Thread: Modern Warefare 2 - No Dedicated Servers

It was inevitable someone would bring this issue up here lol. I’m sure you’ve all heard the recent announcement that no dedicated servers will be included with cod4 modern warfare 2.

.This means an 16 man player limit
.no clan support
.no mod, mapping support
.no control of what server you choose
.bad peer to peer ping
.charging for dlc map packs

I, like many of other pc gamers have signed the petition and am refusing to buy the game in any form whether it be console or PC. I just wanted to know if any of you guys were planning on buying it and if you are going to after this recent announcement.

None what so ever, Infinity ward control everything now.

F that. Petition Signed.

tbh, I wasn't going to buy the game anyway.

I'll be getting Bad Company 2, MW2 seems to have stood still with game features and will therefore play very similiar to MW1. It's like buying every Call of Duty game or every SIMS addon. Why bother? You play the first you've played them all.

At least with BC2 the destruction has been improved massively and that will really change the gameplay. From my early tests with Crysis, I know how brilliant destructable assets can be and how much fun it can be to blow them to pieces.

Gamers need to wise up and buy games that actually push the genre forward rather than simply buying skinned games. Otherwise we'll end up with MW15.

will bad company 2 be for pc?

And 'Dice' confirmed bad company 2 will have dedicated servers for the PC version. Im also getting bad company 2 instead of modern warefare 2 .

Just watched some trailers.. Bad Company 2 looks amazing! can't wait.

Some new info from the modern warfare front. Infinity ward have announced maximum player limit will be 9v9 (1 although this sounds small in comparison to the 64 player capabilities of the first game the maps of modern warefare 2 are smaller and more well suited to 9v9 games anyway.

Also IW stated dlc will still be free for the pc version, which is against speculation that the purpose of introducing iwnet pvp system was to force people to pay for dlc on the pc version.

I’m kind of considering still buying it, but if anyone likes giant 64 player servers and clan matches, do not buy it.
