Single Play and Spec-ops

SylintShOt wrote @fourzerotwo: so do you need to beat each level of spec ops on veteran before you get the next one unlocked? or how does that work?

fourzerotwo wrote @SylintShOt: No. You'll unlock them gradually. So you don't need EVERY star in Alpha to unlock Bravo, then more to unlock Charlie, and so on

fourzerotwo wrote Awesome #MW2 feature I've fallen in love with while on tour. Ability to play on a different difficulty than your coop partner in SpecOps. <3

KAIZERSOSA81 wrote @fourzerotwo: Wow can you say people cheating they're way through Spec Ops like this? Yes... one person on Veteran, other on Rookie. LAME...

fourzerotwo wrote @KAIZERSOSA81: Assumptions Assumptions. 1st - no Rookie in SpecOps. Only Regular & above. 2nd - they'll only get awarded for their difficulty

Scorp96 wrote @fourzerotwo: Will IW release any new videos on new campaign missions?

fourzerotwo wrote @Scorp96: Probably not. No more story spoilers from here on out, but current plan is to do a few more official videos before launch.

Deflectant wrote @fourzerotwo: Will we be expecting an extra Spec Ops map with the purchase of the First Map Pack? Thanks for reading.

fourzerotwo wrote @Deflectant: haha We're just now finishing the game! Once #MW2 is out & we can get feedback from the community, then we'll focus on DLC

CONVOY52 wrote @fourzerotwo: if you and your teammate get downed can u crawl to each other and revive eachother before you bleed out? Or is the mission over

fourzerotwo wrote @CONVOY52: No. If both players are down then that means mission failure. RE: Can you revive someone if you're down in #MW2 Spec Ops?

qwerty_LDT wrote @fourzerotwo: If i get the Italian vers. of #MW2 will i be able to listen to the English voice-acting? Couldn't in #MW1

fourzerotwo wrote @qwerty_LDT: No. Each region has a localized version of #MW2 for their region & in their language. Which includes only their language.

Miles_08 wrote @fourzerotwo: are there any new maps exclusive to specops or are they all based on single player maps ?

fourzerotwo wrote @Miles_08: Yeah. There are locations in Spec Ops that you can only play in Spec Ops. Each mode is unique in #MW2 but also shares some element

vinacent wrote @fourzerotwo: will there be set classes for spec ops or will we be able to customize a weapon loadout??

fourzerotwo wrote @vinacent: You'll spawn with a set weapon loadout, but can swap with hidden weapon cache around some of the levels.

CalebSW wrote @fourzerotwo: I think what @codplayer2 was trying to ask was what happens if your partner doesn't get revived in specops

fourzerotwo wrote @CalebSW: Your partner will bleed out eventually. If you both go down, Mission fail. It is possible to beat it with a downed partner though.

codplayer2 wrote @fourzerotwo: if your buddy gets killed in spec-ops, then do you try to finish the level by yourself or you also have to start over again?

fourzerotwo wrote @codplayer2: If your co-op partner goes down, you need to revive him. He'll be in last stand, but can crawl to safety. If both die, game over

walter_strider wrote @fourzerotwo the game does look awesome. also will the juggernaut always be the last enemy to kill or will there be others?

fourzerotwo wrote @walter_strider: No. They'll be randomly around the mission just like normal enemies. They're appearance is much less than typical enemies.

walter_strider wrote @fourzerotwo: what difficulty setting are the in spec ops and what differences do they make?

fourzerotwo wrote @walter_strider: Regular Hardened & Veteran, no recruit. Difficulty changes enemy aim, bullet damage, and increases the goal required to win

Josea890 wrote @fourzerotwo: Does anything u do in spec ops has anything to do with multiplayer? Like weapon challenges cand and so on. or is it separate?

fourzerotwo wrote @Josea890: No. Spec Ops progression is completely separate from MP challenges & rank. You can get Achievements / trophies in Spec ops though

Rylee1010 wrote @fourzerotwo: #mw2 episode of GTTV was pretty sweet, just one question though: are dogs included in multiplayer?

fourzerotwo wrote @Rylee1010: No. We didn't include dogs in #MW2 Multiplayer. They're in Spec Ops though.

