Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Shipping With Steamworks

Back on topic meanwhile....
..Gabe Newell, president and co-founder of Valve. "Having a game as significant as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 using the suite of back-end services in Steamworks is a signal to us that we're making the right kinds of choices for triple-A developers like Infinity Ward."

Which could be taken to read:
"I'm glad IW are using our service to stuff their loyal customers over the next instalment of an eagerly awaited franchise, as we get to set prices at above typical retail and coin it in for doing almost no work at all!"

Notice he's focusing his comments on his system, and developers - i.e. the ones who make the money, and barely any concern for actual gamers, who might buy the game?
 
not really. I dont go into it that deep..... Im just not shelling out my money for half a game. They want to shaft us? well we can shaft them back.
 
Nice to see someone is aptly named.

You sir are both TRYING and TESTING.

Another in an ever increasing line of console gamers who seem to be getting too big for their boots.

I especially liked it when you suggested we unite under a common banner like we're going to march on the Activision/IW headquarters. I don't know if you've noticed but the internet is quite a big place filled with all sorts of people so trying to get some kind of all encompassing united force together is a touch difficult. What a muppet.

Why is it that anyone that doesn't jump on the "Hate IW" bandwagon is automatically a console gamer?

This is the pc forum, it's common behaviour sadly :(

Any bad game is automatically suffering from 'consolitis' and any good game that happens to be on console as well is of course just a good port from PC.
 
just seems like a modern day version of 'the console wars' and children trying to justify why their platform is superior

Yay... for mindless repetition until death by boredom, rather than actually being able to play an entertaining multi-player game and barely noticing your achievements rack up as you're so busy! :rolleyes:

Ye :( Achievements and MP Matchmaking. The whole thing reeks of console.

Whats next? Mandatory gamepad requirement?

Reason being that that's how the game was originally developed for so if its good enough for the console players its good enough for you & of course mandatory auto aim.

Yet you ignore the frequent flaming that goes on in the console forum. I'm sure there are more console fanboys that rubbish the PC community than the other way round. Honestly. Get out if you haven't got anything useful to say. That also goes to Triedandtested and RDM etc... :rolleyes:

Disagreement is fine, but don't start rubbishing us. Surely the mass of an outcry means something to you? I agree that the L4D2 boycott was ridiculous, but this one has sensible roots.

Incidentally, how is dropping dedicated servers, which generally offer far lower pings, better playability, less cheaters (community admins can boot them), mods (OK, for the game developer this makes some sense) and more players a good thing?

Hmmmm, VAC for CoD...

People submit good players for ''wallhacking'' ''aimbots'' etcetc and person loses all VAC games :confused:.

VAC bans don't work like that, you can't submit someone for hacking. People get banned when VAC detects the hack programme, as thousands of people get accused for hacking on css lol :p

You best get used to it as the console gamers are shaping the future of ALL gaming whether you like it or not. :p

Some of the responses in here do tickle me. I've never seen such narrow mindedness.

Likewise, I've never seen such unjustified arrogance mixed with dizzying ignorance. You seem to think that dressing your trolling up in some vaguely eloquent manner detracts from the fact that you are just forum troll.
Sorry sweetie - it doesnt.
Now run along and find another thread to start arguments in so you can feel better about yourself. Trot on!
