Yes and why not ask the sun to stop shining, the moon to stop rising and the tides to stop flowing. MW2 people are like SMG people. The more you point out the game's glaring faults, the more they go into denial. They are a stubnorn lot. Forget trying to use reason to convince them

I stopped playing 6 months ago

I agree with the title...

why stop something so good?

I love playing the game. My GOTY for 2009. I plan to keep playing for years more.

people who say...stop playing mw2 or mw2 is shit...is simply cause they sux at cod and got owned so many times they hate the game,i think mw2 is a decent game and perfect to play with friends and have a good time, idk why people hate it so much.

It's a shame that MW2 overshadows better (IMO) games like BF:BC2 and MAG. Both are miles deeper (objective based, tactical team play, support roles, vehicles and mounted weapons, large open maps) than MW2 arcadeness.

Never played it, played the fist one though and didn't like it.

millions of people will not stop playing MW2 . i stooped and moved on to Battlefeild 2 have not picked it up since.

BFBC2 > MW2

He's not saying people should stop playing the game but just complaining that the IWNET servers or what ever they are, are broke. He's complaining about general bugs and lag that plagues this game.

Personally, I think they need to "kill it with fire". This game was massively advertised and hyped, while the dev team was not ready. They didn't even have a beta test for the game and the hole "no server" thing.

This game could have been grate, but oh well, what are you going to do with massive publishers like activision breathing down there necks to finish because they want all the money in the world.

i stopped playing like 4 months when i realized that I was playing a half finished game.

it will still be the most played online game on XBL/PSN with or without you lol

I haven't played MW2 half as much as I played MW. Then again, BFBC2 and MAG have taken up my online time.
I haven't come across many people glitching etc (PS3 version) on MW2 but BFBC2 and MAG are more enjoyable to me.

Simple things amuse simple minds.

only posers keep playing mw2. it seems to be the "in" thing to do.

"I don’t want anyone to stop playing MWF2 Multiplayer."

Oh. How very misleading - 'cause I DO want people to stop playing this pathetic excuse for a shooter.

This game is ok in small doses but I will never play this the way I played MW1. MW1 was top of the hill, MW2 is side of the hill overlooking the sea of Crap it leaves behind.

Arcade Breed - NES raised right here. I've been gaming over 20 years, back when games didn't have to hold your hand. But now a days that's all people go for the simple and easy. But to each their own as long as there are some developers that create great games (Naughty Dog and kojima productions are my favorites this gen) I have no problem, but if something like MW2 becomes the standard of game productions that is when I will most likely stop.

you know its broken when you stab a sentry gun or a person once and they die.

Am glad i stopped playing it, biggest dump thats out there.

i've bought and sold this game atleast twice so far it has such an addictive aura; that fades after a week. Then you miss it when its gone AAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHH H the guys at respawn did a good job with the online

I was hoping this would be an article on why my 100 friends should stop playing MW 2 because it's an overrated piece of crap that people think they're good at because they use nubetoobs and using duel 1887 shotguns.

so i invite my friends in free-for-all to boost with me lol

seriously sometimes I wish articles like these weren't allowed to be vialdated on here

It shouldnt be approved due to the fact that in the very first sentance he says that he made the title misleading for quick hits to get attention

I don't know how this slipped by (everyone), but we're now in a phase where MAPS are being sold for 15 bucks a pair.
No idea how that happened, but way to go fellas, just you wait 'til the "free" fps madness hits the heads of the likes of Activision..
"ooh, a rifle on the ground! - 1$ To Pick up - dammit!"

Stop buying free cr*p. 99,9% of dlc's could've been patch-material.
Their pockets won't mind releasing that bonus content for free, they've been around for 3 decades + hacked into Blizz-stash :D

I knew that some gamers thought they were elite but damn you guys are hating hard right now. I love MW2 multiplayer. It's got it's fair share of problems(more than any other FPS ive played) but it's fun as hell and is that not the point of games. I played the hell out of KZ2 which takes alot of skill so i think I have a pretty good handle on what makes a fun game for me. I just can't understand why you guys just don't stop hating. MvsC2 was broken as hell but was still fun, especially when you were winning. Winning is fun, Losing isn't

Loved the first Modern Warfare. Very underwhelmed by the second. Haven't played it in months.

I don't have a PS3 right at the time, so I been playing my friends an I been playing MW2 alot and got the add ons today but as soon as we use them.

Well couldn't even load a game, it is worst them it has been before, hope they fix it. The game isn't bad but the people with no life and spend most of their time cheating are what kill the game.

I quit a game after shooting a guy for about 10mins while he was sniping and then it finally turns to me an shots me -_- it gets pretty bad sometimes.

who is that loser.