ChucklesBrown wrote @fourzerotwo: Are the two characters in Spec Ops anonymous spec ops members of TF141? Some say they're SEALs but I heard Ghost's voice.

fourzerotwo wrote @ChucklesBrown: The faction you play depends on mission setting, but they will be anonymous. Ghost is providing mission details over comms.

koenigsegg9 wrote @fourzerotwo: Will spec ops be available from the start? #MW2

fourzerotwo wrote @koenigsegg9: When you 1st get #MW2 only the Alpha Spec Ops missions will be unlocked. You'll unlock more as you beat some & get stars

XEvilRobX wrote @fourzerotwo: Is there a chance of Ghost being playable for 1st player in Spec Ops, maybe in some DLC? Or unlockable for Spec Ops?

fourzerotwo wrote @XEvilRobX: Not likely. Spec Ops is a dedicated mode completely unrelated to the story of #MW2. Pick up and Play fun. No "characters"

iDriveHeShoots wrote @fourzerotwo: hey Rob, i heard something about a alien terrorist mode? similer to nazi zombies is that true?

fourzerotwo wrote @iDriveHeShoots: haha - no. There is no Alien Terrorist mode. Can't believe this rumor has any weight. Seriously... alien.... terrorist?!

3DuArD0242 wrote @fourzerotwo: Is Special Ops mode as long as Single Player? Or shorter?

fourzerotwo wrote @3DuArD0242: Special Ops is just as long if not longer than Single Player (depends if you're going for all 69 Stars). It's meaty!

3DuArD0242 wrote @fourzerotwo: Are you allowed to say what these 69 stars are? If not its ok.

fourzerotwo wrote @3DuArD0242: There are 3 stars per mission. You get 1 star for beating on Regular, 2 stars for Hardened, & 3 stars for beating on Veteran

MichaelCadenas wrote @fourzerotwo: will there be a horde mode type if thing ??

fourzerotwo wrote @MichaelCadenas: Special Ops includes a variety of gametypes and mission objectives. One of many being a Wave Defense type.

Multiplayer Maps and Enviorments

seve515 wrote @fourzerotwo: I've noticed at the end of a game there is a slow-mo killcam, could you tell us if the kill cam relates to us or a certain kill

fourzerotwo wrote @seve515: That's the "Game Winning Kill". It shows the last kill in slow motion along with the Callsign of who got it to every1 ingame. #MW2

Evil_Paladin wrote @fourzerotwo: Can you now give us a final number of maps that will be in Multiplayer?

fourzerotwo wrote @Evil_Paladin: nah. I can never confirm exact numbers, exact playlists (for the most part) or things like that. Want to keep surprises high.

R0DSTER wrote @fourzerotwo: mw2 needs more eviroment interaction that mw1 lacked, can this be expected? (like, shooting steam pipes to make a smoke screen)

fourzerotwo wrote @R0DSTER: It does. In #MW2 - there is a lot of environmental reaction to a fire fight. You can see quite a bit of that in the MP vids we did.

EliteUnit wrote @fourzerotwo: is the spawning system better then MW1

fourzerotwo wrote @EliteUnit: We've improved every aspect of the game. Including spawn logic to prevent spawns in danger, in front of enemies, etc.

GibsonD90 wrote @fourzerotwo: Have grenade physics or blast range been altered? I don't see how someone can throw a grenade over 3 buildings!?

fourzerotwo wrote @GibsonD90: Grenades actually HAVE physics now. Before they did not, so they'll react realistically to the environment and world around them.

Heirek wrote @fourzerotwo: Since there is snow maps now, will there be any snow ghillie suits?

fourzerotwo wrote @Heirek: Ohh yeah. Unique ghillie suits for each environment. Not only that, but enemy snipers look different than friendly snipers. #MW2

Calbino wrote @fourzerotwo: Will there be civilians on either Multiplayer/Special Ops?

fourzerotwo wrote @Calbino: There won't be any civilians in Multiplayer, but they add a layer of tactical gameplay in Single Player and Spec Ops missions. #MW2

ASnorkel wrote @fourzerotwo: What type of weather effects will there be on MP maps. ie. snow, rain, dust storms...

fourzerotwo wrote @ASnorkel: All of the above. Quite a few maps have varying degrees of visibility due to weather effects.

SeanC92 wrote @fourzerotwo: Are there snow maps in multiplayer?

fourzerotwo wrote @SeanC92: Yeah - there will be snow maps in Multiplayer.

Gametypes and Factions

Aggort wrote @fourzerotwo: Has IW considered any other TK penatlies?

fourzerotwo wrote @Aggort: Of course there are. Respawn delays among others, to the point that they're essentially not even in the game. Don't worry so much.

