Modern Warfare 2

[gta 4 gamer]

Wasteland is the worst map in the game and in the history of Call of Duty. There are stupid snipers who get a silencer attached on with stopping power and kill everyone. And you can't flank the snipers because you will find a noob tube grenade launcher killing you. And the miniguns... I don't need to mention that. That map is terrible. Nothing else to say.

Menaced: Your sig.... Is that who i think it is? I haven't played the game yet so i'm just guessing.

highrise is the only map I REALLY like.

 

 

 

I still miss shipment

Yea, it is who you think it is. Its Soap! He becomes the captain in the game!

[EmagmaLak]

all in all i would say COD4 has the better maps, but i wouldnt swap the MW2 weapons/attachments etc for anything! MW2 guns on the COD4 maps would be gaming heaven!

[FullMetal]

Well, Modern Warfare's maps were way to small. It would've been great if they'd remade some of the popular ones and made them larger (I'm thinking about Crossfire with MORE vertical gameplay... more routes like most Modern Warfare 2 maps have. Same can be said about some other epic maps...).

 

Also: it's now complete. 'Level hackers' are already active in Modern Warfare 2 on PC. People know how to edit the .txt files in order to achieve the highest rank and highest Prestige in MW2.

 

FUN FACT: they stated that ALL your progress and all your stats would be 'hosted' and 'stored' online (and NOT local on your PC which makes it easier for people to 'hack' their accounts to get instantly the highest rank).

 

It's now complete... laggy/buggy online play, game hasn't been tested fully (alot of different types of crashes and issues), active hacks and hackers release day + 1, stat hackers (in other words: IWNET fails and DOESN'T store everyones stats online...).

 

gta 4 gamer: THANKS FOR THE SPOILER! Just what I needed!

My favorite maps are Terminal and the two with snow (Sub Base and Derail I think). Some of the other maps are good, like Favella, others are just plain boring.

[Slingaa]

Does anyone know where I can get this cheap(ish) in the UK?

 

Thanks.

[Lethal Nizzle]

My favourite maps at the moment are Invasion, Karachi, Skidrow and Derail.

 

Invasion and Karachi simply because there are so many routes you can take to anywhere in the map - with multiple storeys, these maps really catch my eye. Skidrow is an easy map for me, because I have a strategy that works everytime on S&D, plus the map is similar to the previous two in the sense that there are loads of ways to get around the map. And Derail, finally, good sniping map. Silenced Intervention works a treat.

Sainsburys £26 I think

Sainsburys £26 I think

Wow, really?

 

EDIT: Oh noees, out of stock.

I assume that's sarcasm? Because I'm pretty sure you finished the game?

 

And my comment was not a spoiler.

Yeah,but they should get more in

[Rebel]

I like nearly all of the maps more so than COD4, but that's just because I haven't played online in COD4 for like a year. The only map I hate on MW2 is the one with loads of houses good for sniping, and then 2 small wooden bridges on either side of the map. I hate it because its damn hard to try and get anywhere when some sniper gets a good spot.

Yeah, they're e-mailing me when theres more in stock. Thanks.

 

Can't wait, customising kill streaks looks amazing!

I think that is Rundown, with the sewage stream running underneath the bridges?

Haven't the prices risen back up again?

 

I thought £26 was just an offer for like 2-3 days for the games release?

 

Also, about the sig; I remvoed it. I completely forgot that it was an obvious spoiler, I'm sorry.

 

On another note, something amusing just happened. The game threw me into a 3v5 TDM. Within one minute of the match starting, both my teammates left me on my own against the other 5 enemies. I was on my own versus 5 other players, and amazingly I won... by one point.

 

They really need to get this sh*t fixed. When people leave the game, their place should be replaced and the matches should always be 6v6, not 3v4.

 

In my opinion, MW2's MP has been a total disappointment. If it wasn't for the awesome Campaign I would have swapped the game for something else. I'm trying my best to like it, but the sh*tty maps and the empty matches are really pissing me off.

It was a known fact from e3 that Soap is the captain......

[Straznicy]

I love Highrise, Afghan, Terminal and Wasteland. I despise Estate, Quarry and Underpass with a burning passion.

They were on about the fact that Captain Price is back, not Soap at all because not everyone has the game yet. If you knew what they meant though, then my bad.

[Seddo]

I've just completed the singleplayer on regular, awesome game and a fair few unexpected twist and turns. Loved the sniping missions just wish the stealth sniping aspect of the mission lasted a bit longer like All Ghillied Up from the first one, the sniping missions in this one seemed to turn into normal assault pretty quick.

 

Going to move onto veteran soon...let the hair pulling and swearing at the TV begin.

