but I am a sheep
So there is no saved films or anything like that? The more I think of it there isn't really anything cool physics based in this series so no real point. All video clips would just be pretty boring, even screenshots would be pretty boring.

from that it is preaty easy to conclude that the game will work just like E:TW by linking the game to your steam acc otherwise it doesn't make sense to include steam anti chat if only a few people will use steam.
it's also used for online authenticaton which basicly means linking your game to your steam acc

sk3tch said:Thanks for the tips. I was aware about the pre-order bonuses and frankly do not care that much. I mean, obviously a $20 gift card is nice - but to me I would rather have the PC version of the game versus console (now that my gamebox is working and solid) and I do not want a box and disc floating around...I love digital distribution and I already have CoD4, CoD:WaW in my Steam account and like the idea that I can simply reinstall/install at will when I need to.
I did some add'l research and you are right - 2 day delay plus no one seems to have an idea on the Steam forums as to when it will be available to download...ugh. Oh well.
And yes, $59.99 sucks. P2P multi-player sucks. Etc. But that would be the same case on PS3 or 360 (of which I have both) - perfer to play my gamebox. All three are connected to my 50" plasma so the couch argument is nil.
It'd still be in your Steam list if you bought it retail, as its a Steamworks title. You're free to throw out that box, once you've registered it on Steam.

It could be a Spec Ops mission?
Didn't we hear a while back that IW4 was going to be a space-shooter? I wonder if that was one of those "ideas that didn't make it into the main story but became a Spec Ops mission."

Seriously, I think my mind would have been blown had I discovered that for myself in the game.Nardonicus said:
Ahhh, I hope there are still big surprises left for me in the game. I already learned about the controversial sequence you can play through (although I didn't watch the clip).
And I would have seen this ad on tv anyway sooo...
Nardonicus said:
Yeah, it's a pretty big spoiler.
You're in the body of an astronaut tethered to the International Space Station watching a nuke explode on US soil. The explosion is so immense the it pretty much destroys the ISS and kills you. It's a unique point of view for this event in the story line.

Well if they put it in the tv ad, I dont think it could be that big of a spoiler. Then again, who knows.
What the fuck are you carrying on about? I have the PS3 version preorderd. Also when I play the PC version its with my friends. They all have PC's and we do LANS every year. You comments are stretching though aren't they. There are dweebs in every online community.ghst said:
They can with permission. Gamestop head honchos have to ask Mall head honchos, drinks and money is passed around blah blah. No joke I've been to a launch at a EB/Gamestop in Rockefeller plaza here in NY when the rest of the building was closed.corkscrewblow said:

Yep, it was. Why do that during a commercial of all things.
The nuke going off was the best part of the original.
Does anyone else think multiplayer looks too complicated this time around? There seems to be too many options. Maybe I'll feel differently once I play the game.

here is a good quality Search and Destroy Vid...

Well, a guide contains a lot more info that no manual ever covers. Of those 4 pages, I bet at least 2 contain text about warranties & other stuff no one ever reads. It makes sense from a business point of view of course.Tzeentch said:How can their partners sell those useless game guides if the manual actually explains anything? Use your head man!
KilgoreTrout said:
Yeah I do. I am just a little worried that games will be focused gunships, missiles, and so on rather than having them as 'secondary' components as they are in COD4. I am excited, however, about the new perks. But I could go without things like sentry guns, heartbeat sensors, and shields. But looking at the positive side it gives players more opportunity to figure out what 'works' for them.
All in all I'm excited for it and I'm sure I'll play the shit out of this game. I know there's been a lot of trepidation about the changes made for MP but in the end I think that the game will be a solid upgrade and a fuck-ton of fun. At least I hope...........

So uh, didn't they patch the "quick fire controllers" problem in MW1? Our store just got in some official MW2 controllers with quick fire triggers on them.
Weird.
Weird.

MW2 retail get. Hardened/prestige editions won't be available till near release date. Store in Venice, Ca selling early. Anyone who lives around the Santa Monica area probably knows the store. To protect them, I won't give out any info. Will post pics later.

Good vid. Player did so well, other than wasting his predator missile on the roof of a building.

Woah, hold on, I thought they said they took that stuff out?
One more question, did the game have good AI, or did they spam grenades a lot and know exactly were you were at all times.

Friend in Colorado just got his copy too. Looks like most retailers are receiving them today. If you know a mom & pop local game shop, give them a call cause most are selling the game early it seems.

Is there any pics or vids of the new ACOG? I was looking around youtube and found this on the Intervention. It's not the normal scope nor is it the holographic scope that you mentioned.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwF11lfuBMI&feature=related#t=0m13s
It zooms about 2x and the scope takes up your entire screen just like the ACOG. But fortunately that stupid arrow is gone and now we have 2 intersecting lines, which should make targeting easier, especially for sniper rifles. Anyways is this the new ACOG or is it another scope?
