For the reading of all you PC gamers, think twice if your buying this game to play online.

* Max players is 9v9
(The PC version of CoD4 can support up to 26v26!) - this is just plain terrible but its evidence that the lack of dedi servers will have its effect on gamesizes.

* NO command console
Players will not be unable to adjust their graphics settings / use quick commands to launch,admin or connect to servers - what a joke

* NO /record function
Players will be unable to record game footage without using clunky resource heavy programs like FRAPs to record live footage - dont expect to see frag videos, or a competitive scene (90% of people wont get why this is a crock of sh1t)

* NO Leaning
Thats right no left/right leaning - this may seem a miinor concern to most however leaning is a fundament of the CoD series which gives the game a lot of its balance - an unwelcome change imo.

* NO Mod tools at or near launchThis means no custom maps or modding community - no official confirmation of this yet - not a suprise to anyone id imagine but still fairly ****

* Latency of 100ms on average
The developers said that when using an AMERICAN broadband connection they play with an average ping of 100ms - this is just ****ing pathetic - Us Irish gamers can look forward to playing MP with higher pings again as our average broadband speeds would be lower then most US cable/adsl broadband variants - not to mention our pathetic upload speeds. This point is an absolute crippler for the game - regardless of what level you are in CoD you are going to notice a degradation in the fluidity of the game - and dont even think about trying to host a server!

- before anyone says "the console version works fine on Irish broadband with no lag" please keep in mind a PC creates up to 5 times the bandwidth overhead of its console counterparts - not to mention other processes which run in the background like vent,xfire and of course steam!

* No ability to kick/ban players from ranked games.
When the game is plagued by hackers, team-killers,bug abusers and noisy kids you wont be able to remove them from a game - EVEN IF YOU ARE THE HOST. I am actaully gobsmacked at the sheer ignorance of such a situation (and it will be)

All in all, even before this game is released I am encouraging every PC gamer I know to stay away from this game - I am sure the single-player will be an epic enjoyable experience however that does not justify the (inflated price) purchase of what is in essence a heavily stripped down version of one of my most played games. The vast majority of gamers wont understand why this conrcupia of issues effects their game until its too late - I am aware of how much this looks like a nerd-rage rant but forgive me for thinking snowmobiles and fancy new weapons are not a substitute for solid developer support.
 
as far as i remember you dont need to pre order it once u are there at midnight queueing up, u will get a copy, thats how it was with Halo 3 release.'

@wetpatch - buy a console!
