    After hearing the latest news, I can't understand why anyone would seriously consider this game. Here's the interview from a day or to ago.

    Wasn't going to buy it after they announced that they pulled dedicated server support, but now they are pulling the console and taking out lean? I can't help but lol at Infinity Ward...they are fucking up so bad and losing SO many customers with these decisions.

    To sum up:

    1. No dedicated servers
    2. No console
    3. No MOD support
    4. 18 players max - 32 is out
    5. No lean in multiplayer
    6. Forced IWNET use
    7. Locally hosted matches - Ping advantage
    8. 5 second re-sync on host leave
  1.  

    Are you serious!?!?!?! This is the first I've heard of this! Come on Infinity Ward!

    It will probably be a decent console game, as good as the last one anyways.

    Mostly because on the console everyone expects a rage quit and a server to hop to the next best box. On a PC, that's unacceptable.

    they have 3rd person view option too. Yayy for corner campers that can just see you coming.

    Oh I plan on playing it. It just depends on when I can borrow a copy so IW gets the message to not gimp the PC.

    it seriously looks to me like people are bitching just to bitch. I find it funny when people that dont own the game say that its terrible. I have the game, Im a higher level than most people, I havent experienced any problems at all. its a friggin amazing game any way you put it.

    That is besides the point. The game might be extremely fun to play and deep, don't get me wrong, but when Activision (or Infinity Ward, whoever was behind the decision to "dumb" down the PC version) decides to pull features like dedicated servers, large player support, LEANING, THE CONSOLE, modding, a server browser, RAISE THE PRICE TO $60...it's a slap in the face to everything that PC gaming is about. People aren't complaining about the quality of the game; that's never been under question. We all know that IW is capable of producing GOTY-caliber games (see COD4, COD2).

    The crap that IW/Activision is spewing to the PC gaming community as to WHY they decided to make these drastic changes is what is embarrassing and downright frustrating. We PC gamers are NOT console gamers, we do NOT take compromise in the ass so willingly like our console brethren.

    Blaine, you're not having issues because of stout's network - in fact you might be one of the few hosts out there with no problems

    muffin, really? you need to stop spamming your stupid images that have no value nor are contributing to the subject whatsoever.

    it was activision that pulled all those features.

    Blaine: The images I post are simply picture representations of the comments I would otherwise make. I see no difference. If I want to post a pic, I will.

    Then graphical or otherwise, I think you need to realize what spam is. had you posted the words "Watchu talkin' 'bout" would be considered spam just as much as your picture is. Since you seem to know practically nothing about anything, let me refer you to the wikipedia article on spam located here. It is a good read and im sure you would learn many things.

    Sure, spam can be justified in certain threads, such as the funny image thread ECT, but please keep them there.

    As for "if i want to post a pic, i will." , well. If I want to delete your post, I will.

    Yes I know nothing about anything. What a well thought out well argued statement. I was simply asking him to elaborate on his statement, that is not spam.

    well if were getting into the specifics of what a port is.. when they made it for xbox, the directx and basically all the code already worked for pc. i wouldnt call it a port as much as 'the same thing'

    That's called saving on your development costs. Ask Sam Armstrong about that, I'm sure he'll tell how that works
