COD Modern warfare 2 NEW MAP PACK

[Iconsting]

Actually dying in MW2 ALWAYS occurs due to shitty spawns and overpowered weapons. Skill rarely has anything to do with dying in this game.

If you actually read what I was talking about, you would know that I was talking about the campaign mode.

It's your generic boring summer blockbuster. I'd love it if you actually stated what was good about the story tho. Also, the campaign lasts no more than 4 to 5 hours. If that in your eyes justifies 60 bucks then you have extremely low standards.

It's true, I do have low standards, but remember that campaign isn't the only aspect of a game. As an FYI, I still like the multiplayer whether it's buggy or not. It's this strange new thing called "Fun".

The Co-Op mode does not make up for a broken multiplayer and a shitty campaign.

No it doesn't. Too bad it still has a decent campaign and the multiplayer is still, you know, fun.

Oh come on. Even the most moronic fanboy aknowledges the fact that Modern Warfare 2 is in no way realistic. The way the guns handle is a pretty fucking thumbs up to arcade First Person Shooters.

Completely realistic? Lies. In no way realistic? Also lies.

Fucking Infinity Ward. Release the map editor and let talented people create their own maps. Fucking greedy bastards. No, there's no way I'm paying them anything ever again.

In an interview with Infinity Ward's 'some guy to do with the community', Activision control pricing, not Infinity Ward. That doesn't excuse how outrageously expensive the maps are though. I shall not pay for them. Ever.

 

[Bek359]

I suppose the operative words there are "in a realistic FPS". Plot twists that make no sense upon further inspection (seriously, why did Price kill Ghost and the other guy? They didn't

it wasn't Captain Prince it was general shepard who killed Ghost and Roach and almost killed Soap and Prince at the end of the game

Sorry, meant to say Shepard. The characters were all so unmemorable that I can't keep their names straight.

If you actually read what I was talking about, you would know that I was talking about the campaign mode.

Well then the guys comment was true. Through the entirety of the campaign mode my deaths occurred entirely due to being shot at from an unknown location.

I still like the multiplayer whether it's buggy or not. It's this strange new thing called "Fun".

Fun? You're calling one of the most buggy, moronic, unbalanced multiplayer on the entire fucking planet "fun"? You don't have low standards. You have NO standards at all.

Too bad it still has a decent campaign

WHAT'S decent about the campaign? Is it the moronic plot twists? Or those awesome plot holes? Maybe it's the incoherent blabber you hear the characters spout OR that awesome "summer blockbuster awesomeness" it seems to try and pull off.

and the multiplayer is still, you know, fun.

I find it SO funny that whenever fanboys are at a corner they will immediately ignore every argument against their shit and simply call "well it's fun". It fills my heart with joy.

Completely realistic? Lies. In no way realistic? Also lies.

I guess you forgot to mention this in your first comment but hey, let's play your game. What's realistic about Modern Warfare 2?

gameplay=crap, new maps= look crap, old returns=better than all of mw2 maps put together. still not gettin it though, 1200 msp is fuckin ridiculous, the most expensive download ive ever seen bar GoW2 "all fronts" which gave u all the map packs + an extra chapter in the story which made it worth the price

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Maybe it's a bit expensive, but it does look good ( I really haven't encoutered most of the problems that people keep bitching about, and I'm hardly a talented player). If it were cheaper then I might consider it, because the game in general is damn good fun.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Crash was better than any map in MW2 so it'll be nice to see it back.

Actually... think I'll just go play COD4 again instead.

 

[omega 616]

it wasn't Captain Prince it was general shepard who killed Ghost and Roach and almost killed Soap and Prince at the end of the game

Not to be nit picky but it's Price, not Prince.

The multi player isn't fun, it's frustrating. whether it be people not playing the game type (looking after there precious K/D rather than capturing points in domination) or people using weapons that they know are over powered or noob tubing the map up.

The plot of MW2 is about as believable and realistic as a James Bond film, I am not much of a physicist but I am pretty sure an EMP can not blow a space station up.

It's also amazingly short, other games can cram in great graphics and a long single player (oblivion for example) so if they can do it then IW can.

The rangers and '87s, bullets disappearing after you die, bullets traveling round corners, tele-knifing (aka commando) are all unrealistic things.

It's not timesplitters but it isn't the most realistic shooter ever.

On topic, paying more than any other game for a sub standard game, then asking us to pay a ludicrous amount for a few new maps is a slap in the face.

(all the maps are new to me, I know some are redone from number four though.)

 

[Ironic Pirate]

i didnt waste my money on buying that game in the first place!

What makes you think it was a waste of money? Even if the multiplayer did leave much to be desired, that doesn't change the fact that the campaign mode has one of the best stories ever seen in a realistic FPS and the co-op mode was equally as entertaining. Maybe you should play the game before you make statements like that, eh?

what the... the story was completely retarded and the singleplayer was just bad. dying 500000 times from enemys you cant see unless you die the require 500000 times to figure out where youre being shot from. and the story is just a rip of of red dawn mixed with blackhwak down with mission briefings stolen from the intro to battlefield 2

The argument of getting killed a lot isn't a very solid one, that's a result of a lack of skill on the part of the player. As for the story, I've never seen Black Hawk Down, but I have seen Red Dawn and I must say that "RUSSIANS ARE INVADING AMERICA!" is not a blatant ripoff. Also, How could it have stolen the mission briefings from Battlefield 2? MW2 not only came first, but Call of Duty 4 had those same mission briefings. If anything, Battlefield 2 ripped of Call of Duty

After reading a summary of the plot of Black Hawk Down, I notice that this isn't a blatant ripoff either. In fact, it has little to do with MW2 at all.

