 r gud, it reqirs u 2 thinc an wurk as a teem. i guv mw2 a 100/10, coz th grafixs are gud.
[QUOTE=Painseeker;24001213]Personally I have a lot of fun playing MW2 multiplayer, that is until some 12 year olds start spamming "LOL N00B XD" and the like in chat. Then there's the assholes that just spam insults at everyone, they're equally as annoying.
Basically it's a decent game but it has a shit community. Shit being an understatement.[/QUOTE]
If U don't want PPL 2 call U a n00b dont do cheap shit liek n00b tube & knifing shit & quickscoping
[editline]08:51PM[/editline]
DLC prices are awful though. They can suck a dick no way I am paying $30 fucking dollars for 10 fucking maps.
I started not liking it after Bobby Kodick's remarks about gamers, and the fact that he likes the idea of charging $15 for DLC packs, AND the fact that he actually thinks that gamers want a "pay-to-play" subscription plan.
Overall, the reason I started to hate this game is because of the asshole known as Bobby Kotick. He's a lying, arrogant, cocky asshole.
I don't actually mind MW2. There are a lot of issues, but to be honest I only play it really because I like fast-paced death match games, and I got sick of HL2:DM from overplaying it.
I did play it quite a bit with friends at a LAN party on console, however.
