i haven't played the new one. i don't intend to. i'm waiting for badcompany 2 in march. i won't bother with cod until they make the environments destructable.
as bad ass as that would be, i must admit the new one is better than the old.
You niggers obviously haven't played the PC version of COD4. On PC, MW2 sucks balls in comparison. Mods make up 50% of the servers on COD4/WaW, and 90% of the fun. Just the other day i laughed my ass off in COD4 - I tossed C4 around a corner and took out 5 guys. It
was a user-created map, something MW2 players will NEVER EVER experience.
Plus I can lean around corners..."MW2 was not balanced for leaning".
MW2 is the first game ever designed by marketing/accounting majors...BTW the pre-MW2 COD series has mostly used calculated/mixed client side stuff. If your ping sucks balls, your PC will compensate and people that actually make it to cover don't get killed a second later. I think it's something like it tells the server, and if the time/lag does not correspond, it denies the kill. One big gripe how lag kills in the BF series.
MW2 is complete fail in comparison by using client-hosted games. I just laugh when I see youtube vids of people with 10mbit+ connections just stuttering from one spot to the next due to lag. If you do some searching, the people that get picked to host often will sometimes fire up their torrents to induce lag for a 50+ kill streak.
