Making 2 or More Profile on MW2

    Hi,

    I was wondering how can I make 2 or more profiles in MW2?Just like the first one. I've got MW2 installed on my PC. I've made a new account with Steam. The first account was fine. I can play both single and multiplayer. Then my brother opened a new account as well with Steam, but using the same PC. It turns out that my brother cannot play either Single or Multiplayer Game by using his account. Is this the difference now between the COD 4 and MW2, that you cannot have two or more different profiles? Is there only one profile that you can play on each PC?

    I might have overlooked something that I should do. But I am not an expert in PC.

    Appreciate your help.

    Thanks.

    Probably due to the amount of H'caps that boost their K/D ratio by making multiple accounts.

    silly me, I should have read some forum first before i post. I've found out in one of the forums, that MW2 does not have Multiple Profile support. One game>one person>one PC.

    Does this mean i have to buy another MW2 with different product key code and install it on the same PC? is this possible to install same game with differenct product code in one PC?

    if you buy it a second time,
    your brother will need to sign into his steam account,
    and activate the second game on there.
    so that it will be tied to his,
    while the first game is tied to yours.

    your better off just letting your brother use your account.

    Is it possible to install same game under one PC?Will it not ask, that a game already installed?

    But anyway, Im not going to buy one more. Hoping that this will be fixed in the future.
