Fuck you Bobby Kotick

Good job I hopped off the CoD bandwagon after CoD4.

Bobby Kotick eats babies.

Naw I'll fucking pay a subscription for a p2p hosted game.

This sounds goddamn stupid. I am definitly not going to pay for it. They don't even have dedicated servers.

[quote]According to the Activision CFO, there is a demand from its core fanbase to pay for additional services. [/quote] I am sorry, but who the fuck is mr. Core Fanbase

The only single game I will pay monthly for is EVE, and that's it.

[QUOTE=Skelmech;19081661]Does this include MW2? because i was about to buy that :([/QUOTE] Me too. I mean seriously, can they do that? Release a game with free multiplayer and then change the rules?

fuck them why the fuck did i buy a computer in the first place if i wanted to deal with this stupid shit the pc does not equal the xbox, and fuck them for thinking so they take away our dedicated servers, they want to charge us for their maps and they take away our modding abilities - fuck them

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 6! All for a cheap, low price of $120! Included in the basic package of the game is 2 missions out of the total 5 in the single player campaign! Buy the rest for $20! Multiplayer now comes with over 19 whopping weapons, 6 of which are included in the basic package! Want an M4A1? Too bad! Every additional 13 weapons comes at a cost of $2.99 each! And did we mention to even PLAY multiplayer you have to pay us $15 a month to connect to our egregiously crappy IWNet service? It's true! Ugh. FUCK OFF ACTIVISION. As if WoW didn't stroke your money ego enough.

Monthly payments for games that require no server upkeep on the Developer side. Fuck You. If they actually go through with this they will replace EA on my Most Hated gaming Company Paying Money for a game and then 15/mo for it's server upkeep is a model for MMO's and it has an actual reason behind it... Where's the reason to have a game like MW2 in your lap, paid for $60 fucking dollars, and then pay Monthly to play when every online game you get into is hosted by another player, That's just like stupid Fees my ISP likes to tack onto my bill for NO REASON AT ALL, Licensing Fee for Broadcasting Companies $8, Florida Broadcasting Tax or some shit, $6, Fuck that

Jesus fucking christ this thread has been bumped and has reminded me of the retardation. This is as stupid as those groups on facebook that are against "Paying for Facebook on July 1st 2010" They will never do it, it wouldn't be viable, they'd lose so many customers if they did. That, and if it wasn't free then they wouldn't really attract new customers either.

[QUOTE=whatnow V2;19084983]there isn't CoD6 yet[/QUOTE] Modern Warfare 2 is refered to as Call of Duty 6 because it's easier to say.

This is Activisions craziness, right? Not IW??

[QUOTE=Tram;18405968]I am disappoint. Activision is killing gaming.[/QUOTE] because bohemia interactive studios, EA (well.....), Rockstar, THQ, Valve, Crytek and other devs all depend on activision.

[QUOTE=Pleather;19085072]This is Activisions craziness, right? Not IW??[/QUOTE] Yes, I'm pretty sure, I don't think IW has much to say about the marketing.

[QUOTE=Skelmech;19081661]Does this include MW2? because i was about to buy that :([/QUOTE] No, I think this only applies to future releases from Activision. Is there another CoD in the works? What more can they do to this franchise?

I've heard that this is about having to pay for playing certain online gamemodes, but I have no details or official confirmation, though it was a pretty reliable source.

[QUOTE=IAreJackass;19085264]No, I think this only applies to future releases from Activision.[/QUOTE] That's a relief for me. I'm thinking about getting MW2, but not if I have to pay Activision for playing online.

Now, if Valve made you pay a subscription for a Left4Dead MMO, you probably wouldn't moan as much.

[QUOTE=radioactive;19087402]Now, if Valve made you pay a subscription for a Left4Dead MMO, you probably wouldn't moan as much.[/QUOTE] Nice stating that as if it's a fact. I know that I, for one, would still care. Granted, I wouldn't care [I]as much[/I] because Valve has been very generous with the gaming community and deserve a little extra money.

[QUOTE=radioactive;19087402]Now, if Valve made you pay a subscription for a Left4Dead MMO, you probably wouldn't moan as much.[/QUOTE] Oh, we'll piss and moan alright. Remember the L4D2 Boycott? But of course, we'll still buy it when all is said and done.

Oh for fucks sake. I've wanted this game since it came out and now that it's almost christmas they start to fuck it up. What cunts.

Just during Christmas? Dedi's and modding were announced removed on the PC side like a week before it released.
