So it begins. The controversy has already started to grow over the "LEVEL" in MW2. I'm curious what everyone here thinks about it.

I personally chose to play the level when given the choice at the beginning of the game and after going through it, I hoinestly don't have a problem with it. I did feel funny being part of it because I usually do not like GTA type games so I actually went through most of it without firing a shot (until I had to toward the end of it) but it is just an event that makes sense in the overall picture of the story to me. It adds shock value (especially at the end of it) and it makes me want to get at the enemy even more.

Although I never play games whose goal is to attack innocents, cops, etc. I don't actually see this as the same thing because it was just a small portion of the game and IW chose to make us part of the action instead of making us watch a long cutscene.

That's my 2 cents.

I started it and ended up skipping it a few minutes in.

I decided to still get the game. When I got to that mission I started it, afraid I'd miss some important info, but as soon as they started opening up on the people, it was skip and move on time for me. Not going to play that. But I do have a question for those who have played through or know but its a spoiler question:

When I skipped the airport mission, apparently your first character Allen is killed. What exactly happened? I can only image your character would not and could not participate in this scenario any longer even though he was undercover and as a result, blew his cover to put a stop to it. Is that it? I just want to know why and how he died.


p.s. The mountain mission with your old character Soap is stinkin' cool.

I did fail the mission once for putting about 60 rounds in Makarov's back.

I will probably play it on another play through to find out the answer to Coot's question but due to recent events it was just too much right now.

Yes the mountain mission was awesome.

when the killing is done there is an ambulance waiting to take you and the terrorists away. instead of getting in the ambulance the main bad guy shoots your character as you are trying to get in.

his cover is not blown. he is killed just because he is an American. the terrorist says that he is killing you so that the Russians will blame the Americans for the airport massacre.

i doubt that it matters whether you kill anyone or not. the outcome will be the same. i did not kill any civilians, but towards the end some security types arrive and i did kill some of them.

@ kramer

Thanks for answering Coot's question but I have a question. How do you reply with a "Show Me" box to prevent spoilers? I tries to respond but couldn't figure it out and therefore said nothing. I figured that was better than posting a portion of the story all over the board. wink
