Robert "FourZeroTwo" Blowing dropped a little bomb on the IW forums today:
In theory, IW could set up a system similar to what L4D uses to allow players to run custom maps, but I guarantee that won't happen. Does anyone really think that IW is going to unlock the dev console so people can test their maps? At most, you'll get a custom rule set maker for private matches, and that will be it.
And that's if you get anything at all. Don't count on it.
Yes, we currently plan to release some mod tools for Modern Warfare 2 for PC in the future. No eta or date has been set on when you can expect them however. Other than that, there hasn't been much movement on them. If this progresses, I'll let you know.A poster by the name of "brokenangel" asked this question:
and how the F*ck do you plan on distributing the content fool?402 responded:
There would definitely need to be a patch for the inclusion of mod tools and for the use / testing of them. I'm sure once the release date of the tools is closer, then I'll have those details for you.There's just no effing way.
Right now though, I'd consider the Mod Tools as something that we'd like to add. Not something that is guaranteed to be added as I know game updates, patches, and DLC are currently the priority of the team.

If I take a look outside, I see the sun shining on the horizon. But even that is an illusion.
