Ask Honkus. He said he put MW2 back in after a few minutes


I played MW2 for the first time last night after playing mag since it was released. Got so annoyed I wanted to throw the game out the window. The deathstreaks just don't seem right after playing mag.

i heard good and bad things about this. So far what i've heard is:

-Team SVRE is stronger than all others, so most people play in this team as opposed to the other two.
-Also read that you spend alot of time respawining, because it's easy to get killed
-grenades have to much impact
-the 128 vs 128 is so spread that you rarely see people and is not as much fun as some of the other levels

Thoughts???

Don't know, I've only played with Raven

That's only if you are playing with a MW2 mindset(run and gun). The thing I like about this game is that you have to work as a squad to succeed like in a real war.

100% true

100% False, the maps are big but not that big. the 256 server games are EPIC.

cool, i read that big review on IGN and thats what he listed as the problems. Here is the one about team SVER:

quote:

This is where my first major complaint with the game begins, and it's a doozy. Now, perhaps it was a complete fluke. Perhaps several groups of skilled players had organized prior to the launch to join S.V.E.R. and tear it up. Or, and this is what I fear, there is an imbalance in the strength of the S.V.E.R gear, that, although extremely slight, gives them an edge over the other two PMCs, because since day one S.V.E.R has been completely dominating in every single game type (I later deleted my Valor character specifically to test out S.V.E.R. and, through my own personal observation, even at lower levels I noticed I was more successful at getting kills and winning matches).

That isn't my complaint. My complaint is that, due to their dominance, players are deleting their Raven and Valor characters and joining the winning team. As a result, most matches are S.V.E.R versus Raven, and S.V.E.R versus Valor. Rarely is it ever Raven versus Valor. This means that S.V.E.R – who were already winning most of their matches – was now also playing many more matches than either of the other PMCs, and as a result, their victories were compounding. Naturally, S.V.E.R is almost always the highest scoring PMC, giving them the passive rewards and making it even easier for them to win. In essence, S.V.E.R is slowly snowballing into an unbeatable juggernaut, and the other two PMCs can do little to curb the growing imbalance.

$40 bucks well spent. I think the game is great. It's no MW2 but it's a great game in it's own respect.
