Subject: Spec Ops = Firefight?

This is NOT another MW2 hate threads.
When I played Spec Ops I got to thinking. That this is alot like Firefight. Think about it. They're both non-campaign modes that don't fit in to multiplayer exactly and they both make you feel like your in the campaign but not in the campaign.
What do you think? Are they kind of the same or different?

I think they are very different. Spec Ops gives you a variety of different missions you can do such as riding in helicopters, checkpoint races, and other timed missions where as firefight you just defend against an endless horde of Covenant.

Both are good but I still have more fun with firefight.

The only way they are the same is that they are game extras... =P

Me too. Only because Spec Ops, like the rest of Modern Warfare 2, is way too brief. None of the missions are fleshed out enough to be much fun.

Death to rank junkies.

Firefight > Spec Ops

I only did Spec Ops for the achievements, and didn't have much fun doing it. Firefight can be a lot of fun, though.

Perhaps, but the story still carried me through ODST. Agreed that most ODST missions weren't fleshed out enough to be great fun, but on the flip side, most of the Spec Ops took no more than 5 minutes, without rushing. Each ODST mission took a good 15, usually even with rushing.

But still, we're comparing Spec Ops and Firefight, not Spec Ops and ODST's missions. Firefight is one game mode that's really fleshed out, and that's something you have to admit. You can literally play it for hours, while the Spec Ops won't take you that long (for just one mission/map, no less).
