Those countries are close but aren't superpowers.

Only the USA at the current moment. China is getting there. Russia still has some of it's ability as a former Superpower.

That's it.

What is or isn't a superpower is based on opinion, at which point is a country no longer a power, but a superpower? Opinion decides.

It isn't opinion.

The USA is the only Superpower. The USSR, the British Empire and USA have been the only superpowers so far. Not debatable. What is debatable is what countries can become superpowers.

To be a superpower, a country has to be able to project it's interests to the world and influence events to it's own gain. Most of the time, in more then one place at a time. Can France do that? England? Chine? Russia?

Opinion does not decide.

EDIT: Anybody know the name of the song in the launch trailer?

Wow this has just turned into a debate about superpowers. Batman does not have superpowers, and he never did.

Anyways I'm really psyched for the UMP45, but I'm pissed about the FAMAS because I'm pretty sure it's burst fire. I'm really liking what I've seen of the maps so far. The CoD 4 maps all seemed too similar, to where they all just started blending together. Seems like there will be a lot more color and variety this time.

And another thing, how do you akimbo? I seems like it would be a perk, or is it under the attachments or something?


There are varying degrees of evil, we urge you lesser forms of filth not to push the bounds and cross over into true corruption, into our domain.
But if you do, one day you will look behind you and you will see we three and on that day you will reap it. And we will send you to which ever god you wish.

I am changing the superpower debate.

I think level 70 is a bit to high unless we level up faster in multiplayer. I know we get 50 xp per kill and stuff, but that doesnt mean we dont have to have 2000 xp till level 2.

I think 70 is fine. There was 60 levels i think in cod4 nows theres 770?. The scores are really the same. Like in cod4 it would be 10xp a kill and 1000 to level. Now its like 50xp and 5000xp to level. I think they did this to balance out the score difference in playlists and different scoring methods. Its also level 70 to increase cod's multiplayer playability that bit more than cod4's 10 prestige.

DIFFERENT TOPIC: I was playing on a friends modded console and i found out you can level in custom games/private match. MEANING easy boosting :[. Sorta ruined mw2 a bit for me now. I wanted to have the feel of putting all the effort into getting mw2 10 prestige but now that u can boost so easily.... seriously i got to level 24 in about an hour of straight killing guest controllers.

ALSO ive been playing around with the SCAR and it feels overpowered but this is crippled by the really low clip and ammo supplies. Sucks that bling and scavenger are in the same tier. Cause rocking the heartbeat sensor and red dot on the scar is awesome, but theres like no ammo. But if i go scavenger i only get one attachment, and its red dot cause the scars iron sights suck.
Yeah the scar is powerfull but balanced, waiting for the game to get up to 48 so i can see how the Bushmaster stands up against the SCAR. (Bushmaster is like my fav rl gun). From what ive seen it looks a tad weaker and tad slower fire rate but larger clip more ammo and iron sights i can actually play with.

Wow long post....

Yeah from looking at trailers a long time ago the Bushmaster was my fav, but after playing the SCAR is my fav until i compare it to the Bushmaster.The scars reload animation is probably the coolest too, and theres a coll little details on some guns. Like the scar as a holder clip thing on the front that flails around when you shoot around reload. The game is alot like COD4 still. Which is sort of dissapointing, cause theres no huge major changes but i expected that so. S
