List of Modern Warfare 2 Playlists With Party Chat

Crazed - 48 days 1 hour ago

I think the reason Infinity Ward is doing this is to prevent cheating.

Because coordination makes them feel insecure.
Cheating my as$, if they really give a crap they'd fix their two year old glitches.

3 playlists you can, and 11 you can't... That is dumb as hell. And to 1.1, if it was for cheating, why can you party chat in Mercenary Team Deathmatch and not Team Deathmatch or Hardcore Team Deathmatch?

Because you can't join friends in Mercenary.
...
This is demented. Party chat exists as an insta mute against all the retards who normal people have no interest in hearing. This is just another heap of bullsh*t on a long list from IW/Activision.

And cheating, really? Who cares?

Make an MLG playlist and keep this restriction there.

@ rdgneoz3

because you join mercenary team deathmatch as a party so therefore the chances of you playing mercenary team deathmatch with friends is slim to none.

edit: PrimordialSoupBase, you beat me to it...

I can see why IW decided to do it but if the people who really use it to cheat can just use the good old telephone/cellphone or team speak on PC. Now when talking to my friends I have to listen to other peoples bs instead of just having a conversation with my friends. They just turned XBL into PSN.

"Now when talking to my friends I have to listen to other peoples bs instead of just having a conversation with my friends. They just turned XBL into PSN."

muting the other ppl on ur team takes less time to do than setting up a party chat lol

there is nothing bad about this at all lol sure ppl could still find other ways to cheat such as teamspeak, but it's a lot more effort than it being readily available for all 360 users. come to think of it s&d musta sucked for cod4 on the 360! surely with every1 in party chat every1 would be telling each other where ppl were when they were dead!

Why no party chat on team death match I understand on HC headquarters or S&D but now my friends and I can't talk Spanish without some idiot kids saying to use racist stuff (some ignorant people call us speak, mexican and other stuff like that or just start yelling random stuff) We are from Puerto Rico and we used it to talk among ourselves. Now one of the best services of Live is gonna go down the drain.

its pretty dumb that the only game modes that allow party chat are the game modes that dont allow you to play with a party. iw doesnt seem to be using thier heads

Firstly, it's called 'ghosting', it's been done in PC games for years in public servers.
Secondly, why didn't they just make it so you couldn't see the other team when you're dead ffs? o_O

No chat in team death match?

Having it in TDM is retarded. I'm sorry but who's bright idea was that? Maybe I have friends who play on different games? Multiplayer gets boring when you've only got some squeaky kid and an MLG wannabe to talk to. In fact I don't even want to get into what it's like being in a game with those types of people.

I'm not buying this anymore. Go to hell Infinity Ward.

I'm guessing that if the game detects you're in Party Chat when you enter one of the 11 playlists...

1. You'll be forced into Game Chat
2. You'll be forcibly disconnected from the Party
3. You'll be forbidden to enter that playlist until you leave the party.

You hit the nail on the head. People have stopped communcating with other players cuz either they are in cross game chat or having pvt chat so even in TDM it is like you're playing on your own.

What party chat did (at least to my group of friends) is stop the harasment. Party chat was a God-send. I could just play with my friends and not worry about being insulted and called all types of names. And forget about the people with accents (like me), being called all types of names and insults flying back and forth. Now even when I am with my brothers that is going to happen to all of us if we dare speak.
It looks like the IW have not played a single day on XBoxlive outside of their little network.
Dumb Dumb Dumb Dumb is all I can think of.

Teamwork you say .. I have been playing shooters for a long time, and outside of clan there is never teamwork .. only insults and crap topped with more crap.

This is something that will cause me to not enjoy the game as much.

I suppose it's like playing on your own, but thats what friends are for. When I play I like to talk to friends, not some jerk I just met in game. Granted not all people blow balls, but it only takes one to ruin it.

This is ridiculous, but since I haven't tried it for myself, I can't judge yet. I'm pretty pissed about not being able to chat with friends who aren't playing MW2 or in my game, but maybe it will promote teamwork after all.

However, with the typical nature of COD players, this probably won't be the case.

Wait what? We already have cross-game chat. You don't. 1 game doesn't let us play it in multiplayer to stop cheaters. Plus you aren't getting cross-game until end of 2010 or something, we'll all be playing something else =)

i got to agree with the buddy above me^^^ we do have cross game chat.... you dont

only one game in a way disables this .... PS3 games cant even have this feature since they cant cross game chat. and what makes you think this will not apply to the PS3... oh yeah cause no one even uses a dam mic in the ps3 since it does not come with one when you purchase it. seriously your fanboy blocks the way you think, at least a head of time
