burning_phoenix that doesn't make sense. If they make a non-moddable dedicated server (as some games have), the only way to have mods is to hack the game.

But if you hack the game, you can hack the p2p version too.

Yep, it will get hacked and people will be able to play it on dedicated servers. My question is will this negate profile stats for people playing on the dedicated servers? All perks and level based unlockables will need to be unlocked from the get go because I doubt the functionality of leveling up will work without going through IW's system. Thoughts on this?

^Double indeed.
Id and their IP is not as prominent as they once were. Just look at how the new Wolfenstein game bombed.

Good, I'd get the game hacked simpley to get rid of the shitty levelling system they have. If I wanted levelling I'll go play an RPG, if I wanna shoot things, then I wanna shoot things FFS...

Tbh, I think their main efforts are focused on Rage right now, so I didn't expect too much from the new Wolfenstein. But if they follow this trend of removing DS, they're really going to tarnish their image forever.

PC gamers should all convert to hardcore battlefield fans.

Newer FPS may fail you, but BF2 is still the most fun FPS ever.

LOL. Why are you even bitching about the servers thing? You obviously would not like(or pay for) this game regardless.

I don't know what to say because I haven't read much about this game. Are there unlockables?

One thing is state-less dedicated servers for a playing sesssion... another one is a MMORPG-style server with stored player information. That's not what I thought "dedicated servers" referred to here.
