arcade gameplay? whaddyamean?
Brain dead opponents running at you in waves just to be mowed down while you stand there taking hits as if your adversaries are only armed with pea shooters. I find that gets tedious and boring

Initially, yes. Then the ISP's providing local-only bandwidth allowed their subscribers to access the authentication servers overseas on their local-only accounts, and wham ... everything worked perfectly.

Actually it's not so bad. BC1 is awesome on the PS3. Controller starts feeling natural once you get used to it and online play is freakin awesome.
If you've played tonnes of the old Forsaken or Decent like games on a controller and mastered it you will never fail with a FPS and controller
Plus I must admit it is so darn nice being able to sit back on a couch with wireless controller blowing up shyte on a decent size TV rather than leaning in on your PC lcd stuck in a room somewhere.

3. It's p2p hosting so if you get a lobby full of safa's, then you don't use international cap

Only valid if you're playing MW2 on a console. On the PC it's a totally different matter. It makes the game unplayable in SA because you have to log on using int bandwidth.
Hell, the way I understand it you can't even choose which server you want to play on. The game takes a server that has the best ping and same skillset as you.
For anyone who plays COD4 online like myself, MW2 will not be its succesor and that is where I think a lot of people are pissed off....MW is without doubt one of the best online MP games to play for fun and competively.
The guys @ IW clearly aren't trying to better that experience for the current fans of the MP side of MW. Expect they are delivering a very sub standard product that lacks the features most needed by MP players at a ridiculous price (for pc anyway).
A 6 hour SP for R500? You have to be nuts to pay that and I feel feathers for IW when everyone downloads it and shares it with their friends. If you are not going to give people a good reason to spend the already ridiculous price on your product, then be prepared to have it pirated to the ends of the earth and back.
Even if their MP system works, it is limited to 9 v 9, I mean are you ****ing kidding me?
Although it is not yet out, I can't help but feel this is going to be one epic load of crap.

Yes you log on to IW.NET, same like you login to xboxlive, but from there if you have a lobby full of safa's then it's a locally hosted game. I think thats how it works...If not well then I guess Robert Bowling was serious when he said they weren't concerned with the PC Gamers who said they were not gonna get this :erm:

My friend is still getting it for the PC since he got his pre order in when it was still R350. So I'll lend it from him to play the SP, but I'll be waiting till it comes out to see whether it'll be worth playing online.

That whole Reply is FAIL!
1. I spend alot more money then you to get/upgrade my PC, And and The dont have to pay any fees to console makers so WTF?
2. I've talked to online console players and its terrable LAG
3. Your asuming that the retarded system will only pick people from SA! LAG
who wants to play an FPS on a console? uhm, look at the success of COD 4, killzone 2 Gears of war etc etc. which are all on consoles. i think u got your answer. we CAN play online with our consoles lag free dude. just play with local ppl. PC concerns are not console concerns lol. Consoles ftw!
