So soemthing which has bothered me recently, is the differences in the time played ont he stats screens on the single-player and multi-player progrmas respectively. Now, if it were a few minutes out, thats acceptable. BUT, when i looked today its over a day out. thats 24 hours appeared from nothing.
This screenshot i made better explains it.
Note the difference in time played. Over 1 day more on the single-player screen, than that of the multi-player screen.
Does this suggest that the single-player stats has counter how long i have been running the multi-player game (lobby+playing)?
In which case, 1/3 of the total time i have spent on this game (1 day) has been looking at a failed IWnet lobby.
Thanks allot IW.
On a side note, my bad for not updating in a little while – Getting fed up with MW2 again. Also i bought Bioshock 2 pre-order off steam and i need to complete Bioshock 1 before i can play the second one, if not my OCD will eat me, so thats keeping me busy
So fourzerotwo, aka Robert Bowling, has personally banned the Xbox 360 console and Xbox live account of a modder (named anthonyaisrael8) who posted a video on his YoTube account that showed that Map Packs were already on the retail disc. The video was soon removed from YouTube by Activision and the following message was sent to him:
Here is anthonyaisrael8’s response to the banning:
The original video was removed too quick for us to grab it, but Justless over on the MW247 forums managed to grabs some screenshots of them.

P.s, I’m a dedicated PC player with a flashed and jTag’d 360 in my room, this could get interesting.
Only a few days since the last update (1.0.175), a recent patch update has been released through Steam (which will auto-update when you restart Steam) is said to fix a number of pressing issues with the PC version of the game. Here is a complete list of what patch 1.0.177 is supposed to fix:
Care Package, Emergency Airdrop, and Sentry Gun marker grenades sprint speed normalized
Model 1887: Bling using Akimbo and FMJ combination now has same range and damage as non-Bling Model 1887s
Improved player collision removing cases of getting into geometry and ‘elevators’
Mouse latency tweaks for more mouse movement consistency
Fixes to prevent various texture and XP hacks
Its a start, i for one am please that the 1887’s have been nerfed again. Everytime balanced is mentioned in this game i laugh to myself, thinking back to the bestBuy chat, but the 1887’s were one of the many things that did outright piss me off.
No word has been said on mod-tools as of yet, and i’m not sure the latest attempts of stopping texture hacks has had much affect within the hacking community, its just cat and mouse.
A Romanian websie (.ro) has detailed the process of how anyone can get around steams protection, and run MW2 piggybacked off another Steam game (much like the Zero gear hack). This one sees Trackmania used instead of Zero Gear(which is actually pretty fun heh).
I’ll post the source up here, in fact, because any real game developer (ahaha) would have this fixed so quick that it wouldn’t matter how publicised it is.
Updates to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Fix for latest texture hacks
Fix to prevent players from getting inside geo
Fix to prevent players with illegally pirated copies of Modern Warfare 2 from matchmaking with legitimate Modern Warfare 2 players
Connection improvements for NAT-PMP routers
Fix for “elevator” glitch that allows players to get out of playable area
Eh, its a start. Atleast we got patchnotes with this one ahah.
I’m still playing MW2, on and off.
When i finally get into a game i find it full of 1887’s, noobtubes and people who play every gametype as if it were TDM. Not to mention the lag spikes, poor connection, whiney kids calling people out for nothing, rank hacks, texture hacks, aimbots and wallhacks.
Then we get no release notes for patchs, next to no action on the official forums from 402 or the dev team.
For fuck sake IW, PLEASE do something about it.
Ahh well, atleast i have L4D2 now, £20 in GAME if any brits are interested.
Sorry for the lack of updates lately, i have been pretty busy. I am looking for contributers to the site, you must be fairly in-tune with MW2, specifically the PC side. Please leave a comment with contact details Thanks
Welcome to ModernWarfare2-pc.com. This site is basically turned into a rant about MW2 from a gamer who plays it on the PC version. I do try and post decent articles from time to time, so its not all me moaning :) - Leetmu
