AK 47 is the highest at 70 so I'm just guessing it's the max.

G 11-04-2009 08:20 AM

it looked like from the videos that you get more points for doing things now, so hopefully it won't be such a drag to rank up.

G 11-04-2009 08:21 AM

wtf @ the .50 cal being available from the start

LoDownM 11-04-2009 12:41 PM

wtf, why is the AK unlocked so late.

G 11-04-2009 01:45 PM

Normally I violently hate anything involving Eminem, but that's a hot trailer.

D Mac 11-04-2009 11:59 PM

LOL I hope he's not on the soundtrack. Like when you get ready to play you have to listen to his wigger voice every time.

RoXer 11-05-2009 08:30 PM

Nah that was me :D

LoDownM 11-06-2009 12:37 AM

Don't feel like going through the thread and I can't find it on the internet, I've heard TDM is gonna be 9v9, anyone heard/seen anything about it?

Vietnamese Crippler 11-06-2009 12:52 AM

Every online match will be limited to 9v9 (18 players maximum) for all the platforms.

Quote:

When asked by user Josh111 "What will the max amount of players be per map for PC multiplayer on IW.net," MacCandlish responded "The max number of players on all platforms are 1v1 through 9v9."

RoXer 11-06-2009 01:11 AM

hmmm :-/

Fignuts 11-06-2009 01:51 AM

Toys R Us is offering a $20 gift card.....the catch is its only valid between 10am-2pm on release day and you need to get a rewards card (which is free)

Activision catches both pirates and thieves in Modern Warfare 2 investigation

by JC Fletcher http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.en...writer_rss.gif { 59 minutes ago } http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.jo...001xbox001.png
<center>http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.c...bundle1106.jpg</center>While it might be tempting to go straight to Craigslist with those Modern Warfare 2 Xbox 360 bundles you stole, it turns out that Activision notices exciting, high-profile offers just like your potential customers might. VentureBeat reports that when Activision noticed a listing for one of the bundles last Thursday, the company hired a private investigation firm, IPCyberCrime.com, to track down the seller.

When IPCyberCrime found the person behind the sale, the investigator discovered that he was an employee at a retailer, who, with friends, had stolen the bundles to sell on Craigslist. The sellers were turned over to the store's loss prevention department.

That bust led to one of the prospective buyers, named Christian Del Amo, who was raising money on a forum to buy the bundle (allegedly) for the purpose of copying the game and selling the copies, along with other pirated games, on hard drives. IPCyberCrime turned that case over to the Miami-Dade Police Department, who arrested Del Amo.

Obviously, this demonstrates one reason (aside from the whole morality thing) why you shouldn't try to make a business of selling pirated games. Activision has enough money to hire a private investigator, and is not afraid to use it.



LOL

D Mac 11-07-2009 12:44 AM

Oh yeah, Activision confirms Call of Duty 7 next year. Hopefully it's not another WW2.

Treyarch wasn't confirmed as the developer but dunno if they have a contract or not.

Fignuts 11-07-2009 12:52 AM

D-Mac are you gonna be able to play in this tourney thing or not?

D Mac 11-07-2009 12:56 AM

We'll see after midnight on Nov. 10.

Fignuts 11-07-2009 01:04 AM

SUSPENSE

D Mac 11-07-2009 10:00 AM

I'm in now. Got a 360 arcade from Wal-Mart and it came with a $100 gift card. Will get headset later.

G 11-07-2009 10:09 AM

No you won't. You will never get a headset. Don't kid yourself or anyone here.

Blitz 11-07-2009 06:56 PM

Will Blitz get a new headset? Only time will tell.

RoXer 11-07-2009 07:19 PM

Will Blitz get off his ass and pick a partner?

Fignuts 11-07-2009 09:03 PM

Headsets are kinda necessary for 2v2.

GameStops in Northeastern states such as New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio are selling Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 early, granted special dispensation from Activision due to street-breaking mom-and-pop stores.

Here in Atlanta we still have to wait until Monday's midnight launch to pick up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, but lucky folks in several Northeastern states are getting their copies earlier. According to a GameStop employee I spoke to in Bowling Green, Ohio, Activision granted certain area stores special permission to sell the game early, in order to stem the tide of lost customers picking their copies up early from local mom and pop stores.

