Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

So Call of Duty modern warfare two is said to be coming out this fall. What are your thoughts? Additions, omitions?

I and probably most of the COD4 players here would LOVE to see the ability to bunny hop be completely removed. Sure you could still try it but you would regret it when you are face first in the dirt being shot at. The player characters should be more dynamic and less stable. Grenade blows up next to you and all you do is slow down a bit. It would be kinda neat to incorporate a balance system where players can fall and in some extreme cases trip. Being able to drop prone in mid air while aiming and not hurt yourself when you hit the ground is not realistic.

I saw one suggestion where Last stands vision should be messed up as well as their aim. I don't think it should be removed but toned down would be nice, unlike COD:WaW where they made it last longer. Also whoever puts the player into last stand should ALWAYS get the kill and if somebody polishes them off they can get an assist.

A DOG perk (Lvl1) You have a dog with you. You can order it to attack for you. Send it into building before you rush them.

Kills for taking down helicopters... TWO kills for taking down helicopters... They have two pilots right? Assists for people who help. The kill point should go to whoever does the most damage. I would hate to empty a BOX of ammo into a chopper and have somebody take a few potshots and drop it.

Multiple Weapon Additions. This would be a nice perk. It would have to be balanced in some way though. Could be a level 55/65 perk so not EVERYBODY gets it. Or make it not a perk but you need to complete head shot challenges to get. I always thought head shot challenges should unlock weapon additions but that would probably piss off a lot of people who are incapable of pulling off so many head shots.

I would love to see some substantial level 3 perks. I think this would stop a lot of people from using martyrdom or last stand if there was something more useful. Sure Dead Silence is useful if you are sneaking or Iron Lungs if you are a sniper or Deep Impact on an MG so you can spray and prey. But there is nothing that stands out on it's own. What lvl3 perk goes good with a strait shooting no nonsense assault class? Now that I think about it I don't even know what I stuck on my Assault class...

NO Vehicles... tanks were a bad idea, this is COD not Battlefield... Enough said

No HUGE maps, this is COD not Battlefield. Maps should be a decent size so that you are not always spawning down each others throats nor get marathon in the first game. Also All buildings should have more then one entrance. This would help stop noobs who sit in a corner somewhere and watch the one and only entrance into a building. Of course there would probably be some acceptations to this. On second thought. A Rope Perk.... (Probably Lvl1) This would allow you to climb up or rappel from predesignated locations. Climb into a nest and shot the Noob in his back as he watched the door.

I'll add more if I think of any :ohmy:

[||§§||Hand_O_Death]

Perk, you get 2 attachments for your gun, Red dot AND Silencer would ROCK, but takes away the extra grenade perk (Possibly all grenades.

And Taking down the Heli should always be a priority so you should get a kill point for it, but it should be harder to take down then

they will add coop I am sure.

If they do a M.A.G. and break you into squads, then they can pul off bigger maps, but like you said, no vehicles or it will be another BF game and we are all waiting for BF3 for that

I always thought that in last stand your reticles should do a random sized figure 8 to show pain while trying to aim. Maybe even a moan when you fall so the guy knows to finsih you off.

Dogs are pretty Meh, mostly MPs have them and they are not brought in the middle of battles anymore. this is MODERN combat, we have little remote drones now (Like R/C cars) Maybe it could make a big noise for recon or something. But not too powerful or you get into that Fuels of War crap where everyone was an engy

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

Bomb squad should be able to disable explosive devices. If you get behind a claymore you can disable it so the explosion doesn't give away your position to it's planter. I can usually bypass or avoid claymore all together but I hate leaving them there for another member of my team to stumble across. If I detonate it though the owner is usually now watching the direction the claymore once protected.

[||§§||GhostDog]

That's good news.

A few things I would like to see....

-More slots to create more classes would be nice and the ability to edit them between spawns as well.

-Points for taking down choppers would be nice.

-Maps slightly larger than what COD4 currently has to offer would be all right with me. Even if it only extended to what we currently see just outside the fences and boundaries.

-MGs should overheat after extended use to keep spam down to a minimum

-I would like to see Last Stand toned down quite a bit. Seems now that a lot of players who use this drop with their sights already on you like some kind of auto aim. Plus, even if you're alert to another player's LS and keep on shooting after you knock them down, there's a 1 or 2 second protection on them that gives them the chance to take you out. This to me is dumb. Blurry vision and wobbly aim sounds good to me.

-Jumping I'm OK with. Bunnyhopping in COD4 is nothing compared to what the BF players have had to deal with. But jumping and/or diving with precision aim is rediculous.

