[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2


Recommended Posts

I did it instore, they just wrote it in a notepad, only 1 other person on the list :laugh:

It was a brand new store, so I don't think they really knew what they were doing. I might try another Asda later.

I just rung that Asda again, and they said they will just phone me when it comes in.

just rang, too late, last date to pre order was 3rd

I canceled, but I tucked that $65 away because I may change my mind next week. Guess I'll wait to see what the early impressions are.

I'm more concerned with how IW.net handles and performs on the PC. I'm fine with using a Steam group to game with friends, but I'm not fine with taking part in a $60 beta test of IW.Net. I'll let someone else handle that.

Good article here regarding the changes IW made & video response from 402.

Do you guys think this will be sold out everywhere on release day? I am just planning on buying it in town on the day it is released but I'm worrying that I won't be able to find it anywhere.

Probably the big places, malls etc

But if you can find a small shop somewhere

I wouldn't be worried as I am going for Midnight Launch. But just check around Target, Best Buy, Walmart should have them.

I would say it depends on the platform.

Xbox 360 might be tough to find, PS3 may not be as tough, and the shelves should be fully stocked with PC versions.

COD:MW2 for ?30 via Littlewoods

Register for an account, order COD:MW2 and use voucher code: ZQ266

No idea what their delivery times are like but it's worth a look for those who prefer to save money than get game first.>

They use either Royal Mail(Priority) or HDNL for delivery.

Is that the ?15 off first order code?

I won't be able to use it, as I already used it to buy 2100 MS points for ?7. Also if it goes through, they have been known to claim the money back in the future, due to fraudulent use of a voucher code(if it isn't your first order).

Someone just tweeted that there's no hardcore mode. That's not true right?

That's a lie, I watched a video stream of someone playing the leaked copy and 'Hardcore' is an option that's selectable in options. Also it's the name of a playlist or two.

:D

i really hope thats not true ..i love hardcore S&D and headquarters , it's the 2 game modes i play most

I believe that is the case on PS3, but 360 and PC will be missing hardcore for certain gametypes. I honestly can't remember and it's to tough to find the info again with all the other MW2 hate going on.

PC Gamers are SCREWED!

Poor PC gamers. First they hear the soul-crushing news that Modern Warfare 2 won't support dedicated servers, and now Infinity Ward has broken their hearts yet again. During a Best Buy online chat, the developer fired off a string of bad news, affirming a 9-vs-9 player limit, the inability to kick players from ranked matches and a lack of console commands. Ars Technica has laid out the full list of disappointments, if you've got the stomach for it.

We feel for those of you on the PC side, but largely because you haven't yet had your spirits broken like your console brethren. We don't even notice having our dreams shattered any more (in fact, truth be told, we think we're starting to like it).

    • Do you live in the U.K? Do any of the people here that are against the UK leaving the E.U, live in the U.K? If not then why are you bothered? If you do live here then it is a different thing . Brexit was a good idea, should have done it years before, it was done badly, but the idea was good. You are saying the same thing as remainers do, oh we did what Putin wanted, we listened to the lies and Farage. I hate Farage and never believed most of what he said, certainly did not believe the £350m a week for the NHS. But we did pay a lot of money to the E.U and yes some of it came back, but what is the point of paying it out for only some of it to come back? Get out of the E.U, no money to them and in theory we can use the money to do things in the country. I said in theory, but our governments are a total and complete waste of space. No matter what colour rosette they wear. You and others say it was a mistake and yet the two main parties in the U.K are not looking at rejoining the EU, I wonder why that is? I was not tricked by anyone. Makes no odds now, we are out and have been for 10 years, what we need is a decent government to run the country. All they do is shout at each other like a load of kids and seems to do nothing and make this country more into a police and nanny state. Getting more like China all the time.

    • Yeah... The root of my comment, ostensibly, is how to spin the story via the actual technical merits of the solution! * Decentralized (aka federated) solution with built-in encrypted ephemeral message transport, * Transport via Relays (intermediary servers) with no message archival, * Second configurable pathway are actual email servers (if DNS records are programmed accordingly) via IMAP protocols carriage, * "Chat-over-Email" is the design pattern adopted; it can either leverage full-blown Email Server (must use the INBOX folder) to exchange all received messages/edits/reactions (so be weary of notifications overloads) [best practice is creating a separate email acct used explicitly for federated chat purposes!] or leverage its built-in Relay Server mechanism which actually resides on-device (by default but can be configured otherwise), * By virtue of be a decentralized/federated model, all other intermediary servers who may pass-along messages (while the recipient's final relay/device is inaccessible) cannot snoop on the messages due to the encrypted nature of contents. The intermediaries may, however, analyze the metadata due to the simple fact that routing mechanisms require hints for relay destinations. Unfortunately, whomever is posting about DeltaChat across socials are misleading with "zero metadata" claims -- especially when the Relays (according to their own technical documents) mandate the addition of chat-version metadata and other decorations in order to actually transport any message. -- Based on this summary, I'd prefer if they'd better dual-path message transport (email server add-in, federated relay engine) rather than patch-on email protocols to existing federated social media frameworks. They're frankensteining something rather than extending widely-deployed technology stacks.
    • Decentralized search result anonymization...
    • Russia invaded Crimea, so not sure what you are getting at. Are you saying that the E.U is like what the USSR was? What is wrong with wanting control over your own country? i bet Trump would not stand by and allow Canada to control the U.S.
