I will NOT be getting it. If this all turns out to be true, I will, like a lot of people, leave the CoD series. This is such a joke. The PC community made the CoD series what it is today and this is how IW thanks us? Fair. Very fair.

Re: MW2 No Dedi Servers - CONFIRMED

Merged threads.

To me, this is just typical IW. It seems that they tried to kill off the modding communities when they introduced hardcore, taking so many ideas from mods like AWE. That didn't work, so now they are trying this bull****. For this will kill the modding communities for sure, bye bye modders and it will also kill off the compettitive side of gaming. Compettitive leagues like CGL and TWL etc. NEED dedicated servers, so bye bye compettition and you can forget about custom maps too, bye bye mappers. With no dedicated servers, it's bye bye Infinity Ward.

Re: MW2 No Dedi Servers - CONFIRMED

It is the biggest change since the inception of the CoD series. Essentially what has made the PC communinity successful they are getting rid of.

The reason? Money. With this one move they:
* Eliminate piracy since IW controls all servers
* Can charge for downloadable content (e.g. map packs)

All the crap about making it accessible is a smoke screen - its all about the bucks.

Petitions won't help but making IW lose more money than they will gain WILL help. You need to cancel your pre-order now and not buy MW2 until the PC communities needs are addressed.

Re: MW2 No Dedi Servers - CONFIRMED

Well, the right thing to do is just boycut it. None of my money will ever go towards IW again.

And this is from a guy that bought every single cod game so far, several of each to my kids.
No more.

RIP CoD, it was fun while it lasted.

Re: MW2 No Dedi Servers - CONFIRMED

OK - I have a different question. What other games should I look at since MW2 is out? I've been pretty much a dedicated CoD player but its not looking like that will continue.

I was hopeful about Operation Flash Point but they didn't provide dediated servers and they're wondering why no one's buying the game.

What's some other suggestions?

Re: MW2 No Dedi Servers - CONFIRMED

I'll probably consider CS:Source or continue to play CoD4 and CoD2 moderately (even though CoD2 is a lot more fun) or just quit gaming altogether.

I haven't talked to anyone in the gaming scene who is in favor of this..

Lets face it, the single player will still probably be epic, but after what PC users have been dealt, and the lack of reason (multiplayer) to buy the game, I wouldn't blame any PC user who decided to pirate the game for the single player.

*I blame this on Blizzard. Thats what they're about.
