Bashandslash.com had an interview today with community manager Fourzerotwo at InfinityWard. Important details for PC version was revealed:
MW2 will NOT be delayed, meaning release should be 10 November 2009.
MW2 will use VAC (Valve Anti-Cheat) and NOT Punkbuster anymore.
MW2 will NOT have dedicated servers!!! There will be no "HPH Norway - Ranked" to play on. IW will have their own network called IWNet, and joining games will be similar to how it works on XBOX360 and PS3 with host&play.
For modders, clans and competitive community this is really bad news. It seams that essential parts for clan-matches and competitive play will be impossible to do
Update 20 oct - IW wont listen
In a somewhat response to the PC community, Fourzerotwo tries to explain in more depth about IWNET: http://www.fourzerotwo.com/?p=745
While BF: Bad Company from Dice was a single-player driven campaign FPS for consoles, Bad Company 2 will have multiplayer AND it will come to the PC platform
From what I can see it's an AWESOME piece of work from our neighbors!
