[size=+1]CoD: Modern Warfare 2 - November 10th Worldwide Release [/size]

Scans, details, Pictures.

Quote

Single player enemies will have “customized” weapons similar to the multiplayer component of Call of Duty 4.

Enemies in certain levels will be hiding among civilians, its your job to pick them out. Snipers will hide in shanties as they attempt to pick you off.

The ice mission shown to Game Informer demonstrated the game’s open-ended approach to combat, showing how stealth can be implemented if the player chooses.

Players will alternate using the two triggers to climb ice-walls.

Another demoed area shows an enormous desert setting where Task Force 141 drops into a wasteland and must navigate a “lengthy trek” to a fully-rendered valley with scattered caves, reminiscent of Iron Man.

While the gameplay is open-ended, the story is “on-rails”.

Co-op apparently won’t exist in Story Mode.

Infinity Ward realizes that the “invisible line” where enemies will stop coming in Call of Duty 4 wasn’t great, so they’re trying hard to eliminate that.

“Special Ops Mode” is a major part of Modern Warfare 2, a series of missions in the spirit of the Mile High Club from Call of Duty 4. It will also have 2 player co-op in this mode where you and a friend get to breach an enemy stronghold with teamwork. Gears of War style bleed-out-and-partner-revive will be used.

Movable turrets will be used in Special Foces Mode and Single Player, no official word on online use.

MIGs can be blown up like cars in the first game, often killing entire groups of nearby enemies.

Riot shields will be implemented in the game.

Zakhaev’s former associate, Makarov, is the “new face of global terrorism.”

Snowmobiles are used as a form of escape in the demonstration. Unclear whether or not the player will drive, shoot, or both.

Infinity Ward wants to implement an accomplishment system to online, as they want to make their players famous.

Online mode will use a “Live-Patching” system, where Infinity Ward can manipulate spawn logic or certain parts of a multiplayer map without doing a full-blown patch.

Infinty Ward is focusing on details for Modern Warfare 2, citing iced-up tire treads in the Russian level.

Modern Warfare 2 will run at 60 frames-per-second, with better detail than Call of Duty 4.

Swimming mode enabled.

A ‘Stealthy’ Oil pipeline Scuba Mission will be included in campaign mode.

A level will definetly be based in Rio De Janeiro.

Siberian Level will feature in campaign mode.

Vehicles (e.g. Trucks, Tanks etc.) will be introduced into the Modern Era.

A ‘Helicopter Based’ Level will be featured.

An Oil Tanker level will also be featured.

Ken Lally (Wesker from Resident Evil 5) will be voice acting. Most likely as a Russian villain.

Not crazily looking forward to this, but the day it comes out ill probably end up buying it since i also skipped on cod5. but nice info

Between now and then ill have madden, assassins 2, uncharted 2, and maybe alpha protocol and/or operation flashpoint 2...so I may hold off from buying it if Im still preoccupied with those games

@ cerb: what do games normally cost you? Theyre going to have one version priced the normal price of a game, a hardened edition thats like 10 bucks more, then some P.O.S. collectors edition with a shitty pair of NVG\'s...so you might be talking about the hardened version with some extra stuff

usually between £39 and £49 depending on where I get them from. it\'s the flat standard edition that\'s been RRP\'d at £55.

it\'s not just the price of the game either, you just know within a week or so of releasing the game, they will rush out a map pack (containing maps that are already in the game in single player mode) costing nearly £10.

i havent played extensively online but the few times I was online I didnt have any problems.

but with COD, i guess MS makes their own servers and sony makes IW make their servers for the ps3, so MS servers are more stable. So ill be getting this one on 360.

can\'t say as I\'ve experienced server problems myself, only time I have had problems with game quality, is when the host player has had a shite connection speed, which I\'d imagine happens on the 360 as well.

Even though I vowed to not purchase it for PC (I don\'t own a console), I\'m starting to crack.  Newegg has the pc version for $52.  It\'s tough when you loved mw1 to death and have been patiently waiting for mw2, skipping over cod5 even.

As pissed as I am about what they did to neuter the pc version, I figure if it\'s good enough for the console gamers it\'s good enough for me.

