ii played it not long back, was still good fun. i didnt notice any hackers though, and theres ways to not start from scratch 
It's quite dated now, a lot of mechanics have evolved beyond what it offers, the only people still playing it only playing because they are very good at it and it makes it very hard to enjoy as a new player, I much preferred MW3 and BF3 as modern online shooters,

such as
its not aged well huh? I couldnt get into mw2.
Whats so good about the new games that mw1 doesnt have? Its the maps i like most. Hopefully DLC for mw3
Sorry to disagree, but that isn't my experience at all and I play it daily. Being disappointed with MW2, BO and not buying MW3 I still play CoD4 as my go-to online FPS.
There are good players on there, but most of them are not particularly great and new players arrive all the time. I've hardly ever seen any hacking and some of the maps are great. The games load up in seconds, too. I find the graphics a little bit dated now, and I'd like some more weapons, but there's no stupid akimbo, far fewer stupid perks and hardly any tubing.
Just try it: you'll find it's a simple, lightweight FPS that does the job very nicely.
i remember the old cod 4 days :] ohh good old time heh, but anyway im still cod 4 player so the are not many hackers maybe one or two encounter a month in my case but everyone literally everyone is just spamming and abusing the grenade launchers upto a point where they just sit in their spawn waiting for someone to run by just to tube them even though there are still good players that dont need the gl to be good :}
play it every day better than any current modern fps including bf3
many servers busy without the stupid restrictions that are in modern games.
the whole reason why this and games like cs will always be popular and games like bf3 will be dead in 6 months time.

lol
whats lol about it ?
the next game will be ushered to you in oct
its life span will be short thats how they want it to be. is it a classic ? = no
most of my friends stopped playing it after ranking cause its shallow and worse than bfbc2. once more have ranked up and relaized that its got no real depth or anythnig really good about it youll see the player count drop off.
its already lost a lot of players in first month.

well there was about 125,000 peak time online in bf3 on pc at launch how many now at peak time in a months time after release ?
75,000
lost nearly half the amount of players in one month !
those stats dont lie. like said once you have ranked up and seen its basically conquest with a cod style mixed game its boring unless you like conquest and the cod style its trying to do is better in cod.
mw3 had lower sales but it has stayed at the same player count roughly online

very true, it doesnt matter what fancy gubins a game has if the core gameplay is weak then people will get bored.
CSS and COD4 are pretty much perfect examples of a great gameplay experience that isnt overly complicated by useless features.
So you're basing your assumption that BF3 will be 'dead in 6 months' due to the amount of players being lower now (one and a half months on, not one) than they were on release date?
This must have happened before, do you have any statistics to back this up?
The Battlefield series had weapon unlocks two years before CoD, and conquest has show for nearly 10 years now that it's a game mode that people keep coming back to because it works, but that's opinion and you can't really call the death of a game based on that, because if you could you'd be being payed a lot of money by game companies telling them where they're going wrong

google 'unlock all weapons cod4'
Funny because it's true, the Battlefield games are just plain boring and I wonder why no one plays them competitively. Hmmmmmmmm.
Went on BFBC2 because Steam downloaded something for it (God knows what) and there were 700 active servers, compared to COD4's 10,000+.
Found the best COD4 server too I think. 50 player cap and no helicopter, it just flies in and then gtfo's again without firing a bullet xD.

This
I also have not touched bf3 in ages. Well I did start it up last night to download the huge patch, I will give it another go when the map pack is released. Hence why I wanted to get the big patch out of the way. I have moved onto RPG's that I have in my backlog. BF3 got boring real quick for me. But actual playing time, don't think I have been in a game for about 3 weeks.

COD4 was fun, definitely the best of the COD MW games, but comparing it to Battlefield games makes little sense. It's like comparing CS to BF2, very different games. The reason we're seeing the player count drop in BF3 is because all the brain damaged COD:MW generation, run around like a monkey and unload whole clips to kill one person, kiddies are slowly losing interest (having extremely short attention spans).

i was going to start a thread about mw2
its on steam now for £9.99 but i don't know if its worth it?
Single player = good, multiplayer = bad.
To clarify, the MP is essentially a decent game (I have 700 hours playtime), but it is plagued with annoying problems and annoying in-game features.

Maybe a reason for some, but not all. I play 1942/bf2 and bfbc2, have played these games most of my life. BF3 is just rubbish, I have never been a COD fan. I just hope the map pack makes it better.
