Hello,

Well, is it? No this is not a crazy fangirl thing, where I am fighting with you on how good it is. I just want to know what was so wrong with it for the simple fact that I want to buy it but I do not have a lot of money to waste. Can anyone tell me why it is so horrible? How down hill can it go from COD 4? Just seeking advice is all (from real people, not critics). :)

Hackers, and campers, other than that i love it, still play it from time to time. If you are looking for a good multiplayer fps then gett bfbc2.

Honestly i got tired of it because i played the living heck out of CODMW 1. The campaign is kind of short but to be honest we all came for the multiplayer.The campaign is pretty good while it lasts though.

The multiplayer is better than CODMW 1, However you will get frustrated with some of the things that happen during multiplayer IE spawn deaths, campers, hackers, nuke boosters etc etc.

The multiplayer is the best out right now to be honest it just kind of wears on you once you do a 10th prestige in CODMW 1 and try to get another 10th in CODMW 2.

The game is great go out and get it just dont pay full retail price try a site that sells used games for cheaper IE ebay, amazon, half.com etc etc. Oh and be ready to get your butt handed to you because alot of pro clans play, i recommend using merc mode where you can't be in a set team.

People normally just complain because they play the game to dang much and get frustrated when they lose so they try to find ways of how a game is bad.

Also if a game is popular you are naturally going to have people flocking on it to be haters so they look "cool" for not liking something so many other people like. everyone has thier own opinion this is just mine of course.

I enjoy the game. The multiplayer has problems, what makes it bad is that it can somehow be addicting and extremely frustrating at the same time. Though it is great fun with a friend or three. The single player mode is quite epic at times even though it may quite short. And the spec ops is fun for some split screen or online co-op. It's a fun shooter, not the best, but just fun.

It's not a bad game. It has it's flaws, but what game doesn't. As far as the hackers go there is barely any on this game.

Its a fun game when there are not any campers, hackers, noob tubers, or anyone using anything extremely cheap, Which unfortunetely isnt that often :/

The people who play it are almost as obscene as people who play halo 3

The game is broken. Eg. One man army w/ noobtube, UMP45 ridiculously overpowered

No, that thread is for people who feel attacked, it is a big argument over there, it tells me nothing. I am looking for feedback, they are defending and ridiculing over there.

I think the only things inherently wrong with MW2 are a) the ridiculous melee range, only made worse by commando, and b) OMA noobtubes (unlimited ammo). But those things can be gamebreaking at times...

Oh, and don't forgot the godawful spawn system.

I found the campaign and Spec ops to be ok. Its the online multiplayer that's not so good. There are a few too many modders, campers, and people that kill you and are at the next spawn point before you even respawn. But if you are in a game with people that actually want to play a fair game it can be quite enjoyable.

I liked the single-player campaign even with the story plot holes. As to the multiplayer, there is a good amount of hackers and cheaters, but from what I've played, I haven't gotten too many of them.

Bad Company 2 is ten times better. MW2 is all visual and no guts.

It's not a bad game. Some have complained about campers - it's a shooter, people camp. My only issue is spawn deaths which rarely happens, but can be annoying.

It is a fun game for a while but the maps are terrible and the respawns are just as bad it just gets old after a while.

Its an awesome game, and one of the best, if not the best shooters to come out this gen in terms of multiplayer. There really aren't that many hackers/glitchers anymore, infact there are hardly any but people get really angry over things like that.
