pesultra Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 source http://bashandslash.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=739&Itemid=111 Sounds like there will be a matchmaking mode, but will there be a dedicated server too...

ECF Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 All speculation until the game is released. It would be a major blow if they did not have a DS component for the game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tehrichie Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 So it'll be something similar to L4Ds setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lane Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 So it'll be something similar to L4Ds setup? You will have to wait and see, only when the game is released will we really know what it is to be. Same with all games, they change greatly in the last weeks of development.

ECF Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Well just visting IW's site I noticed this under the game features section: Game Features: Epic single-player campaign picks up immediately following the thrilling events from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. The definitive multiplayer experience returns, with a host of new perks and enhancements. New cooperative SpecOps mode, the perfect combination of Modern Warfare's single-player intensity and the addictive replayability of its multiplayer. ** Note number 2: The definitive multiplayer experience returns, with a host of new perks and enhancements.

Defcon|Rich Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 I'd find that hard to believe. The COD series always had support from the developers in regard to multiplayer. I'm quite sure they know the following they have with the online crowd which is huge compared to other titles.. It would surprise me if they would turn away from that.

Ah of course, I was just stating that's what I got outta the article that was posted Either way, servers will be sold no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryce Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 MW2DS.exe>>> My Guess................ run the standard commandline and it will fire up dedicated ..... muahahahahhah Hopefully it turns out being that easy, but you never know now adays, seems many of the recently released games like to make things complicated.

ECF Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 This is due to the console gaming market influx. Companies make a ton more money off the consoles than they do from PC game sales since there are 3-4 console platforms vs. only 1 platform for PC. Also they seem to be porting the console games over to PC after they are done with the consoles leaving some serious issues with the PC versions.

Or worse yet, allowing console clients on the same servers as PC clients! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodFather Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 I'd so love to have console VRS PC not because PC has an advantage, I'm just sick of Peer to Peer connections where it's 16 players and the host has like 256kb upload speed....

ECF Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 They did attempt to have PC and console gamers on dedicated servers. I forget the game title. Epic fail if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stay2theleft Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 It's true... There will be no dedicated files for MW2 only listen servers... Fail... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wondorae Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 yep.. bashandslash did a live web cast with 402 and he confirmed that there will be no dedicated servers. They system will be run through a system called IW net or something and we all have to play on each others connections. A dark day this is for us GSP companys and gamers alike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbiloh Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Posted this over at our forum. Naturally I invite everyone to post on IW's forum and sign the petition: As many of you may already know, Infinity Ward (the Devs for MW2) have decided to NOT include a dedicated server for their upcoming game. I strongly urge everyone to head over to: http://www.petitiononline.com/dedis4mw/petition.html and sign the petition. Also signup and post your support on IW's forum: http://www.infinityward.com/forum/viewtopi...13&t=121918 ... there are currently about 120 pages on that thread already. Without a dedicated server Modern Warfare 2 will be an epic failure on the PC. Let the developers know how important they are for the success of their game!!

dimitrifrom31 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 this reminds me sof payback (sof3), epic fail commercial release. and no dedicated could mean free cheating, cracked versions for 90% of the players etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wondorae Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 well what there doing on the cheat front is using steams VAC system. All that will happen now is the torrents will go up and ppl will just play the single player. Lets just hope they change there minds but i dont see it coming.... i could be wrong oh how i hope. If i wanted to play like consoles play i would play on my ps3 but the pure reason i dont is because i like online play been able to play with players around the world, not on some 12 yo kids home connection that thinks he rules the world cause he can have his own server for free now. **RANT OVER** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimitrifrom31 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 what is sick is that those games became famous due to the MP part mostly and without GSP's the CoD series wouldnt have been such a success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
