I was going to buy this game on PC until I checked the metacritic score and saw how it was universally panned.
I never had any intention of buying it, but I was entertained by the smear campaign going on. People sure do love their dedicated servers.
It has a 1.3 user score.
That's incredible.
PC gamers are the Baby Boomers of the electronics entertainment world.
Entitled bitches.
Dirty bastards .... all expecting features that are in nearly every successful FPS including this games previous iteration.
quit crying over lost features!
and for only $10 more!
they should pay more for less and shut up about it!
Actually, I think most of us would be happy with just the shut up about it part. Don't buy it if they don't want to, that's fine, but the weeks of whining about it...
Was playing the snow/stealth mission in spec ops and some dogs came running towards my gf and I. I shoot the dog in the head and she's shocked (loves dogs)!
"Oh it's just a german shepherd!"
I say, "Uh yeah, you kill one if you see one." to her dismay.
A second dog jumps on me and I break it's neck, now she's really horrified.
I say, "That's what you do. When a dog gets on you, break that shit!"
A minute or so later she gets pounced and gets her throat torn out.
I think she understands now.
OK, so I broke down and got this because Gamestop had that trade in two games from this list and get MW2 for $20. I liked the first one alright but the mutliplayer didn't do much for me.
But I am loving this one! The first mission was excellent and intense. Can't wait to see what else they have in store for me.
And the multiplayer was great as well. I love all the different things you can change, like your killstreak reward and also getting death streak help. Copycat is really cool.
Feel free to add me as I will be playing this for a long time. Xbox360 gamertage is Stalvos. Just keep in mind that I kinda suck so don't expect much from me. I mean, this is coming from a guy that thinks Copycat is cool so you know I am dying alot.

I just got the last kill of a match so I got to watch myself in slow motion kill a guy with the shotgun attached underneath my M1. Bonus points for awesomeness I guess.

That's the most accurate description I have ever heard of them.
Oh man the irony of a PS3 gamer saying that.
Not that I'm singling you out or anything, but last I checked, John Carmack was lazy and conceited and Gabe Newell was quite possibly the most evil man on the planet.
Fanboys are fanboys, and they're always going to make a tonne of noise. Me, I've pretty much decided I'm not going to pay the extra money for it when I feel it's unwarranted, but bar that, I'm going to leave it at that.
On the airport level, while it was a bit gruesome, I thought it was an excellent way to show the bad guy being quite heartless and using you to start a war. Here you thought you were just "doing what you had to do" and you played right into his hands and look what it started. While graphic indeed, and it's supposed to make you feel very conflicted about doing it for the greater good, but then look what happens. Best intentions and all that.

He is saying that PS3 and 360 gamers are more than capable of the same bullshit eilitism. I'm sure he's not directing it at you. His opening statement is kind of rude, though.

Pretty much what I was getting at. Like I said, I wasn't taking aim at you specifically, but every time I hit up a Left 4 Dead thread anywhere there's a significant PS3 presence, I can already predict the results. Most of the time it's also personal attacks like Gabe Newells so fat and lazy and stuff.
Or how about Gears of War 1, when the PC was getting exclusive content? The sheer amount of bitching over that was beyond belief, and that was in a thread dedicated to the PC version. It kept going even after Gears 2 was released as a guaranteed 360 exclusive. Crap man, these days there's even whining about how evil and stupid Blizzard hasn't even got current plans for a 360 release of Starcraft 2, and that's a freaking RTS.
Fanboy elitism works just as well wherever you go.
I will apologise if I was rude though, that was not my intention. But then again, it's not like the OP wasn't just as rude calling PC gamers entitled bitches. Whoo, boy, no problem there at all.
Multi is fantastic in this game. Some of the tools they give you to really help your buddies out are awesome.
I know eventually people will be smart enough to shoot my friends instead of me while I walk forward with my riot shield like a lumbering giant. But until then...awesome town.
Heart beat sensor? Badass. Nothing is as fun as tracking down bad guys and calling out to buddies where their location is.
In fact, i hope to someday make a squad that combines the two. Have someone lead with the shield while two others have heart beat sensors, one watching the rare as we sweep through some areas. Stupid snipers would probably mess our day up though.

Agreed. It just sounded more directed at him than the rest of your post did, but that's just me interpreting wrong.
Anyways, MW2. Today I shall have it. Still deciding on a platform though.
SO, hey infinity ward what the godammit? Couldn't invite my friends to join a party at all yesterday without spinning around 3 times naked and sacrificing a goat. "patch to address problem by friday" well gg patched this morning and what's that can't fucking connect at all to the servers COOL! I'm gonna go play borderlands since they seem to have broken the PS3 online funcitonality, and the story, while good, was roughly 6 hours long.
I would be less pissed if I hadn't bought this pretty much specifically to play with my group of friends around town.

I certainly didn't mean it that way. I'm just sick of being called an elitist because I don't want to get the game at launch, and I genuinely feel IW (or activision) dropped the ball on the PC release.

Man, is it bad that I prefer to use the sniper rifles without a silencer just because it sounds so lame with one on? Who cares if everyone on the map knows I'm using the Barrett; they'll die soon anyways.

So in my first multiplayer game ever ever, on my first life, I killstreak to care package which contains...AC130. I then proceed to go on a killing rampage.

I'll add you to my friends list so we can be dissatisfied together, and not play together for a week or more, it'll be great. In all seriousness i'll add ya, maybe we can play borderlands or another game that functions properly online.

Nice! I've seen only two AC130s in the game so far. Having shells firing at you is terrifying.
The best I've done so far is get a Predator missile killstreak, called it in, then dropped my care package I had stored up which turned out to be another Predator. Right after that second missile a nice Harrier came in to help me.:P

I actually prefer to be on the ground when an AC-130 is up. The sound of that 105mm flying towards you, then exploding is just terror incarnate, and makes you glad that it's America that has those things, and not the opposition.
I've also pulled an EMP from a care package; that was comical, because I saw a guy sight in with an EOTech, and he just stood there wondering why he couldn't see it. Then he was turned into meaty swiss cheese.

God I was in a warehouse and turned around at the sound of the shot to see three of my teammates who were standing near the door get thrown back by the blast outside.
I hate the new "creek/overgrown" map which is like huge, has some houses at the corners, and a cave thing in the middle. It's pretty much the worst map ever.

My first multiplayer match ever I had the last kill, and got treated to the new last kill in slow motion camera. It was a grenade, and it was awesome seeing the guy I killed fly in the air to his death and the guy next to him shield his eyes from the blast.

The first care package I got, I threw down on the ground next to a wall and waited for it to come down.
I then see a yellow Predator Missile icon at the top of my screen, look up and see the crate lying on top of a non accessible fire escape.
As you can imagine, I frowned quite heavily at this.

Once again. We shuold have split the threads post launch. One for console only one for PC only.
Enjoyed the very beginning of the campaign and then went right into split screen with the girlfriend. Man is she a ruthless killer.
Really enjoyed th AC130 spec op mission from both perspectives.
Jesus they still make strategy guides?
What the hell will it say. "See that bad guy, shoot him till he dies. Do this lots more."
I guess that guy spent his cash on the strat guide and his nifty gear, seeing as he left without the Prestige Edition...
NVGs would have completed the look.
"Oh it's just a german shepherd!"
I say, "Uh yeah, you kill one if you see one." to her dismay.
