COD4 multiplayer questions.

Hello.
I've been looking for a new multiplayer FPS to get, but I'm very picky about such things. The only games I'm playing are UT2004 and TF2.

I've got a few questions about Call of Duty 4's multiplayer mode.

1) How much of a lasting appeal? I know it's been out for quite a while, so is it going to be as daunting for a newbie as, say Counter-Strike?
2) Is the perk system really that nice? I'm looking for a game that is going to enocurage me to keep playing for a reason. Does this work as such?
3) How many players are online? Did it dwindle lately or is it really easy to find a good game going?
4) If there's many, do you think they'll still be there in a while?

COd 4 multiplayer is fun and there is still 50 to 100 servers that have 20+ people play on any given time now. The perk system is nice giving you edges depending on weapons and what map you are playing. It has a lot of more depth than counterstrike

1. it's pretty easy to be good at if you are familiar with fast paced fps gamaplay. To be REALLY good, tho, will take alot more effort.

2. personally, i think it's nicely made and rewarding. the best thing about it is that it does not upset the balance of the gameplay.

3. ithasone of the largest, if not the largest, multiplayer communities on pc. TF2 is miles behind in terms of popularity.

4. no. Modern Warfare 2 will be released by the end of this year,and the bulk of the players will surely migrate to the new game.

1. imo its a total newbie game. Doesnt take much skill at all compared to cs. Its also why i hate cod4 :P i guess why so many likes it.

Alright, then. I guess I'll buy the new game when it comes out and then buy MW when it becomes a bit cheaper for SP.
