[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2


Recommended Posts

Having played over the weekend online for about 15 hours...I gotta say for my first FPS on a console I am getting the hang of the controls :D Going to pick up Killzone 2 at some point....can't believe I hadn't tried these games on my PS3 cause I thought "nothing can beat a mouse and keyboard"...

Must admit I'm liking the online play and have some great matches, even though I am rubbish and only a rank 16 just now :p

Pics like these make me laugh and remind me why I'm not buying this game (Squires is hosting).

IWNet is ****ing terrible outside of America by the sounds of it (as expected). Another Australian video review says that the game will pick a US host even if there's 1 US player and 8 other Aussies. :|

Its unfortunate, as no dedicated server and good bandwidth does cause trouble. But these things cost alot of money. I can see the only wahy of getting these is through a subscription.

But for me, I've not had that much trouble, I've had a few games be a bit laggy at the start.... *hugs his 50Mb with 1.5Mb upload*

I really enjoyed the snow mobile race in Spec Ops - Epic fun (Y)

Got a question here, yesterday me and a friend wanted to play some Hardcore TDM. As I'm the only one high enough rank to select Hardcore I had to be lobby "host". Each time I clicked the game-mode, any game-mode in fact, my game crashed with "iw4mp.exe". Now I just tried alone and got the same crash error! This hasn't happened before.

Anyone read about this particular issue, is this a local problem or a general problem with the game? It's really annoying =/ We tried like 8-9 times with me starting the lobby and it crashed every single time! He tried hosting once and game started fine, the game after I was able to find one match, then it started crashing again after that - Really weird.

Really? I though it was kinda lame and the only fun part was when going downhill really fast

Vehicle missions in COD just generally suck because the physics and steering is awful :p

Oh I agree about the steering...the steering of the snow mobile was atrocious but the speed and the adrenaline was cool

Man, I love how all of the perks are actually viable. In the first game, some of them were never even worth considering. In this one, they can all make a difference.

Got my first remote view for getting the winning kill :cool:

In that game I had a stupid kill where it triggered a billion messages...headshots, kills from hip, kills with steady head, kills with stopping power, payback, revenge, stopping a kill streak, recovering from a death streak...it distracted me so much I got melee'd :angry:

Bad timing and alignments then :p

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Hello, Paul. Thanks for the editorial. It was interesting. I'm going research more into the app and its concept. Of course, if you know me at all, you know that I'd say your articles needs some editing! I a;ways do, don't I? For instance, the article occasionally mentions a concept before defining it, e.g., relays.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic says that the U.S. government has finally allowed it to restore Claude Mythos 5. But of course, there's a catch. The rollout is again for a limited set of U.S. organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. The company announced this in a post on X (formerly Twitter). This does not mean that Anthropic's latest frontier models are back to normal availability. Fable 5, which was a tuned version of Mythos 5 for public release, remains unavailable. Anthropic said that it is still working with the government to expand Mythos 5 access and make Fable 5 available again, but there's no timeline. Reports from Bloomberg and Reuters say that this decision actually came through a letter from the U.S. Commerce Department. According to Reuters, this would allow more than 100 companies and institutions access to Mythos 5. Reuters also reported that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s letter removes the need for export licenses for approved companies’ non-US citizen employees, as well as Anthropic’s own non-US citizen employees, while restrictions remain for organizations outside the approved list. Anthropic isn't alone with this kind of controlled rollout. OpenAI's newest model family, GPT 5.6, was announced just yesterday, but isn't available for everyone yet. In its announcement, OpenAI also said that access to these models is initially limited to a select group of trusted partners and organizations, with broader access planned later this year. Both of these cases show that frontier AI launches are no longer just ordinary product releases and more like slow and vetted deployments shaped heavily by the U.S. government.
