I don't see why dedicated servers are needed. They already fixed the host leaving/ending game thing.

Its not just dedicated servers. IW totally took a shit on their origins, the PC gaming community. They raised the price from $50-$60, then removed dedicated servers (saying IW.net was better). There is no advantage to IW.net over dedicated servers, because stripping dedicated servers basically removes communities, mods, imports more hackers and provides high latencies. IW themselves received 100ms latencies in INTERNAL testing.
To continue the rampage, they removed lean, and put a 9v9 player max, and so much other bull there's no reason any loyal PC gamer shouldn't rage.

BEST BOYCOTT EVAR!
In my opinion, it's very much the same thing as trying to tell Bungie to make it easier to lower your gun. While you can rally a lot of people behind you, you're really not going to change how they do things...

The fact that the feature was added in a few days kinda makes me wonder what the heck they were thinking. Maybe they had planned on adding it anyway but couldnt get it done for the release date so they just said they were not going to include it.

I wouldn't mind boycotting something if that is how it is done.

It's a constant in every equation, it's just usually left off for simplicity.
For instance.....
E = MC2 + MCM
MCM = Multi, Being a Child Molester
Even Einstein knew it.

Its just that child molesters are worthless and count as zero, so for simplicities sake, people nowadays write it is E=MC2

All I;m saying for now is that halo 3 has an excellent server and other companies should follow
the only bad part is when a guy's connection is horrible and screws everybody else over

Unfotunately you have to stay in game chat for the majority of the playlists, or else it doesn't let you play. :thumbdown:

Lol - you can't be in party chat?
Master Debayter

Lol - you can't be in party chat?Yeah. Some playlists require this, like Team Deathmatch and Headquarters. Others, like Ground War, where the entire 8 man party can play together on the same team, allow party chat. Free-for-fall playlists allow party chat too, as well as third person playlists (not gonna spoiler it for you guys though, it's a new addition).

Yeah, it's seriously the worst addition to any game I've ever seen. Allegedly, it's to prevent from people on opposite teams from communicating, but seriously, how often does that happen? At least for me, never in CoD4 or 5.
I'd still recommend getting it at some point though.
Oh, and you can still do private chat.. cool isn't it

There's gotta be a better reason for that. What if I want to talk to the other team? I don't want to "bash" the game, especially because I have never even played it, but that has got to be a shitty "addition"

Dude I am not a CoD fan other than Nazi Zombies but seriously I think MW2 is totally worth it. Some playlists do need you to be in Game Chat but I think that for those playlists it makes sense. Team Deathmatch and Headquarters are all game chat because those are more serious playlists like Halo 3's ranked ones. The better players usually go to them. Now how much do you hate it if none of your friends are online and you want to play Halo online alone but every game you find is filled with people in Party Chat? That sucks. But now when you're playing the more pro playlists you have to be in game chat to talk to your team. But in a playlist like Ground War that is a team game it is a lot less essential to talk to your team so you can go into Game Chat. But seriously I think it makes some sense for the playlists that it is activated on.

Yah, I can't imagine that being a huge problem and if it starts to happen just leave the game.

Yeah, I found boosting in 4 a problem. I found several ppl boosting in tactical. Was one of the most fun games ever. This, is a good addition IMO.

I think MW2 got fked from the beginning...On both versions.
1. 1 shot weapons left in the game.
2. Connection advantage to the max.
3. Maps are camp fests.
4. They fixed nothing from the original, and somehow managed to make it worse.
Still a good game...But damn they could have done better.
Canadians360
11-14-2009, 07:47 PM
I dont see how boosting is all that bad, I mean its not like there are ranks that they couldnt get to anyway over time since its 100% experience based. All they're doing is getting stuff faster, its not like exp is a measure of skill, and they can suck when they get put with others who actually deserve their exp. Honestly why would you ever cut out such a massive feature, to stop such a little issue.
One thing that bugs me is there is never any stored game footage, if they have kill cams and let you watch your opponents kill you how hard would it be to let you watch your game after.