Pretty tempting to just go ahead and buy a ps3 or xbox360 now that I have a nice hdtv.  If I didn\'t just get my hours cut last week I probably would.

I\'m loving the online mode, it\'s way more involved than MW1. the maps are bigger, richer and weapon customisation is massively advanced compared to the last one.

I also like the custom killstreaks, it personalises the game experience. I unlocked the sentry gun killstreak, and it\'s fucking superb. a strategically positioned sentry gun can rack up shit loads of kills.

and after uncharted 2, the "epic"-ness of COD games arent as spectacular as they used to be.

honestly a little -meh with the game.

doesnt help next week is ACII, but I got 20 bucks off of it with buying MW2 which is cool

edit: its fun when you do well,lol. But i keep getting disconnected from xbox live almost every game. starting to piss me off. I\'ve never had connection problems now I cant stay online for more than 2 rounds. and even that\'s pushing it. the people on my friends list have to be tired of seeing me log on and off

wow... very impressed with it so far.  Looks really good and I can run it silky smooth at max settings.  Online matchmaking isn\'t bad at all.  Between rounds is a mandatory 60 second intermission, which is kinda cool as it gives you time to change your custom config or look at your recent achievements.  Most pc gamers are staying away due to this, but I never got into joining clans or playing with certain people all the time.

I only had one game out of probably 20 or so where the host left and it took about 20 seconds for the game to determine the new host and migrate everything over to them.  No noticable lag or hiccups while playing... none at all.  

Enjoying the new levels and all the new killstreaks & added unlockables they\'ve added.  Enjoying myself alot so far, and that\'s all I really care about.

Favela is good, I too like all the alleys and tight close quarters combat.  Liked invasion & karachi.  

Good maps overall... still haven\'t played about 4 or 5 of the maps.

not the most unique map, but I like invasion. Nice mix of close quarter combat and long-range, with only a few sniper spots.

[size=+2]Modern Warfare 2 destroys all records to become the fastest-selling game of all time worldwide ![/size]

Quote

VGChartz preliminary day one figures puts the sales to date (including the midnight launches) at over 7 million copies worldwide across Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. Around 55% of sales are on Xbox 360, 33% on PS3 and the remaining 12% on PC. In terms of regional breakdowns, over 4.2 million units were sold in the Americas (3.7 million USA), 1.2 million in the UK and 350,000 each in France and Germany.

Based on the day one figures and the Tuesday release, week one figures should come in at close to ten million units which smashes the 5.92 million week one record set by Grand Theft Auto 4 last year and positions Modern Warfare 2 as the most successful game launch of all time.

In fact, even on a single format (Xbox 360), week one sales are projected to come in at around 5.5 million units - this alone is enough to be the fastest-seller of all time, even without the PS3 and PC versions as you can see below:

think you\'ll know my response bizio. I\'ve avoided spoilers so I know know exactly what\'s in AC2 or for a fact that these things are in it, but the main complains people had about AC1 (which was a very good game) have been fixed in AC2.

while MW2 is great and fun, it is another shooter. there\'s not many, if any, games to replace assassins creed (that is if you like the gameplay)

I\'m a little more tempted to buy AC2, I missed the first one, and the sequel promises really good.   COD is spectacular, and though it is another FPS, I have to admit that even for it I have the mouth watering.   I\'m still not sure 100%;  as you said, there isn\'t a Game like AC2 on PS3 or 360, so it would be the better choice for me;  err, it\'s not easy.  I will think a bit more.

the one thing more annoying than getting crushed by your own care package, is calling one in without taking note of your surroundings, all too often I have called in a drop and then have not been able to get at it because it\'s stuck on a bridge or the top of a building.

one good thig about it though, is that it attracts opposing players like the faint aroma of dog shit attracts flies, so you can find a quiet corner and wait for them, then when they arrive, pick them off.

I do it purposely at times for that same reason once I figured out to pay attention to where I call it in at.

yeah, same. I pretty much have at least 2 spots on each map now that I go to for calling in care packages, they tend to be on the opposite sides of the map so I just have to make my way to the closest one.

what\'s your tactic for getting the nuke? I haven\'t even unlocked it as a killstreak yet, but I\'ve read about other people saying they have, they all give different routes saying theirs is the best.