The employee actually greeted me with "Thank you for calling GameStop, where you can pick up Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2." Calls to my local GameStop stores were greeted with claims of jealousy and invitations to come by Monday night to pick up my copy. Dammit.

Thanks to C & C Games for sending us a copy of their receipt, and everyone in New York and Pennsylvania who sent in tips. Lucky bastards.

The comment section would be an excellent place for you to bitch about the general unfairness of all of this.

Champion of Europa 11-07-2009 09:43 PM

Played this last night due to a friend who works at a movie gallery. I only played 4 player, offline multiplayer cause we had four people over, but it was fantastic.

I dig on that you can create a class, do challenges, and level up for your own individual offline profiles. I play a lot with just the people I have over and not online, and this is perfect for my group of friends.

Kalyx triaD 11-07-2009 10:09 PM

Wonder what that guy got with his change. Maybe a nice cold beverage.

D Mac 11-07-2009 10:59 PM

I wonder if IGN will give this a 10. The last game I saw get a 10 was GTA 4.

Fignuts 11-07-2009 11:03 PM

Or a king-size snickers.

Blitz 11-08-2009 03:21 PM

So happy my EB is doing a midnight launch.

Johnny McNasty 11-09-2009 03:32 PM

I'm about to power nap it out guys, that way I'm fresh as can be for tonight. Got a 50 dollar bet between me and four friends to see who is the highest level before 7 tomorrow morning. Which I plan on winning at all costs as I just got a notice from Microsoft that my year subscription of Live runs out on the 14th. Was f'n gutted as I just blew my load to get my copy of MW2.

Also as a side note I hate my local Gamestop. What the hell does working condition mean?

D Mac 11-09-2009 05:58 PM

Yep I'm going to go lay down right now too. WOOOOOOOO

Blitz 11-09-2009 06:14 PM

6 hoursssssssssssssssss

Fignuts 11-09-2009 06:36 PM

Went to walmart to see if I could trick a clueless old person into selling me the game, but a young informed employee was working in electronics.

CSL 11-09-2009 06:38 PM

Half an hour here, some long ass queues in town apparently

ClockShot 11-09-2009 07:02 PM

Went and paid off mine earlier today. Saw mine waiting in back. :D

My store is expecting a big crowd from what I hear.

CSL 11-09-2009 07:15 PM

"first one to get modern warfare 2 in wednesfield!!!!!!!!!!"

Bless him

CSL 11-09-2009 08:20 PM

Mildly jealous that there seem to be so many people playing this atm :-\

Vietnamese Crippler 11-09-2009 10:02 PM

I just won the neutered PC version off eBay yesterday, so I'll have it tomorrow.

Hopefully the lack of dedicated servers and all won't bring it down too hard :o

Emperor Smeat 11-09-2009 10:24 PM

To celebrate the new Modern Warfare soon, here is a new comic:

Ended up getting this from Amazon. Paid $48 plus getting a $20 gift card. :D

LoDownM 11-09-2009 10:54 PM

My dad's dragging me down to Walmart to wait in line with him. Want to play it, just don't want to go down there tonight :rant:

Shaggy 11-09-2009 10:55 PM

Im not going to do any midnight release...im just gonna wait till work tomorrow to pick mine up.

On a side note...The gamestop near where I work had a liine of 40 people already when I left work at 5:30.

G 11-09-2009 10:58 PM

that is so fucking retarded

ClockShot 11-09-2009 11:05 PM

A line that early. Crazy.

About to head out in a few minutes. Me and my buddies will get started on it tomorrow.

Tazz Dan 11-09-2009 11:40 PM

I've had my copy for two days, but haven't played it yey. :(

$48? How?

OssMan 11-09-2009 11:54 PM

The hype around this game is pretty much what is preventing me from buying it. When there are people lining up at a video game store at 5:30 for a midnight release it's like nothing could ever possibly live up to that so what is the point

OssMan 11-09-2009 11:56 PM

6 minutes until best game of all time

Fignuts 11-10-2009 12:00 AM

Glad I live in a small town that prioritizes outdoor sports. Even the most anticipated games are well in stock on release.

D Mac 11-10-2009 01:18 AM

Got it. :cool: I will now commence in killing mother fuckers.

