Did Modern warfare 2 flop on the pc? ....NOT!!!

Believe it or not MW2 outsold its predecessor in sales in the first week making it the most sucessfull pc version. Yes i am talking about the pc version, i guess the boycott was an epic fail. But it amazes me how those pc forums dont resemble the reallity of the pc fanbase.

Anyway... long story short, we gonna get plenty cod games on the pc like mw3 and IW has just turned into another developer that focuses on consoles and makes money on the pc like the devil.

So hate it or love it, boycott it or not, get ready for more cod games on the pc ;)

I guess selling millions of copies makes something good.

Crap, I better go buy some Britney Spears and Lady Gaga before someone thinks I have bad taste

This. Most people didn't care about the $60 price tag or lack of dedicated servers, or didn't even know about them. Hence the reason why message boards across the internet have been getting flooded with people asking why their online gameplay is so laggy, why they have to connect to new hosts mid-match, etc.

I'm sure at least 10-20% of those boycotters that have signed the petition have bought the game.Pvt_r3d

Only?

:shock: What all those things supose to mean? The game did not flop on the pc like you said, end of story. No matter how you bash it and people rate it terrible etc,etc and everyone said its not worth getting etc,etc. Still the game rocked in sales, this just proves that this forum is not a trustworthy source of what the pc fanbase likes.dakan45

Dakan, you are probably one of the most annoying trolls on these forums.

Also I'd like to see the ACTUAL sale records, I don't want to see a "news post" about it. I can make a news post and tell people it's acurate because I wrote it.

This is unfortunate.Lonelynight

LOL i did not write the article, but anyway i guess you think i am a troll because i post that, but if biggest_losser posted it?

Anyway sorry for posting something you dont like, but how this is wrong? The pc gamers did bought the game didnt the? So i am a troll for being one of them and not one of those pc gamer wannabes in this forum who bash everything like its 100% right to do so? 8)

Atleast i can be happy for once.:) dakan45

well this isn't the only occasion that you have REPOSTED info we all know about, but the fact that your arguments are always based on something so weak that it makes me angry to read your posts.

It sold poorly compared to the 360 and even PS3 versions. That makes it somewhat of a flop.

[QUOTE="dakan45"] Atleast i can be happy for once.:) Lonelynight

Most gamers in general never visit message boards so I don't see how this news, assuming that it's true and not more PR gibberish, is an indictment against anyone here who refuses to buy a neutered FPS at an inflated price.

Actually, yeah, if people stopped buying them they would have to change or go out of business. That's pretty much how economics work.

We just cant do anything about and everyone is doing the same thing :(dakan45

But everybody is not doing the same thing: Dedicated Servers for AvP. Although it's kind of disappointing that something PC gamers have enjoyed for the past 10+ years now merits its own press release. Sad, sad, sad...

Congratz matey , support a rubbish port , make fun of the community and keep being a mindless fanzombie.And to answer your question why it doesnt resemble the reality of the fanbase let me give you 2 reasons :

1st.There are people like you , reactionary , diehard users who buy the game.

2nd.Most of the pc users arent interested in/cant have access to forums , community websites etc , hence the misinformation.(aka they got drifted by the hype)

your tone and sarcasm of your post disgust me

This makes no SENSE! The PC market made the most sales. How can a company like IW ignore the amount of income that they will be getting from there? Also, not everyone does that, Bioware does not, Blizzard does not, Valve does not, Indie developers are becoming more and more popular. These are all developers that care about their fanbase and strive to make their games worth while to play. Iantheone

I dont like your tone of hate too, all you proved is that more and more people are like me and less like you the so called "hardcore pc gamers"

Lol...

1st.Why are they console focused?

2nd.Why DA:O has terrible optimisation?

3rd.The argument about Blizzard and Valve is stupid and incoherent ; It doesnt matter when they release their games but how the sales do.

Yeah 2 developers against all the rest, its good to know taht avp will ahvd dx11 and dedicated servers, i hope the game is equally good since i was tracking it from the beginning, also its good to know that bad company 2 will have lean and dedicated servers but that wont change things like "no dedicated servers for rage" and the most other gamedevelopers that go in the same boat.. 90% of the multiplatforms i played the last 2 years were console focused and cheap ports. I think the situation is getting worse and not better.dakan45

I agree that the situation is indeed getting worse but that doesn't mean I have to accept it and it certainly doesn't mean I will support it, especially at a jacked up price. By purchasing these hackneyed ports PC gamers are simply shooting themselves in the foot and I will simply never understand that.

Oh ya, and the boycott was not an epic fail. Other developers are using it to their advantage by advertising the features that they are leaving in, like dedicated servers or lean. This shows that some developers do listen to what the fans want.Iantheone

Prove .. right...

Let me tell you something , to prove needs a logical sentence ;

Your response ignored my 2 points and went on to predicative remarks , gg

3rd.The argument about Blizzard and Valve is stupid and incoherent ; It doesnt matter when they release their games but how the sales do.

1) you telling me jade empire and mass effect are not console focused?

2)For those dated and i mean dated graphics, the requirements are showing its an optimized game? Mass effect looked and run much better. Its bioware starting to neglecting the pc version from optimazation factor. I guess we cant include the port factor because its not a port. We all know they could make much better graphics/optimization for the pc version but they didnt. Because it wont be a sales factor.

3) Sales wise valve is good but they sell recycled hl2 games and l4d, they are no better than IW :lol: Also its STILL a small studio after all those earnings. Blizzard is printing money with wow so theyre is no point at making games more often.dakan45

1) Well, JE and ME were published by MS , so p\obviously they would be console focussed. Me is moe of action rpg rather than console focussed

2) It doesn't has dated graphics, tell me a name that looks quite better than DA :O in top down view (and runs nicely on all kinds of rig) . It runs nicely on even quite old hardwares , so how is it badly optimised

3) games Valve made from 2006, Ep 2, L4D (new IP ) , Portal (new IP) , TF 2 ( new game by Valve) and what has IW made till now - CoD , CoD and more CoD, so how are they same ?
