Erm is that not the same guy who said Bobby Kotick is "alright"? lol

Anyway, first I have heard about public files. I'll wait until something is official and even then I would wait until people actually get their hands on them.

"Now, after listening to players, IW and Sledgehammer will try the first method again. Modern Warfare 3 will feature free, run-it-yourself COD4-style dedicated server support because the hardcore fans have been very clear (if not terribly polite) in their feedback."


I'll believe it when I see it. I highly doubt dedicated server files. How will they rape all the fans for dlc money? CoD elite maybe? Consider the current state of lolMoD tools for blops. Those were given to us by guys(Treyarch) I actually believe give a sh*t about their PC community. Activision controls all. I doubt activision is intimidated enough by BF3 and HoS to actually give us a respectable CoD. Bobby Kotex recently stated he didn't understand why Dice was paying so much attention to the PC market segment with BF3. Why give a sh*t now?

How soon we forget... MW2 had dedicated servers until a month before release.

I don't think it matters anymore. Current CoD fans don't care about stuff like dedicated servers and public server files. Maybe CoD fans are just excited because this "MAY" bring back a few old school players due to nostalgia.

Then again in a perfect world this could all be true. You'll still be paying $60 for a CoD4 mod. :cry:

This guy is an offical activision community rep, thus what he says is official. Also, Sledgehammer and IW have been tweeting that "free" dedis are confirmed which implies non hosted, public files.

Also, dedis hold priority over Elite. See here: http://oneofswords.com/2011/08/what-mw3 ... uty-elite/

Sorry, Activision, I don't feel like playing CoD4 again, tyvm.

Honestly ? Really? you guys serious !?

Its dedicated server files, open and on the disk. run your own server from your own box ! just like we all asked for, We get them and some of you are saying "well F you , i aint playing it anyways" ?!!! do yourself a favour, dont post, dont log onto a Cod inspired forum, dont click on the MW3 link and dont post your poinless sh!t . this is part of the reason sites like this are grinding to a halt. get a grip , be a gamer.

This is a good thing for PC gaming full stop, If your a BF3 fan then It helps you too, untill MW3 got Dedis Dice had the PC market sewn up, they had you 100% no matter what, now IW/Sledgehammer have added open dedicated server files, now BF3 has some serious competition and have to work a little harder for your money .

Only the stuck up so called PC elitists would cry foul on servers, get them servers then cry for the sake of it.

Yes! Modern Warfare 3 on PC will support dedicated servers, day 1. You can fav or admin your own to control setup, rules, bans. #MW3 #PC


And a pretty good explaination (and well written) of why PC isnt in the Elite Beta as yet :

What MW3 dedicated servers could mean to Call of Duty Elite

For anybody who does not listen to the weekly One of Swords podcast, this week we started talking about what the impact of MW3′s dedicated servers could have on Call of Duty Elite. Specifically, I spotted this interview with Noah Heller at Eurogamer which got me thinking. He said:

We’re working really hard right now on the customised version of Elite for the PC, because it’s an open platform and has some challenges.

Hmm. While they both coexist as valid options for gamers, PCs and consoles grew out of — and still inhabit — different ecosystems. The PC is absolutely not a console. (Ask any hardcore PC player and they’ll loudly and proudly agree.) The PC’s strength as an “open platform” is the fact that you can make it do whatever you want. Dedicated servers, configurable as the admin sees fit, put a lot of power into the hands of the players, which is exactly the way we PC gamers like it. But when it comes to something like Elite, that freedom could mess up everything. You need to know that the data being reported from the servers is not being altered — which strikes me as impossible if the servers themselves are inherently and gloriously alterable. If the stats are cocked up, those stats are meaningless — and it would be an abject nightmare for anyone trying to run competitions based on that data. And that’s a big part of Elite.