ShadowXOR wrote @fourzerotwo: Seems like none of this new stuff will benefit HC S&D like death/long kill streaks, tactical insertion, etc., anything for us?

fourzerotwo wrote @ShadowXOR: Riot Shield, Heartbeat Sensor, (silent & reclaimable) throwing knives, Lightweight & Commando perks. All HC S&D favorites of mine

USMCLepricon wrote @fourzerotwo: I can't say no kicking makes me happy. RPG team killers reign supreme I guess.

fourzerotwo wrote @USMCLepricon: If you're in a Ricochet HC playlist, then the RPG will just kill themselves. Won't damage the rest of the team.

USMCLepricon wrote @fourzerotwo: Whats up with the Kick System for HC S&D? Thats the only thing I've wanted to know.

fourzerotwo wrote @USMCLepricon: Still can't kick players in public matches, but we will incorporate Ricochet playlists so team damage is reflective.

EazyizMW2 wrote @fourzerotwo: is there gonna be an outfit custimization for your plyr

fourzerotwo wrote @EazyizMW2: Not visually. We focus on gameplay customization w/ weapon & class loadouts. Character models are determined by loadouts though.

Nunez757 wrote @fourzerotwo: Will there be a MLG playlist in the future?

fourzerotwo wrote @Nunez757: Not sure yet. We've been speaking with @MLG_sundance since early on and want to make it as MLG accessible as possible.

IRobitailleI wrote @fourzerotwo: how is search and destroy going to work with tactical insertion? you could just spawn in their spawn for the next round.

fourzerotwo wrote @IRobitailleI: There are no respawns in Search and Destroy so Tactical Insertion is useless there, I said S&D once meaning to say Demolition

Weapons and Equipment

Mainfold wrote (D)fourzerotwo: Does akimbo work like left button left weapon or both on left mouse?

fourzerotwo wrote (D)Mainfold8nine: Separate button per weapon. They fire independently of each other and reload independently of each other.

Mdusiek wrote @fourzerotwo: will it be possible to knifesnipe? I know gravity affects knife path but if u calculate it precisely?? Lol answear mate

fourzerotwo wrote @Mdusiek: Not possible. You can only throw it so far.

kraven911 wrote @fourzerotwo: When designing the weps for MW2 did you do Ballistics tests? Are the weps in-game refleted on that? Third try

fourzerotwo wrote @kraven911: Every weapon has a ballistics profile that determines how much it will penetrate an object, depending on that objects density.

Scorp96 wrote @fourzerotwo: How does the throwing knife work?

fourzerotwo wrote @Scorp96: It's a knife. That you throw. Has a slight arc to it, so takes skill to aim properly. If you miss, it'll stick & can be picked up.

iMakin wrote @fourzerotwo: do you have to equip a certain grenade so it is able to stick to the enemy?

fourzerotwo wrote @iMakin: You an customize your 'Equipment' now. So you'd have to give up a standard frag for a semtex, or a throwing knife, or tact insert.

arcticwolf1 wrote @fourzerotwo: we see some mines pop up in the Infamy vid similar to bettys from world @ war. Could you please tell us if they are in MP?

fourzerotwo wrote @arcticwolf1: No. That was a single player trailer, those mines aren't in multiplayer.

MW2_PS3 wrote @fourzerotwo: What is your favorite gun in the game?

fourzerotwo wrote @MW2_PS3: when you first get the game, I prefer the UMP45 until I unlock the ACR. Although recently the FAL has been my favorite, single shot

MatrixxGW wrote @fourzerotwo: with new weapons in #MW2 will there be challenges for each class like: Assault, Sniper etc with unlocking Attachments / Cammo?

fourzerotwo wrote @MatrixxGW: Yeah. Challenges per weapon, per class, and even weapons per attachment. Lots more challenges and different types of challenges.

3DuArD0242 wrote @fourzerotwo: Will the EOTECH sight be able to zoom in more then the Red Dot Sight?

fourzerotwo wrote @3DuArD0242: An EOTECH sight is holographic. It creates a sight picture (circle w/ dot in the middle) holographically in the scope. #MW2

JRLOLOL wrote @fourzerotwo: what are the possible attachment combinations with the bling perk? for example, heartbeat sensor and rds?

fourzerotwo wrote @JRLOLOL: You can combine any attachments you want, given they don't physically overlap each other. i.e. Red Dot can't fit on top of a scope.

