So everybody's written a blog stating their opinion of MW2. Except me. So here it is

IW not implementing dedicated server support, and in fact putting significant effort and development time into creating IWnet (a dumbed down experience), irritates the fuck out of me. I've been playing PC games for a number of years, and to take this route is just baffling to me. I can guess at some of the reasons behind it, but it still feels like I got kicked in the balls by my best friend.

But that's not what this is about. No. This is about IW looking at me in the face, and lying. Without flinching. What's that? You say that IWnet is going to be better for me than dedicated servers were? Really?!

"IWnet will match you up with the best ping server that matches your criteria"

THAT DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT NO HOME BASED ISP CAN SUPPORT THE SAME BANDWIDTH AS MOST DATACENTERS! You fucking bastards. Don't look me in the eye, and tell me your shit tastes like chocolate. I'm not that stupid (though some would tell me otherwise).

That's really all I have to say. I'm not even that mad anymore about the lack of dedicated servers. I'm significantly more irritated that they won't stop lying to me. Over. And over. And over again.

This is not a good thing for PC gamers. Period.

Hell yeah I fapped my own post. What of it?
Fapping over yourself? Not many people would admit to that. :)
My least favorite thing about talking about this is the PC haters who start arguing against some twisted "PC elitist" that doesn't exist. If I say that dedicated severs are better it's not because I hate consoles it's because I want more control over my games.

Like you said dedicated serves give me more power over how I enjoy my gaming and I don't understand why it angers some people that I want that control.
@Golden
Exactly. PC Haters use straw men arguments (LOL FUK U PC ELITISTS) as opposed to tackling the real issue: the fact that dedicated servers are a more complete experience, and provide more control for consumers. Also, mods.

Facts scare people. After spending $300 on a brand new console, they're ashamed that a PC version might have more options, and want a gaming PC, but they have no money. So what better response than to call all PC gamers elitists!?
@ Golden and Mag

But they do exist. I realise its only a small percentage of pc gamers; as i've found the pc gaming community to be a little more mature then the console community. But you cannot deny that PC eltists do exist, and they troll around spewing their crap about how console gamers are retards and pc gamers are some superior race.
@Cartman

I agree and they're just as much as a problem. If there's anything the internet has taught me it's that the dumbest part of the group is ALWAYS the most vocal.
@Cartman
Yea true. I still prefer them over PS3/360 only elitists, though.
