As I remember it, when Treyarch first released W@W, the first month or two was filled with under map glitching. You could fire your flame thrower from under the map and look like a volcano going off.
Downfall,Seelow,Roundhouse, Outskirts and Courtyard all had wall breach or under map issues as well as elevators, skywalking, and numerous other glitches that tooks months to repair.
There were regular complaints about the tanks being overpowered as well as mp40 being overused. The larger maps had constant complaints for being camper or sniper friendly.
There were regular rants about how much better IW was on their Modern Warfare edtion and MANY players went back to it after several months of playing W@W.
The entire HYPE on MW2, before its release , was how much better the designers were at IW. Modern warfare was a much better game than W@W and this was going to be THE BEST COD GAME yet, even the BEST FPS game ever made.
With the record sales, still overwhelming amount of online gameplay, and amount of online RANTING and RAVING, I think it is still the number one FPS game ever.
I hope that Treyarch can out do IW on their Black Ops release.
There are several issues with MW2 that have changed the way many people play, especially the extended killstreaks.
But as of now, with Modern Warfare and MW2 under their belts, IW still wins the game design award.
Kk since you started with the hacks of waw lemme start with Mw2's hacks.
- See through walls
- Red squares around enemies
- Extended radar
- Inf RPG ammo with dangor close and sleight of hand pro
- Inf care pack/ ed sentry guns
- Super speed
- Chopper gunner bullets
- Play the game as ac130s
- Super jump mode
- Perm thermal seight
- Inf ac130 ammo
- Camo on secondary guns
- Able to unlock hidden content ( very pathetic on Iw's part )
- Elevators GALORE
- Wall breaches
- Out of the map on almost every map now
- Shot gun jumps
- 10th Prestige hack ( BIGGEST FAIL EVER no sence of accomplishment)
- Unlock emblems and tittles hack
Im 100% sure that i listed about 1/10th of the possibilities with j-tag.
My first point being don't even compare the glitches and hacks that the games had you'll loose every time.
As for overpowered tanks and mp40 that palls in comparison to chopper gunners ( sure 11 killstreak still overpowered), commando and oma noob tubes.
As for your record sales that just = people wanting something new to play + hype.
If i knew the game was gonna be like this i still woulda bought it don't get me wrong im just saying that its not as fun as waw was.
To the people who played cod4 instead of cod5, Congrats but half of them didn't give WAW a decent shot because its a lot funner than cod4 even.
I laugh at people who say cod4 was balenced, every game is unbalenced all imma say is m16, ak47.