TheNardDoger wrote @fourzerotwo: People are saying the Riot Shields are too overpowerd. Do they have a breaking point? Is it going to be balanced?

fourzerotwo wrote @TheNardDoger: No. They can't be destroyed but you're slow moving, plus shield gets cracks (so no visibility after awhile). Can't shoot also

Sub_Zero990 wrote @fourzerotwo: I read on IGN.com that some attachments now have effect ( like double-tap), if this is true can you tell us anything.

fourzerotwo wrote @Sub_Zero990: Correct, certain things that used to be perks are now attachments. Bandolier for example is now an Extended Mags attachment.

ArisNajeeb wrote @fourzerotwo: How does tactical insertion work when thrown out of a map?

fourzerotwo wrote @ArisNajeeb: Tactical Insertion can't be thrown out of the map, it's dropped at your feet, not thrown in #MW2

KollinNapier wrote @fourzerotwo: Will there be heat vision and/or night vision included in the game?

fourzerotwo wrote @KollinNapier Yeah - one of the new attachments is a Thermal Scope

Perks and Kill/Deathstreaks

chrisxchaos37 wrote @fourzerotwo: #mw2 if u r holding the laptop for the AC130, can u die while ur on the ground and the AC130 KS will end?

fourzerotwo wrote @chrisxchaos37: You can be killed when controlling a killstreak in the air, but your killstreak won't end. You'll finish it then respawn.

SplitHeavens wrote @fourzerotwo: Are Killstreaks customizable PER EACH class or do you only have ONE set for all classes?

fourzerotwo wrote @SplitHeavens: You customize your killstreaks independently of your create a class. So your killstreaks apply to ALL your classes. #MW2

Clgman666 wrote @fourzerotwo: Do pro versions of perks keep the non pro effect?

fourzerotwo wrote @Clgman666: Yeah. If you have a Pro version of the perk you get the new ability plus the previous ability. It's an addition not a replacement

NateSpeer wrote @fourzerotwo: do you need to prestige to unlock more kill-streak rewards in #MW2?

fourzerotwo wrote @NateSpeer: No. Killstreaks are unlocked through normal progression unlocks through the 70 ranks.

Mainfold8nine wrote @fourzerotwo: Thrown Knives + stopping power = ?

fourzerotwo wrote @Mainfold8nine: Perks don't apply to equipment. Unless it's specifically for one. Also, Throwing knives are deadly without stopping power

DTTCyrax wrote @fourzerotwo: dumb question, but are there still helicopters at 7 kills and airstrikes at 5 kills?

fourzerotwo wrote @DTTCyrax: Yeah, you can still go with the classics, but there are lots of others to choose from now.

Mr_fRuiitY wrote @fourzerotwo: do all perks have pro upgrades???

fourzerotwo wrote @Mr_fRuiitY: Yeah. Every perk has a Pro version. Which essentially doubles the amount of abilities available as each has its unique benefit.

omfgitstwittter wrote @fourzerotwo: Will death streaks be unlocked only when you prestige? (ie 1 unlock per prestige) #MW2

fourzerotwo wrote @omfgitstwittter: No. At least 1 deathstreak is unlocked when you first get the game, and you'll unlock more as you rank up.

TimzZ wrote @fourzerotwo: Can u tell lil' somethin bout the Sentry gun? Is it destroyable, can u choose whre 2 place it? Can u get klld by ur own sentry?

fourzerotwo wrote @TimzZ: Yes, you have to place it once you get it. After it's placed it can be destroyed by enemies. It'll auto fire on enemies in it's fof

skaxbomb wrote @fourzerotwo: Have we already seen all of the perks? Or is there more to come that you haven't shown?

fourzerotwo wrote @skaxbomb: Theres quite a few perks we haven't shown. We've only revealed up to lvl 27 out of 70 lvls.

DarKILLICIOUS wrote @fourzerotwo: How do you get pro perks?

fourzerotwo wrote @DarKILLICIOUS: the more you use a perk the more experience you get towards unlocking the pro version of that perk, like specializing skills.

isramrrus wrote @fourzerotwo: now that you have added sentry guns as a perk, will you get rid of mounted mgs?

fourzerotwo wrote @isramrrus: Sentry guns are a killstreak, not a perk and mounted MGs remain still on certain maps.

