Modern Warfare 2

[Enjoii]

 

 

 

 

Modern Warfare 2 is set after the conclusion of Call of Duty 4. Sergeant "Soap" MacTavish will return as a non-playable character, and has been promoted to captain in the Special Air Service. MacTavish will lead an elite, multinational commando unit, Task Force 141, to counter the resurgent Russian Ultranationalist organization. The group is now led by Vladimir Makarov, a former associate of Imran Zakhaev with his own nationalistic ambitions. Makarov has been portraying Zakhaev's death as an act of martyrdom to garner support for his cause, and has built a strong power base in Russia over the years. In response to the threat posed by Makarov, the global community established Task Force 141 to stop him. The player will take on the role of Task Force member Sgt. Gary "Roach" Sanderson. Mission settings include the mountains of Russia, a desert in Afghanistan, and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Just a minor edit, but can you remove the [ center ] tags?

[Omnia sunt Communia]

Great job Enjoii. Really informative topic, defiantly better than wading through pages and pages of information like in the last topic.

 

I'm really looking forward to this game and hopefully we wont be limited to playing as just Roach. I believe they said that you get to play as members of the Navy SEALs, SAS and Delta Force as well during the E3 spotlight.

Sure thing, done.

Yeah, the Taskforce(s) that 141 is based on is made up of squads from around the world, and along with 402 saying that we will get to play the game from 'different perspectives' in one interview, it's likely that it we won't be limited to Roach only.

Thanks.

 

Also, here are the sigs from the other topic if anyone wants one.

Sweet! Excellent job!

 

I really thought 402 said we'd be playing characters from different task forces as well?

Lets start chatting about the game shall we? The games looks AMAZING so far from the trailers/demo's we saw. I really wish the p90 stays in the game with additional perks. I also call for a zombie mode!

Well the P90 is in the SP as someone discovered from one of the gameplay videos in the old topic, and at the moment the only coop thing in the game seems to be the Special Forces mode which is currently only confirmed for offline.

 

Kinda glad Zombies isn't making a return though.

Yea, I saw a screenie in the old topic where a p90 was discovered. The thing is, I want p90 in the MP! But why don't you want zombies to return?

[Pancho the great]

Ooooh, cant wait for this.

 

 

Im in split minds whether to spend some big bucks on a new pc or just get it for the 360

 

 

Alf you boon!

[El Zilcho]

Nice work mate, informative and well layed out as usual! Pumped for this game, as always.

Personally I thought that the Zombie mode was a bit boring. It was alright at first but after a few rounds of getting to higher levels it's pretty boring waiting to get back to those higher levels. But the Special Operations mode should be pretty awesome, hopefully they will also continue to support it with DLC missions and such.

[Alfresco]

w-w-w-wait.. G36 and G3 AREN'T on the confirmed weapons list???!!!

[oldage]

How will this special force mode work?

I'm interested in every game that has offline co op of some sort.

Yeah, I can't find any information on the Spec Ops. Are there any sources for it?

[Alfresco]

Nothing bar what 402 said in the GT interview last night.. which was that its there, and that its offline and separate from the main storyline

[Enjoii]

 

w-w-w-wait.. G36 and G3 AREN'T on the confirmed weapons list???!!!

Not yet, but the weapons confirmed so far have only been confirmed from footage of the first mission, so who knows. I'm certainly hoping that the G3 will return.

 

@Special Ops: There's no source links, it's mainly info collected from interviews. It will contain a variety of missions that can be done in co-op (1-2 players) and will capture the 'spirit' of Mile High Club. Recently 402 also said that they will be taking parts of certain campaign missions that would work well in co-op and using them in Special Ops mode, but they will be separated from the actual storyline.

[Alfresco]

402 is lining up for his IGN interview now, I don't really expect any new info or footage though

[Enjoii]

Most probably just going to be another replay of the Cliffhanger mission, certainly won't be any MP news after what he said on the G4 interview the other day. Here's the IGN streaming link for anyone who isn't watching already:

Install player? WANK!

I believe these factions should be playable....I know most of them won't, but it's wishful thinking, who knows? Maybe we could get them in Modern Warfare 3?

 

Story Mode-Spetsnaz

 

Multiplayer-Mossad, Taliban, IRA, Chinese Army, South American Contras

[Enjoii]

Yeah, it's some small plug-in that has to be installed. No idea why, the quality isn't anything special and the player is just a standard web stream. No Linux support either

Apparently MW2 should be on in 30 minutes.

IRA, lol? Somehow I highly doubt that Call of Duty will be based on the troubles between Britain and the IRA.

[AbSoLuTiOn]

But why don't you want zombies to return?

Well i just don't think it will fit in with the game, it's got a pretty serious tone to it and then throwing in something like a zombie online coop mode, while fun and interesting, can just get bland and silly if it's gonna be included in every CoD game (i know it's dropped the CoD tag), it'll just become a gimmick.

 

Plus i think the Spec Ops mode will end up being way better, as i'm assuming it'll most likely have a set of objectives you'll have to complete.

[Enjoii]

MW2 is being aired next, probably in a few minutes time as they're showing a God of War demo right now.

 

As for zombie mode, I just remembered that in an interview 402 was asked if they were planning on creating a zombie mode, and he said no.

[Alfresco]

on now

[Gezim]

What makes this game so great? It's just another typical first-person-shooter.

[papanesta]

Was that just a longer version of what had already been shown...?

[Lethal Nizzle]

N'awww, all finished? Not much new, but the new routes for the opening mission were a real treat.

 

And the new AK animations + blood spatters = sweet.
