rajputwarrior Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Extremely well done? Well sure if you don't consider: - The plot and the gaping black holes accompanying it. The levels that were an inferior 'greatest hits' developed by what appears to be managers- "Hey they liked this bit from CoD4, mind making that level again then C&Ping the same formula a few times to pad it out? Thanks." - The game is looking very long in the tooth - The sound quality being shoddy in comparison to other shooters - They STILL haven't managed to evolve the game past the same few set pieces and gimmicks. Then sure, ****ing amazing game. In regards to MP: People are stupid. People bought Wii Fit. I think that's my quota of MW2 bashing done for this week. :F yeah it was short, plot holes? well obviously that how sequels come in. You want plot holes. go play a squaresoft game... the sounds in this game is AMAZING. play it with surround sound with good speakers then come back to us. Yes the single player was not as good as MW1 or as hard, but it was still pretty entertaining. The the multiplayer is second to none. It's sooo much fun.

I know because I use a ?90 pair of Sennheiser headphones. Team Fortress 2 has clearer, less muddy audio! Don't start me on the MP either.

I don't know what version of the game you are running but this was the 360 version. Hans Zimmer himself made the music...

timster Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 damn damn damn there goes my MW3 prediction :( Modern Warfare 3 will probably come in 2011. They should do a future war .... with aliens. ... there's already a game like that and it's called Halo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will crack on you on the this certain spot above the two screws that hold the adjuster together. Happens to all of them and same witht he demo that was at futureshop. It's a known issue with them, happened after taking them off my head gently (i babied those things). Exchanged them for the srh840s. don't sound as good (bass wise) but are cleaner and can take a beating. Great build quality on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only cost me ?45 in total. They sound excellent, they look good, but I had to send my first pair back after just a couple of months, due to the cable going faulty. After trying out several different headphones, I eventually opted to get a replacement pair of SRH240s. I've had them for about two months now with no problems. In the event that they do go wrong however, I've got a pair of Koss PortaPros now as my backup pair. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what version of the game you are running but this was the 360 version. I think was intending with the fake sounds that would be like sethos shaking a peanut in a tin (:p) gun sound effects and stuff Either way even though i've had enough of this modern warfare fictional garbage mess IW have made i'll give this game the benefit of a the doubt and give it a shot hopefully they can make it at least somewhat long and be historically accurate. Only if they don't include a russian campaign of storming the reichstag again for a 3rd time then i won't need to put my hand through my face. Would be good if they include a boot camp with full metal jacket movie style training too. Have to give it though to treyarch for at the end of the day at least they're sticking to the roots of call of duty and keeping it focused on historical places/events unlike infinity ward who seem to enjoy making all sorts of fictional rubbish like afghanistan that bares more resemblance to Iraq.

Spookie Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 then you have crappy headphones/sound card man Nope. Sound card is fine. Headphones are audiophile quality. What I mean, for example, is the reverb doesn't sound correct/missing entirely when firing a gun in doors, shouts and screams are unaffected by the environment and the gun shots sound very generic. Music is good of course but it sounds like it was playing off a tape! ;/ To keep this on topic: I hope they improve it for CoD n'th. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's my quota of MW2 bashing done for this week. :F Bearing in mind that the first Modern Warfare proved to be very popular, basing its successor on the same formula should come as no surprise to anyone. The original had and still has tremendous replay value and kept me engrossed for hours at a time. While i admit Modern Warfare 2 has not quite achieved the same effect, i found the overall experience thoroughly enjoyable. As for the sound quality. Personally i have had no such problem.

g~man Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 best news if true maps... from jungle, to open terrain to urban cities - perfect guns... from ww2 rifles like mosin nagant to m-16, comes down to balancing, lets hope the ak47 isnt another mp40. forget realism and just balance the guns please, i like the variety of playstyles in WaW killstreaks... forget care (camper) packages and im happy. uav at 3 (can be shot down by rpg's), airstike at 5, chopper/dogs at 7, carpet bombs at 9, multiple helicopters at 15, napalm bombs at 25... theres many possibilities here in tryarch we trust! WaW is still the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nashy Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 normally I would agree, but with the complete farce of MW2, my favourite CoD developer may switch now What? MW2 is one of the, if not the greatest COD released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahhell Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 What? MW2 is one of the, if not the greatest COD released. LOL...that's some good sarcasm. (sigh...you were probably serious) MW2 was a copy/paste of the previous game only made ****tier. The fact that tons of lemmings bought the game just encourages Activision to pump out even ****tier and ****tier games year after year. The devs gettting a year to pump out a game means it will half finished and buggier then hell. On topic: I want to know if you can collect ears in the game. They make a nice necklace.

MightyJordan Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 The devs gettting a year to pump out a game means it will half finished and buggier then hell. Wrong there. Each CoD game takes two years to develop. Treyarch have been working on CoD 7 since CoD WaW came out, and IW were working on MW2 right after MW1 came out.

Sethos Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 What? MW2 is one of the, if not the greatest COD released. Say worst and I might agree with you - Infinity Ward were forced to just fill the game to the brim with new stuff, the game buckled under its own weight. As I've said before in my impressions and mini-reviews, Modern Warfare 1 was a fantastic, fast paced first-person shooter with some fairly innovative features for the genre ( Perks, Killstreaks etc. ). Everything was done with some sense, you still had the solid 'core' gameplay shine through and the perks, killstreaks, challenges and attachments adding some flavour. Now, all of the aforementioned features ARE the game, the game has been smothered in them and the 'core' gameplay as a great shooter is slowly drowned in random variables, lucky choices and AI controlled items to dominate the game. It has also become the perfect teen-boy fantasy battlefield, there's so many ways to humiliate and dominate your opponents with ease if you are on a lucky streak, without the help from your teammates. There is no sense, no real tactics or no use of the mind in this game ( Although some people want you to believe that ) it's just a "frat boy shooter" where you can scream OMG PWNED every other second. So as you will notice, once many people tried the nuke a few times, been through the various unlockable weapons, perks and attachments, the interest in the game slowly dies out. The only people who stick with the game this time around is those who love what I described above. This is bound to offend someone but that's what I feel and I no longer respect Infinity Ward as long as they stay the course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
