[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2


Recommended Posts

Does anybody consistently use the AK47? That was the only gun I used in the original MW but I hate how it is level 70 in MW2. Each time I hit level 70 I prestige so I never get to use it.

tried it yesterday for the 1st time. cant see why anyone would pick the ak47 over the scar to be honest

They were replaced with a lot of other tard-weapons to use

i have claymores on all my classes... except 1 sniper class and 1 famas class

what would u consider a tard alternative to claymores?

Maybe it's just me, or maybe the maps are more open but I have barely seen a claymore, like...maybe twice!! :s

They used to be EVERYWHERE in COD4, what happened? :laugh:

They're more widespread in Hardcore, it's because it's Equipment and not a perk. It replaces Grenades.

Then don't prestige? I never understood the whole prestige thing...

I used the AK alot, I find it very good.

Yeah I don't see the point in Prestige, having to unlock everything all over again seems stupid to me. Plus I love the AK, I use it a lot. That or the SCAR. More often I'm using an SMG class though like the UMP45 which is a great weapon silenced!

Back in the first Modern Warfare, I constantly told myself I wouldn't prestige - I then went prestige. I told myself I wouldn't do it again but I did.

It was actually quite nice to be 'forced' to use some of the lower level weapons so you didn't have a ton of choice, I was picking new weapons every other round

because I couldn't decide. Plus, it also makes you feel like the XP is going somewhere, gives you that extra drive to do some special moves etc. I couldn't stand watching my XP

going nowhere.

I think prestige is awesome and a fantastic idea.

Pretty much my exact same view and experience (Y)

I never prestiged in COD4, just didn't feel like it.

I do prestige in MW2 though. It's honestly not that bad.. If you do challenges, you can easily get back up to higher ranking with any weapons you usually use. I prestiged again the other night and played a couple of hours (barely) and was already back up to a 34. Cycle through your weapons and rank them up, do your challenges and rank up. ;)

Prestiging ain't got nothin' on me.

Which one is pointless? Prestigeing or not prestigeing? :laugh:

Answered. Why sacrifice all your unlocks and everything except for titles and emblems for a shiny new rank icon? :rolleyes:

UPDATE 11:20 PM: It turns out Activision may have showed their hand in this matter earlier today.

In an SEC filing made earlier today, Activision cited a human resources investigation into "into breaches of contract and insubordination by two senior employees at Infinity Ward."

Based on the information we currently have, at least one of those employees may have included Infinity Ward CTO Jason West. It's possible Vince Zampella is the other unmentioned employee.

"This matter is expected to involve the departure of key personnel and litigation," read the Activision's filing. "At present, the Company does not expect this matter to have a material impact on the Company."

Unlucky. Dance with the devil, expect to get burned.

A poster on Kotaku said that their royalty checks are due to be paid soon. Pretty damn low if true. No idea if it's true or not..but with Activision anything is possible.

Yeah it's low, could be a cloud with a silver lining. Hopefully they can kick-start something new and refreshing without having the sequel crazy Activision on their heels.

I was thinking about that royalty cheque thing. It doesn't really make sense unless Activision is wanting to be sued. Technically they could falsify sales records and risk the wrath of the government, but really, just to save maybe a couple million? I really doubt they would do it.

Also this whole publicity stunt thing makes no sense either. It won't dull the sales of Bad Company 2, nor will it encourage sales of MW2.

The only thing that does make sense is IW wanted to make something new and Activision, being the sequel company they are, didn't want them to.

Maybe Jason West got sick of being Bobby Kotick's lapdog. One of the reasons that these guys formed Infinity Ward in the first place was to get away from being shackled by EA. Out of the frying pan and into the fire?

    • 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.
