They've reached to point  for me, that they have a last chance now.

Before WW was released there where all big words, Linux bins from =
beginning,
mod tools etc etc.
What did we get, no bins - almost 3 months waiting, 3 weeks was normal =
to
max waiting time per patch, mostly it was 1 to 2 weeks.

Besides that they shipped an alpha game, with a day 1 patch that made it
beta, and with the word on patch 1.2 of what JD said, still no cups and
leagues, no /record.

31th januari our 3 servers will go down surely.

Patch 1.2 rather be good, otherwise WW was my last Activision game =
(doesn't
matter to what studio Activision is the big name behind it).
Think lots of day 1 CoD fans will think the same on this, cause dropping =
pc
support almost isn't the issue now, in my eyes they did that already.

An interesting approach and I won't get involved in the politics of
this. Isn't there a fear the developer/publisher may just pull the plug
on supporting the PC in the future?

Just wondering ...