Anyone missing out on 3D Dot heroes and Mod nation, because of overdoing CODMW2 MP, needs their head checked. I Highly recommend both.

simple minds play simple games. :)

only played it a few times this year and that was because a friend came over and wanted to play it. I'm not leveled up very high (maybe 15 or slightly higher) but after i went through the single player and some spec ops i put it away and never really got back to it. Too many other good games for me to play on my ps3. Like UNCHARTED 2, that has multiplayer. both games had double xp weekends recently, but for the whole weekend i just played UC2 and didn't get to the MW2. my psn is nunley33

The game was good but after a few months I began playing God of War III. I liked the online alot but ever since those damn lags and server problems I thought to myself why would you keep playing and complain about the lags when you can play other good games. This game is a waste of time. Battlefield 2 should of gotten more attention.

"Stop playing Modern Warfare 2 Multiplayer!"

Okay, I didn't like the game either. In fact, I hate Activision to the core. But who are you to tell people what they can or can't play? You have ZERO authority over what game they choose to play. BTW, who approved this s**t?

.. That on the picture the game is telling the player to open up their NAT type? Maybe that's why she can't find games or decent hosts etc..

People still play this trash, the game was broken from day one!I loved COD4 but I have lost all respect for the COD franchise...Bought BFBC2 about a month after being abit sceptical from being in the beta and im so happy that i gave it a second chance, definatly my favorite shooter since CounterStrike...I love demolitioning buildings even tho I kill my team 99% of the time (Sorry guys lol) 5 kills away from the demolition man trophy.

Get battlefield and give the game the credit it deserves, you wont look back, MW2 sucks donkey balls

I hate mw2 to but at then end of the day who am i to to tell people what they should and not enjoy

already did.

Also, very misleading title.

ok...oh wait i already have. :D

mw2 is the most beloved online game now period, thats a fact...hate it or love it...so u guyz are wasting yr time bashing it here

Its so pathetic how you all hate on MW2, it is actually you who seem like the sheep to hate MW2 just because every real hardcore gaming geek does (you know the geeks who argue about gaming companies and developers on forums instead of playing games). The reason you hate it, its because you suck at it, i'm willing to bet that everyone here talking crap sucks d*ck at the game, k/d's under 2.0 and win ratios in decimal places. pathetic.

my MW2 stats rounded off-

56000 kills
18000 deaths
3.15 k/d
62 killstreak
3500 wins
650 loses
5.52 win ratio
250 win streak

maybe you should talk less on forums & spend time actually playing,

get good.

Another desperate fake video game journalist prostituting his creditability for web hits.

Actually I should thank IW for making MW2 because all the No0bs and 10 year olds play it instead of BFBC2 making BFBC2 such an enjoyable experience of not having to listen to racist 10 year olds from the suburbs cursing and incorrectly using inner city slang while they get pwned even though they are haxors.

So by all means Please keep playing Modern Campfare 2 and all you non gaming morons....stay away from BFBC2 servers.

I already did a when I got BFBC2.

I traded this in after getting it. They ruined the series and made it so pick up and play friendly it simply ruined it for me. 4 kills starts your streak rewards and 4 turns into 35, nuke game over. It wasnt fun after the 10th nuke. WAW was the best in the series in terms of my personal taste. Zombies ftw

What can I say. BFBC2 is taking it over with:
- Better gameplay
- Better graphics
- Just euhmm.. NOT BORING :D?

yooooo

The Xbox division has not listened to the customer since the 360 days. Ever since Kinect, Microsoft has been about selling us what they want and trying to tell us it’s what we want rather than actually selling us what we are asking for.

Microsoft does have a history of running things into the ground simply because they don't innovate or give products breathing space. I fully expect in the long term they will manage the same with Call of Duty and will kill it, just as they killed Halo and Forza and many other IP's over the years. This also extends to things like windows phones and such. They just were not competitive and did not listen to consumers.

Battlefield has beaten Call of Duty in players number not in sales maybe but in players

So far everything XBox touches die...

Same shit every year, give it a rest.

If they're going to do stuff like MW3 and BLOPS 7, at least make the campaign split-screen co-op. The way the maps are structured there's no reason not to, and it just adds value to a game that's short on it as it is.

Pretty sure BF6 will “pay the bills” just fine 🤪

COD is turning into a sports game wash, rinse, repeat. At least Ubisoft stopped doing the yearly releases with AC and it worked.

Call of Duty can die only by killing itself. This can happen to any franchise and happened to Medal of Honor which ironically was created by the original team that made Call of Duty.
