Tinker Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Depends what you want, as you have not stated? Will be picking it up soon myself, just for the SP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai-San Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 It most definitely is NOT a MUST buy. You may enjoy the SP but for me it was too run 'n' gun even for a COD title, it almost feels like there is someone behind you pushing you forward if you even pause for breath and a reload. The MP is just a joke, no dedi, 2 player Co-op, it only JUST qualifies for the term MP in my opinion. Graphically it's good, as all COD titles are. But again, a MUST buy, not in my opinion.

Cpl Ledanek Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I'm not a MP player so, NO on that issue I will buy when it drops below $20...$19.99 at best for SP experience If you just want to watch the game play of SP portion, there are plenty at YouTube or Xfire channel.

Hammer Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Single player yes, cuz i have played the rest of the COD games Multi player no no no no never Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halli~SPARTA~ Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Yeah I'll wait for the $20.00 range myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl Ledanek Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 SPOILER ALERT if you wanna save $60 and just watch the the SP gameplay, watch here...I guess I'm not alone with waiting till it's only $20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=warcloud= Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Ok I have read many reviews, Conflicting i should imagine?. If you like a good well polished all out action first person shooter with excellent american & british voice acting, top notch weapons and lots of them, excellent graphics, different mission locations, really good motion capture, cool music score with input from hans zimmer, dolby digital sound, then i would recommend the single player, there is also a spec ops solo single player portion of the game to play. Multiplayer looks a blast and the Special Ops coop 2 player is cool, but i have yet to play modern warfare 2 multiplayer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wireman Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 Ok thanks guys for the feedback, I think I will give it a go for the SP side of the game and not expect great things from the MP aspect but hopefully COOP could still be fun.

=warcloud= Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Too run 'n' gun even for a COD title, it almost feels like there is someone behind you pushing you forward if you even pause for breath and a reload.. That's the beauty of modern warfare 2 ..it's an all out action packed awesome first person shooter, you don't have to rush, it's up to you, but run & gun yeah .... it's the way it's meant to be played, you can take a breather and reload.

CR6 Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I will buy when it drops below $20...$19.99 at best for SP experience I would wait too but in Canada, COD4 (MW1) has never dropped below $40 (or even $50) even until now - dunno what it's like in the States, so you may be waiting a long time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly2442 Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Yeah, here in the US I haven't seen it below 40 dollars in stores. STEAM just had a discounted price for the game but that's kinda different than a physical copy. If the game is selling this well, it'll probably be at least 2 years before it hits the 20 dollar range no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 (edited) Single player yes, cuz i have played the rest of the COD games Multi player no no no no never How wrong i was Got my copy today and was looking forward to playing. I was a bit put out buy the fact you have to have a Steam AC to play the game even in SP mode So started the install 10mins to load steam, another 10mins to update steam... 5 mins to try and find a user name i could actually use!! then finally great load the game, Cant wait now to get stuck in for the night, beer and chips at the ready 40mins!! later and 2 discs the game has loaded So here we go lock 'N' load .......

Tinker Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Sorry to hear Hammer, was not aware you needed to install steam just for SP either. Can help with steam stuff if needed, is pretty reliable for me. Off line mode is available once installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRP 56 Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Got my copy today and was looking forward to playing. I was a bit put out buy the fact you have to have a Steam AC to play the game even in SP mode STEAM for SP is B.S. piled as high and deep as you can get! Why do these companies insist on loading down your PC with a bunch of junk when all you want to do is play the freakin SP part of the game? @#%& Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm finding out out that too with my STEAM accnt when I d/l L4D2 demo...I had more updates than Microsoft Updates. .... buy from you, two yrs from now for $20?

custard~SPARTA~ Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Pfft how can you buy this for the SP none of the COD SP canyou play tactically you have to push forward to stop constant respawn of enemies. Best thing about MW was the awesome customer made maps and the mods or rules that slowed the game down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinker Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Pfft how can you buy this for the SP Well TBH, when you have some free time and you just want kill loads of enemy, this is it. Run in that direction and fire, simple as. No need to think, just sit back and have fun. Not tactical in any way at all, but is just simple straight forward kill fest. Cod2/4/5 SP were awesome for me. GR1 I obviously only play CoOp / No Respawn / Missions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightspeed Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 the problem here is if ppl buy this pos they are just saying to the Devs that its acceptable to produce sub-standard products. games should be improving in depth and available options not going backwards in 2009/10.