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

-MGs should overheat after extended use to keep spam down to a minimum

Yeah or if after like 500-1000 rounds you had to reload. I really do hate when somebody just sits on one and sprays down the map... this is a big problem on downpour

[||§§||Hand_O_Death]

I agree and ESPECIALLY with thebeing able to edit classes during gameplay before respawning. Not just the 10 seconds before the next maps reload.

[||§§||Hand_O_Death]

Nice quick post on kotaku today. Modern Warfare 2 will be out for the holidays.

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

What no teasers? :cry: lame

Oh well at least we have a more definite release date... assuming that they are on time.

[||§§||Hand_O_Death]

hardly mentioning it is the biggest teaser of all lol

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

If COD:MW2 is actually any good do you think it might replace our COD4 server? If that's the case I hope it brings back some of the players who have migrated to COD:WaW

[||§§||Hand_O_Death]

yea, we will see.

[||§§||Pugilist]

It's good to hear Modern WarFare 2 is coming our way because I have come to hate COD5

A few things I'd like to see in MW2:

- Open perk selection, if I want to trick out my main weapon with red dot and extended mag and silencer and a WWPD sticker, let me - open up X number of perk points with things like Dead Silence consuming 3, each gernade 1, etc - this lets folks go hog wild and still can be balanced

- NO DAMN TANKS - in COD2 a single shot to the rear from the bomb bag or bazooka took out a tank - as it should

- No dogs - sorry as much as other people's chopper's annoy me, those bloody dogs, spawning right on top of me, are idiotic

I like the rope and disarm ideas as well. I mostly use bomb squad and it would be nice for it to be more effective

[Surf3rDud3]

Teaser!!

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

Yeah dogs wouldn't be used in modern times. Helicopters do suck but the dogs are more annoying. One time I had an enemy dog get stuck somewhere and it wouldn't let me call my dogs in until it was killed. I kept trying for longer then the one minute it should last.

Perhaps if the helicopter was toned down a little... no more aim bot or wall hacks on the helicopter. Also making it impartial would be nice. It sucks when you are in first place on the loosing team because their constant wave of helicopters will always shoot you first. I can understand threat assessment, shoot the guy with the RPG before the sniper. Also the helicopters should be more dynamic instead of following a set path. It should seek out it's targets. I hate helicopters that do not do anything at all. I can understand not letting two helicopters fly in the same airspace but it would be nice to have the helicopters have the ability to take each other out. Just last night I was waiting for the enemy helicopter to leave so I could call mine in. As I pound the 6 key getting "Helicopter not available" over and over I then hear "Enemy helicopter incoming". Helicopters should stack, as soon as you call it in the game will send the next available one in. A lot of the time if I am sitting on one another one will be on it's way before I even realize the first one is gone.

More then one air strike at a time would be nice too. And no more *click* "Select a location" *click* "Air strike not available" Those times bug me the most. Because then you have to wait for the last plane to be 5 miles away before you can even begin to target your drop. Being able to choose the direction of attack would be nice but at least knowing it would be sufficient to plan out better air strikes. How many go wasted on just buildings and not hit a single target, or worse drop it on yourself because it didn't attack from the direction you were hoping it would... even if you should have been far enough away from it. Air strikes are much better then artillery though. Artillery takes way to long to hit it's target, then it lasts to long. And of course you cannot call in friendly artillery until the enemy shelling stops, as if you are worried about the shells colliding in mid air :hmm:

[||§§||Dr.H]

Now that our server is a lot slower than before I've been wondering if there is any benefit of us going unranked? We could then nurf the airstrikes and heli or give the heli only 1 hit point for example. If we wanted to go extreme we could even turn off nades and tubes but I don't see that being as much of a issue as the huge scores people get from constant airstrikes that give them more airstikes.

Though then we would be in the situation of us changing things meant to be in the game vs only limiting certain playing styles as we have done in the past.
Of course without the heli and airstikes it would be down to more of a gun based skill style game.
Then again the top players on the server are usually ||§§|| guys, so is it a concern or would it help bring some of the other guys scores up some? Confusing....

[Surf3rDud3]

Yea I think its a good idea and when comes out CoD4 MW2 will yall Shut down the old and open a new one on MW2? Its a random question but i wanted to know.

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

As long as MW2 proves itself worthy, hell even if it doesn't having a MW2 server will probably bring back the masses that left for WaW. I'm sure most of them are looking forward to it as much as I am. Unless they really are complete WWII buffs...

Only time will tell what cool and exciting new features we get. Honestly I hope they keep and maybe re-vamp the old maps and leave it up to server owners which ones to use. Having more maps to choose from is always best, and the maps MW1/COD4 players are used to would be a nice addition. Like open up the bottom decks of cargoship, that would really change the nature of that map, give the infiltrators a chance to get past the sniper nests and constant nade spam and helicopters.

