Oooooh man that's good news. The only thing I pray for is that Infinity Ward does it, and not Treyarch. In all honesty, nothing would make me happier than if they left all the game mechanics as they were in the first MW, and just add a ton of content (a new co-op campaign, lots of new multiplayer maps and guns and stuff). Maybe a few tweaks here and there, but nothing more.

CoD:MW was probably my favorite online FPS game ever. This is exciting news for me =P

It wasn't necessarily Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 that was announced, although that's what was quoted. I'd be weary to give it any title until we know which team the game is from. Saying it's the second game could be referring that it's Infinity Ward's next title, or a Treyarch sequel to Modern Warfare. Which I suppose wouldn't be so bad, they did a much better job with World at War than I had expected.

Sweet, CoD: MW 2! I actually prefer W@W over MW, but they're both really good so I'll end up owning both eventually. I don't see the big difference between the two either, other than the time it took place during, weapons and such. So I could honestly care less who does it.

I expect more of the same... I'm skipping it. I just can't make myself like what they've done to the CoD franchise - perks, unlockables, etc.

Don't get me wrong, it plays great, but it's just not for me. Honestly, I prefer GRAW 2 over anything CoD, no matter who makes it.

I don't mind the perks system, but it does have it's issues, mainly balancing, but that's been discussed before. Weapon's still need balancing, and I would love multiple fire modes instead of being forced to only fire full auto or burst.

sounds good but I most likely won't pick it up as I'm looking to complete gears 2 first. I just need party like it's 1999 (easy just play more) and seriously 2.0 (gonna take forever).

I love this game. Literally.

Greatest gaming year for me in a while. This, Batman, Uncharted 2 easily make this one of the best years for gaming -- for me, anyway -- ever.

Great session last night everyone! And welcome back VA13TINE!

We got off to a rough start, those damn bastards that loved to camp and prone around corners, but we eventually got in a good rythm. Did we even lose a game after we left those guys?

I finally posted that pic in my message (about 4 messages back) that I mentioned. I sort of wanted it to be with that post, since that message was posted the day I got the item in the photo!

I'm enjoying the game, so far (campaign-only, at this point). I'll hit the multiplayer later. How's this "Special Ops" portion? Have many of you played it?!

That's one great looking console there, Pinhead. The Special Ops mode is a lot of fun, it puts you and a friend in different scenarios, same from the campaign, some fictional and from the original Modern Warfare.

I finished the campaign on veteran last night (technically, this morning... since I played into the wee hours, as I was close to finishing the game). I "have to" mention that I got ALL of the single-player achievements, as well. ;)

Veteran difficulty is NOT that hard in this game. I'm not just saying that, because I got all (original) 1000 points in COD: 2, 4 & WaW. If any of you might tend to pass on Veteran difficulty... don't worry, it isn't very hard. There was one REALLY tough spot in the cave near the end of the game, but just hide near the back of the cave and let your AI partner handle most of the action.

The only tough achievement is Pit Boss. Getting that one requires good accuracy and using "pistols-only" (and MANY attempts)! It's much harder than "New Squadron Record" in COD4, because you have to avoid shooting civilian targets. The two pistols with the most ammo - M9 & USP.45 - is the easiest way. You can't get the USP.45 until you do an initial run-through, but maybe you'll get it on the first try?!! Using the two pistols technique will also work in the first "Special Ops" mission.

I wasn't really worried about getting all the intel and the few mission specific achievements on my first playthrough. I'll go through it again to get the ones I didn't go for, but congrats. But yeah, veteran wasn't quite as challenging as it was in the previous games. I think what really made it easier was the toning down of grenades. I never had many grenades thrown at me through the single player, unlike in CoD4 were they through the all the time. It was like the had a duffel bag full of them.

Okay, Infinity Ward recently released the latest patch for Modern Warfare 2. Fixing the issues that should never have been there, and some that they had previously patched but players found a way to do again.
Here's a brief list of the top of my head.

  • Corrected the firing range and damage of Bling Akimbo Model 1887's when using FMJ
  • Latest Infinite Care Package exploit fixed
  • Normalized sprint speed while running with the Care Package marker
  • Sentry gun placement improved to prevent placement inside of geometry
  • Various XP hacks fixed


Rocky2000 and myself have been playing the past couple nights and have actually been able to enjoy and dominate, so long as the servers and matchmaking work.

Yeah, Cory. When we get into a legitimate match with foes that don't glitch the WHOLE FREAKIN GAME, we absolutely destroy. I can smell prestige.
