Official petition thread at the IW forums

Actual petition

#
We're doing a lot on the backend to make the game accessible for everyone.
#
There is no delay for the PC version of MW2
#
There's prestige mode
#
Jason West at the MP event, said that he was dead on, on the matchmaking servers. We've been building a system on the backend called IW.NET.
#
You are completely reliant on IW.NET. There are no server lists. There are no dedicated servers.
#
You have private matches where you can customize the game
#
You cannot put MW2 on a dedicated server.
#
This is the first time we've ever done something like this and the team has huge plans for what IW.NET develops into.
#
Customizing your game...you have quite a few options in a private match
#
You're getting same game (as in Console), plus matchmaking and private match.

.....yeah i won't be buying it.

I'm not willing to pay full price for the game.

If I can find it a lot cheaper, might consider it, I'm not overly bothered, I'll have Fm10 + Left 4 Dead II to look forward to playing.
 
No dedicated servers and mod tools... Surly this is a backwards step :/

I guess it means laggy games and being booted out when the host decides to quit... Doesnt sound like a game worth getting.
 
Hmm

Wont let me register with the site to sign the petition :(

I bet the clans for CoD are well annoyed, no more clan servers with this type of thing.
 
Lack of dedicated servers is becoming a worrying trend. I had boycotted the game already due to activisions pricing practices. Can i boycott it twice?
 
Well that makes the game less worthwhile now...I was ready to take a week off work so I can play online all throughout. But no...they decided to remove all this and for what? shocking.
