Kotick Wants Call of Duty Subscriptions "Tomorrow"

[Sjakie]

YAY for marketing douchebags!
Best idea Kotick had, EVER. It will either make him more then filthy rich then he is allready or cost Activision a bundle.
'audiences are clamoring for it', WHAHAHAHAA, what a load of cock.

i can understand what he is saying, but its its going to be paid month and what not the disk single player and online better be released for 20-30 bucks and dlc maps and modes better come free. Then something like that would be acceptable, cause i would buy the game for 30 bucks and spend my 30 bucks saved to pay it. But the 30 bucks better get plenty of hours. and by plenty i mean at least 60 hours.

So paying for the Valhalla that is multiplayer mode. I don't think this will go down well, you can't just change the rules in the middle of the game.

way to give the crown to the competition heh Kotick?

 

[Coranico]

Does he honestly think this is a good move?
A vast majority of players will not want to pay to play what they have been recieving for free for some time now. This means that these people who buy the game for the multiplayer will no longer buy the game.
The few left who will buy the game are those who buy it purely for single player, and those who are willing to pay the fee.
The only game they willl continue to make a profit on would be MW2 as there is no way they can lose money on it now.
Black Ops? $5 profit at the most.

Very bad idea.

Not that I have a current gen console but the one thing that would get me a bit closer is if someone hacked together a private server for psn or xbox live. I don't like the idea of being limited to someone's walled garden that will go away as soon at it is no longer profitable to run.

I want to be able to play my games multiplayer 10 years from now if I want to, and don't want that choice made for me by a bunch of suits poring over a spreadsheet figuring out how to make the quarterly earnings report better.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Infinity Ward create Call of Duty? and didn't the CEO's of Infinity ward leave Activision (and Kotick) and press for a lawsuit after people attempted to fire them?

So shouldn't Call of Duty be in the hands of Infinity Ward (now Respawn Entertainment I believe)not Kotick? meaning he has no right to do this?

Or does Activision and Kotick have rights to CoD Modern Warfare 2 but no other in which case if Respawn Entertainment made Modern Warfare 3 (Or indeed when they make their next CoD game) with free online play Kotick would be royaly screwed?

^^ I read most of the details of Infinity war and Respawn Entertainment on the internet/forum so it may not be reliable however still gives hope.

 

[dfphetteplace]

Why pay for a game, then have to pay every month to continue playing it? Bullshit.

 

[afaceforradio]

This can't go well.
This will loose them a lot of players.

Not only that it will severely limit the number of new players who wont be willing to just 'try it out' for a price.

uhhh Activision (i.e. Kotick) owns Call of Duty now, but I think there was debate about whether or not Infinity Ward still owns Modern Warfare
hopefully...that way Respawn might still be able to make MW3

 

[qbanknight]

Oh really Kotick? Fuck off, you get none of my money, who's laughing now you piece-a-shit?

 

[Lucifron]

So he's stopped being honest about his purely capitalist inclinations and has instead begun to lie about his intentions.

"audiences are clamoring for it."

Yeah. Color me unimpressed.

 

[Cody211282]

I'm so glad I never bought MW2

Well even if they don't there is nothing stopping Respawn making a different franchise with a different name but still based on modern warfare so it's not like Kotick is going to have this to easy.

But yeah it should go the way of Respawn seeing as they made the franchise in the first place and all Kotick has done is take it from them.

The producers for the Battlefield and Medal of Honor franchises are fapping frantically with this news.
