Finished veteran in 6 and a half hours. Only achievements left are spec ops ones No Overkill, Bling is epic though. As for scopes, no thermals or anything but you do get red dots, holographic etc As for the "news" that there will be DLC... I think if you look at how much money they must have made on WAW, MW2 was always going to have DLC so i'm not surprised. I'm really impressed with it online and I was very dubious about it before hand. I think the accolades, titles and emblems idea is good. The new perks do seem to limit your ability to need to make good classes which is a shame however the pro perks is a good idea. The last kill killcam is a good idea and I also really like the killstreak rewards although I think the deathstreaks kinda seem like an afterthought. The maps overall are bigger but I kind of predicted that when they brought in like 13 assault rifles and only 5 or so SMG's if I remember right. The new unlockables like the thermal scope (which is fantastic except on snow maps which makes no sense) and the heartbeat sensor are really cool and I like the way you have to use each attachment to unlock a related improvement. Just really like ti so far, apart from the noob tubers and the campers which seem to be everywhere on it at the moment. I'm hoping after time the skill elevel will improve so we'll see less camping.
