You guys are bunch of bitches. Its a god damn game.
You really like the idea that they can screw with us all they want and still make money with a shit product? I'm mostly a console gamer, but I love and enjoy the fact on the pc I can go and play any game type I want on any map with alot of people. Instead on the console version I need to build up a friends list to play (most of them play Halo) the gametypes I want, or wait a fuckload million years on match making to play my favorite map. (which I haven't encountered it for the past 3 days on MW1 ) So yeah fuck this decision.
Also its going to get them in the ass when the game gets a more popular IWnet-less version that has a custom server browser of some sort, and at the end it will probably be a warez release.
But am I complaining that a game is not going have certain features that id like? No.
I fail to understand why so many people are deeming the protesters, PC gamers in particular, to be immature simply because they want a higher quality product. What if Bungie had decided to remove matchmaking from Halo 3? People will always complain when they're getting an inferior product.
Lemme put it in a simple analogy that I think fits the issue. Dedicated servers are to PC gaming what community forums are to websites.
There is no good reason for Infinity Ward to remove dedicated servers (which is a standard) from arguably the most anticipated game of the year other than to force PC players to conform to the standards of the console and get charged for DLC. The whole thing smacks of money grubbing, which is interesting because they're alienating a sizable portion of their fanbase and potentially losing millions (which, granted, pales in comparison to the massive onslaught of sales they'll get from console gamers).
No matter how you look at it though, the move is a swift and powerful kick in the nuts to the core fanbase that made Infinity Ward into the company it is today.
