God dammit. I can't find it anywhere.
Yup, and private chats. ing sucks. I'm hoping it's only an option that can be turned on for compe ive matches. I enjoyed talking with friends rather than morons spamming the mic or prepubescent boys yelling profanities in the game chat.
As for this controversial level, I love it. I don't get why there should be a warning, you spend the entire gaming shooting people.
I mean, you can try to murder everyone in NY/Cali/Vegas in GTA games if you want, I don't see this MW2 as anymore heinous.
I couldn't find it streaming, but you can download it here:

's crazy.
Yeah I just watched it 5 minutes ago. Ruthless.
For real. I don't think they're bringing that lame ass eavesdrop perk back, so I don't even know what their rational is. It's a bummer.
damn, i hate listening to the random morons
anything to further handicap clans is fine with me
I will begin the over use of the mute option.... ha ha
Currently there are three or four playlists you can still use party chat.
people ghost and help their friends or clan mates while dead. they tell them where enemies are and stuff, lame as
i am glad for this.
You can only spectate your team as far as I know
Who actually ghosts to help teammates? Don't you spawn like 3 secs after you die (save for HQ)? I really hope this is an optional implementation.
I think this is a good thing anyway, theres nothing like playing a game and nobody is talking because they are iin party chat with their "click"
you've never come across friends who play on opposite teams or are placed on opposite teams in a game?
clan mates, friends?
when I used to play CoD 4, it happened a lot....
yup agreed.
this is for the best.
If one is partied up, then one's party always joins the same team.
Without the party, there can be no party chat.
Do you mean when there's 6+ clan members all partied together? And on certain game modes where you have a delayed respawn time? I can see your point, but I would just leave if I suspected I was being ghosted
I'd agree if tons of idiots and children didn't dominate the online gaming landscape.
free for all
merc team deathmatch
third person shooters
also this new trailer is sick sick sickly sick

quit arguing
it can be done. join party after you join game, different ways to do it, but it happens a lot.
+1
seriously, maybe if this was like some huge tournament with a nice monetary prize. Otherwise, wtf? Sometimes you're gonna have good games sometimes you're not. This isn't gonna level any playing fields.

MW2 developer chat reveals more bad news

Tags: MW2, Developer Chat, Modern Warfare 2
Yesterday's developer chat hosted by BestBuy has revealed more bad news regarding the PC version of Modern Warfare 2, which will hit the stores in under a week from now. After Infinity Ward's new multiplayer model and their decision not to incorporate dedicated servers lead to a massive discussion across the various community forums, the results of yesterday's chat session will no doubt put more fuel on the fire.
In a community chat session with Mackey McCandlish, Ryan Lastimosa and Vince Zampella of Infinity Ward it has become apparant that there will be no console in Modern Warfare 2, stating "we would like you to play the game the way we designed and balanced it" when asked about the possibility to change the fov, remove perks and graphical debris and tweak the weapons for further balance.
In addition, the chat revealed that there will be no record option (for now) in MW2, nor the option to kick players out of ranked matches. Furthermore leaning will not be possible and no decisions have been made regarding mod tools, although the developers have indicated they are currently focussing on launching the game, as they are currently still working on finishing the game. This also means there are no plans for releasing a demo.
About the dedicated servers issue the developers have stated "nothing is ever off the table" and that they've seen the massive pe ion online. Whether they are aware of the ping problems IW.net will most likely cause is yet to be seen. The answer to a question regarding their ping during IW.net testing, "I've been playing mainly with around 100ms ping and it was great (Mackey-IW)", does not sound too promising.
Some of the more interesting questions can be found below. The full transcript with pc related questions can be found (HERE).
Is there lean in PC multiplayer.
Vince-IW: No.
You said IWnet was created to help stop piracy, what do you say about the Xbox 360 version leaked and shared on torrent sites?
Vince-IW: IWnet was designed to make the MP experience on PC easier and more balanced.
Will IW ever consider developing games on the PC to support dedicated servers, be it MW2 patches or future endeavors? Just curious if dedicated servers are on the radar anymore.
Mackey-IW: Our goal is to provide the best experience for our users, so nothing is ever "off the table". We are always evaluating our options.
o, are you considering ever patching in mod tools for the pc to make custom maps and such?
Mackey-IW: Right now we're focused on launching our game.
(LATER ON) Vince-IW: We haven't made any decisions regarding this yet.
Has IWnet been tested in European settings? My clan plays european leagues and we got ppl from Eastern europe, UK and Sweden meeting in the same match. How is this going to play out considering siginificant differences in Bandwith and connection qualities between players. Will host player always have the ping advantage. Can a match be hosted by 'third' person, not taking part in the match?
Mackey-IW: Players do not control who hosts.
Please give me a direct answer. On the PC version. Are all games hosted by players, and is there a 5 second delay when host migration is in effect?
Vince-IW: yes.
What are the current steps being taken in regard to active blocking measures that some major ISPs have taken regarding Peer 2 Peer connections, such as what Comcast does?
Mackey-IW: Only players capable of hosting will be host.
Will there be a multiplayer PC demo shortly after release? The PC community is largely skeptical at best right now and with no ability to trade-in or rent, this is a real gamble for our wallets.
Vince-IW: No plans for a demo currently. We are still working on finishing the PC game right now (yes, I know... we need to get done!)
Since we can not kick people in ranked matches, how will we stop hackers who get past VAC?
Mackey-IW: Our goal is to ban hackers from the game.
Will the IWNET multiplayer system compensate for the undoubtly low ping that the host computer will have for the other players, or will the host have an advantage over the other players? Also, going back to clans...Is there a way to have more than 18 people in a server, because my clan has at least 100 members and we like to get 20-30 on our servers at the same time.
Mackey-IW: Games cap out at 9v9. The software has great latency tolerance. See above!
Are you aware of the pe ion to for dedicated servers and mods, have you taken this into acount?
Vince-IW: yes.
Is there a console in the PC version of the game, so we can change our field of view from the xbox's default 65 FOV to 80 also can we tweaks the weapon damage for each gun, removes perks, graphical debris, breathing sway, also thru console like we where able to before or is this all gone?
Vince-IW: We would like you to play the game the way we designed and balanced it.
Ignoring IW.net, is the PC version a direct port of the console version?
Mackey-IW: No, PC has custom stuff like mouse control, text chat in game, and graphics settings.
What kinds of pings did you get during your IWNet testing and what do you say is an acceptable ping?
Mackey-IW: I've been playing mainly with around 100ms ping and it was great.
That pretty much guarantees that I will not be buying MW2 at launch, and probably never.
There are no words to describe how idiotic this is.
so you dont want the game unless you can tweak it till it's juuuuust right??
maybe you should develop your own.
