Hi all

I'm going download the game this weekend on Steam. I'm just wondering is there a Prestige mode for the PC this time round unlike on CoD 4?

WOW, just had a few hours of multiplayer and with the previous tweaks to my config i managed to get a few lag free games. Also hosted about 3-4 games worth which was fun. Just got M4A1 with holo scope and heartbeat sensor --- lots of fun

care to share those config edits?

so far i havent lagged, but less lag is always good

I don't understand this. You haven't lagged at all? 1 out of every 4 games I play we all get lag, since everyone starts spamming chat with 'omg lag' and our latency bars go down to 1. Am I doing something wrong lol?
<---- cable connection, usually get 40ms on cod4 servers and no interupts

I think you can get banned doing this though.

Why is it I can only play friggin team deathmatch? Any time I attempt to play anything else (dom for example) it just doesn't work.

IW... FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

I hate not being able to pick what map to play on

. I hate favela!

I am constantly getting game stutter when I play this game. Random pauses in the middle of gameplay. Can someone explain a solution to this issue? I've got a E8500, 4GB RAM and an 8800GT.

just completed it on veteran!

amazing game! gonna play thru it again!

I descided to get the PC version today (had it for 360, dont ask why, I miss my mouse an keyboard). I have to say, the online is every bit as good as COD4. There isnt any lag issues so far as I can tell. I have had once where I had to leave a game because the host connection wasnt up to par. 18 player max seems to be fine and overall, I have to say, I am grudingly impressed with the way it works. Seems the game accounts for the ping.

underclocker · 14 Nov 2009 at 21:34

I have to say that I'm not that impressed, I've spend 8 hours playing it now and think I will go back to world at war. Every other MP game is laggy or disconnects and the lack of dedicated servers is a step backwards.

Its as good as COD 4 but that is about it

Love single player, mp is bloody hard and coop, although fun...why is there no text of voice chat on it and its only 2 players!

I havnt played spec ops but is there really no way to communicate with the other player?

and I thought no chat in the lobby was bad. :/

We really need to get some games together. I'm getting bored on my own.

Does anyone know of any communities where people group and play? Even if they aren't very good?

I had my best ever round today. I think I'm slowly improving, although I'm still not good. I checked my stats and I've got 186 kills and 186 deaths.

Sh3rlock · 14 Nov 2009 at 23:02

Installed and completed in one day, short but sweet.

Was afraid the ending would fall flat compared to the first but it did not disappoint.

Graphics were great, felt great, played great, although it did cause my graphics driver to crash a few times in the snow levels.

In all, its a good game, not worth £30 but id defo recommend it to a friend when the price comes down abit.

[TW]Fox · 15 Nov 2009 at 00:29

Just completed it. Massively dissapointed at the pathetic length of the SP Campaign but what was there was absolutely outstanding.

wesley · 15 Nov 2009 at 00:32

brilliant game! probably the best FPS game i played since black hawk down

Join the OcUK MW2 Steam Group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/OCUKMW2

And we'll get a game of it together some time.

Agreed. I used to get 20-30ms on COD4 server (better than most players) but have just came back from a very choppy Team Death Match. This game is allot of fun but IW have made a serious mistake not allowing dedicated servers.

Took the plunge and bought this on steam today. Playing through the brazil level currently.

Pretty good so far. Runs great on 2560x1600 on 295gtx.

This game would be awesome on eyefinity.
