Has anyone figure out how to set up multiple profiles? I would like to set one up for myself and my son. So far no luck. Thanks in advance.

Don't think you can, hell you cannot even change your name in game.

Your name is determined by your Steam nickname (in Steam go to Settings and it's in one of the tabs)...looks like we got screwed with Steam as there's no way I can find to create more than one profile unless you have a second key you can activate the product with for another user on the same PC.

From the steam website:

CAN I USE MULTIPLE STEAM ACCOUNTS ON ONE COMPUTER?

Yes, you can access different Steam accounts from one computer. However, you may only access one account at a time.
The accounts will share the core files for any games the accounts have in common, but each account will maintain its own custom content and configuration files.

So? We can?
How?
My brother and I bought this game.
He made an account, but I want an account too, so I did.
How can I play at my own account now??
What will happen if i fill in the Serial at activate product?
I didn't try yet because it will ban me or something..

Everye account needs a different key. That's the way it's designed.
Otherwise I could give the key to a friend, relative or who ever else and they could play as wel. Buying an extra copy will solve it.

if you dual boot with two operating systems, install steam on both and MW2 on both, you can have two separate campaigns on the same machine and same profile. bit of a hassle but its the only way i've found.

Click on the link and/or post a message on the Steam boards they are the specialist who can give you the correct answers.

Hey all,

I've created a custom loader that adds multiple profile support for Modern Warfare 2. Try it out and see how it works for you. If you have any questions or need help just leave a comment on the article.
