    Is the MW an RPG?

    I have MW and MW2. Played the first for about an hour and the second even less. Frankly I think the game sucks. Heres the question, I was at work the other day and overheard a kid saying he was a level 50. That confused the hell out of me because as far as I know, you dont level your character in MW. Can anyone explain to me what he is talking about?

    ............the online multiplayer uses a leveling system, based on XP.

    Nope but there's XP that you earn to unlock things if you consider that to define your RPGs.

    It's an FPS game with RPG mechanics. 
     
    In multiplayer, you gain XP by racking up kills, winning games, and performing various challenges. Higher levels unlocks different weapons, perks, and equipment. It's a shame you haven't at least experienced the Modern Warfare multiplayer. Even if you don't like it, I suggest you at least play a few rounds to see what it's like.

    @methmouth: Yeah, everybody who kills me is a cheater too. Or they use cheap overpowered noob weapons. Or they stay still too much. Or they run around too much. Or they use heartbeat sensors because they suck. Or they use cheap noob perks. In fact, the game would be much better if everybody just stayed still so that I can kill them.

    @methmouth: No not that specifically, I am just waiting for certain people to come in and talk about how rpgs are poorly named then someone else to come and say everything is an RPG, then someone else says JRPGs are stupid and the thread never dies.

    @methmouth: Hahahahahahahaha! (Takes second to breath, then continues.) Hahahahahahhahahaha! (Takes another second to breath, then continues again.) Hahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa!
     
    Are you serious? You played both and didn't even try your own quick look of the multiplayer.
     
    You must've at least heard casual people talking about the multiplayer.
     
    Oh well... It takes all kinds I suppose. Lol.
     
    Second comment@methmouth:You're actually moaning about people killing you in the multiplayer. The MAJORITY of players don't cheat, and granted there's a larger number of cheaters considering, but not enough by far to deserve your comment.
    You're probably just not very good at it.
    And aside from that, if you can't take the fact that you'll inevitably die every so often, if not quite frequently, while you're playing a multiplayer game then you really shouldn't play multiplayer modes at all, because you'd probably have pulminary failure out of anger at the fact you were stabbed from behind in-game.
     
    My advice: Get over it, that's how multiplayers work. Get used to the odd cheater, I mean a moderate to small percentage of the worlds population are cheaters in their general life, so again I say: "Get over it.".
    But the last and most important, stop assuming that people cheat just because they killed you really easily. The game is programmed so that you have to be on the lookout all the time, if you're not on the lookout all the time, then you're opening yourself up to being attacked more easily. Also, if you don't get that then you have no real right to complain.
