    But we wouldn't be able to play on 'our' server. No admining, no 'Welcome to Cain's Lair' recruiting, no nothing. It just wouldn't be the same.

      Josh111: PC Question... What will the max amount of players per map be for PC multiplayer on IW.net

      GeneralClean: With the new IW.net, how many players can it support at one time with each server set-up, 8 vs 8, 12 vs 12, 16 vs 16, and how much bandwidth are we talking about per player basis, Upload and Download?

      Vince-IW: 9v9

      Mackey-IW: The max number of players on all platforms are 1v1 through 9v9. This is the number of players we focused on when we were balancing map size, perks, classes, challenges, etc.

      LOL 9Vs9 Are those ******** gone mad?

        No Dedicated Servers

        No mods

        No console

        No more big matches, max limit of players is 9v9

        No leaning - ? The game is not balanced for lean.? HAHAHAHAH

        No low ping, in-house testing has given devs average of 100ms ping, which is OK for average games. Devastating for competitive players. Also, this is in-house testing, controlled and under supervision. Imagine players from different countries playing together? can you? ?Seems like everybody I play with on 360 is some guy in England that got the game early, and the game was very playable even with only 2 of 4 bars.? ROFL!!

        No control over your own game - you cannot kick people (in ranked games) who do not follow the rules or use insulting/racial slurs. Oh, but you can mute them, so that would fix it lol.

        No HC modes - only TDM and S/D lol

        No proffessional/competitive play - ? I guess we'll have to talk to them and see what they would need. We would love to work something out.? - lol, moron IW

        No control over hackers - you'll have to pray VAC catches them within a few days or months. ? Our goal is to ban hackers from the game.?

        No objective arguments to anything that they are asked. - ? Multiplayer is incredible, you should not be worried!?

        No informed custumer dicision/Being plain arrogant jerks and ***s - How will we know we won't waste our money since there's no demo? ?When one of your friends buys it, you can ask him if it's good, and then make an educated decision.? omg!

        Have they tested the connection with overseas players? - ? Yes, seemed good.? ?



        No /record feature

        Is it a direct console port? - ?No, PC has custom stuff like mouse control, text chat in game, and graphics settings.?

          Axen: Please explain how a 9v9 match is a multiplayer experience? I'd have more fun serving lunch at a local nursing home.

          Vince-IW: Sounds like are a very compassionate and giving person. I hope the people at the nursing home appreciate you.

                  Guys: why do you still care?

                  Didn't almost all of us determine already we weren't buying this lovely little release? (Except those of us who are getting a snowmobile for the cost of the game...) Just let it go from your minds.

                  This game is DEAD to us.

                          This latest news seals it for me, I won't be buying MW2 no matter how well they pull off IWNet as I'm simply not interested in small 9v9 online matches, they will inevitably lead to much more sneaking and camping than the pure "blow shit up" style of the 40+ man servers I've always played COD4 on.

                          It's clear that the PC version of MW2 is a pure console port (did you see they removed leaning and PC console commands?), if they used XBox graphics on the PS3 version there would be a similar uproar from the PS3 community about IW being lazy and not delivering the full promise of the game. I don't feel bad about voicing my complaints and voting with my wallet, and I don't buy arguments that this sort of protest will lead to the end of PC gaming as only a fool would ignore the huge base of PCs out there, and if IW has gotten fat and lazy there's always someone waiting to eat their lunch (see Bad Company 2).

                          Sorry gang, I guess I won't be seeing you around for this one but hopefully we can reconnect soon in another game!

                            lol up until that 9v9 limit I was almost going to buy it. Too bad. Guess it's Free Warfare 2 for me then.

                                I'm surprised it's even 9v9 (could of sworn i posted about that ages ago). There's not many good home connection out there that can handle a 18 player game without any issues. I images most games will be around the 5v5 territory.

                                Considering i won't be buying this game this will be the last time i spend in this thread. It's a waste of time tbh.
