View Full Version : Modern Warfare 2 Delayed Two Weeks for PC?

6th Oct 2009, 12:40 AM
Citing unnamed sources, the site Electronic Theatre reports that the PC version of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will be delayed two weeks past its general Nov. 10 release date to Nov. 24.
Electronic Theatre says it has no official reasons for the delay, and speculates that "manufacturing constraints" may be to blame, perhaps to "counteract piracy issues."
Presently, Amazon, GameStop and GameSpot all have Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 listed with a Nov. 10 release date.
We've contacted a spokesman for the game to ask for comment. Should there be any clarification, it will be added here.

Counteract piracy,blah. I really hope this really is just a rumor, because we all know it will be cracked in less than a week no matter what they do....and once again the paying consumer pays :|
Sheesh, the game is already overpriced. Either way, guess I have to wait. :pissed:

Traitor....
Consoles really suck, but some guys are good at them. I cant see me playing on a console ever again.
But wait, this wasnt what the thread was about.
All the folks in the software gaming world have pushed PC users under the rug. Its no surprise that the PC side would have problems. If they ever for any reason decided to discontinue PC FPS's I would quit playing. Forever! Not another dime.

lol you gotta give it up to Activision to hype the game up after their trailer premiered on Sunday Night Football on NBC. It's a publicity stunt. In the form of a rumor of course. As in 'buy it for console because PC is going to be delayed'
Truth is coming soon and their forums are completely down.
Caddys chill out before I :hit:

Yes, it does seems like the developers will do just about anything to force a one platform world. And if they choose consoles, I, like Cobalt, am out...I'll probably make my PS3, sitting idle on shelf for a year, into a birdfeeder or something useful then. :D

lol talk sh*t about the consoles all you guys want, id own you all on either platform :D
but id have to agree that it seems to be the new trend to delay the PC version until the console counterparts sell. or they just forget about the PC version all together, Battlefield 1943 im looking at you!

Although I hate how us PC gamers are beening treated as 9th class or something that you sweep under the stove :nerd:, I can't abandon my 360, cause I have the Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, that game bring back old memories of some games that used to pissed me off cause it didn't have a save feature and you had to start the game all over again :roll: Now it has a save feature built in, although entering cheats is somewhat a task figuring out which buttion is A B C on the 360 controllers A B X Y. some digital download games like Ultimate Mortal Kombat, Uno, pinball ect... Oh... and Madden 10 http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/7664/droolsmiley.gif

On gamespot, the release date have been changed to be November 24 and the Hardened Edition as "Cancelled".

It's getting very confusing. FOURZEROTWO said "I know our PC players are anxious for official word. I am as well. I will let you know as soon as I do. I promise. When I left, it was fine. "
Sooooooooooooooooo.... guess it's still not conformed.

Although I cant say about your play on a PC too much. But the statement about owning on a console is not true. I think I could beat you if you were on a console and I was on the PC with my crappy ping.

Considering you have never seen AK416 play I find your response laughable based solely on your negative view of consoles. When they come up with a cross platform fps, I'll rise to the challenge. :2thumbs:
I still dont get why you guys are so snobbish when it comes to consoles. Why would anyone not want to be able to play all of the great games that release regardless of what platform? Bah... I love gaming period.
If you stuck to pc only you miss out on so many AAA titles. Your loss, my gain.
No disrespect Cobalt, I've seen alot of your posts and think your a well spoken dude. Ima gonna ship your unit a ps3 if I have too!

Console games have joke prices. That is why i never buy consoles anymore. My last console was a PS2 and i barely used it.
And to prove my point. It was recently big news over here that activision would be raising the RRP of MW2 from the normal ?39.99 (which is already a joke) to ?49.99.
I've preordered MW2 for ?23.99 on PC.

I have a 360.. and i'm horrible at the controls.
My 14yr old smokes me... Such is life..
I grew up on a PC, played many hours on PC's.. Just my preference, and i don't look as bad. :)
You could get into a debate about which is better, the 360, ps3, Wii, etc, as well. That's for another chain.
With limited budget, I have to choose what platform I play on to max out my entertainment. My son chose 360, i chose PC.. But he gets birthday/xmas/just because money, and I don't.. lol

No delay metioned but still probably in the midst of yet another nationwide postal strike by Royal Mail. I swear these guys strike more than they work these days.
Strike starts 1 day before the release of Win7 too. :cry:

I would say the delay rumor is bunked. I've been watching Infinity Ward on Steam for sometimes now. I get off work at 3am and some of their staff been in-game status in the late hours. They had been testing the Single player of the CODMW2 and lately the MP hours have shot up quickly to 309.1 hrs. I found their closed internal server IP. Anyway here is there group
Steam Community :: Group :: Infinity Ward (http://steamcommunity.com/groups/infinityward)
The only guy who I find odd who has not been on steam is Robert (fourzerotwo) he hasnt been online in 258 days.
