It’s pretty obvious that the console version of this game will be a big hit, and it’s also becoming increasingly obvious that Activision already realise this by somewhat appearing to boycott the PC version.
A number of petitions have surfaced (including one 180, 000-strong against infinity wards lack of dedicated server support in the game) against some pretty odd choices made by the developers concerning multiplayer. The main issue in my opinion is the fact the game doesn’t use dedicated servers like we see on the more popular pc games such as Team Fortress 2, Counter Strike, and Call of Duty 4.
Instead people are now getting the impression that the game will be using a system not dissimilar to how Xbox Live handles multiplayer and PC gamers will not be able to choose the best servers on location and ping.
I guess only time will tell if this issue will be rectified or whether it’s actually a good idea anyway, perhaps to reduce hacks etc? who knows.
