(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); MW2's "Arena" Gamemode was never released, was it because the coders never had time, or was it because they knew it was a complete copy of a Gamemode from Valve's "Team Fortress 2"?

Modern Warfare 2's Arena: 2 teams, 1 life, 1 flag. To win you either need to capture the flag or eliminate the opponents

Team Fortress 2's Arena: 2 teams, 1 life, 1 Control Point. To win you either need to capture the Control Point or eliminate the opponents.

Some might say it's a coincidence, but they copied everything right down to the name of the Gamemode. Pretty big coincidence?

well look at a whole bunch of other games. They copy gametypes from each other thats how most of our favorite gametypes are on so many different games.

Yes but most of the time they don't make it so obvious by using the same name as the other game

CoD copied Battlefield with domination then...as it is similar to Conquest mode.

Theres only so many things you can do before you start seeing similar gametypes

It would have been really nice if they had released it. They just keep using the same game modes.

Yeah, Shooter games take different game modes from eachother a lot of the time.
