Remember there was no Beta. This could of possibly been avoided.

The problems are...

People make private games and then convert them into public games. Such as 18 people on rust in Hardcore TDM. The rounds never end also which leaves the games open. In the last 2 days 90% of my games were this. In one game I witnessed a AC130 with unlimted ammo on rust. The person racked up about 100 kills.

Also when they patched the Jav. glitch they broke the game and now we have unlimted ammo glitch.

This game has sold well over 5 million copies. They should be working 24/7 to get these problems fixed.

FourZeroTwo has already said they are testing a patch to fix these issues. What more do you want?

How do you know they aren't? Are you a software expert?

No. I'm a average consumer that paid for something and did not get what was expected. The problem is I can not return it as you can with normal merchandise.

A partial refund on my XBOX live account for starters.

Edit: I'll call Microsoft in a bit.

Why would MS refund your Live fee?

I'm aware what the glitches are, IW is also aware and is in the process of patching them.

Good god you people act like no game ever has had bugs before. The problems are getting patched, what is the problem exactly?

When you charge ?10 more than anyone else for a game, you haven't really changed since the previous game, you kind of expect it to work out of the box. :laugh:

What? jihad javelin patch was in certification for less than a week before it went live.

You don't think a week is a long time to allow a huge developer to push a simple patch that is pushing a lot of players over the edge :blink: ? I think that's way too long.

If a glitch in a game is "pushing you over the edge" then maybe a week off from playing would be a good idea.

No, glitches and bugs are annoying when you are trying to enjoy a game, it can easily push anyone over the edge as it has done with a huge percentage of the MW2 community. So try another angle to your trolling attempts.

Differing opinion = trolling!.

You guys are acting like the glitches are just being ignored by IW when they are actively testing and patching problems within an acceptable amount of time.

This game just fell victim to its' own hype.

I think people just expected more from this game as a whole, considering all that's been pumped into it. Not to have it bombarded with these huge bugs. Makes them seem a bit negligent from the start.

Don't include me in that "you guys" as I know IW are releasing patches but Microsoft, as I just stated, are holding back these patches for way too long which hurts the players.

I'd rather have a well-tested slower patch than a quickly released buggy one.

I hope that comment wasn't in regard to my comment about the Microsoft certification process as those are not related, as soon as a patch hits certification it's not being tested for game purposes, it's just being screened and tested that it won't break anything related to the live network, break rules, contain anything illegal etc.

6 days is not "way too long".

For releasing a simple patch to fix major issues with a game you play? Yes it is.

I'm with this guy, I love the game and all but if it's having this much of a profound effect on some of you it might be time to diversify your hobbies... and further more, 10 inch storgina.

Profound effect, you people make it sound like a murder was committed over this game :rofl:

Aren't people allowed to be annoyed any more without the local hippies crawling out of their tents, correcting and lecturing everyone

Have you been following the thread? Some are a little more than annoyed, in fact I can imagine sleepless nights spent tossing and turning. :laugh:

It's just humorous and I don't really care either way.

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com AI companies often rely on readily available internet content to train their chatbots and provide users with instant answers. This method of AI training is fast and relatively inexpensive, but using a website’s content without permission or compensation is not something publishers like to see, and this is exactly why Microsoft and OpenAI are now being sued. As reported by Bloomberg, a group of publishers that collectively own nearly 400 newspapers has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft. The coalition argues that the two companies scraped their content to build AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Copilot without paying any compensation. The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues that while AI products have generated billions of dollars in market value using publishers’ work, none of that value has been shared with the publishers. The plaintiffs are seeking statutory damages and injunctive relief for alleged copyright infringement and violations of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. “Defendants systematically and secretly crawled the Publishers’ websites—including content behind paywalls and other access restrictions—and copied the Publishers’ articles, stories, and other original works onto their own servers without authorization,” the complaint states. The publishers also described the AI boom as a “death knell for local journalism” if AI companies that scrape content for free are not held accountable. Former New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and his law firm, Platkin LLP, are representing the publishers. “Our models empower innovation, are trained on publicly available data, and are grounded in fair use,” OpenAI spokesperson Drew Pusateri told Bloomberg. This is not the first lawsuit involving the unauthorized use of publishers’ content by AI firms, but it is one of the largest coalitions ever formed against the free use of content by AI chatbots. In 2024, OpenAI and Microsoft also faced a similar lawsuit from eight newspapers that claimed AI products were benefiting from their content without permission.
