I'm surprised I'm the only one on here that doesn't really care for it. There are a couple things that are cool like 'one in the chamber', 2 player online games, and zombies, but overall I wasted $60. The graphics don't look very good, I've had this game for a week and played on about 4 different maps (and always play on the same ones over and over), get kicked out every couple of games because of host connection (where in mw2 it would just restart). At first I liked the idea of buying the weapons and attachments, but you have to wait for them to become available first so it kind of defeats the purpose. The game doesn't feel smooth like mw1/2, and am disappointed with it. There are a few other games out there that I want to play so I'm thinking about trading it in, I still got MW1/2 if I want to play a fps.

I'm with you. It's still fun, but I see no improvement over the previous version, which I totally expect from each game. Might as well have made new maps for MW2.

This isnt entirely true. I got kicked out of just as many games on MW2 that i am now. When the host dashboards the lobby ends in both games.

As much as some people had complaints about MW2, this isn't as good. I think they focused more on adding cool features than the game itself.

I couldn't even get on last night around 11. I read a lot of complaints about availability last night. I thought they were supposed to have dedicated servers anyway.

yeah, I don't see this as a big issue....everytime there is a major game release like a Call of Duty, Gears of War, etc...it seems like they have to do some tweaking to get things right. As for the game, I am finally going to play it tonight since my kid is out....he has been on there nonstop since the release.

I played the campaign last night on account my internet was out till this morning. Pretty cool mix of missions. Played an hour before leaving for work up to level 30 in about 6 hours. K/d took a hit in a match trying to get ballistic knife contract but still up around 1.3 or so.

Check your NAT settings. I've heard that with a few online games from people who had problems staying connected.

I got on after 20 minutes, but it seemed to only let me in TMD. The more I play the more I am disappointed.

played last night after our date (and secks) got my ass handed to me. promptly ending my 7 match win streak (thought it was longer but i must've lost a game in there that i don't recall). My KDR last night was 3:10, 4:12, and 2:9.

decided to shut 'er down after 3 abysmal matches.

KDR is back up to 1.33. All is well in the universe, I was consistently going 20-7 last night from midnight to 5am. Ran into a gentleman who had an all-time KDR of 1.89, unreal.

I used to like MW2 because once you got familiar with the maps you could easily go around and there was a back way into seemingly every place you could snipe from.

And if you happened to set off a claymore, you had a buddy running in behind you to take care of business
