"I would love to see us have an online Call of Duty world. I think our players would just have so much of a more compelling experience."
All he wants is a world of warcraft, call of duty style.

anyone remember the song "die motha fucka, die motha fucka, die"? thats starting to kick in now.
I think what is funniest is that COD doest use dedicated servers, so their online should have efectivly no upkeep costs compared to something like battlefield, yet they think its justified to charge a monthly fee, what the fuck would it pay for that isnt pittence compared to the gargantuin profit marjin from the overpriced game, recycled map packs and rediculous sales.
Bad company gave its map packs away for free, and new game modes, thats me oficially never playing cod again from now, anyone want a ps3 copy....

I've been predicting this for years, and I'm no genius.
I hope and pray that should he implement this new pricing scheme, it fails.
Then the rest of the industry will see the line in the sand.
Because heaven help me if this scam succeeds...

Yes, but Bungie should be strong enough to cope with them. Hopefully Bungie has the integrity to create some actually balanced and fun games, not a pile of money, shit, and explosions.Mcface said:
And yet he'll still make millions of dollars. Thankfully I'm a PC gamer, and PC gamers have made it pretty clear that they don't want any of activision's shit.
Honestly, though. Activision is buying up so many of the biggest developers that I can guarantee they're working on their very own console. "If you want to play CoD or whatever the hell Bungie is making next, you're going to have to buy our console and pay 50 dollars a month to play online!"
And still, millions of fans will flock to gamestop, should it still exist due to publishers finding sneaky ways to discourage used game sales, eager to pick up their very own Activision Cashbox and Modern Warfare 3 (retailing for $100)

Call of duty was hanging by a hair in my current love hate relationship with it and if this goes through I'll be throwing it in the trash and washing my hands of it. Onto better games like BF BC2 or Halo.

OT: ROFLOLOLOL Finally my friends will stop playing this and play something cool like castle crashers with me!
Ok, MMORPG's NEED subscriptions in order to keep developing content and keep servers up etc etc.
...Why would a very popular shooter game with an optional multiplayer mode be in need of a subscription fee? Y-you aren't making Azeroth or anything guys, sure you might release some new weapon or something but thats what downloadable content is for. Subscription fee's with this kind of a game only end in tears...

It would be.... If the FPS has continues content updates, servers actually hosted by the company (Most used 3rd party hosts i.e Valve, or the player hosts (-_-) i.e MW2) and finally if they had to store millions(billions) of character info (yes I know MW has unlocks, but even then they're more Off/On switches (or Local, I dunno)ionveau said:
So yeah.....