As for our server personally I don't like the idea of removing any of the in-game elements. I like striving for that helicopter (even if I constantly only get 6 kill streaks). The only thing that gets me sometimes is multiple people who use nothing but the grenade launcher, but taking it out would only remove a valuable anti-camper weapon. That and a few of our clan members, and you know who you are :p, love to use it in such a manner. The problem isn't the perks or addons such as the m203 or triple grenades it's how the people use them.

That is actually in game video. Okay the first trailer was kinda pointless but there is a lot of game play in this one. Granted it seems to be more of the "cinematic game play" the call of duty series likes to do. You know where you are in control but only kinda. You can see some of the parts that take place in your characters view.

I want some more cut and dry facts. Whats in multi-player? Weapons, perks... I heard from one site that the riot shield will be a perk and that just sounds like a bad idea to me. It sucked in CS 1.7 and it will suck if it's in MW2. Besides riot shields are for riots not stopping bullets. The damn things would be to heavy to lug around if it could stop all rifle rounds.

[Nightmare]

yeah it's all movie like high-res trailers first until people actually post gameplay footage on youtube like they did for l4d.

holy shit you can actually control the plane! kick ass! i like the heartbeat radar and the stinger. :) looks like theres going to streak perks, that'd be cool too.

sweet looks like tons of fun. cant wait till i have some money to get it lol. (thats if i can even scratch together some and a computer that can actually play it lol.)

[||§§||Foehammer]

I hope they make that AC130 really really really hard to get, otherwise it'll be so easy to rack up kills.

And I cannot wait for this to come out it looks great.

I hope they let us customize weapons more, like with different gadgets, such as the SP had on your M4 and stuff.

i agree :)

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

It's pretty funny how people are already complaining (twitter feed) about the AC130.

Seriously how many people actually get 11 kill streaks? Most people have trouble just getting the 7 to get a helicopter in COD4. I know I die most of the time at 6 kills.

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

During the E3 2009, Activision announced that Microsoft will get two Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 map packs exclusive for the Xbox 360 for a limited time. Later these will also be released as downloadable content for the PS3, nothing has been said about if PC will join the party or not (but it is unlikely).

Somebody needs to ball tap bowling and then break his xbox 360 and threaten his family if he ever buys another one.

If xbox and ps3 get map packs but the PC is left out of the loop I will be really really unhappy. This, however, has not happened with COD4 nor WaW. We may get them later then the console versions but they are usually free. I will be less unhappy if they charge for them (doubtful) but it's better then nothing

[||§§||dkadar]

so in other words we r probally going to left out of all the mapfs for the game. If so that sucks.

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

so in other words we r probally going to left out of all the mapfs for the game. If so that sucks.

I doubt that the map packs will never make it to PC but they will delay them of course and get their moneys worth out of them from the console owners before giving them to us. Still the mention of it is enough to make me worry.

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

So there is a little more news regarding the Riot Shield. All the details are not clear but it sounds as if to use the Shield you have to use both hands. It sounds like you cannot even use a pistol with the shield and it is merely to defend another player such as somebody planting the bomb.

Delayed a day, odd.

So you can throw your knife, interesting.

And WHY is it that all videos are of the damn 360 versions of games... Isn't it easier to capture video off of a PC?

[||§§||zezura]

because the major companies hate PC gamers now

[||§§||Dr.H]

I'm starting to have some mixed feelings on this game. It's nice to see that the maps are larger and they have some newer guns like the FN SCAR and what looks like the HK MP7 at least I hope they finally upgrade the darn MP5...

Not sure if I like the knife throwing.. and I hope they don't overload it with crap and make it a mess.

Anyone see the final weapon list yet? I've seen some online that don't match.

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

The final weapon list is going to be left a secret,
The MP5 in the video is an mp5K
The throwing knife is a replacement for your grenade.

The only thing I'm really worried about at this point will be how riot shields effect game play. Not being able to kill somebody but they can just walk up and hit you with their shield seems bad. I really hope they didn't make the shield bullet proof as a real riot shield isn't going to do much agaist a rifle round and especially at close ranges.

Oh and I have no idea why they do all their testing on 360... it's just lame...oh it's probably because they have to make sure the 360 can handle it... like I said earlier computers have no limitations but you have to program for what you got with consoles.

[||§§||Dr.H]

Yeah you're right it's a MP5K.. just a shortened version of the MP5.. sigh I was hoping for the pistol style newer MP7 Christ it's been out for almost 10 years and it's much cooler!

http://suicidesoldiersclan.com/picture.php?albumid=11&pictureid=326

[||§§||Hand_O_Death]

I love me some MP7, but people don't like change, the MP5 is still really good, and I guess people just decide they they don't want to vest in a new gun when their old model works just fine.

