Bad news about Modern Warfare 2

[QUOTE="Swiftstrike5"][QUOTE="OoSuperMarioO"]For the record, don't go into a Blizzard game expecting high end graphics, to do so will only disappoint you.

Except the linear presentation it had was acceptable in the first installment during 2000.. I have already stated earlier I AM FINE WITH LINEAR GAMES.. Get this through your skull, its just CoD4 takes this to the extreme.. With outdated mechanics.. Where they throw endless amounts of enemies at you during extrmeely narrow regions, where your cut off from apparent other areas due to a 2 foot picket fence.. And the stupid AI specifically targets you 80% of the time.. What narrow places you had, nothing you could interact with, barrels didn't even knock over.. and you COULDN'T EVEN OPEN DOORS you had to get your team mates to do it.. Its at best trying to be a interactive movie with its good presentation.. The only problem is games such as Bioshock rival it, (as well as being some what linear but gave you choices).. I don't know about you guys but the fact that the enemies were dumb as bricks, and they flooded you with it looks like half the population of Russia and the Middle East.. It just got completely boring in the end. There were some cool scenes, but imo it is a superbly over-rated game.. I at least have some expectations with the game, such as having mildly intelligent AI for having such narrow areas.. Having the environment actually interactiable.. Having realistic barriers.. I don't care if its a locked door, its far more enjoyable knowing I can't go through locked doors, than finding out that a 2 foot tall wooden fence is stopping me from going any where..

Then don't buy it!

Crying up a storm isn't going to change the CoD series. You act like you've never seen a CoD game before.

CoD4 sold 10million+ copies. You're asking them to fix something that isn't broken.

If they get rid of the infinite enemies, thats a big improvement. But my issue was COD4 was the online. It was laggy, and i hated the perks. I don't want perks. remove those and i'm happy

JumpingMirrior

lol that's never going to happen.. sorry bub but you're destined to hate post cod4 call of duty multiplayer :(

I can easily accept that people don't like CoD4 because it's linear. Hell, I didn't like CoD:WaW. I didn't even start this... he quoted me regarding how bad CoD4 was. Then you complain that I'm suppressing his opinion for arguing back... hysterical.

Bad news about Modern Warfare 2. It's being released.

*****SPOILER AHEAD!!!!******

It wasn't clear if he died, the medics were resuscitating him. And he was a captain in WW2, he's obviously immortal.

(sorry for format change barange, it wont let me post with the spoiler thingy)

This was what I was going for. Linear gameplay is a design choice. Knowing the game is going to be linear, just like every other CoD, and complaining about it is pointless (don't buy the game). Just like you know Blizzard games will probably never have Crysis level graphics. Starcraft was technologically inferior to the time. Homeworld (1999) and Total Anniliation (1997) are perfect examples. Both games had 3d enviroments with real-time calculations of projectiles. Starcraft may have an artistic approach, but that was a design choice. I didn't complain about it because it's what blizzard is. They choose to work on art and gameplay over technology aspect of their games. Swiftstrike5

I loved captain price, but really whats important is imo the multiplayer.

Had to take down the scans buds due to they were removed. Here's a repost from a different source.

There are far better shots available through the web. Nevertheless, Modern Warfare 2 looks marvelous!

I sense film grain... uh oh.

Or maybe it was the scanning.

Considering the various console spin-offs, this is the bazillionth game.

COD4 and 5 are a far cry from the first two. They are a lot more cinematic, and that's why we like them. It's unfair to say they're basically the same game, it's like saying Prey is identical to Quake 4. There are obvious similarities, but the show is different enough.

Baranga

yeah i suppose, but the cinematics / stories / set pieces have never really gripped me in the same way as cod1, uo and cod 2 did. its like all shiny bells and whistles as a substitute for gameplay innovation for me. ill still end up buying it anyway when theres nothing else out that interests me but, after crysis, id like to see those obviously talented cod devs try their hand at making a whole new fps with a bit of innovation and invention
