Modern Warfare 2 Gameplay Footage. Spoilers within, click accordingly.

I remember seeing in videos someone being able to use a UAV by holding down the X button, despite having predator missle on standby on the d-pad. It's nice that they are allowing rewards to stack and carry over.
 
Yes, you would still have them. However, any kills they were to get wouldn't count towards your killstreak during your new life. (this prevents exploits such as using you AC130 to get another AC130)

This will be an excellent change.
 
Hopefully the skull mask becomes popular in airsoft after this game comes out; I have a few to sell. :lol Then again, COD4 gear had near zero effect on airsoft/PB gear sales, I guess gamers are fat and uninterested in action combat sports.

I would think going to play some paintball 'cause COD is so dope would get you laughed off the field. Imagine some jobber going "Let's do dis" at the start of every match.

Followup question from somebody.
Aww... so no more getting a chopper, dying, and then using it to get an airstrike, etc? =(

Why do you guys bash Junior Members so much? Do guys not want any new members in the GAF community?

Sorry, I just had to get that off my chest...
Quality post, junior member

There is a learning curve to being a good poster and it generally extends way beyond the junior member time penalty.

It's like evolution.

I've been a member for a while and the quality of my posts have gone way down. But on a positive side, their creepyness levels are reaching new heights.

It can work both ways.

Some juniors start off bright eyed and bushy tailed and slowly get beaten down by the constant fanboyism and game wars.

Some juniors wait so long to get approved that they think the proper routine is to come in guns blazing with a trail of "telling it like it is". Those people generally get banned relatively quickly.

I don't know, we supply smoke grenades, tripwire mines (paint load) and riot shields (the type you see in the MW2) on our field, and match types are TDM, capture the flag or scenario based. Aside from a lack of instant respawn, grenades and air support, the distance isn't too great between these different forms of war entertainment, and a few people in each group always reference video games between rounds. In any event, I had expected that certain modifications and options would have been made more popular by COD4, but it never happened.

There was a time when comments such as "quality post, junior member" would have earned you junior status, but I guess that's not in effect these days.

That multiplayer footage looks awesome. Their outdoor lighting system seems to be improved quite a bit.

The straight gameplay looks great, but the amount of options (deathstreak, killstreak) and new support, defense and attack rewards is down right confusing. I always valued COD4 MP for its simplicity, we'll see how this turns out. Ironically, I'm plenty more gassed about SP this time around, for that reason. This just seems OCD.

Yeah but no.

But anyway, it's stupid to make fun of the Junior status.
 
Unfortunately I've had to recently switch from cable to DSL, and playing COD4 the difference is extremely noticeable. Is DSL supposed to be this bad for gaming? Going to be hard to do much but break even in MW2 MP with this :/

I can't speak for DSL in the US, but I play over DSL here in Norway, and I get mostly good ping/connection.
 
Just FYI, the commercial on this evening will be one minute like the commercial was on TNT. The full two minute extended version will be online after that.

Not sure if this is what he meant, but in December 2008, the list of unapproved members was deleted, and we had to register again. I originally registered in July 2008, but my join date still says December 2008.

Hopefully it shows new MP maps... \o/


It will almost certainly be constructed as a video for mass consumption. Which probably means quick cutting spliced shots of the single player. Its a commercial after all.
 
Neverender said:
402 said it will be 'the one we've been waiting for' or something, but if it's just single player I don't really care at all :lol
Actually he said it's "the one I've been waiting for". Of course it's Campaign. They are not going to show a killstreak video on TV during a football game. :lol Also, just look at the screenshot, it's Campaign.

Yeah I didn't know it was a TV ad, just thought it was a new video. Oh well.

Thank you.

It was sort of obvious it was coming back but the first confirmation that claymores (and C4) are back was given in an interview.
Nice! I like C4. I used to use it often, but I went away from the game a bit and now I'm trying to use it effectively again.

Is anyone else being bombarded by spam messages about a beta?
On PSN? I got the same message. Matter of fact, a lot of spam lately...
 
Teetris said:
Did that reveal making us ''change the way we think about gaming alltogether'' come out yet?

I hope it's every bit as good as
press X to use equipment
was. What a gamechanger! :D
 
Gaah, waiting for the trailer. Confirmed from people who already have seen it that it's a campaign trailer most likely.

Put together a tribute to COD4 video, anxiously waiting for MW2. It's not too often a single game can keep your attention for two years. It combines themes from the movie Aliens, and singleplayer/multiplayer elements from COD4. Hope you guys like it!
