Default [Kotaku] MW2 Enjoyment will outweigh complaints PC

Quote:
On an earnings call today, Activision president Mike Griffith said his company is "not overly concerned" about gamer complaints regarding the lack of support for dedicated servers in the PC version of Modern Warfare 2.

"We're, of course, watching this very carefully and paying attention to it," he said in response to a financial analyst asking about the impact of the loud complaints among PC gamers.

I can't get over how they think we (pc gamers) are just gonna be "OK" with this. They don't care, soon as it ships they get money and move on to MW3. Some will stay behind and fix patches + DLC.

They're not concerned because they don't care...

Uuuggghh... well I guess console sales are going to be so high that we PC gamers just don't matter anymore.

meh. There are probably way more casual gamers than srs bizns players. The casual gamers fall into the 'what is a dedicated server' or 'p2p as in limewire...whats that have to do with mw2?!?'

I may buy it, but only for the single player on PC, because I play an mmorpg lotro for online play. One gripe I always had about online for cod4 was the constant *****ing and bragging, and well sheer rudeness, maybe that's just on console who knows, but that part is sad, the online did look fun though(coming from watching my bro play it on ps3).

MP is going to be deserted and not to mention codmw2 looks the complete opposite in what it offers apart from profile save and 0 host ping but that's a not really that important. The ping 100ms?

best now to wait for some community cobbled together dedicated server fix.
now that i think about it what are the chances of somebody just lifting the code out of mw1 and jury rig it to work with mw2 working? they pretty much built the game off of the same tech that they made mw1 with didn't they?
