New Modern Warfare 2 footage captures the life of a flag runner

Come November 10th, we might opt to play a different role during this mad multiplayer dash through (what appears to be) the set of Michael Bay's latest piece of explodima vérité. Then again, if you have someone classy protecting you, it might be worth the thrill. Provided you don't shoot them in the back (0:44). Oops!

CTF Mode, supply drops, predator missles, host migration and throwing knives.
Holy Jeebus, This game is gonna be the end of me...
Obie @ Sep 1st 2009 4:05PM
I noticed the game has a little pop-op badge whenever you kill anyone, telling their Tag, rank, and some other stuff...kinda cool...but I wonder if you can customize your own badge.

OMBWTFBBQ!!!

Dude, all i know is the blood splatter on the screen was sexy.
Damn though... ODST, ACII, MW:2.. $200 worth of games after taxes. Don't think i'll be able to afford any of them too. Either two things will happen this fall: 1.) You guys will be having fun without me. 2.) I won't have any ramen noodles to eat at college for the whole semester.
Oh fuck it! Who needs food anyways when you can blowing hours at a time playing a game that won't have any real life value at the end of the day!... oh wait..
MarkHawk @ Sep 1st 2009 4:17PM
Did the name pop up every time or just at the end in the free for all match?
DeepFriedSushi @ Sep 1st 2009 4:33PM
shows who you killed with their gamer pic too now, just a nice little touch.
Special Agent Steve @ Sep 1st 2009 4:40PM
I heard you also get a unicorn.
Rumors, but I wouldn't be surprised.
mgsrocks1 @ Sep 1st 2009 4:49PM
Hey dude I wanna ask you something. How do you tell where the enemies are or where they gonna pop up from? I've played COD4 once but it was frustrating because I kept on getting shot but had a hard time spotting people. So this whole I'm thinking, "WTF how the hell did the guy playing in the video got so many kills that fast?" Any tips will be appreciated. :)
Obie @ Sep 1st 2009 4:54PM
@mgsrocks: The top left corner has the radar screen, keep that in your peripheral as you move through the level, keep your gun sighted towards where they are most likely to appear. Shoot, reload, check your corners.
Man, and people wonder why I want this game more than ODST. ;)
JXCgunrunna @ Sep 1st 2009 4:59PM
You can not just jump and shoot? what the hell?
The other thing is to move slowly until you get used to the maps. take your time going around corners and do not rush into open areas.

