If you had been following Modern Warfare 2, you probably know by now what’s upcoming for PC gamers as things stand. Nothing but a pile of horse shit if you ask me. The reason of all this, well our long anticipated Modern Warfare 2 will not have a dedicated server support, you know what that essentially means ? No clan matches, No tourneys, No competition, a lot of lag, no mods, and no custom maps, all shit all the way.
All they have done is making another battle.net copy IW.net which will be handling the online part of the game via match making, the new feature introduced in the game.
This feature is basically for console users and has been part of different multiplayer console games. So you know by now, they don’t give a shit about you “The PC Gamers”. So why should you care about them ? why not leave them a message by canceling your Pre Order may be ?. Why not ? When they are deleting the posts about the reactions of the PC Gamers. Oh yes! you heard me dear, they are doing it as you are reading this post.
This post on infinity ward forums was by a PC gamer asking to cancel your PC MW2 pre order. That was in response to their lame decisions regarding PC version of the game, and was deleted after the flamy bunch of reactions of PC community.
The boy didn’t go down that easily, made another post on infinity ward forums asking to sign a petition to Infinity Ward to add Dedicated Server Support in the game. Well you can sign the petition here MW2 Dedicated Server Petition. Be part of the change, don’t let PC gaming die that easily if that motivates you ?
I mean offense to all of the infinity Ward guys, and above all I have canceled my pre order of the game. Quite frankly being a part of piracy hit nation I still went for a legit copy 
Anyway if that’s the way infinity ward wants to have it then so be it I am better off, and so you should be.
So let’s just simply boycott Modern Warfare 2 as things stand, to remind Activision and Infinity Ward about the fact that PC gamers were the one who took this franchise to a place where it is today and may be clear their pathetic vision.
Yeah lets do it,,
BATTLEFIELD :@ better
Curse these Noobs………who gives a shit about single player if thats what they were thinking :S
I am already planning to switch to Battlefied.. All that fuss about the game and it does shit at the very end @ Modern Warfare 2.
I DONT know wat r they doing… but that will only hurt them .. the developers .. just look at cod5 … that came n vanished .. if infinity ward have done this they know the outcomes … lets see wat will be the position after the launch how it will damage MW2 PC multiplayer … i think they have to reconsider .. there decision
Yea…im all for boycotting MW2 as well=)
Andd as far as playing other games is concerned…Ghost Recon was awlays my fav tactical shooter…but it IS a little advanced xD
battlefield badcompany 2 >> all
wtf!!!:S what r they thinkin totally outa mind theyr totally neglectin pc gamers:(
emm… sure! lets do it!
errr… BTW I recently pre-ordered a copy for myself from amazon and half of the MM clan too =p
and I pre-ordered 5 more for WOG Giveaway ( milestone celebrations), lol.
I’ll try to cancel because it has been like two days. I hope I get the refund!!
I’ll try and switch my orders to Battlefield or left4dead 2 there was a good deal on both.
Don’t hate me if they don’t refund. I’ll stick to my orders in that case =P
They were very clever to announce this so late. More than Half of the international gaming community has pre-ordered a copy!!
@ usman
Did you check out the recent promotion by direct 2 drive? Ghost recon was like $5! =P
@all
Since were only boycotting MW2, cod5 is not bad… with the new map packs. Its actually quite fun.
Update:
Cancelled all my pre-orders for MW2!
what the:o…… BF BC2 ftw:D <3
In other words…. cod4 MP will live xD
Good Going Mavey PC Gamers should stick together
gg
A poem by a PC Gamer with MW2 Situation in Context, Originally posted at kotaku…
By GarbageDonkey
A long, long time ago…
I can still remember
How dead silence used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could frag those noobies’ ass
And maybe they’d rage quit after a while
But October made me shiver
With every word Four Ought Two delivered
I.W. changed their mindset
The blogosphere was upset
I can’t remember if I cried
Were all these game blogs telling lies?
I wasn’t ready for the ride
The day Mod Warfare died.
So bye-bye, Call of Duty franchise.
When dedicated is so hated
Tourney, gaming will die
Before that day, we thought that things would be fine
Singin’ ,”This’ll be the game that I buy.”
“This’ll be the game that I buy”
Did you think PC got too much love?
And users thought they were far above –
Things like a current gen console?
Do you need so much control –
With leveled play fields for the whole?
Why’d you leak important news this slow?
Well I know that you’re in love with Steam
But X-Fire still works it seems
With servers we can’t choose
Man we’ll all be singin’ the blues
The Internet had gone amok
Pre orders falling like Nintendo ducks
We all knew we were out of luck
The day Mod Warfare died
I started singin’
“Bye-bye, Call of Duty franchise.”
When dedicated is so hated
Tourney, gaming will die
Before that day, we thought that things would be fine
Singin’ ,”This’ll be the game that I buy.”
“This’ll be the game that I buy”
Now for years we’ve been here on our own
And mods get released by the drove
That’s how it’s supposed to be.
When Treyarch popped onto the scene
With a coat they borrowed from L4D
And a big sign that read “Come and see!”
