First Impression:
When I now think the game as in the hands, I've already unpacked and put the DVD into the drive.
Then came the news that I, the program "Steam" need for the game. Steam is a program that matches (and selling), downloads (as demos, videos etc of games) and a kind Messenger offers (direct chats game and out-Game).
Steam was me by buying Counterstrike Anthology (no surreptitious ^ - ^) known.
So just CD1 tricked. The game then installed. After 2 CD purely and more
After about 13 GB Game is installed, it still requires a Key Code: This can be found on the back of the manual.
Having so then installed the game so including patches and some updates / fixes, I start the normal game. This is actually quite fast and I'm ingame even after less than 5 seconds. The game is lagging at Infinity Ward screen a bit because in the corner "Steam interaction game" appears at the top. That's actually not bad, because I'm not a "Producer Fanboy". After intro video to get to the main menu.
There must be a choice between "single player", "Special Unit" and "multiplayer".
I'm going all the time "describe" but I am sorry if the review is too long:
SINGLE PLAYER:
Classic story mode, the first three missions really convinced (especially the snow mission "Cliffhanger" I liked it because it contained sidequests like climbing a mountain or driving a snowmobile), but in the fourth mission, called "No Russian" I understood only station.
It poses as a US soldier as a terrorist from. The top terrorist Makarov Man has a fantastic as an airport.
The goal is to kill civilians! I thought that was already fierce but if you shot at a civilian there subject "No civilians shoot", was really too much. By something one can ruin a game and the Infinity Ward has managed for the part! This course, you can prevent the uncut version or uncut patches, but to said patch is hard to come off.
Otherwise, the single player is really super successful, as the game also scores per se with a top graphics, a fantastic sound and great gameplay.
SPECIAL UNIT:
This is a game mode by various passages from the campaign will be "reinserted" into their own missions.
However, new maps and missions are:
So you have on a house with different weapons, mostly with the Barrett off (a sniper rifle), enemies. But you can in between (if available) a Predator missile use (remote controlled air missile). In addition, expect not only soldiers, but also jeeps and trucks.
From the last part of the mission "Cliffhanger", where you control a snowmobile, a race is designed to time, etc.
The mode pleasantly surprised me, for such missions in between, in which you can change the difficulty level, are exactly what I like!
MULTIPLAYER:
The mode by the Call of Duty series was so famous is, and will probably always be.
Unfortunately it is since this part is no longer what it was before. Because dedicated servers (servers running certain mods and other merchandise available) and the server selection are history.
It comes in a menu by "Start" "Options" "Back to the main menu" and "Finish" to choose from.
One click Start, so one must after renewed confirmation of various modes operate. Some are locked at the beginning (just like the Class Editor). If you then have to select, for example, Team Deathmatch you wait a few seconds, as player or free spaces are searched. Once that's done, comes a 10-50 second delay after indenes can still vote if the map is changed or indenes you can leave the game. Then it's finally join the battle!
Ingame: When you're in the game, you can choose 5 standard classes and later up to 10 own.
The multiplayer is still better than ever. He is, I would even say, totally cool, is real fun and is at this point really EVERY recommended !!!
There are tons of weapons, extras and awards to unlock. There is now increased killstreak rewards. These range from a simple reconnaissance drone or a gun, to a helicopter / jet (where you can even be a pilot / on gun), or even a very dangerous atomic bomb that ended the game immediately with a bang!
On the other hand unlock so much that you can name it almost impossible.
As I say only himself to buy and enjoy ;-D
CONCLUSION:
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is a clear MUST!
The only drawbacks are in my opinion the airport mission and the dedicated server. Everyone always something bad about Steam but Steam is doing his best to improve all the games it hosts.
Otherwise the game is the firecracker (on every birthday, every Easter or under any Christmas = D)!
It is a MUST HAVE if you are fan of the Call of Duty series. Especially the multiplayer it did to me, to play this game at least 3 times a week.
Comparison: single player 14hours played; Multiplayer 51 hours to complete Played.
As I said this game can I highly recommend it and I hope you liked my first and somewhat long review. Read Thank you for stopping by and sorry for all the commas and possible typo!
Yours sincerely,
