There's a big NYC launch event in Union Square tonight. IW and some Microsoft people will be there, as well as some Yankees players, but fuck it. I'm not standing in line for Gamestop.

Any NYC Gaffers going to that?

Yea, Major seems to be having the time of his life.

does anyone know if there is a complete list of the guns that are NOT coming back in MW2? I would love to see it. I know the Skorpion isn't coming back... lol.

So, European Steam Account, says it'll only unlock on 12th November.
Was going to boycott, can't wait to try it.
If I get a key to activate on Steam, any chances I might be able to play it starting tomorrow?

Sorry for repost, but hit last post on previous page ._.

Dragonov and M14 got cut too.
 
Ok someone help me understand the ACOG in MW2. Instead of your scope being magnified, your entire screen is magnified about 1.5-2x(as far as I can tell). That's my guess after looking at some videos. Is that the right assessment or am I wrong? Just wondernig because it would be pointless to use the ACOG if you didn't get any magnification over the Holographic sight or red dot.

Nukes simply won't happen very often at all. If one out of every 20 games (and that's a very generous percentage) ends earlier than the predetermined end time thanks to a nuke... so what?

1) GETTING 25 kills takes a good chunk of time to begin with. So it's not like the match will end 2 minutes in.
2) If someone on the opposing team has a 25 kill streak, odds are strongly in favor of them being way up. In which case setting off the nuke is like a mercy kill.
3) I've played 8 hours of MP and haven't encountered one.

Well, if you are having that good of a game would you want to end it? Not sure if I would.

lol where is this from?

I've never seen it before, but I KNOW that's from an Eric Wareheim music video.

I'm really looking forward to this game, but I gotta wait until the weekend. I don't have the funds, but even if I did I wouldn't be willing to do the midnight thing considering how huge the lines are gonna be. Still gotta decide between PS3/360, though...

Looking at the MW and MW2 lists, I'll try to make a list here:

Not returning weapons:

Assault Rifles:
- G3
- G36C
- M14
- MP44

SubMachine Guns:
- Skorpion
- AK-74u

Light Machine Guns:
- M249 SAW
- M60E4

Sniper Rifles:
- M40A3
- Dragunov
- R700

Shotguns:
- W1200

Handguns:
- All are returning

Launchers:
- RPG-7

Enjoy :)

Yeah, mine's going to be absolutely packed. Going to suck waiting for a game I already have.

Same. Only that I won't be able to play until Thursday. :(
Staring at my sealed copy for 2 days is going to be pure torture.

Get the 360 version. And for the record, I like the PS3 more than the 360, and I'm still recommending the 360 version. I prefer the 360 controller with this type of game.
 
Seeing all these pics of long ass lines makes me glad I got my copy last week and I wasn't even HYPE for the game like everyone else here. :lol

Sad fact: I was more excited about getting MW2 before the rest of the general public rather then playing the game itself.

Question,

I read that PS3 version has NO install, yet the 360 version CAN be installed.

Anyone know if theres loading differences between the PS3 version and the installed 360 version?

I ask because even though i have all previous CODs on 360, I bought a PS3 Slim recently and I just wanna move my gaming over to the PS3, since multiplatform ports are becoming almost identical.

Here's the thing, I rarely play online. I want to know loading and performance differneces because I'll be playing mostly offline single palyer and spec ops.

I cant believe no website has commented on performance differences. I hope its because there are none.

Thanks for the add, PXG. I'll most likely end up getting it for my 360, I'll be playing the shit out of Left 4 Dead 2 so I might as well get Modern Warfare on the same system to make it my full time shooter box.
