  • My inbalance detector just went through the roof.

    Guess whos going to be in that Spectre for the most of the round? Especially since its equipped with a legit "wallhack" and instagib weapons? In TDM type of games where you respawn immediately a 30 second timer will give you more kills than you ever need. The gameplay will polarize even further. Good players will roll sub-par players around, using every glitch and technique available and incompetent players will resort to camping, nadespam and whatever else they can think of. I dont mind the methods gameplay, but you can kiss "conventional" games goodbye. And still, players of higher calibre will absolutely destroy the servers. How many of you will carry a STA missile? I wont.

    When I log into an average pub server, I have constant UAV, I average about 4-6 airstrikes and 2-4 helicoper raids per an average 1500-2500 ticket round. Reaching 11 kill streak is not going to be an issue. And I see a whole boatload of more talented players than me.

    Then theres the certified wallhack in the form of a heartbeat monitor. IW will have to pull some incredible sh!t out of their bag of tricks to balance this game up, otherwise the only way this game is going to be enjoyable, is if well see either Promod, PAM mod or DAMN mod in development.

      0:36 - heartbeat sensor looks to be available in multiplayer.
      0:41 - the ability to lock-in on gunships and shoot them down with rockets.
      0:46 - AC130 gameplay
      1:16 - Semtex replacing C4?

          • Impressions of 'Special Ops' mode:


            Sounds cool, but I kinda wish that 'Aliens' mode a la Nazi Zombies rumor was real.

              You mean that was only a rumor!?

              • It better not be. Nazi Zombies was the best thing about World at War.

                Infinity Ward will feel the wrath of my slightly bent golden bat (see avatar).

                    • Why would you need a public beta test? It looks to me like people are getting their demos and betas mixed up. IW is one of those companies that can get their games to work without a beta.

                      A multiplayer demo with one map would do the trick just fine.

                      • I'm actually not distraught at all over the announcement of no public beta (for now).

                        It really isn't necessary for them and it'd cost much more money to host servers for a public beta that would get flooded in a matter of hours.

                        A closed beta seems fine; you at least have professionals on it who actually play the beta for what's main purpose is, and that's to find any bugs or glitches to patch up before its final release.

                        • Modern Warfare 2: The Highest-Selling Game Ever?

                          Comment


                          • One of the reasons they even have a shot at best selling game ever is because most of the other major holiday games were delayed like BioShock 2.

                            That would make up for some serious competition, and I'm sure Activision is happy about that.

                            • Competition wouldnt really affect sales that much. Modern Warfare was a huge success, in almost every possibly imaginable way. It delivered a great SP experience (not my cup of tea, but most liked it, so), the best multiplayer experience in 3-4 years, with long legs and it had an amazing competitive base.

                              Modern Warfare 2, as seen to be intended to capitalize on every strongpoint that made COD4 what it was, can only be a megahit. And probably rightfully so.

                              However, I will flip Activision two long fingers if they wont release any mod tools. There are no good mods out for COD4 and maps are terribad, made with COD2 mapping tools...

                              • That also crossed my mind while I was writing that post...

                                Considering MW1's popularity, I weighed it out against other popular titles. Although, I do believe it could have had a slight effect on them. Perhaps not very big, but just a little.

                                Mod tools, eh? I don't know if I should get the PC version, actually...

                                All my friends play on Xbox, although I'm big on mods and modding (I'd like to know how to, and it can't be that hard, but I have no experience whatsoever)...

                                I think I'll just stick to a console version...
