Thread: Dedicated Servers

Right, so now the rumor is about Modern Warfare 2 having dedicated servers...

From Rob Bowling - Community Manager

No punkbuster - will use VAC
IW net + steam (separate)
Listening servers only
no info on mod tools

BASHandSlash.com - MW2: Dedicated servers in question? Update 1
BASH 123, Rob Bowling from Modern Warfare 2 is on to talk about IWNET. No more Dedi servers for PC. jockyitch01 on USTREAM. Shooter

I will do some more research on it later, need food now.

If Modern Warfare has no Dedicated server options, and will not allow FpsOverload to host a server, we, as a site will not follow the game, and no money will be spent on it or related things.

If that's the case, who the hell is going to buy the game?

And furthermore, what will happen to FpsOverload and ever other clan that has waited for forever for this game to release and just found out dedicated servers won't exist?

Don't have a clue, but if its not fixed after the first patch/ not done at all, I'll put the money into something else.. another franchise..

Well, fourzerotwo hasn't posted anything on Twitter, so hopefully it might change. They've already lost a shitload of pre-orders. Wouldn't that knock some sense into IW to get their asses moving on implementing dedicated servers?

WebLog... Times are approx.

1:41:22 - bowling just talking about no dedi's

1:45:18 - how many players with listening? internet connection dependent - or can we use dedi boxes - way to run remotely? No - everything through iwnet, connect via steam, matchmaking by iwnet

1:51:00 - Backlash from players, people who may for dedibox's wont be able to host their own servers.

hope it's just a rumor...
