Modern Warfare 2

we all know infinity wards extensive weapon knowledge......

AC-130 sounds like a douche of a perk >_>. The helicopter was bad enough, it would be at the most awkward and impossible angles and it would just nail you right through the roof of a building, where your not even visible...

At least now they have to aim it themselves, so if they don't see you you're good

My hope is that while you're using the gunship, you're entirely vulnerable to attack; dying will kick you out.

Plus there are 14 other streak options (11 if we assume that UAV, Airstrike, and Helicopter are returning) to use, so I'm pretty sure IW will find a way to balance it out.

I can imagine the game getting so much more intense , with all the explosions and smoke. I suppose it will give extreme conditioning even better reasons to be used.

I just hope that if there's some form of ghillies with silenced weapons, the ghillie suit works with the environment it's in and the red name appearing doesn't happen. D:

It looks like there are now 5 killstreaks; 3,5,7,9, and 11. Each has 3 choices, it would seem. I'm fairly certain things will play out as it goes on. Another possibility is that different people could have their 5 streak up while someone else has a different 5 streak up, resulting in ridiculochaos. Like having a chopper and an AC130 up at the same time. (Ignoring the fact that they're different levels)

[Inferno]

Better than that would be a airstrike, a chopper, a AC130, attack dogs, Artillery, and large penis monsters all exploding and fighting on shipment with 50 players in the server.

And yes there is such thing as 50 player shipment servers.

Awesome sauce

That is so bullshit. I dunno, maybe they've got something cooler for us? If not, then Infinity Ward has utterly betrayed it's largest set of gamers.

As uncool as that is, I wasn't going to spend the $120 or whatever it is on a special edition anyway.

[343guiltymc]

The CE edition of COD4 PC wasn't all that great (it came with a what, Prima strategy guide?!), so even if IW did include some kind of new CE edition for the PC, I wouldn't expect the any of those editions to offer much. I would like to think of it as a good thing, since IMO most PC gamer are smarter than to spend 120 bucks on a gimmicky plastic toy (packaged with a game rated for older people, no less).

343, CE edition is redundant.

"Collectors Edition edition"

And I really had no plans of buying any Special Editions for the PC. I can live with plain old vanilla MW2.
