NikolaT Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) Hey guys - I'm on a PC and after learning about the matchmaking service I started re-thinking actually buying it. Should I get COD 4 instead of it? Right now it's like 15 euros cheaper than MW2 which, from what I've read, is nothing but a shoddy console port. Or do people still play COD5: WaW?

WhenKittensATK Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Get MW2, its more fun than CoD 4. The matchmaking system works fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikolaT Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 So people play the PC version? How's your ping..? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkrow21 Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 If you're a competitive gamer, go with Call of Duty 4. If you're a gamer who plays a lot of mods, go with Call of Duty 4. If you're a gamer who plays at stock settings, go with MW2; the added content cant be beat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkrow21 Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Either game is gonna be a blast. Not really. If you're competitive, you'll be bored in MW2, and if you love those zombie mod gamemodes, you'll be bored too. But if you want plain vanilla gameplay with no alterations, that might be hard to find in the plethora of servers in CoD4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
molotovdaskwerl Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 competitive play has to be prearranged as it is difficult to set up in MW2, they need to work out a way to set up competitive play however i would reccomend MW2, and finding a friend with COD4 and playing story mode threw before you get MW2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhenKittensATK Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) So people play the PC version? How's your ping..? From my 2-3 days of testing the PC version of multiplayer. I can say the chances of you running into a laggy host are very slim. Gameplay is very smooth on small 6 vs 6 to 9 vs 9 servers. The matchmaking system is setup so it finds the lowest possible ping servers. It starts from scanning for 50 ping and increases it's increments by 10 ping until you reach 100 ping. Don't let the bitter bunch here confuse you and make you believe this is a bad game. The matchmaking system works just fine. Once you get into a multiplayer game it's very addicting like MW1 multiplayer. Edited November 26, 2009 by Krazyxazn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
