Re: Modern Warfare 2 Review (PC)

I think your score of 6 was justified. Multiplayer, while still really fun, is hectic and very unbalanced. If a team is winning, they get killstreaks. Those killstreaks gain more kills and then another killstreak (best example of this is the chopper gunner). You also have those guys running around with extra knife distance or the double shotguns.

Include this with the problems that were mentioned (lag, rubber-banding, etc) and hackers, the multiplayer is a lot different from COD4.

Regarding multiplay, in to many instances I've found myself loosing a "conflict" because of lag and a choppy view that screws up my strategy. it never happens in COD4 and WAW!

I don't remember if I posted on this thread already but;

The multiplayer is terrible.

It's laggy, the weapons are boring and feel weak, they are also very "beefy" look like Gears of Wars guns. Basically you end up with either SCAR or M4.

The game itself feels much slower, it's very camping friendly, almost encourages you to camp.

6vs6 feels empty and boring.



CoD4 is much more fun to play, MUCH more.


I really don't like the game and I wish had not bought it. But I guess it was a good lesson, I was buying CoD games religiously, collecting them. Was planning to buy WaW but now screw that, I'm done with CoD franchise, CoD4 was the last one for me.


EDIT: BTW, lol at the banner of this review on the front page, summarizes the game basically.

It does have some issues with lag and matchmaking

Also forgot to add that having one of the most idiotic spawn points does not help either.

In a team deathmatch, you just spawn wherever.... it's a deathmatch basically where you can't kill half the team.

CoD1 had by far the most organized and proper spawn points.

Well that is pretty shocking, how do you change it to 10 bars?

Re: Modern Warfare 2 Review (PC)

In your mp_config file.

In your mp_config file.

Yes,
cg_ScoresPing_Interval "20"

and

seta cg_ScoresPing_MaxBars "10"

So 10 bars = 0 ms and 0 bars = 200 ms