Are you thinking of Bad Company 2? Because that is very different from Battlefield 2, which came out before MW.

I guess you forgot to mention this in your first comment but hey, let's play your game. What's realistic about Modern Warfare 2?

I can't say I haven't had similar encounters, but guess what? That's called flanking, and it's an effective military strategy that's used all the time.

Unbalanced? What, because the guns are overpowered, and by the way, when all of the guns are "Overpowered", none of them are, that makes the game unbalanced? Also, I remind you that most multiplayer games, if not all of them are buggy when they're first released. It hasn't been patched yet, so it's like me flaming TF2 for making the direct hit impossible to avoid getting killed so easily by or the ambassador back when it had a broken hitbox. Once Valve patched it up, everything was great.

What argument was there? You said the Co-op didn't make up for the campaign, I countered that you didn't give the campaign or the multiplayer enough credit.

Plotholes? the story did a pretty good job of making it as straightforward as possible. You're probably referring to the cliffhanger at the end, but really, can you even accuse a game about that anymore?

Modern warfare 2 is realistic in terms of the strategies to kill the enemy working with the strategies the enemy has to kill you (Such as camping, as much as I hate to admit.) and I've seen a lot of complaints about this one, including Yahtzee, the characters you play as actually die, which people are somehow angry about, like they're surprised that people are dying IN A WAR!

I know it doesn't matter what either of us argue beyond this point because You'll still register my points as stupid fanboy ignorance and I'll register yours as biased overeggagerations.

 

[AndyFromMonday]

I can't say I haven't had similar encounters, but guess what? That's called flanking, and it's an effective military strategy that's used all the time.

Because when I got shot I did not look around to see if someone flanked me right, right?! Wrong.

Unbalanced? What, because the guns are overpowered, and by the way, when all of the guns are "Overpowered", none of them are

Yes. Also, here's a list of overpowered weapons in MW2:

- ACR;
- Scar;
- the Glock's akimbo;
- akimbo P90's;
- noob tube anything.

Also, I remind you that most multiplayer games, if not all of them are buggy when they're first released.

It's been 4 months. 4 MONTHS since launch. You'd think IW would at least start listening to the community already.

What argument was there? You said the Co-op didn't make up for the campaign, I countered that you didn't give the campaign or the multiplayer enough credit.

And I countered by stating there WAS no credit to give the campaign or the multiplayer. If the multiplayer and campaign have any redeeming factors then DO SAY SO.

Plotholes? the story did a pretty good job of making it as straightforward as possible. You're probably referring to the cliffhanger at the end, but really, can you even accuse a game about that anymore?

Modern warfare 2 is realistic in terms of the strategies to kill the enemy working with the strategies the enemy has to kill you (Such as camping, as much as I hate to admit.)

Please give a coherent definition of what you think realism in gaming means.

and I've seen a lot of complaints about this one, including Yahtzee, the characters you play as actually die, which people are somehow angry about, like they're surprised that people are dying IN A WAR!

Thumbs up for incoherent randomness.

Check the store, a new map pack is being released Tuesday, and they have more in the making. The new map pack makes Laguna Presa Rush and, I wanna say Arica Harbor but I may be wrong, is being converted into conquest(its a rush-to-conquest I know that). As far as I know its gonna cost money but I may be wrong, and If I am I apologize and take back anything I said. And it's not like their making completely new maps, no, they are just changing the game type. So basically, we are getting the same damned maps just refurbished. And Laguna Presa Sucks.

 

[Adorann]

I never bought MW2, and I'm glad I didn't. Activision is obviously pushing the price to see how much they can make. Even if they don't get many sales, they'll just drop the prices more and more.

I think these prices are too high and people should try to resist purchasing it until Activision offers something better.

 

[cpnichol]

I didn't buy MW2 because IW decided to make the game worse (PC only) just so they could sell map packs later on. All those lies about IWNet being awesome with no one cheating, ever, this is the reason for it, so you can give them more money for a few maps. Never liked overgrown either.

I'm sure everyone will queue up to give them more money, making this the new financial model for games.

you got that VIP code for store access to get the first pair free, AS WELL AS ALL FUTURE ONES, because DICE has specifically stated that they don't want to divide a playerbase by having paid mappacks. so for now the maps are adapted for other modes, but its reasonable to assume some classic ones will be made from ground up.

also, if you're going to trim down a chain of quotes, just snip your own shit next time, please.
its like 4 lines.
its annoying to see -snip- then arguments which make me have to check back to what I originally posted

Well then I was wrong, and I apologize. Not for the the snip thing though, its not that hard to open a new tab I think you'll live.

 

[WaywardHaymaker]

I would buy it because it contains Crash and Overgrown, my two favorite maps from CoD 4.

HOWEVER, I do not play MW2. I don't have fun being Quick-scoped, Drop-shot, or playing in those God-fucking-damned ten million times speed games. Not my cup of ass. In fact, I don't have a cup of ass, I prefer tea in my cup, thank you very much.

 

[Holty07]

Should we just rename this thread to "what do you hate about MW2"? It seems to have turned into a *****-fest about the game rather than whether we'll get the maps or not.
