Dark-Danz:
Game play 10/10
Multiplayer is where most of the people will be playing and where the real fun begins. There are about 16 maps IIRC. They are about the average size of Overgrown from MW1 and only 1-2 maps are as small as Showdown. The maps get really big and at times frustrating since there is no where to hide. You will get shot from anywhere. They have greatly increased the amount of guns and sidearms in this game. I used the term sidearm because you no longer need the overkill perk where it is replaced. The sidearms ranges from pistols, small SMGs, shotguns, and grenade launchers. I think there’s like 4-5 in each category to choose from and each have their own set of weapon achievements to unlock different attachments. Guns range from Assault Rifles, Shotguns, SMGs, LMGs, Sniper Rifles and Riot Shield (no you can’t use a gun and shield simultaneously, you have to switch between them). Guns offered as sidearms aren’t the same as the regular guns, just smaller/weaker versions of it. Oh yea, you can use silencers on LMGs and Shotguns LOL. Now for perks - Online has a lot more perks than the split screen mode. You have 7 equipment which ranges frags to tactical insertion (you can choose where you spawn).3 Special Grenades - smoke, flash, stun. Perk 1 & 2 - 5 perks each, where Perk 3 has 6 perks for some reason. Mixture of classic and new perks with upgradable perks as well, yes you can upgrade perks as you level which becomes permanent if you stay in the prestige otherwise you gotta unlock them again. Death Streak is a new feature - 4 options where you can choose a perk where if you don’t kill anyone within a certain amount of deaths it gets activated. There aren’t as many perks as there were in MW1, but some of the stuff there people didn’t use and they have decided to take out. (IIRC they took out Juggernaut? Or I haven’t unlocked it yet.) But with that being said, there is a lot more customization involved even though the number of perks are a bit lower than the first. The Kill Streaks are another nice feature with a lot of options, as you level up you get points to spend on any kill streak you want. With the highest kill streak being at 25 kills, it is most likely you will unlock that much later. There’s about 20 or so different Kill streaks, I can’t remember on the top of my head. What I do remember was getting EMP bombed cause some guy got a 15 kill streak and disabled all our UAV, Scramblers(Jammer), and HUD. I was basically running into the edge of the map during the time, and it lasted a good 90 seconds if not more? Real good stuff to choose from. Ummm same modes to choose from, TD, S&D, HTD, HS&D, cage match etc. Oh since I have this for the PS3, we always came across the problem of a laggy host and we all get booted once the host leaves. You can forget all of that, they included a VERY IMPRESSIVE feature called host migration where if the host drops out due to a bad connection or just rage quitting
Hope you enjoyed my review! Hope to see you on PSN and on the battlefield. This game was definitely worth it. Questions or comments just PM me. We are also looking for people to join our clan, if interested PM me or TDeneka on SRK or PSN.

The CO-OP is not single player story mode. It is sort of Ghost Recon 2 ish, where you and a friend try to take out baddies together.
I really hope the servers for this game are ready for the abundance of people that will be on tonight… i had 3 days of no lag but i don’t think today is gonna be the same lol.