Harrier at 7 Chopper Gunner at 11 Nuke at 25

After I get the chance to use harrier i find a good hiding spot and use it and let it rack up 4 more kills (i don\'t risk getting them myself) and getting chopper gunner. If things go well you can lay a beating on them with chopper gunner all the way to nuke. If it doesn\'t it gets you pretty damn close, usually.

The weapons I use are usually model 1887 akimbo shotguns. Marathon pro, lightweight pro, commando pro. Thats what I used to get 2 of them, the 3rd nukeI got from a silenced AK-47 and marathon pro, cold blooded, ninja
pro.

A lot of the time the hard part is finding a good hiding spot to stay in while you use harrier and are in the chopper gunner screen leaving yourself vulnerable. Getting a 7 kill streak to start it off isn\'t an every game occurrence either...yet.

Cerb is correct. The chopper itself stays up until someone takes it out directly but you can ruin someones streak.

yeah, it\'s the same with AC-130\'s, I had one yesterday, and I could see when I was killed as I was using it, as the blood splatters appeared on my screen as I was firing the missiles. it still carried on until the run had finished. when I went back into FPS view, I was in a different part of the map.

another thing I\'m noticing about this game, is the increasing problems with lag. seems like the majority of the time, at least 50% of the players have a single red connection bar.

yeah well, that\'s what snipers do.

I find it more rewarding to methodically pick opponents off with headshots from the other side of the map, than just run round like a headless chicken holding a shotgun hoping to simply blast people at random within a 120 degree  radius and within 10 feet.

"shoot-shoot-shoot-move-shoot-shoot-shoot-move" yields a better K/D ratio than "move-move-move-shoot-die-respawn-move-move-shoot-die", and it\'s better overall for the rest of the team.

it\'s always the run & gunners that end up boasting about having 20 kills in a match, but not acknowledging that they were themselves killed about 27 times.

I\'m a team player, even though the rest of my team might not be. I take more pride in having 10 kills and maybe 1 or 2 deaths, than total kill count by the end of the match.

i agree with the sniping.  Annoying when people whine about "Campers"  I do both.  I run and gun and I snipe.  Just depends on the map and what\'s going on.

If you have a camper, shoot him.  There are very very few places on these maps where you can\'t get hit from the side or from behind.

I also love my rocket launcher.  UAV my ass!!!!

And LUCKEE, I saw you on last night, I was just too far away from my mic to bother.  I turn it on and mute it usually.

but on maps like terminal, favela & highrise, it\'s just a waste of time sniping.

I was just getting a raz out of you calling you a camper. I dont have a problem with snipers, since I suck at it and it does take skill. Campers are the douchebags that sit in a corner waiting for someone to walk by. I know its easy to get them, but it usually takes getting killed by them first to find them

it\'s a glitch with the javelin where basically it turns it into a mini nuke if you equip a grenade and switch back to the javelin before throwing it. it effectively kills every opponent in the near vicinity.

I don\'t know wtf is wrong with me lately, but all of a sudden I\'m shit at this game. I\'ve gone from getting a 5-7/1 K/D average to barely breaking even.

I seem to spawn right in people\'s targets.

I wasnt aware holding onto a grenade was you holding onto a live grenade

I finally got a c130 killstreak (thats the highest one i have so far), but couldnt get that many kills with it. Dudes were always at the worst angles so I couldnt hit them. Is there a button to launch the flares or does it do it automatically?

Post by: Cerberus on December 12, 2009, 03:37:57 PM
that\'s the thing with ac-130, it\'s effectlively useless on some maps.

maps like favela, invasion, skidrow and karachi are quite sheltered with a lot of indoor areas rendering it useless. but on maps like wasteland, afghan and derail, you can really rack up some good kills.

it\'s all the luck of the draw really.

the flares are launched automatically, I think you get 2 lots with the ac-130, if not, then 3. the pave low has 1. I don\'t think any of the others have them

Why don\'t you map the controls in MW2 to fit what you are used to/tend to do?  That\'s what I would do.

Standard controls scheme is perfect in MW2 for me(L2 and R2 for the "blinding" and grenade"; the problem is when you play Uncharted2 or another game a lot more than MW2.  I have just to play MW2 more, and Uncharted2 less :)