Oh but while the sales were looking down
The ladders threw it to the ground
The leagues court had adjourned;
Cod-2 was to return!
To some this seemed a little harsh
But most thought it’d never leave a mark
But we got the bite and not the bark
The day, Mod Warfare died.
We were singin’
“Bye-bye, Call of Duty franchise.”
When dedicated is so hated
Tourney gaming will die
Before that day, we thought that things would be fine
Singin’ ,”This’ll be the game that I buy.”
“This’ll be the game that I buy”
Nuclear winter world left in splinters
Bethesda calmed us with a Fallout shelter
DLC was comin’ fast
Snipers and spies hiding in the grass
The players tried to idle round’ for hats
With inventory system on the sidelines in a cast
Everyone waited for C.O.D. news
As halos filled up TF2
Flag Runner made us dance
Oh you were waiting for your chance!
Silence fell across the field
The sickening plan finally revealed
Emoticons couldn’t be concealed
The day Mod Warfare died
We started singin’
“Bye-bye, Call of Duty franchise.”
When dedicated is so hated
Tourney gaming will die
Before that day, we thought that things would be fine
Singin’ ,”This’ll be the game that I buy.”
“This’ll be the game that I buy”
Bash and Slash gathered in one place
For a platform lost in cyberspace
With millions of worried fans
We all tuned in with a few left clicks
Let the hosts get through their introductory kicks
R. Bowling Tellin’ us about his plans
As the webcast played there on the page
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
No company born in hell
Could make this bullshit sell!
And as the flame wars climbed throughout the night
Increasing attacks with increasing spite
The console fanboys laughed with delight
The day Mod Warfare died.
They were singin’,
“Bye-bye Call of Duty franchise.”
When dedicated is so hated
Tourney gaming will die
Before that day, we thought that things would be fine
Singin’ ,”This’ll be the game that I buy.”
“This’ll be the game that I buy”
When no one heard from Four o’ two
We looked to Blizzard for some news
But they just smiled and turned away
I went on to some CEVO boards
Where I competed years before
But the mods there said they just couldn’t play
And in the servers, the players screamed
Map makers cried, and modders steamed
No words typed out, or spoken
Could make the game unbroken
The genre I admired the most
Was quickly fading into a ghost
To own the game – but not the host
The day Mod Warfare died.
And we were singing,
“Bye-bye, Call of Duty franchise.”
When dedicated is so hated
Tourney, gaming will die
Before that day, we thought that things would be fine
Singin’,”This’ll be the game that I buy.”
“This’ll be the game that I buy”
They were singing,
“Bye-bye, Call of Duty franchise.”
If dedicated so hated
Tourney gaming will die
Before that day, we thought that things would be fine
Singin’ ,”This’ll be the game that I buy”
5$ for a GhostRecon!!!
Ppl guy that and lets make a legit server:D
There will be more to come…..Total and pure business
Those were old days when fans were considered as major deciders but today fans are replaced by money and profit
Worst Thing ever in the cod series :S
@ Usman lets rather wait for Bad Company 2.:P
@Kid this is an Epic Fail, it will be same thing that happened to battlefield sequel before battlefield 2 which was controversial for so many reasons… Battlefield game before Battlefield 2 that is.
wtf bro. we were planning to have our clan back in mw2 but…. f**k iw
:/ hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
wth!
is it The End?
cool!
Very lame….. They waited until everybody had preoder before they released that news…
Flashpoint Dragon rising is going down the drain because of that decision and MW2 will be doing the same….. it doesnt make sense
Boycott Modern Warfare2.com – boycottmodernwarfare2.com
HI MAAZ !!! LOL
It’s an article not a dating spot
@ Zarah Khan @Maaz
but guys koi pata nahi launch kay khuch arsaaay baad they do give a patch for dedicated servers and all hope for the best
united we stand… changes, yes we can!
I returned both my unopened copy and book for $80 to BB. I informed them that alone last yr I spent over $3000 on harware, comps, video cards etc alone. What was the point to all that if I have to play on a site that deprives my entire gameing experience. I might as well just buy an xbox.
I think if we let the Big Guy know on OUR side (alienware: dell comp, graphics card geforce, servers, the list is endless, THEY will have MUCH to say to the gaming manufacturers about their dismissal.
I’ve heard it often from reliable sources that FPS games have driven the comp and hardware industry, demanding greater graphics, processors, os etc. Why would anyone DO all this unless they had quite an investment.
IW, R. Bowling, Steam etc may not take us seriously (I’ve read several taunts from console gamers, “quit with the petitons, boycotts already! They dont care; they will make enough money from console gamers” and far more disparaging statements”
They want the Money? What do you think Alienware, comp gamer rigs, geforce, best buy, amazon.com…what do THEY have to say to R. Bowling?
Kiss it. This must send an unequificable message to the gaming manufacturers this is not a good move. Make a port someone for the console players to play with US. If they already cracked the game to make DS already, than port console to US. Once they see what WE get, they will piss their little pants…and of course, they can open all the “private server” on their machines and host their little “9v9″ games to their hearts content.
I myself am sending complaint (intelligent) to all the hardware manufacturers who have made big bucks of us…now its time for THEM to support US…
