Naw, the single player in between mission video's will probably still be fucking awesome, so it'll be single player before multiplayer.
Bah, need to get a bigger monitor.

Oh, my, fucking, god. Those...ANIMATIONS...EPIC. They are forceful, realistic, and fit perfectly with the fast-paced action. Infinity Ward now officially has the best FP animators, hands down, fact.
On a side note:
3 Kill Streak: UAV
4 Kill Streak: Air Drop
5 Kill Streak: Predator Missle
Yeah, what is an air drop? Supplies? Ammo?Quote:

I heard in Bad Company, it's a sniper guided missile.
The predator missile is also a Anti-Tank Fire and forget missile that was developed by Lockheed-Martin and also replaced the AT-4, which somehow can target aircraft in this game.
This concept is very confusing.
How would they let you use the throwing knife? Is it a perk?
Well in CoD4 you used a knife as your melee weapon. Maybe this is an alternate use for it?Quote:

Well, it may not be done yet but it looks like it won't strain my specs to much =P. My 8600gt can amazinlgy run cod4 at all extra at 1680x1050, so I'm hoping this'll run at 1280x720 or 1440x990 on high.Quote:

If the ability was available by everyone, wouldn't people just be running around chucking knives blindly. You probably only get two knives. One for throwing and one for slicing.
It would make more sense if the knife was a replacement for your special grenades or even your frags, but that would mean everyone has it from the beginning. We'll just have to see how this turns out I suppose.
It's a bushmaster ACR. Magpul Masada, if that helps.Quote:

game devs know more about guns than soldiers - random forum user, 2009Quote:

This game looks absolutely amazing.
agreed
nope, you get all special grenades from the time you unlock create a classQuote:

The more I hear about this game the better it seems. It's honestly sounding so perfect I'm afraid to play it, for fear of tarnishing its perfect image in my mind.

I throughly enjoyed Halo 2 and it's multiplayer component.
That would be because their too busy 3shotting with their battle rifle, lunging 12 feet through the air with a energy sword or bragging about their pr0 MlG sKilLs.Quote:

Infinity Ward is making a terrorist simulation program. There going to destroy D.C.
Protip: MW2 Has gone gold and will be leaked soon probably.
Washington DC decimated? Epic game just got more epic.
Well there seems to be insurgents that have the white house captured. Maybe the President is held captive in his super-awesome nuclear shelter. The White House is a pretty important building I would think so why are there Apaches shooting at it? I guess the precision of the 20mm cannon does wonders against soft targets.Quote:

I bought COD4 for PC, even though all my friends played on XBOX LIVE. I don't have an X360, but I'd buy it on the PC regardless because 60 player support beats the measly 18 players on LIVE and PSN. Once again, MW2 for PC. I think I'll actually be forced to upgrade to a new GPU now. COD4 at lowest settings on lowest resolution chugged hard on my video card. It was only after I downloaded some custom config (which I can't find since then) that allowed me to play at max settings even at 1680x1050 res, my monitor's native res. Maybe one such config may come out for MW2, but I didn't buy COD4 until May 2008, seven months after the game was released.
PC, no question.
Better hardware, means better looking visuals.
Better networking means more players.
Better UI means a server browser instead of some shitty matchmaking service.
The trailer showed up some grand looking set pieces, but the actual play area is probably going to be pitfully small just like the first game.
More players in Modern Warfare is NOT a good thing, so I don't know why you'd be trying to hold that over the 360. Any more than 16 players in CoD 4 and the game just turns into a massive explosive spam-fest that only the most brain dead could enjoy.
32 players on Shipment or Killhouse :ohdear:Quote:

60 players on Killhouse :v:Quote:

So apparently you guys are just bad at the game, and playing in shitty servers! Don't hate because you're uneducated!
I actually kinda like games on shipment with 20+ people lol I pwn in it.
yep, I like arby n the chief, so I probably wasn't the first to see this.
This man speaks the truth. A good 2v2 really brings out the gameplay in CoD4. In fact I quit after 10 players.Quote:

But nonetheless. Console gaming is terrible. PC supremacy.
Downpour was my most hated map. It was just crappy.
I'd like to point out since I own both versions in question, the game doesn't look that much better on PC. Higher resolution textures, woo.Quote:

I mainly play COD4 because it makes terrific use of my 5.1 surround speakers and soon-to-be setup triple monitor surround visuals. So the more people, the more it feels like a real war, and that gets me off...Quote:

26 player Chinatown Team Deathmatch servers ftw.
Just a perfect number for the map.
Chinatown is pretty horrible map, I don't know why but I just hate it.
The best maps were 3v3 District, 2v2 Vacant, 1v1 Shipment, 1v1 Killhouse, 2v2 S&D Overgrown. 4p FFA Wetworks, 3v3 S&D Crossfire.
And a few other good ones.
edit-
4v4 S&D Downpour. Tactical + very direct combat since the map is a rectangle + Gaymore Ownage = :iamafag:

Hardcore mode is for people who can't shoot straight.

New MW2 info on the co-op missions.
Bump!
I loved COD4, and I will probably love this one.
and maybe i might just actually buy it instead of downloading like i did with COD4....
In other news, with the massive hype of a game comes 3rd party products! (mainly by madcatz)
This is the first time I have ever seen a throat mic used for a console... It still doesn't look as confortable as they say it does.
As for the mouse, it looks like a cheap alternative to the crap walmart mouse I currently use; maybe i'll consider replacing it with that one.
The XBOX controller looks uncomfortable and the rest of it looks like mostly gimmicks to me. The Skins and faceplate do look pretty cool, though, and I love the look of the Digital Camo Saitek Cyborg keyboard, though, I would never buy it.
The Saitek Cyborg has one major design flaw.
There's no blue back light, and that is one thing I cannot live without.

Is the stuff about no dedi severs or mods on pc, just a matchmaking feature true? That truly sucks :maddowns:
LOL there is pretty much no such thing as multiplayer for PC with dedicated servers. To be honest I don't see too many player hosted servers for COD4 anymore. Tons for Battlefield 2142, though. :maddowns:Quote:

Oh, and the PC version has matchmaking too.

What's ironic is anyone boycotting it/not buying it, just killed the game even more. Matchmaking needs players, and with none, then the people who sucked it up and bought the game will suffer even more. We all lose, unless we just buy the damn game and see how it goes.
At least MP will be at least slightly more devoid of morons, I guess.
I'm so mad I posted about it
Wow, so they delayed it, and made the price higher. I was hoping on buying ODST as a $30 game. Yet, I don't care. Bawl your eyes out.
The best bit is that I'd put money on a number of these kids having bought ODST
