Modern Warfare 2

[Alfresco]

little bit more info on the comic

[Daz]

To be honest. I dont really give two sh*ts about a comic, or motorbikes. (Which is either not actually in the game or is a cutscene/'shoot off the back' esq mission.

 

Either way, I give about as much sh*t as it than you all will give about this post.

 

 

I want to see the achievements. I just want them to be SP and co-op only.

[FullMetal]

In my opinion they're overdoing it... Statue of Soap... Comic... Prestige Edition... Mad Catz crap... yes even Call of Duty UNDIES!

 

Although I'm the kind of geek that would want stuff like that (well, this time around only the Prestige Edition and the comic looks interesting) I still think it's overdone. No game (or even franchise) is worth this hype and overmerchandising.

Well that pretty much confirms the NVG are going to be sh*t, but that wasn't really surprising. "Toy Factory"," Jakks Pacific".

 

Well I'm only getting the game anyways.

I am actually laughing at both pictures that have been posted. IW, you guys so crazy.

[ElBarto3131]

[Enjoii]

Apparently the event tomorrow is going to be an interview with AceyBongos.

 

 

You lot have submitted over 300 questions for #MW2 - sorting them out will keep me busy on the flight! Search #MW2 if you wanna read them

Awesome

 

Damn, still 8 weeks until release

[asimov]

I'm too lazy to go back through the pages or search, can someone tell me what the framrate is going to be like? I heard they dropped resolution to boost the FPS. I do notice a fair bit of slowdown on CoD4, especially when airstrikes hit.

Well, seeing as it came from the actual developers, they'd tamper with the video framerate for the sake of putting on a good show. I found these videos are not really reliable, as teaser videos of GTA IV showed 60FPS, but in reality GTA IV runs 15-30 in the consoles.

 

But I assume the framerate will be the same with Modern Warfare. I don't see much groundbreaking graphical additions in the video, and I'm actually now a bit more glad they didn't. I mean, so what if the graphics have ambient occlusion and motion blur and other stuff but it ruins the FPS so much you can't enjoy the game properly?

[Enjoii]

 

We don't ship anything if it causes it to go below 60 FPS. Thats one of the main things we test for. 60 FPS is key to us.

Also, sounds like the event tonight won't just be an interview;

 

For those that inquired: I am headed to LA for an invite only Modern Warfare 2 event. First time I get my hands on the multiplayer.

there's this guy at a press conference giving info here http://www.videogamer.com/features/live_re...9-2009-786.html be aware that the server for the site is crapping out.

[asimov]

Suppressed shotties, f*cking yes!

[Wolverine.]

New confirmed info

 

- Dual SMGs (let the bitching ensue)

- MW2 BETA MP Menu Screen

- Silenced Shotguns

- All Killstreaks revealed

- Limited Edition MW2 Xbox 360 with 250GB HDD!

- New perks such as commando, copycat as well as the ability to respawn where ever you want (it replaces the grenade slot such as the semtex, throwing knife, riot shield, etc).

- There's something new called Deathstreaks.

 

For more information, be sure to check out IW's official forums.

[asimov]

Copycat - After being killed 4(?) times by an oppnent you can copy their perk setup.

 

Commando - increased melee range

 

I wonder if they'll have realistic sized shotgun supressors, or "No Country" 10cm long ones....

[Pat]

- Dual SMGs (let the bitching ensue)

I'm not even going to attempt to type a coherent paragraph to describe how angry I am.

[asimov]

I don't really see the problem with dual SMG's - the crosshairs will be substantially bigger, reloading will take longer, longer range shooting will be much harder. Sounds reasonable to me. I just wonder how they will implement it. I mean, do you need a perk or can you just pick up someones elses gun and manually equip it?

[weirdal]

Probably an automatic pistol. Don't get your panties in a bunch quite yet.

[Roastyleg]

ROFl @ suppresed shotties, my GAWD wtf kinda game is this now. f*ck me dead

[The-King]

How is there anything wrong with supressed shotguns? Finally an attachment for shotguns that isn't completely pointless, I can't f*cking wait to go around destroying people with a silenced DAO-12, it's like a dream come true. Not too big on the dual SMGs though, but as long as it's limited to MPs than I really don't have a problem with it, I don't want no dual wielding Kriss Super-Vs or MP5s though, that would just be f*cked up.

[Enjoii]

2x attachments is perk 1. And I'm pretty sure I saw one of the Sentry Guns.