That Said, Still thinkgs the MP7 needs more lovin

no word either way on if the mp7 is or isn't going to be in... they are adding a shit ton new guns and keeping most of them a secret.

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

The current news right now is that Modern Warfare 2 will be delayed for the PC two whole weeks!!!! I really hope this is nothing more then a rumor but I have already lost faith in the game developers when it comes to PC... They are bringing us nothing but bad console ports and make us wait for everything.

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

So yeah the more I learn the more I am disappointed in IW. This game is far so far from the authenticity of it's predecessors it's pathetic. IW made this game for it's fans, and who are it's fans? Console Fanboys. This game is adding so much that should not be on the battlefield of COD4...

First I noticed the WA2000. This was a limited edition Sniper rifle made by walther. There is no possible way this rifle would EVER see combat. But it's in there. Despite my personal opinion thinking this rifle looks like shit, a lot of people thought it was "cool" and therefore must be added. My personal Favorite Sniper rifle the Draganov however will not be in multiplayer. Even though it is the sniper rifle you are most likely to see Russians or insurgence using. Oh and there are only 4 sniper rifles this time around.

We also all know how much of a joke riot shields are. First of all they are not used in the field of battle for one major setback. RIOT SHIELDS DON'T STOP RIFLE ROUNDS! but here is infinityward arming soldiers with some sort of impenetrable BULLSHIT plastic... Because this idea worked SOOO well in Army of Two...

Bandoleer perk replaced with "Extended Magazine" attachments, I'm 1/2 surprised they didn't call them clips.

You can choose to fight with a sawed off, pistol grip double barrel shotgun as well as the old ass lever action shotgun from terminator 2...

1911 is no more but the deagle is still there

Claymores, C4, and Grenades all considered "Equipment". If you want a grenade and claymores, Tough! you're out of luck. Why is more ammo an attachment when claymores and C4 equipment?!

I so should have gotten a job with IW as a creative consultant...

Oh forgot, here's a kicker, 25 kill streak! Tactical Nuke!!?!?!?!

[||§§||Reign]

Nice videos!!!!!

[||§§||Hand_O_Death]

yes the nuke kills EVERYONE. The only advantage of this is to destroy kill steaks on both teams.

And I love the 1911 those who hate my Last Stand class already know this. it has excellent power and cyclic rate.

[||§§|| Sven The Slayer]

Robert Bowling himself gives us more reason to hate IWnet


What modes are in hardcore? Is free for all in hard core as well?

Rob: First of all you can do any mode you want in hardcore private match. In public play-lists right now we have hardcore team death-match, and hard core... Whats the other one?...
The cool thing is that's stuff we can change on the fly.

So publicly you cannot even chose to play what modes you want in hard core unless THEY decide to let you do so?!?!? You also have to unlock the hardcore play-lists by playing the game. So why is Play-lists better then Server lists?! They are loving play-lists because they can change them on the fly but I still want to know why they think it's their right to control how we play the game?! Private matches will never equal privately owned public servers...

Oh and the current word on the nuke says it's an INSTANT WIN!

Also the lean ability has been removed.


02:34 Mackey-IW
The game is not balanced for lean.

WTF? the game doesnt have walls? or corners?

9 vs 9 is the maximum player size.

*Sniff* *sniff* I smell a direct console Port


02:54 Moriarte
Ignoring IW.net, is the PC version a direct port of the console version?

02:55 Mackey-IW
No, PC has custom stuff like mouse control, text chat in game, and graphics settings.

Custom stuff? F@#King mouse control and graphics settings... more like platform necessity.

The more I learn about this the more I want to NOT BUY it. I was still going to give multiplayer a try but they seem to keep making arguments for me not to give them a dime.

The coop looks really fun but I am not getting it right away now. hopefully we will find another game that brings everyone back to the clan like it was before.

I'll be the patsy, I'll bite the bullet and get it. I'll let you know how it goes. Oh and if you don't hear from me I died from internal bleeding because of how bad it was.

Watched some gameplay footage. IW fails. looks like the automatic berrata is 3 round burst and has NO recoil. The player was sniping with it.

You can duel wield the sawed off double barrels and it looks like you can magically reload one without dropping the other, you know halo style, with your penis. The entire thing looks so fake, the guns don't even drift so it looks like they are bolted together with a 2X4

Well we (postal, kith and I) managed to play a few games with buzzard tonight. His ping looked pretty bad but I guess it was playable. This was one of the things I was worried about and it didn't seem to be a problem.

Now that was a good review!

To cut it short.. great graphics and game physics and crappy storylines made by now rich lazy crappy, we use to love until they crapped in our faces IW........crap lol.

I think these are my main drawbacks on not getting the game yet. I'm sure it's nice and shiny and fun with brand new sparkle toys but the fact they ripped CoD4's soul out of it is still irking me..
