Modern Warfare 2 No Dedicated Servers
Posted on Monday, October 19 @ 10:09:00 Eastern

Fans are starting to get pissed off Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and are petitioning after the news that the game won't feature dedicated servers or PC mod tools. BASHandSlash has info on the matter, which had been confirmed by Infinity Ward's Rob Bowling in a Q&A.

The MW2 backlash started this weekend. Here are the key points which had gamers in an uproar:

  • We're doing a lot on the backend to make the game accessible for everyone.
  • There is no delay for the PC version of MW2
  • There's prestige mode
  • Jason West at the MP event, said that he was dead on, on the matchmaking servers. We've been building a system on the backend called IW.NET.
  • You are completely reliant on IW.NET. There are no server lists. There are no dedicated servers.
  • You have private matches where you can customize the game
  • You cannot put MW2 on a dedicated server.
  • This is the first time we've ever done something like this and the team has huge plans for what IW.NET develops into.
  • Customizing your game...you have quite a few options in a private match
  • You're getting same game (as in Console), plus matchmaking and private match.
  • Server admin point-of view, NO DEDICATED SERVERS
