You like me, you really really like me!
Just finished the game, the ending felt unsatisfying but overall the campaign was awesome...
MW3 will probably take us into the invasion of Moscow

Weird! I played for like 6 hours last night after downloading the patch.
I guess this is those assholes way of getting people like me to play their shitty SP mode. :lol

He means the game looks like ass. I have to agree.
Some mp levels look like you are playing CS: Source. The single player looks like ass as well with no dynamic objects to be found anywhere. I was shooting at some cardboard boxes just now and apparently they are rpg proof.
Im quite sure mw1 looked much better in single and multiplayer than mw2.

SP is not that good yet ( I am still at the start , 4th level ) , MW1 first levels were better imo.
it's a meme , born during Killzone 2 release when people blamed Guerrilla for all and every PSN or online problems and asked them to fix the problem , "Fix this Shit Guerrilla!" was all over the GAF .

Just got my PS3 copy. Gonna play sp later. Probably won't hit up the multiplayer until the weekend so whatever issues there are, I hope they're fixed by then.

Quoted for the people with PSN problems. It's not 1.02, it's the PSN presence server, apparently.tomi123 said:

Looks like PS3 trophies are fixed, about 4 people on my friend list are going through single player and getting them.

re: all the people who are praising the storytelling
you guys actually know what the fuck is going on? the 'story' is amazingly incoherent. it jumps from so many points of views, so many locations, there's really no narrative flow.
i love the scenarios, dont get me wrong, but they're just strung together haphazardly. IW even admitted that themselves. they dictated the order of the missions by how fun it is to play, with the storytelling taking a backseat.
i guess it was the same for the first game, but i was so caught up on the 'modern warfare' aspect to care. this time around it just seems like they're throwing military jargon to distract you from the fact that the plot is wack.

The game definitely doesn't look like ass; COD4 still looks good, and it's about on par with that, maybe a tad better, so it's definitely not an ugly game. I do agree that the bar has been raised, and it doesn't quite match up to some of the best looking games out there now, but for 60FPS it looks good enough.
I don't think the soundtrack is getting enough credit. It is phenomenal! I especially love this track; it gives me goosebumps around the 2:34 mark:

This is so pathetic on part of IW who are considered one of the top devs in the industry. How could they fucking let this game out when they knew the online was almost unplayable. I understand that online games always have launch issues but at least you can play it. Are they so arrogant that they can't have a beta fot their games to iron out the most basic online issues? How come they never have a beta or drop a demo for their games? How come no media fucking called on them when the MP is broken but I have seen media not even considering to review a game when its MP was broken? Why the exclusive treatement?
I am waiting till friday for a proper fix to come for the PS3. If that does not work I will return my copy. I have plenty of other better games to play for now and get it for cheaper later when they fucking fix their shit!

Yeah, you'd have to be pretty blind and stupid not to notice it does look quite a bit better. It's amazing what IW has managed to squeeze out of such an ancient underlying engine.

Anyone else had troubles installing through Steam?
It downloaded nicely (took over 4 hours, but still) and now when I try to launch it, it says
'could not load Localization.txt'
Please make sure Modern Warfare 2 is run from the correct location.
And yes, I did buy the game, I'm not a pirating smuck.

No. I don't care about the platform I'm playing the game on, as long as it's an fps game, I love em.Jonsoncao said:
I understand that fps games and the PC go hand in hand. Better graphics, mouse look. But I've never owned a PC capable of playing games decently.
Plus pretty much all my life I've played games on consoles, so that's what I'm comfortable with.
Not to say I'll never play games on PC if I finally get a PC capable of playing the latest games nicely. If the opportunity comes up for me, sure I'll try.
Even if there was a beta, it probably would have been for the 360 only anyway, like the first Modern Warfare...A.R.K said:

Foliorum Viridum said:The first level infeels cheap on Veteran. Maybe it's because it's a solo mission, but Jesus, there's too many people on rooftops.Brazil
Eh. I feel rusty. I've conquered every other COD game on Veteran, and this will be the same. Usually I'm not a masochist when it comes to games anymore but with COD it's something to do with pride. I am genuinely proud of my 1000/1000 on COD4 because of Mile High Club on Veteran... :lol
I felt the same way. The game suggested Hardened to me after the course run-through, but with work and shit now, I just don't have the tolerance or patience for Hardened, even though I ran through COD4 on Hardened and 3-4 missions on Vet.
But goddamn, even on regular, I thought the first 1 mission with the humvee and the mission in the Brazil slums were REDICULOUS. I thought to myself, thank god I didn't choose Hardened, I would've just quit playing. My face was full of strawberry jam throughout those levels.

It is PS3 only,so I guess my $50/year to MS is money well spent :lol
The ps3 invite/party system sucks. It's extremely clunky having to hit the PS button, waiting for that to load up, scroll over to new messages, click that, then click the invite. Sony really needs to streamline their processes more.
As far as the overall feel of the game, I find the game decent, but honestly, I thought it would be better. This game doesn't even really feel better than COD4. Just different. The gameplay is very smooth and the lobby system is a lot better. I also love the fact snipers can't hole themselves up in a little spot and plant claymores all over the place. The lack of juggernaut also is great.
What I am missing is the visceral feel. The guns don't seem to have that rip that they did in MW1. The new, big stages are a mixed bag as well. I wouldn't mind them if there were more than 6 people per team, but a lot of the matches it can take forever to find someone. Sometimes I have a great game, but I just don't feel the excitement that I did in MW.

They suggested Casual for me because once I shot two civilians I was overly careful. :lol I decided to go through on Regular first time though because the cinematic moments are really lost on you if you're dying every 20 seconds and have to replay it over and over.AHappyPanda said:
I nailed Brazil now though. Woot.