Hmm, well my dad took my PC and mw2 back to his beacause he has broadband so it downloaded this time and ill get it back tomorrow. Thing is now the graphics are f*cked. All the letters on the menu and ingame are a mixture of some chinese and blurred colours. I've had a look around the internets and everyone is saying i need to update my card. I think its something like a radeon 1650. my dad has a 1950 I thinkski. but we both get the same problem. When he goes onto the ATI site and tries to update it, it wont let him. Not sure why. Just wondering if anyone else got this and knows how to fix it?

[oldage]

wow sorry, I somewhat read soap as price because we were talking about Menaced's sig and I thought you meant price so...

[saintdave]

What’s even odder is the fact that the sig your talking about that Menaced has on is a scene from 28 weeks later and nothing to do with MW2!

[oldage]

his previous sig was a MW2 sig with all four members on. price too

[3niX]

Well...

 

Okay. So, out of curiosity, Ive tried to wrap my head around the plot (by reading comments, watching videos and reading a bit of wiki [yeah, I havent had the chance to get it yet, nor do I have the chance to run it on anything]).

Anyway... it all seems a bit half arsed and over the top (even by Michael Bay and John Woos standards). This whole thing is just an endless sh*ttrain. Ill put it all under spoiler tags.

 

Im adding the wiki link for reference:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Warfare_2

 

The rise of Ultranationalists is acceptable (plot wise) to a certain extent. I mean, Hitlers death didnt end the war immediately either. But everything else just goes down the sewer starting from the airport attack.

 

Firstly, If you can get as far as organizing and executing a terrorist attack with the guy youre supposed to take down eventually then why the f*ck couldnt you just kill the motherf*cker while he is in the elevator with you. Also, if you knew that such an attack might take place then why couldnt the US of motherf*cking A just tell it to the authorities so theyd be prepared. Oh, and are Americans really that thick as to think that an American soldier fresh from Whereverthef*ckistan doesnt raise a single f*cking eyebrow in a terrorist organization.

Furthermore, the fact that Russia would start a war so quickly, so silently with USA (yeaah dawg... those billion dollar satellites are pretty useless, not to mention the "small" Ocean theyd have to cross with such a large force) without a single debate over the attack in any of the countries (how did they link the dead undercover terrorist to US of A anyway?). Howd they even organize the forces together so quickly? Why invade the country and plunge your nation to uncertainty a short while after a civil war? If you wanted revenge, Im sure a nuke could easily suffice. At least Zakhaev had the balls to do it.

 

And thats just a mission or two worth of plot. The rest of it is just as illogical.

 

Ill continue with questions.

Why bother with attacking a Vriginian suburb instead of... oh, I dont know, say for example... disabling all military bases in the country and then proceeding the attack on larger cities (NY, LA etc. would have been MUCH more interesting places for battles)?

Why rescue Price (and him only) from the gulag? Why use him as bait (Makarov didnt seem THAT dumb when the Americans sent their undercover guy, so why would he start driveling like a vegetable now)?

It does look like Price isnt the brightest of guys though... he tried to disable enemy equipment with a nuke for gods sake! Thank god it was some magical nuke with no radiation (and no effects on the ozone, atmosphere etc.)! The only trouble is... since it also disables American equipment then the Russians could just send new forces and equipment (they seemed to have plenty in the previous games considering the endless streams of spawning enemies) whereas the Americans are stuck with their hunks of metal (where did the f*cking fighter planes come anyway? if they really thought a nuke had gone off in that area then why would you continue carpet bombing it?). Its also nice to know that the American army has such high regard for culture (what with all the trouble they went through with trying to rescue historical monuments instead of civilians [of whom there were, oddly, no signs of anywhere]). Oh, and saying that the civilians evacuated is a useless assumption if youre going by the plot since the Americans had no idea they were being attacked.

 

Of course, then theres the case of Shepherd... Oh boy...

The secret lair thing sounded more like a Bond movie (hows it secret anyway if youre attacking it?). His aspirations of becoming a "global hero" didnt help either. Nor did the fact that his betrayal made no sense (why would you try to cover up something which would have no merrit on your "global hero" status).

 

The ending wasnt really an ending either...

 

 

Which is a bummer since the first Modern Warfare was actually fairly coherent. It at least made SOME sense.

 

 

So, IW, next time... hire someone older than 3 to do the plot.

this guy spoke truth

ill continue

Also russia starting war with USA cos they found american terrorist in russian airport and they thought it was american attack? Lev and kiril died also in airport russia could have thinked something out of that,

 

maybe they were alrdy pissed cos their "hero" imran zakhaev was killed, but that wouldnt make sense cos zakhaev was killed by british not americas(well it was joint operation with US and UK)

Ahhh that Pit is a bitch, just missed out on the 30 second mark by point 3. Still it's an improvement as i was originally getting times in the 50 seconds mark .