DevilDogNick wrote @fourzerotwo: how do you destroy a sentry gun? with a gun or explosives?

fourzerotwo wrote @DevilDogNick: A sentry gun can be destroyed by anything, best tactic is to flank it, get up behind, and give it a knife to the circuity

OoDarryLoO wrote @fourzerotwo: does the cold blooded perk counter the hbs? if possible can you tell me exactly what it does counter

fourzerotwo wrote @OoDarryLoO: Coldblooded counters detection from Killstreaks. Notice in the AC-130 video how enemies have Red Block identifiers around them?

Calbino wrote @fourzerotwo: Can all team-mates benefit off a care package/enemy care package? Plus how long do the care packages remain in the game?

fourzerotwo wrote @Calbino: Care Packages can be used by anyone and even stolen by enemy players. Which is why they're great to use as bait! #MW2

EliasBrache wrote @fourzerotwo: could it be possible to take down a chopper with the ac-130?

fourzerotwo wrote @EliasBrache: Yeah. If an enemy chopper is in the air while you're in the AC-130 you can fire down on top of it to shoot it down.

SeanC92 wrote @fourzerotwo: Do you get to choose what the air drop drops, if that makes sense?

fourzerotwo wrote @SeanC92: Nope. Air Drops are random. They could be an ammo resupply or an awesome killstreak reward. Its luck of the draw.

BrickkTamlandd wrote @fourzerotwo: Hello! Regarding the AC-130 gunship killstreak reward, I have a concern.. Anti-Missle flares. How do you shoot it down???

fourzerotwo wrote @BrickkTamlandd: Teamwork. It takes two rockets to take down an AC-130 in MP. Meaning you can't do it alone but can do it as a team.

Other/General

TimzZ wrote @fourzerotwo: I've just seen the achievements of the classic COD1. Will that be available on the day of release of #MW2 ?

fourzerotwo wrote @TimzZ: Yeah, Call of Duty: Classic for XBLA & PSN should be available for download on launch ONLY for Hardened + Prestige Edition who got it

Lynexis wrote @fourzerotwo: What's the reason you don't ship a multi-language version - or at least a version with english language and local subs?

fourzerotwo wrote @Lynexis: Typically not enough space on the disc to include the full game, english language & localized audio / dialogue for each region

SpearrOAU wrote @fourzerotwo: how is the remake of the original COD coming along? Will it support achievments/trophies too?

fourzerotwo wrote @SpearrOAU: Yeah. Call of Duty: Classic on XBLA and PSN will have Achievements and Trophies. Multiplayer as well.

mlgsnipes wrote @fourzerotwo: Are the in game leaderboards more in depth this time around?

fourzerotwo wrote @mlgsnipes: There have been some improvements.

mljohn944 wrote @fourzerotwo: Are the third-person animations better in Modern Warfare 2 than in Call of Duty 4?

fourzerotwo wrote @mljohn944: Very much so, we put a lot of effort into #MW2 in making sure the 3rd person animations were just as polished as the 1st person.

ZR0Ver2 wrote @fourzerotwo: Has the issue of hosts quitting games just as they're about to lose been addressed. Its a serious problem on the PS3.

fourzerotwo wrote @ZR0Ver2: Yeah. We have in-game Host Migration in #MW2 now, so even if a host leaves, the game resumes exactly where it left off.

DarkCntentFilms wrote @fourzerotwo: Are there any gametypes you have unrevealed to the public?

fourzerotwo wrote @DarkCntentFilms: There's a lot of every aspect of the game that remains to be revealed, and will never be revealed.

boyle111 wrote @fourzerotwo: Keep asking this but stil Prob no more MP info but any plans for more vids? Even if it's showing stuff we already know?

fourzerotwo wrote @boyle111: it's a possibility. Been capturing a lot of footage for press (like the recent GTTV episode). Hope to do at least a few more vids

DannyWR88 wrote @fourzerotwo: will there be #mw2 xbl avatar store/rewards?

fourzerotwo wrote @DannyWR88 Yeah - we're working on a few cool things

zZGAMESTARZz wrote @fourzerotwo: will you be able to keep track of all the acollades you have got? Like collect them?

fourzerotwo wrote @zZGAMESTARZz: Yeah. You can view your previous Accolades at any time and see how many of each you've received.

bins69 wrote @fourzerotwo: will #PS3 get trophies this time?

fourzerotwo wrote @bins69: Yes. The PS3 version of #MW2 will have trophies and rumble support and we even have some dynamic themes in the works for the PS3 XMB

AussieSpirit wrote @fourzerotwo: I know you are not talking about prestige but Will there be prestige for the PC in Modern Warfare 2?

fourzerotwo wrote @AussieSpirit: Yes, the PC version of #MW2 will have Prestige mode in multiplayer just like the console version.

