Fuck Call of Duty, clearly, but just because something bad is happening to other people – people with terrible taste in games – it doesn’t mean we can just ignore it.
Activision have been waiting to wring more cash out of their loyal customer base with this new nefarious scheme but we’d kind of hoped it was just some sort of horrible joke. It’s not, Actingthecuntivision are really going to do this.
They plan to launch an online service called Call of Duty Elite to coincide with Modern Warfare 3. The hateful publishing pricks plan to charge a monthly subscription fee for the service, which will provide extra content that isn’t offered on game discs sold in stores, including downloadable map packs. So, like DLC but more expensive. Way to split your customers, Kotick. The price hasn’t been confirmed but somewhere in the region of $8 a month is expected. Plus, a little bit in the terms and conditions giving Activision full rights to your soul.
So if you’re a Call of Duty fan, just know that Activision hate you. You’re just a wallet to them. Yearly sequels and overpriced map packs were one thing but this is another. We hope you make a statement and boycott the fucking game. Battlefield 3 is apparently going to be better anyway. At least until EA pull the same shit on us. Rich
