I know I am. And believe me, I was as hyped up as anyone a few months ago, but as time goes on and more info is released about MW2, the less and less I'm getting excited for this game. MW2 is becoming something totally different than what COD4 was and that's disappointing. These are some of the things that are bugging me:
Throwing knives - Really not necessary and too gimicky imo.
4 kill streak (supply drop) - Imo, all this supports is spraying and praying unlike COD4, where bullet conservation was necessary. Not to mention, you can possibly get an advanced kill streak reward out of it. What happened to the days where you EARNED your killstreak rewards?
Automated Sentry Guns - IW are you SERIOUS? Really! Lame- Enough said!
Death Streaks - Ok, you're scrubbish. Now IW is rewarding you for your lack of skill. I don't have an issue with the Copycat perk, because I see it as useless. Although rewarding a low ranked player with possibly a high ranked setup is not fair. The Painkiller perk sucks though, 10 extra seconds of health? Come on IW, remember it's supposed to be about rewarding the good players, not the bad ones. From the Games Radar link:
"After three consecutive deaths with no kills, players are awarded a little bonus of their choice (assuming they've unlocked all of them). The default bonus is Copycat, which allows a player to steal his killer's class for one round, and get a taste of the weapons and perks of a more advanced player. The next one unlocked, and the last one we saw, is Painkiller, which affords players 10 seconds of extra health after they respawn - great for when you're being spawn camped."
Blood Splattter - Huge droplets of blood on your screen that makes it so you can't see sh**, again enough said!
Silenced Shotguns - A huge disappointment. Silenced snipers I don't mind, but silenced shotties is something that shouldn't be there.
Dual Wielding - I don't know how this can belong in a COD game. So far you'll be able to dual-wield pistols and smgs, but I wouldn't be surprised if dual-wielding lmgs were in the game too. If IW is going to go silly, they might as well go all the way right? Another gimmick imo.
Spawn Sticks - If it's 1 thing KZ2 taught us, it's that spawn grenades shouldn't be in mp. Big mistake IW, big mistake.
Now, I might be alone here or I might not be but there are a ton of games coming to the PS3 this holiday and I'm seriously considering leaving this one behind, or at least just rent it instead and cancel my preorder. Your thoughts?

probably now you have a good reason why they named it "Modern Warefare 2"
