Is Activision Digging Their Own Grave?

From HDWarriors.com:

Will people continue to support Activision in the same numbers as in the past? Has Activision jumped the gun with this sudden bout of (at least perceived) arrogance? Will gamers really stop and think for a moment whether or not they really NEED another Modern Warfare, Guitar Hero, or Tony Hawk? Anger tends to cause people to consider other options. And there are many games to be released both this year and next that are competing for wallet-share.

I have not bought an Activision game since Modern Warefare. That was 2 years ago.

chaosatom6136d ago

They are lucky to have Infinity Ward.

Otherwise, people would see that they are now just milking franchises.

Dandiego6136d ago

I thought about it and if there isn't another Modern Warfare game I'm playing my SNES. I have a PS3, Wii and Xbox 360 and I don't play anything else than COD4 (short periods on other games but not too long)... and I'm getting over it now since we are 2 years in and there was only 1 map pack. That WAW game got 3 and I'm pissed but I'll still buy MW2 day 1 and prestige pack.

The Matrix6136d ago

No need to dig there own grave I'll dig it for them.

TruthbeTold6136d ago

Is it worth it?

Are we going to start paying extra for Zelda games too just because they can probably charge what they want? What about Madden if EA starts acting offensively condescending? The cost of pride is relative to the individual, but sometimes a statement needs to be made in order to put people in check.

cmrbe6135d ago

as well as crapcom. EA on the otherhand i already have 3 EA games.

mate just change the pic to a picture of the activision logo burning, or surrounded by nazi, KKK, binladen, the devil or masonic symbols u know so it fits.

TruthbeTold6136d ago

That would have been just a tad harsh.

xztence6136d ago

These idiots need to be treated like sh!t, people need to boycott their ass for all I care. Bad Company 2 >>>>> Modern Sh!tfare 2 anyway.

Saaking6136d ago

Unfortunately, CODMW 2 will cell a LOT regardless of price because there's a lot of people who only play COD. I will be buying it used. I'm tired of Actvision's comments, attitude, and especially Kotick. That guy's face gets on my nerves...

Saaking6136d ago

The bots will buy MW 2 even if it's $100. They like paying a lot for low quality stuff.

MW3 shouldn’t leave Modern Warfare 2’s overlooked playlist behind

Modern Warfare 3 is set to be one of the biggest COD games yet features-wise, but it shouldn't leave out one of the best MW2 game modes in the rear view mirror.

Modern Warfare 2 Adds Pay-to-Win Items With Thermal Scope and Merlin the Dog, Here's How They Work

Some alleged Modern Warfare 2 pay-to-win elements were recently added, see what they are here and how they work.

PunksOnN4G1019d ago

The DOG is legit Broken if ur hiding in a room or grass he turns his head even if ur behind a closed door he turns his head and barks letting them know where u at thats PAY TO WIN!!!!!

LucasRuinedChildhood1019d ago

I hope all the assholes who buy these get stuck in lobbies with each other. I skipped new COD games for a long time and a short time with MW2 convinced me to go back to on a hiatus.

With the skill-based matchmaking (engagement-based would be more accurate), I imagine this will make the game even more miserable for most players when the matchmaking has decided it's time for a tough lobby.

I played the OG MW2 recently on the Series X and it's disheartening how much more fun it is. I don't even care about the balance issues anymore. lol

PunksOnN4G1018d ago

My friends dont play with me anymore i am former pro player and i even streamed on MLG for RX gaming the team i played for... My KD is always high 5-6kd my friends who i went to school with are not good wht so ever so with SBMM kicking in its always putting us in TOP TIER lobbys and they cant hang now they dont even tell me when they getting on LOL

ManMarmalade1018d ago

I recently started playing OG MW2 again and I'm having a blast. Feels like I'm in high school again.

fr0sty1018d ago (Edited 1018d ago )

Welcome to COD under MS. It's all downhill from here, they're going to be looking to make that $68B back as fast as possible, at any expense to the player.

StarkR3ality1018d ago

The deal hasn't even closed yet you pleb. CoD has been doing stuff like this since the loot boxes in WWII.

Nice try though pal.

TheColbertinator1017d ago

Activision has never needed Microsoft or anybody for that matter to act like greedy bastards

PunksOnN4G1018d ago

why did my 2nd comment about SBMM get downvited LOL?? Do we have people who Enjoy trash SBMM tbh make sense it caters to LOW KD players and u will never get better playing with the same trahs everyday LOL

andy851018d ago

Probably gonna see more of this BS once the deal is fully done..Gotta recoup that 70B.

Jin_Sakai1018d ago (Edited 1018d ago )

Look at Minecraft. The game hasn’t went anywhere since Microsoft bought them. No 4K, no 120fps, no graphics pack, and no Ray Tracing. Just some new biomes, mobs, and more skins as usual.

Same could be said about Rare. Who knows what will happen to Activision once they’re under Microsoft’s roof. We can all take a good guess though.

PunksOnN4G1018d ago

TBH they did update it by accident then they pulled the update down on xsx and xss i remeber the XSX version having ray tracing but the S did not. Then after people seen that it was updated it was removed that same day

peppeaccardo1018d ago

No way !!! Nobody wouild think they would monetize on items that weak asses will use to get advantage during multiplayer action !!! I would never think they would do that ... I mean is a free to play game after all ! /S
Wait once M$ will put their greasy hands all over Activizion and you will see what awaits the "lucky" ones who will play this slot machine of a game. Sooooo Lame !

jznrpg1018d ago

They way it works is you give them money and more money and more money.

anast1018d ago

It's a true phenomenon that people haven't figured this out yet.
