Nevermind on Modern Warfare 2
I was planning on being real busy playing it next week. But after reading this, I’m canceling my preorder. I was already somewhat miffed about the lack of dedicated servers, so I’m now forced to speak with my wallet. If they just wanted to make a console shooter, they should have done that. Thanks Infinity Ward,…or is Activision to blame?

Meh, I have TF2. I didn’t really plan on buying this after realizing how much of a nade-fest the first one was.
I don’t really see having a 18 player cap as a negative. If the maps were designed for 18 players then everything should be fine. That was my main problem with MW1 on the pc. Having 50 players on maps that were only designed for 12 or 16 was no fun at all. More players doesn’t always equal more fun.
I don’t think 9v9 is a bad thing either really. I hate playing on some of the COD4 maps with 32 people and as soon as you move you die. I think this might actually promote more squad type tactics, as you’ll need to rely more on your teammates to stay alive.
If I want to play a 9v9 game, I’ll play on a server that’s capped at 18 players by choice. I have always chosen to play on larger populated servers because I like the chaos, especially in CoD4. It made it seem more like a battle than a covert mission. Not to say a covert style multiplayer shooter wouldn’t be great, just not with random dudes online.
I think the real kick in the ass is that this is coming out a week before launch. Most people won’t even be aware of this when they buy the game.
I just read that there is no leaning either because, and I quote “The game was balanced with leaning in mind”. WTH? I figure it’s only a matter of time though before someone figures out how to mod it to connect to their own dedicated servers.
LOL no leaning either?? damn
I grew to understand the no dedicated servers thing. They want everyone to use IW.net for player matching in an effort to stop cheating and piracy. I got it. I didn’t like it. But I got it. The 9v9 thing is utter crap caused by IW.net not being able to handle more players.
I still want the game for the single player. but I’m at the point where I can’t justify spending 60 bucks for it.
You should check out Battlefield Bad Company 2.
I know,..that game looks awesome. The destructible environment stuff is amazing. I think it’s a March release, so right in time for my Bday. =D
The best review I’ve seen about the PC game http://www.gamearena.com.au/pc/games/title/modern-warfare-2/reviews.php?id=5033868
