Modern Warfare 2 Multiplayer Is Missing Major Past Features at Launch, Here's a List

Infinity Ward has released Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer without some key major features such as stat tracking, leaderboards and more.

It has xp token countdown at the start of the MP in use upto 6 times, challenges and bonus challenges,, stats K/d ratio and leaderboards

EvertonFC572d ago (Edited 572d ago )

Have you played it ? I'm looking at them right now.
1) 3 challenges per day and if you do all 3 you get 2 bonus challenges.
2)xp bonus is awarded 6 times when you play for the 1st time
3)K/d ratio is on the right hand side of the leaderboard when the map finishes or display it while currently playing a map with the duelsense touchpad.

I think ur getting scoreboard confused with leaderboard because there is def no leadberboard not stats viewer.

Same with the XP token countdown, that’s been confirmed by multiple people that it’s either removed or just plain bugged

EvertonFC572d ago (Edited 572d ago )

Thx for pointing that out.
Tbh I never gave to shits about the leaderboard total kill count stats etc.
I just play the game not fussed about any of that tbh but I guess it's disappointing for those who do like stats I guess.

EvertonFC572d ago (Edited 572d ago )

You have the xp token at the start but it's only usable 6 times.
Not bought a CoD in 5 years and have to say this is great or maybe it's because it feels fresh after 5 years away.

The challenges you see (daily) are not what is meant by challenges.

In MW2019 there’s a whole list of challenges you can choose from to unlock various looks & variations for the weapons. These range from common to rare, epic & legendary variations. They are completely missing from this one.

I’m surprised as the game was supposed to have a very smooth development for three years and previous COD had these.

Kaii572d ago

*Development for the original mw2 game began in 2008 & was officially announced in February 2009 to then be released on November 10, 2009.

Imagine how fun that final product was compared to today =)

Had a few matches last night. Very impressive but single player story is cheesy as hell tho showing America as the good guys as always, Fiction based story would be better

Graphics detail is massive step up from vanguard but one thing I noticed the pick perk system doesn't work as good as previous cods

MaximusTKG572d ago

Yeah you need to continue the story before you proclaim they show America as the good guys.

Missing features? The disc version is missing the game ffs

MW3 shouldn’t leave Modern Warfare 2’s overlooked playlist behind

Modern Warfare 3 is set to be one of the biggest COD games yet features-wise, but it shouldn't leave out one of the best MW2 game modes in the rear view mirror.

Modern Warfare 2 Adds Pay-to-Win Items With Thermal Scope and Merlin the Dog, Here's How They Work

Some alleged Modern Warfare 2 pay-to-win elements were recently added, see what they are here and how they work.

PunksOnN4G287d ago

The DOG is legit Broken if ur hiding in a room or grass he turns his head even if ur behind a closed door he turns his head and barks letting them know where u at thats PAY TO WIN!!!!!

LucasRuinedChildhood287d ago

I hope all the assholes who buy these get stuck in lobbies with each other. I skipped new COD games for a long time and a short time with MW2 convinced me to go back to on a hiatus.

With the skill-based matchmaking (engagement-based would be more accurate), I imagine this will make the game even more miserable for most players when the matchmaking has decided it's time for a tough lobby.

I played the OG MW2 recently on the Series X and it's disheartening how much more fun it is. I don't even care about the balance issues anymore. lol

PunksOnN4G287d ago

My friends dont play with me anymore i am former pro player and i even streamed on MLG for RX gaming the team i played for... My KD is always high 5-6kd my friends who i went to school with are not good wht so ever so with SBMM kicking in its always putting us in TOP TIER lobbys and they cant hang now they dont even tell me when they getting on LOL

ManMarmalade287d ago

I recently started playing OG MW2 again and I'm having a blast. Feels like I'm in high school again.

fr0sty287d ago (Edited 287d ago )

Welcome to COD under MS. It's all downhill from here, they're going to be looking to make that $68B back as fast as possible, at any expense to the player.

StarkR3ality287d ago

The deal hasn't even closed yet you pleb. CoD has been doing stuff like this since the loot boxes in WWII.

Nice try though pal.

TheColbertinator286d ago

Activision has never needed Microsoft or anybody for that matter to act like greedy bastards

PunksOnN4G287d ago

why did my 2nd comment about SBMM get downvited LOL?? Do we have people who Enjoy trash SBMM tbh make sense it caters to LOW KD players and u will never get better playing with the same trahs everyday LOL

andy85287d ago

Probably gonna see more of this BS once the deal is fully done..Gotta recoup that 70B.

Jin_Sakai287d ago (Edited 287d ago )

Look at Minecraft. The game hasn’t went anywhere since Microsoft bought them. No 4K, no 120fps, no graphics pack, and no Ray Tracing. Just some new biomes, mobs, and more skins as usual.

Same could be said about Rare. Who knows what will happen to Activision once they’re under Microsoft’s roof. We can all take a good guess though.

PunksOnN4G287d ago

TBH they did update it by accident then they pulled the update down on xsx and xss i remeber the XSX version having ray tracing but the S did not. Then after people seen that it was updated it was removed that same day

peppeaccardo287d ago

No way !!! Nobody wouild think they would monetize on items that weak asses will use to get advantage during multiplayer action !!! I would never think they would do that ... I mean is a free to play game after all ! /S
Wait once M$ will put their greasy hands all over Activizion and you will see what awaits the "lucky" ones who will play this slot machine of a game. Sooooo Lame !

jznrpg287d ago

They way it works is you give them money and more money and more money.

anast286d ago

It's a true phenomenon that people haven't figured this out yet.
