Call of Duty 2 Causing Server Unrest

Posted by Zonk on Monday November 28, 2005 @11:37AM from the players-are-revolting dept.

Despite the excellent gameplay, Call of Duty 2 is causing a lot of internet unrest among the players who want to participate in the online multiplayer component. GamePolitics reports on a thread from the official site. From the site: "Server admins - those mysterious men (and women) behind the curtain who keep online gaming venues humming - are fed up with the PC version of Call of Duty 2. So fed up that they are planning a 24-hour shutdown of COD2 servers on Deember 16th if publisher Activision and developer Infinity Ward fail to address their complaints, which include the lack of an anti-cheat system."

Why does it need a patch? by Alabaster+Slim · 2005-11-29 01:13 · Score: 0, Redundant

I don't quite understand the terms this person is putting forward. I played through the single player without one problem or one crash. And I've played about an hour or two of Multiplayer without any problems either. The servers I played on even had Killcam enabled and I never saw anything that could be a cheat, just players that are better than me.

I can understand the desire to have anti-cheating software, but I haven't encountered any cheating as of yet anyways.
