very gutted about this news, ill be canceling my pre order. this will cost IW a fair few quid with cancels and i really cant see why hey would want to incorperate this sort of system into a game that has a pedigree of games that all work on the same type of system.
Are they trying to inforce this system for a specific reason or is this a cost saving factor?
 
OFDR isn't too bad, and apparently they might actually add dedicated servers to it (so I heard)

"Im cancelling my pre order because MW2 doesnt have Dedicated Servers, what else can I buy?"


"how about OFDR, that doesnt have Dedicated Servers either"
 
So you think that Crysis would have worked fine as a P2P multiplayer game when it came out (given how it ate 100% of CPU for most systems just to be "OKish")?

calm down dear. that was my point....

ie pc's are going to have to get a whole lot more powerful for p2p to work well..

I'm actually wondering how the hell you even got the exact opposite from, my statement there :/
 
I implore anyone with a pre-order who intends to actually purchase the game to cancell the pre-order anyway. Hopefully the sheer weight of pre-orders cancelled will hit home at IW, and at least then they'll have a hard time blaming the lack of sales on piracy.

"It's Piracy, it's rampant on the PC platform, that's why it's not selling"
"But you had 100,000 pre-orders, where did they go?"
"Cancelled moments after we announced the lack of dedicated server support"
"Ah.."
 
I really am gutted as i was really really looking forward to this but theres simply no point in me buying this ithout dedi servers, will just have to keep on waiting for Battlefield Bad Company 2
 
So they claimed to have done this to prevent piracy? :/

Seems like suicide to me. a lot of gamers will just download it for the SP now... Great marketing. :p
 
OMG, this is the end! The end of PC gaming, the end of clans, the end of free speech, the end of EA, the end of the net... its..its the end of everything.

Im so unhappy im going back to my life.:( Farewell.

They'll just spin it with some corporate nonsense, try to blame it on us and then use it as an excuse to drop support for PC gaming :(
