To avoid cheating online, Infinity Ward removed Party Chat in Modern Warfare 2. Over the past few weeks Infinity Ward has come under fire for its decision to cut dedicated servers from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on PC. Today, news of console-side restrictions has emerged as a poster on the NeoGAF forums learned that Infinity Ward will disable Party Chat for Xbox Live users, and will reset the leaderboards when the game ships next week. NeoGAF user Accident managed to get an early copy of MW2, but when he tried to join a game in Party Chat, he was given the message to switch to in-game chat or leave the game. While a screenshot from an advance copy of MW2 revealed the Party Chat-disabling, Infinity Ward community manager Robert Bowling divulged the leaderboard info on his Twitter. "It definitely looks like a full leaderboard / level reset is in order just before the release date to ensure no unfair advantages," Bowling explains.

IW is making some dumb decisions. Total bullshit that you can't be in a party, talking with your friends. I don't want to have a conversation with everyone in the room, just my friends. |

Another stupid decision by Infinity Ward in my opinion. The game looks fun, but I never really had plans on buying, I've actually never even played CoD4 MW yet. |
