Huleboeren Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 That AA12 sounds like mad rape in MP to me aka, not a good thing :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konstanov Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 That AA12 sounds like mad rape in MP to meaka, not a good thing :s Fully automatic recoil-less shotgun fed by a 20-round drum, I can see how that could be viewed as mad rape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 That AA12 sounds like mad rape in MP to meaka, not a good thing :s Meaning it's terrible at longer ranges thus making it useless in many situations and then people don't want to carry those unless the map is extremely CQB biased. I mean, it's pretty much the same with the current situation and the auto-shotgun, in CQB situations it's in-your-face annoying but the other 90% of the time it's useless. ( I'm aware of its deadliness even at range but the weapon is sure to have been balanced / toned down for the game ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted October 17, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted October 17, 2009 No dedicated servers on the PC version? lolwut Skip to 1:41. Robert Bowling. Flat out. NO DEDICATED SERVERS. Matchmaking only. They ask him about custom content. He completely skips around the issue. He knows that there won't be custom content but doesnt want to embarass himself. Wow, MW2 has changed for the worse. http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2369799 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 So it's going to be just like the console versions, not having to sift through a million tard servers with messed up settings, 64 players and weird ass host rules? Win (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeke009 Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 (edited) No dedicated servers on the PC version? lolwut So it's going to be just like the console versions, not having to sift through a million tard servers with messed up settings, 64 players and weird ass host rules?Win (Y) No mod tools = No custom content or mods (N) No Dedicated servers = no clan servers (N) No Dedicated servers = possible end of competitive ladders (N) No Dedicated servers = means those few servers you frequent and play with friends are gone (N) Steam integration = Map Packs+Patches (DLC) on the PC may not be free anymore. (N) PC Release = No delay (Y) Only one piece of good news today, the other news makes things a little uncertain going forward for the PC crowd.

Good points but considering I use(d) none of those when I played the PC version, it's not really my focus. For my own personal preference I'm glad to see user-control removed and a more streamlined, standardized servers introduced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For my own personal preference I'm glad to see user-control removed and a more streamlined, standardized servers introduced. I can agree with you to an extent. What has me concerned is that some servers for CoD4 or CoD5 have some pretty good "communities" within them. I personally enjoy the servers run by the guys at "The Company", especially their War server for CoD5. In MW2 they are gone and all the other "community" servers. I'd love to see IW come along and give us an explanation of how this news will change the way we play the game. I haven't canceled my pre-order, but I'm curious what this means for PC gaming moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lezard Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Tell me about it, with the cash I saved from buying this POS I can now buy L4D2 and Bad Company 2 ^_^ Thanks Activision for completely ruining the experience! Not really MW 1 was epic. I love the dedicated servers and the community. Pc crowd really know how to play! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Natan Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 You know what's funnier, such a high profile game, they will eventually crack it wide open and bring the ability to add mods, and Activition and IW will be mocked (like they should). They are ultimately the only losers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sethos Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 All those tears, the thread might drown! On a completely different note, who's up for some Spec Ops fun / achievement hunting come November 10th? ( 360 ) Probably not going to be on the 10th exactly but in the following days thereafter.

The guys I who came back from a hiatus to play CoD4 in their old guilds (I'm talking CS pre 1.0 old) are going to have a **** fit too. Won't mean a thing to the console owners but this is a kick in the balls to any PC gamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
