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

Scans, details, Pictures.

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.

Im patiently waiting for it.

if the rumours about them asking for £55 for it are true, I\'ll probably be giving this one a miss. +50 for a game is taking the piss.

skipped cod5 but eagerly anticipating this... hope my 4850 can hold up... or it\'s off to newegg for the latest and greatest.

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.

That dude would kick my ass.

Can\'t fucking believe it costs $60 for the PC version.  Idiots

[Cerberus]

the blood splatters on the screen are a big improvement on the red flashes that would happen in MW1 when you got hit.

OMG ! :eek:

I saw this vid on another forum, but only in SD. I seriously can\'t wait for the game to come out. I just hope PSN manages to get sorted out before then, I\'m going to be pretty fucked off if the whole network is down when MW2 lands on my doormat.
