Kotick Wants Call of Duty Subscriptions "Tomorrow"
- Thread starter Tom Goldman
- Start date
Crossfire, Planet Side(killed by SoE, not declining interest; same as SWG), Huxley(still in beta, ijji is taking their sweet dam time), Blackshot(NA version killed by the devs after trying to shaft the NA publishers; RIP), and *shudders* Combat Arms. All are or were very popular MMOFPSs that I named off the top of my head, for the PC.Tom Goldman said:
That's the wonderful thing about the internet, you can be vague and say something that doesn't mean much of anything, because no one ever fact checks any more. You could also say "Experts" "Scientists" "A Recent Study" or any number of interchangeable words, you're still talking out of your ass.Tom Goldman said:

This would be the final straw for me. I was disappointed with Modern Warfare 2, disappointed with World At War, and there is no way in hell I'm paying a subscription fee just to play Call of Duty. I'll gladly play Modern Warfare 1, when the series was actually GOOD. Or even Bad Company 2 or Medal of Honor.
Wait, you mean soon ill have to PAY to play the mother of all generic war games? About fucking time! I always thought the one thing missing from COD was an extortion perk.
Yeah, new content every month (weapons, solo missions, maps), better statistics, faster patches, tournaments with REAL prizes, or anything else that makes an MMORPG worth the $15/month.Notsomuch said:
Ok, bettin' time: $5 (online money, redeemable for a brief moment of feeling smugly superior) say that we'd get nothing of the sort, and would still have to pay for map packs.
No thanks, I'm already paying 60? every 12-months for my live subscription.
Remember when Call of Duty: modern warfare was announced as the best selling media franchize in the WORLD? Remember when people paid 1200 MP's for some rehashed maps from CoD4? There's gonna be more than enough people to pay Bobby Nodick the fees he wants.
Capitalism is a religion and Kotick is it's prophet.

What you meant to say, the intelligent fanbase is dwindling, thanks to the removal of dedicated servers. Lets face it, people buy it for PC to avoid the internet scum that plague the console versions, along with . So, on top of the lack of dedicated servers, the few true fans left will throw in the towel if there was a subscription added, who's honestly going to pay for something where you simply get abused for playing? And the company doesn't care about your platform because it doesn't make them trillions on the first day.Johnny Cain said:

Bobby Kotick: We are Introducing Subscription Fees for Call of Duty.
DICE: We are releasing a FREE DLC for Bad Company 2 setting the game in Vietnam!
This has got to be one of the most high-scale 'Fuck You!' moments in gaming history

Pitty i have been looking forward to CoD: Black Ops because Treyarchs Call of Duty's are way better. If they go with this i definatly won't be getting it though.