AndyK09 wrote @fourzerotwo: Is the HUD sizeable/moveable?

fourzerotwo wrote @AndyK09: Yep - you can scale the vertical and horizontal horizons for your specific television so the HUD placement is perfect #MW2

bobcooley2000 wrote @fourzerotwo: So when can we expect to see some more #ModernWarfare2 footage/details?

fourzerotwo wrote @bobcooley2000: We have a @Spike_TV episode coming up on the 8th we film next week, but something planned before that as well!

@fourzerotwo: sweet are you tapping a strictly mw2 promo show .. or something else ???

fourzerotwo wrote @B3LTF3D: Yeah, it's an entire episode dedicated to Modern Warfare 2! I'm stoked, filming some never before seen footage for it. #MW2

Wolfboy wrote @fourzerotwo: How is the LAN system going to work, is it like CoD4 where it's preset, or can we look forward to a tournament friendly setup?

fourzerotwo wrote @Wolfboy: LAN / Offline is very Tournament friendly in #MW2. Full create a class and rank progression but separate from your online rank

xDeathReaperx wrote @fourzerotwo: will there be a MUTE BUTTON in the Lobby??

fourzerotwo wrote @xDeathReaperx Yeah - there will be lobby mute. #MW2

MrHydroLV wrote @fourzerotwo: so whats the good reasons to prestige? and go beyond 10th or u cant tell until release

fourzerotwo wrote @MrHydroLV: There are going to be a few rewards for hitting prestige in #MW2 - can't go into details, but there will be goodness to be had

Xlom3000 wrote @fourzerotwo: is there built in modded controller deterance in MW2? Maybe a forced rate of fire check?

fourzerotwo wrote @Xlom3000 Yeah - we're addressing modded controllers in #MW2 - slightly different than the Rate of Fire cap we did in COD4 recently

MichaelCadenas wrote @fourzerotwo: why did you guys decide to make top level 70 !??! What was worng with 55 ????!!????

fourzerotwo wrote @MichaelCadenas: We have a lot more weapons, perks, attachments, callsign items, and equipment to unlock this time, needed more levels!

Retchford wrote @fourzerotwo: do you prestige at level 55 and are the badges on the net somewhere or is that kept on the down low?

fourzerotwo wrote @Retchford: No - Max level in #MW2 is Lvl 70 this time. We're keeping the Prestige icons under lock and key.

ItzEddie wrote @fourzerotwo: Is there a region searching function in #MW2?

fourzerotwo wrote @ItzEddie: There isn't an option to search specific regions / countries when matchmaking, but there is improved matchmaking to auto-assist

402's reply on local search:

fourzertwo wrote Alright, let me attempt to clarify as much as possible as its clear that there is some misunderstanding on how matchmaking works in Modern Warfare 2 for international users.

The functionality you're asking for, the ability to connect to BEST connection rather than first available game aka quickest match, is already built into the matchmaking.

There is no need to include an additional toggle where you manually have to ask it to put you in the game best suited for your connection, that should all be done automatically without requiring you, the player, to go through an extra step to request it.

That's what I was referring to in the tweet of, "you don't select a region or country, it is auto-assist". Meaning, matchmaking will automatically put you in the best game for YOUR connection.

My statement was NOT to be taken as, "its the same as COD4". Just because there isn't a menu option doesn't mean the same functionality isn't being done on the backend.

We're doing extensive beta testing of Modern Warfare 2 internally, including with our Activision partners worldwide to test instances JUST LIKE THIS. Which is why I assure you a lot of your concerns will be unfounded come launch. However, we'll still continue to monitor activity and performance for our international users post-launch and address anything that may arise.

So I encourage you, put away the pitchforks and torches for the moment until you see it in action. Then feel free to raise any concerns you may have, for now I stand behind our matchmaking for US AND international users.

If there are any other concerns you think we're not aware of, I encourage you to let me know. This kind of response is good, shows you guys are passionate about the game, and I want to ensure you we're just as passionate about making sure you're heard and concerns are addressed.

I'm giving this one more try.
