An interview on GameSpy chats with Robert bowling of Infinity Ward about the Windows PC edition of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, their upcoming military shooter sequel. He reiterates all the PC-specific features the game will offer that were missing from Modern Warfare 2, says the server browser will only offer the ability to sort by ping, changes to matchmaking algorithms, that they are not certain whether user-hosted servers can be ranked, the reason for removing dedicated servers from MW2 and adding them back to MW3, cheat prevention, how MW2's system requirements are slightly higher than MW3's, their uncertainty over whether they will ever support user-created mods again, and more.

This is what I never understood. Quake used QuakeC. Here it is. Good luck. Final result is some of the best games and mods of all time. And mapping/modelling was the same. HL had Worldcraft(or whatever it was) and it wasn't any easier.
