BoredBozirini Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 I love MW2 ... it has the best graphics I've seen in a game ... the subtleties in the detailing etc is just phenomenal ... the scene where you're in the capital building and looking over Washington is IMMENSE! Don't tell me other games look better right now. They don't. MW2 is getting a lot of geek hate. It happens to all high rated games. The geeks come out in full force to slag the game off because they feel 'cool' or 'powerful' for going against the grain. MW2 is probably the best FPS game I have played. And I've played em all now. It may not be long enough, but no other game immerses you as much, no other game has the 'feel' that MW has ... the feel of the character movement, the guns etc ... it's perfect. Other games pale.There. Done. Lets see. Game with better graphics than MW2? Crysis, Killzone 2, Uncharted 2. Game with better warfare gameplay than MW2? Battlefield 2. Bette overall game than MW2? Half Life 2, Battlefield 2, and many many others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OOOOOOOO Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Lets see.Game with better graphics than MW2? Crysis, Killzone 2, Uncharted 2. Game with better warfare gameplay than MW2? Battlefield 2. Bette overall game than MW2? Half Life 2, Battlefield 2, and many many others. I disagree. I've done that on the 1v1 cage matches for a laugh. :pBatman, Uncharted 2, Killzone 2, Left 4 Dead 2 and Assassins Creed 2 all look a damn sight better. Really? REALLY?... REALLY?! Go play Half Life 2. The 'Really?' comment ... are you trying to be funny? Didn't work. And I own Half Life 2 ... and no offence, but HL2 is boring compared to MW2.

AbandonedTrolley Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 The one 'good' thing with MW2 graphics is that they are colourful compared to the likes of Killzone 2. Detailing is not as good though. But I would say it's a better single player game just WAY too short. But better graphics, Uncharted 2 blows it out the water, get on top of a high rooftop and take a look about :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbandonedTrolley Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Yeah, all those stunning low-res 2D cut-outs :p Hmmmmm think I only really saw one moment of that which was the rooftop section of the museum when you looked out when standing on a air duct. The rest look pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SYBINX Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Aye, it does lose the appeal very quickly. This game has to be the most random, the most luck based piece of casual-crap in a very long time! Yes, it may be harsh words but that's how I feel. There's way too much focus on having the right setup for the right situation at the right time - Back in the day where the player's skills, reaction times and knowledge of the maps that gave you the advantage, meaning lots of training would get you ahead - Now the game is 100% focused on having the right class, perk or attachment at the right time, even the most blind and useless player in the world can suddenly get a great round because he created the right class and got a lucky killstreak. It was bearable in Call of Duty 4, because it felt like a great first person shooter underneath with some variation sprinkled on top on the shape of perks. Now the game has been smothered in this game, one perk / Attachment more game changing than the other. So yes, it's fun for a week or two but the hype about games like Counter-strike was the sense, the game rewarded you for being good - MW2 rewards you for lucky choices, nothing else! So you don't think "I'm gonna boot up MW2 and have a night of fun", you think "Should I? Because it's either going to frustrate the hell out of me or give me a great experience" and personally, I don't want to make that choice when starting up a game. Plus with all this host advantage and stuff going around, even being able to aim properly is out the window ... And the consoles have that casual-tard minded aim-assist, so even the retarded kid next door can get a kill. So when the fun in trying out perks, weapons and attachments have been exhausted, the core of the game has nothing more to offer because it's being killed by the aforementioned. Thank God for that, pardon the expression, and I thought it was me... I agree there was more interaction in the first COD MW and it did feel like a proper FPS although the game is excellent and MP is pretty darn good but you do get a little bored with Single Player, which is the reason why I have bought a couple of games and will come back to it in a couple of weeks or even 2010. I do like the blurred vision when you are looking down the sights which is realist and accurate. Apart from that I would give it 10/10 but you do get bored after a couple of hours playing the game.

burtonmotion583 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Here goes my multiplayer gripe... Sorry in advance. :) It literally frustrates me to no end that this game allows you to use two shotguns, never mind them being ultra affective. I rarely die by someone shooting me in a gun battle, but I can't tell you how many times I've been shot in the back by some kid flanking me, then to re-spawn and immediately die again. I just feel like the skill is gone from this game. I loved Modern Warfare, and in all honesty I'm not bashing this game because I don't feel like it lives up to the standards of MW1, I just feel like MW1 had a much stronger multiplayer. I think these are legitimate gripes. The maps in the original had flow, most of them forced head on encounters with the opposing team, whereas MW2 is just so random. The recoil on the guns are gone, you can hold the trigger down and shoot lasers. Let's just take a quick look at what I think is the most ridiculous thing about this game. Marathon Pro, Lightweight Pro, Ninja Pro, Two Model 1887's, and a primary weapon with a heartbeat sensor. I play with some kid that uses this and it is completely over powered. The class balance in this game fails, hard. Just seeing someone with two shotguns running around the map destroying kids, even if they are on my team, is frustrating. You need no reaction time, no aim, and really, no skill. Don't get me started on riot shields. The positive aspect of this game, however, is that competitively it is fun. Playing MLG (Gamebattles) on Hardcore S&D is great, and I think the maps are set up better for that rather than Team Deathmatch. It might be just me, but casual play in this game is more frustrating than enjoyable. Anyway, my rant is over with. I would love to hear other people's opinions whether you agree or disagree with my post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Freeman Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Whats your problem with riot shields? Just stick some semtex on them or shoot his feet off and job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burtonmotion583 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Whats your problem with riot shields? Just stick some semtex on them or shoot his feet off and job done. I usually have regular frag grenades equipped, but thank you for the tip. My problem with the shield is that someone can crouch walk up to you, and slam you two times to your death if you don't have semtex. You're literally helpless unless you can time a frag to roll behind them and blow up. It just kinda boils down to the skill factor for me. In my opinion it really doesn't take a lot of skill to use a riot shield, but the reward is great. Just like the duel shotguns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well depending if I find some love for the MP I may end up keeping it. There are about 5-6 guys in work that keep telling me to give it more time. Just didn't find it that enjoyable though. As for the trophies, yeah I guess you are right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't mean jack **** to me but whoever does it lose any sort of integrity, can't possibly boast about his trophies on the forums either if the person did something like that - I'm against any form of cheating and glitching whether it be in games, to boost scores, get rewards or whatever.

Livin in a box Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Maybe people will get banned from going on the online after doing that hack as it is obvious- all the trophies will have been gained at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you need to loosen up a bit. And before you say anything, no, I have not done that glitch. I don't even own the game (only rented it to play online, it sucked, and I returned it).
