It doesn't seem like that was your intended use of the word "casual"...to simply refer to play time that isn't competitive. I got a more derogatory vibe from it...like you're derisively calling MW2 fans not real gamers.

Wow.
Pah. I linked that on the previous page.. But yes, ridiculous. At this time if you join a game of domination or 3rd person team tactical it hurls you into a private game with about 16 people and it's always on that map. rust. Which is tiny. Also there is no time limit so it runs til someone gets a nuke. This game is pretty broken atm

Uh? I have 24h of domination playtime and this didn't happened to me one single time. Or did I misunderstand you?

Man, this game is so poor in some aspects. I've never seen a multiplayer component so flawed.

Ok, im done till they fix the fuckn matchmaking, right now it is so damn broken. Ive been put into private games, different gametypes than the one i selected, its combined ground war into free for all to have an 18 player rape match on rust.
Think ive won maybe 3 games in the past 48 hrs and my K:D count today is around -70 (down from 0.96 to 0.95 total stats), keep gettin put onto shit teams that are in the process of being raped intot he ground or are half afk or lagging so much (red pings for the entire game) that its actually difficult to quit the game.

Also landed into one of the inifinte ammo games where it was grenade spam at all times, could hardly even spawn between nades.

LOL. don't be ridiculous man.

It's really amazing to see all the haters in this thread. a month old game, with millions of people playing it, will naturally see it's 2 or 3 glitches exposed...

I've played the game for a substantial amount of time, so I've had enough of a taste to form my own opinion.

But thanks for your concern.

These glitches are HUGE, and probably would have been exposed sooner if IW had done another MP Beta like they did with COD4. I don't think I've ever seen a multiplayer game this poorly safeguarded.

Matchmaking on the PC: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pBQO3qkrgQ

And actually, to think that the MP in MW2 is good, even without the glitches... you must be out of your mind.

Wow, this is really the downfall. the game became so popular that the it seems to be cool to hate it now.

so now the game, even with glitches ironed out, is bad. care to explain?

Yeah, I don't agree with this statement. Glitches aside(which I haven't run into yet), matchmaking has been working well, I've experienced probably less than 5 laggy matched that were soon remedied by switching hosts, killstreak rewards are less of a nuissance than in CoD4, plus it's been fun as hell.

Akimbo 1887s are probably the worst part of the game, and I've probably only encountered those a small handful of times.

fully agree. also the 1887 part. people here are taking these complains way out of proportion. It's absolutely senseless.

You are out of your mind, or just extremely lucky. I get way more shit games than I don't. Every third game the connection drops to a red bar and sometimes the host migration fails. I need 3-5 tries to find a good lobby. That's 20-40 mins I waste on every time I want to play, most of the time I just quit trying because it's that frustrating. No region filter, and it seems like the host is chosen by a dice roll, I've never been host and I'm sitting behind a 32mbit connection. And that's just the failing MM part of it.

The whole concept of the MP is meant to be unbalanced. For the first 25 level it's been a grind to get cold blooded and then to level 30 to get a stinger. To new or casual players (like me) that's the same as saying: "You're cannon fodder for the ridiculous kill streaks of the camping kids. Why? Fuck you, that's why!" On top of that, Akimbo 1887 is the most unbalanced shit in any shooter I played. That's not blowing it out of proportions, that's just straight fact. You can rush in like a brainless maniac and still pull off an impressive K/D ration, with people with a little sense behind those guns you can pretty much lock down areas of the maps on your own.

And then the spawns. The last time I "played" I got spawned in the same spot over and over again with a chopper gunner a few feet behind me.

None of this shit was a problem in CoD4. In fact the only thing IW have improved on CoD4 is getting rid of the Martyrdom and (for the most part) Last Stand perks. It was just a better game.

Unlimited ammo hack spreading like AIDS?

How is this even possible? Not gonna touch the game again, I believe. This is getting out of hand. By the time they have a patch out I'll be playing ME2...

I thought the whole world went mad Viginiti.. then I read your posts. Bravo.

I look forward to seeing how they handle the sequel.. or how they handle Treyarch even. Despite the fact that I'm rather critical of the design choices they've made in MW2, I still think that they have the basics right. The "flow" of combat in Call of Duty is tremendously good, the hit detection, the pacing.. everything. Will they take some of the criticism to heart, or will they just follow the same pattern as MW2 and increase the level cap and add a few dozen new items and break the game even further? I guess only time will tell.

On the subject of glitches: They're a helluva thing. Every game has them, some games take it to a whole new level. Some glitches enhance gameplay, even. In Call of Duty (every COD) you can cancel the reload animation early, which is effectively the original "active reload," is that cheating? Hardly.. it's become part of the game. The same thing goes for strafe jumping.. there's no way it was ever intentional, but it's been adopted by players as official gameplay.
