"Fuel," a massive oil refinery with extremely long sightlines great for medium- to long-range firefights. The once vibrant rides now sit idle and neglected as perfect cover points in one of the most original multiplayer locations for Modern Warfare 2. "Carnival," a large abandoned theme park that offers lots of unique vantage points that work well for all game modes. I've got to imagine that ultimately the pirates will win though, after sniffing enough network packets to create a server emulator.I guess it depends on how much time someone is willing to put into it though.Adds five new maps with two maps from Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. Looking at the weird solution they've come up with ("Create Steam ID with a space in it" Huh?) I think it's probably safe to say that it's a hack that will be countered by IW.net expediently, but there will probably be a continual back-and-forth cat-n-mouse game played by developers/hackers for some weeks to come. Enjoy playing Modern Warfare 2 MP, for free! Make sure that your Steam Friends name contains a Space within it, if you don't do thisħ. Add iw4mp.exe (Modern Warfare 2 Multiplayer) to Steam as a 'non-Steam Game'Ħ. Create a new Steam account so that you don't risk having your regularĪccount banned, if you don't already have Steam you can get it from ĥ. At the same time, it's difficult to say how many sales were lost when it was announced that PC MW2 would not support dedicated servers. Keeping pirates out of the picture for even a few days can perhaps translate into tens of thousands of extra sales. If pirates can't play at launch then they are far more likely to just buy a legitimate copy of the game they want.
At the same time, the argument can be made that sales (and piracy) of games like MW2 are extremely front-loaded around a given release date. It sure must suck to see a game completely gutted of functional dedicated-server online modes for the sake of keeping pirates out of multiplayer games.for less than a week. I haven't played any online shooters since Halo 2, but I came across this out in the ether.