Wow I'm glad this territory got access to a new optic fiber internet service,high speed connection here I go!
Okay probably the next month hopefully on time for MW2.
Cheesus(Crust) @ Sep 1st 2009 5:15PM
I know! This game looks amazing!
The Baron @ Sep 1st 2009 7:08PM
Buy your multiplayer games while they're hot and pick up the singleplayer games on PC after a year or two for a few bucks.
Brodo @ Sep 1st 2009 9:24PM
Man that guy was a beast!! Sooo excited for this game :)
Although scribblenauts is almost as exciting
XGM @ Sep 2nd 2009 5:33AM
Seems to be a good collection of weapons there too, I dunno if ill be able to stop this being a first day purchase...
Faceman @ Sep 1st 2009 3:48PM
Throwing Knives!!!?? Goldeneye status!!
Cr4sh Dummy @ Sep 1st 2009 3:53PM
I know; you can now dual wield pistols too!
Big_Lozbowski @ Sep 1st 2009 4:00PM
lets hope they skip the moonraker laser!! :)
Big_Lozbowski @ Sep 1st 2009 4:01PM
Lets hope they skip the Moonraker laser:)
Big_Lozbowski @ Sep 1st 2009 4:01PM
Oops sorry
Obie @ Sep 1st 2009 4:04PM
@Big Loz: 3 redundant post in a row! You unlocked: Unfortunate downvote perk!
ximena79 @ Sep 1st 2009 5:05PM
@big lolz
and here i thought u were supposed to be funny.
Big_Lozbowski @ Sep 1st 2009 5:47PM
@ Obie, haha! I deserved that! can you tell I was in a rush to leave work?
Infidel @ Sep 1st 2009 3:49PM
wow, this game really is dialing it up to 11. even though i loved world at war(alot), it really shows that it was nothing more than an expansion, this is a true sequel. cant wait....
Special Agent Steve @ Sep 1st 2009 5:55PM
Honestly, if THIS doesn't garner at least a dozen GOTY awards, I'm going to be pretty pissed. COD4 had pretty much all 10's, and it won about 3 or 4 GOTY awards. Give IW some credit, ;)
HidStar -PSN- @ Sep 1st 2009 3:50PM
Epic!
JXCgunrunna @ Sep 1st 2009 4:12PM
No, they make Gears and Unreal. THIS. IS. INFINITY WARD MOTHER FUCKER!!11!!!!
O_o
lildomincan288 @ Sep 1st 2009 3:50PM
omg this is sickkkk
tmacairjordan87 @ Sep 1st 2009 3:50PM
This will be one of the extremely few games I actually play online, but probably only with friends or people on here. Can't stand the random match by myself with the types of people who inhabit xbox live.
JXCgunrunna @ Sep 1st 2009 3:53PM
I would love to play against you tmac. I would finally put all those hours that I can not get back of reading ur shit trolling posts to use in the form of motivation to kill you as much as possible.
Seriously tho, my Gamertag is JXCGunrunna if you ever want to play
tmacairjordan87 @ Sep 1st 2009 3:56PM
be nice to me, I'm nicer on the phone/Live headset than I am here. :(
It would be a hollow victory though, as I'm not really that good. In my best days on 4 I think my average was along the lines of 18 kills 11 deaths a match, and I haven't played an online game since January or so.
Obie @ Sep 1st 2009 3:57PM
While I don't mind playing against others, I prefer my own team comprise of people I know.
JXCgunrunna @ Sep 1st 2009 4:09PM
I was serious about you adding me on live. Its always nice playing with someone i have talked to rather than other people who yell at me for doing objectives.
BJ is Gooder @ Sep 1st 2009 4:34PM
Oh geez, get a room already...
Cheesus(Crust) @ Sep 1st 2009 4:44PM
I thought you had a PS3 tmac?
tmacairjordan87 @ Sep 1st 2009 4:46PM
I do, but I don't have a headset for ps3 and all of my multiplatform gaming is done on the 360.
JUNG GUNS @ Sep 1st 2009 4:52PM
Raise your hand if you hate tmac.
tmacairjordan87 @ Sep 1st 2009 5:10PM
*raises hand*...wait what?
crimsondc5 @ Sep 1st 2009 3:50PM
im saying goodbye to my social life when this game comes out...
Danthok @ Sep 1st 2009 4:13PM
My marriage will most likely end in divorce ...... because of this game.
BananaBoat @ Sep 1st 2009 4:31PM
"It's not you honey it's....it's...this game....I'm afraid that I've had an affair with it"
JXCgunrunna @ Sep 1st 2009 4:34PM
That is y I plan to marry the first woman who i can find that is good at video games
damnreds @ Sep 1st 2009 4:56PM
im taking a week and a half vacation from work for the release.
David [Steam: ZayCube] @ Sep 1st 2009 5:02PM
You mean your marriage with World at War? ;)
TORO @ Sep 1st 2009 5:20PM
Lucky me, my wife enjoys playing video games and is actually pretty good at it too. Can't complain :) I play on my 50" Panny, and she plays on our 32" Samsung
kentuckyfried @ Sep 1st 2009 10:20PM
My gf hates COD4 passionately.
I think it's about time to find another gf. =D
xxhonkeyxx @ Sep 2nd 2009 12:59AM
I'm going to fail every one of my exams this semester because of this game.... holy shit
clanboru15 @ Sep 2nd 2009 10:01AM
NOOOOOO!!!!
This comes out just before my quarter exams.... and then comes Christmas break! I won't be moving much... I still play CoD4 and CoD5 zombies regularly.
Maybe when OSU switches to semesters the Christmas releases will be more forgiving.
Maulok @ Sep 1st 2009 3:50PM
I'm amazed at how much better that player is than me!
I am terrible at CoD online, but it's so fun that I don't care that I'm a team anchor.
Cr4sh Dummy @ Sep 1st 2009 3:55PM
I know, me too.
Although, people more cynically inclined will say that the videp was staged and he had "god mode" turned on.
