Modern Warfare 2 PC: No dedicated servers.. wtf

[bruss]

Pretty LAME IMO.

"Infinity Ward's Robert Bowling (aka fourzerotwo), in an interview with BashandSlash.com on October 17th, announced that one of the mainstays of PC multiplayer gaming, dedicated servers, won't be in IW's upcoming sequel to Call of Duty 4. Instead, players will use the unknown 'IW Net' for matchmaking purposes. No dedicated servers means no player mods, no player maps, no organized competitive play, no clan servers, etc., and strips away what makes PC gaming different from console gaming. Many vocal gamers have canceled their pre-orders, and a petition to reverse this decision is already past 86,000 signatures."

sucks, but now you can get a 360 and get online with some of us. wait, aren't you already on my friends list? LOL.

where ya been lately?

[bruss]

i have a 360 and a ps3 homeskillet! I was planning on buying the 360 AND the pc version. I like the pc version cause i can choose to play in servers tailored to my style of gameplay. For instance no damn noobtubes.

Ive been trying to get healthy man.. I have been fighting hodgkins lymphoma for while. Thought i had it beat but i may have some more work to do..

I'm half and half on this

Yeah, I'm pissed about this. The main reason I play cod4 is because there are certain servers that consitently have quality players and smart rules.

With this change, you're thrown into a random group of people, with no choice.

Way to ruin a great game (imo). Obviously those of you console people (I can't understand why anyone would prefer a controller to the accuracy of a mouse) won't have anything to say about it, since it's how all your games are...but it really defeats the purpose of having it on the PC.
