J4MES OX4D 10,034 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Backwards compatibility now enabled https://charlieintel.com/2018/08/28/mw2-xbox-one-bc/ Strange decision to do this so close to the release of BO4 and now questions will be raised about the MW2 'remaster' but it's great to see this finally happen. The game may have had its problems but it will still go down as one of the most groundbreaking and enjoyable games ever made in an unforgettable era of games.

Sennex 1,903 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I don't see to many folks questioning it. I know I didn't. It was fun as hell to play it again, I plan on doing a marathon of the campaign this weekend. Luke 23:34 'And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they don't think it be like it is, but it do."

I'm talking about the rumored remaster and whether it will even happen now. Indications suggested that they held back on doing backwards compatibility because a remastered version was incoming to replace the BO4 camapaign or to fill in for the 10 year anniversary. Now Raven are dedicated to working on Black Ops 4 Blackout this year and as MW4 is supposedly coming next year; people are wondering now that MW2 has been made backwards compatible, whether the remaster has been cancelled altogether.

Highrise, Afghan, Favela, Scrapyard, Terminal, Skidrow - all amazing maps for me. So good and refreshing to play on ones that have variety in terms of sizes and aesthetics. I'm so tired of these shitty 3 lane focused shoebox sized maps we see these days where you can only go left, right or middle.

Also Scrapyard, Village and probably more. But there wasn't 335692 places to check for enemies as it is nowadays.

There were some maps which had a loose three lane layout for sure but it was nice to play on others which didn't as it added to the variety. Back then we got small, all the way up to large maps and they weren't designed with three lanes in mind or a competitive-focus. Back then you could really choose a selection of gameplay styles and weapons like AR's and snipers had some use as intended rather than just quickscoping. Nowadays it's all about SMG's because that's all you need really. A longshot medal now is shooting someone 10 yards away it seems.

phil bottle 9,759 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Favela was more than just a 3 lane map, it had plenty of verticality and rooftop action.I loved leaving claymores in certain places.Epic map in my opinion[emoji41]Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk J4MES OX4D 1 Link to comment https://forevergaming.co.uk/forum/forums/topic/6265-mw2-xbox-one/#findComment-110418 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backwards Compatibility is one of the best features of the system. It absolutely destroys the PS4's attempt at backwards games to be honest J4MES OX4D and GazzaGarratt 2 Luke 23:34 'And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they don't think it be like it is, but it do."

Trying to get from the east side spawn in that shitty store, over to teh warehouse in one piece was tricky. And then sweeping that building was just stressful fun. I never had a bad game there.