The Genius 11-10-2009 04:33 AM

just got back from a 1 hr 10 min wait in line. time to kill DMAC

LoDownM 11-10-2009 04:42 AM

Thank god, no more fucking WW2. Not a fan of the EMP, red dot turns off :(

Blitz 11-10-2009 04:53 AM

Hot game.

D Mac 11-10-2009 04:56 AM

I love stealing care packages with helicopters and using them. :cool:

D Mac 11-10-2009 05:57 AM

4 straight hours of multiplayer, haven't even touched single player yet.

D Mac 11-10-2009 05:58 AM

9.5 from IGN

ClockShot 11-10-2009 08:16 AM

About an hour and 40 minute wait for me.

Will get started soon.

Campaign is indeed fucking awesome, played through a good portion of it so far.

IC Champion 11-10-2009 01:21 PM

Got my copy last night.

Fignuts 11-10-2009 01:23 PM

Played a few team deathmatch games. Didn't do so hot but it's mad fun so far.

CSL 11-10-2009 01:24 PM

For others in the UK, you can get this for £24.99 at Morrisons, £26 at Sainsbury's or £24.98 from Gamestation if you buy 2 copies of Overlord II from Play.com (£10 each) and trade them in plus £5

Yeah I was doing pretty bad at first. Hate running around maps I don't know. Getting my stride though.

Fignuts 11-10-2009 02:36 PM

So how much media outrage do you think there will be over this. You know what I'm talking about.

Blitz 11-10-2009 02:39 PM

I'm surprised there hasn't been much thus far, that mission leaked weeks ago.

Fignuts 11-10-2009 02:43 PM

Seen people argue that its like gta, but it's really not. The atmosphere just makes it feel different to me. I wasn't offended or anything, but I can see how someone might be disturbed by it.

D Mac 11-10-2009 03:05 PM

Yeah "No Russian" is gonna raise some outcrys.

PorkSoda 11-10-2009 03:05 PM

So is this game worth getting?

D Mac 11-10-2009 03:05 PM

Yes.

PorkSoda 11-10-2009 03:06 PM

Really? Why is that, Diesal Mac?

D Mac 11-10-2009 03:09 PM

Because I said so. :mad:

No really, it's awesome. If you're just into it for single player, then no, but the all around package, hell yes.

PorkSoda 11-10-2009 03:10 PM

I'll get this either this week or next week.

I was gonna play single player for like 5 minutes then just go 3 hours on multi player. Thats what I did with the other ones.

D Mac 11-10-2009 03:11 PM

Is there even prestige mode in this? Didn't see the option.

PorkSoda 11-10-2009 03:11 PM

I don't know. I don't hve the game yet.

There's been a fair bit over here, which alerted me to it coming out and result in me buying it for my PS3 so I can shoot people in the face.

CSL 11-10-2009 03:24 PM

I will trade you littlebigplanet and a hockey stick for it

El Capitano Gatisto 11-10-2009 03:25 PM

Got LBP for free ages ago. Played it about twice.

Ditto. Well except for the free part :|

OssMan 11-10-2009 04:03 PM

What did Flying Nazi Zombie Hitler draw near or something

OssMan 11-10-2009 04:05 PM

Oh shit ECG has a Playstation 3. This leads me to seriously considering buying this game to engage in combat with ECG

El Capitano Gatisto 11-10-2009 04:06 PM

Do it. I will knee-cap you.

I am ok at these games but I can't compete with those bastards who spend their lives playing it and are on the highest level after about 2 days. Hopefully no one here is one of those guys.

There is. Rewards this time around, apparently.

So I've played a few hours. I guess I'm about halfway through the campaign? It's awesome. So epic. Well worth setting aside a few hours from multiplayer to check it out.

As for multiplayer, predictably awesome. There's so goddamn much to unlock that I almost feel like it's too big. I can't decide how I feel about the maps yet. Some of them seem too big, but that may just be because I haven't got the full feel of them yet. Feel like most of the maps favour long range combat over close quarters, which makes SMGing or shotgunning a little tough at this point. Oddly, I've not encountered too many snipers yet. Seems like everyone is favouring Assault Rifles.

But yeah it's sexy.
