Ahh MW2 FTW. Got my Prestige Pack, the No Russian stage is awesome!!! The NVGs aren't too bad either, but then again I have used far better NVGs before at work. For a game add-in, not too bad. I'm sure I can annoy someone with them.

Those that think a second set of matching servers in the US won't effect them because they are on console...well we'll see.

Generally when a master server responds with servers it has found the list is populated with the servers closest to the master servers first, because they are closer so it takes less time. So when you have a master server on the other side of the Earth and you can't see the list of servers available you are at the mercy of the logic that the IW matching system will use which will most likely be optimized for, you guessed it, the US.

There's a reason they added server lists to L4D.

Also most consle players won't be able to tell the difference because FPS on console is so damn slow. I notice a difference between a sub 30 and a 50 or greater ping in my game play on PC, it's obvious and frustrating and I have changed ISPs over less.

As it has been explained it is P2P with a negotiated connection through IW servers in the US.

They really should have hired a network engineer instead of Bowling.

Couldn't agree more.

Definately not a game i will be purchasing.

No dedicated servers = fail.

Every game i can think of that does not allow at least modding/custom maps sucks balls in the online department.

Some of the BEST games of all time have been those with brilliant online components, this "inhouse" matching system will fail, just like all other attempts over the years have failed.

just completed single player in 5 hours and 18 mins. only on regular.

was pretty good. not long enough again though.

now it's time to rank up in MP.

When did i become a nerd?

Just finished Campaign on hardened some really epic bits which i loved.. People bitch about the story being hard to follow but I thought it was good. It kinda just ends which shitted me off means I have to wait another 2 years to continue it ARGH.

Mucked around on spec ops but I'm not really a big fan of it because they skimped on the single-player for more enhanced multi-player crap.. stupid Infinity Ward.

I've played for about 2 hours on pc mp so far...

first game within 10secs i had the awesome host migration lol About 1/4 of the games i have been in are affected by this, got thrown into an american game aswell so much for searching for best ping?!?!

Once you find a room with some1 that can host its great fun but just getting there is the problem, no dedicated servers is epic fail.

Yep - this is the problem EVERYONE said would happen.

But as usual, ignorant developers said it would be the "best" system ever concieved... ye fken right.

If that is happening already, then forget online for PC.

Games decent enough, I might be able to live with the dedicated servers... and no mods... and no lean. But the attitude of the developers is what makes it to much for me to take.

"Moriarte: Ignoring IW.net, is the PC version a direct port of the console version?

Mackey-IW: No, PC has custom stuff like mouse control, text chat in game, and graphics settings."

Yes, mouse control. Thank you for being so Kind IW, and not making us buy a bloody controller :happy:

Guess i'll pick it up when its cheaper.

    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
