The problem isn't in the complaining, because all the complaints are
justified: promises broken, one after the other... should we simply stand by
and pat them on the back and say 'it's ok'?
farrrk that!
We pay a premium price for game releases these days, and in doing so should
get a premium product, not one that limits your MP experience to a users
home connection as the proposed IWnet bullshit does.
What moron at IW sat there and said 'Hey, I think the PC community needs
this (IW net)'
Interviews and balls of steel aside... IW needs a bullet!

I'm wondering if this is IW's reaction to a lot complaining about late
Linux binaries, lack of support, etc. I've been concerned about all the
complaining because sometimes a developer will just go "Forget this, too
much hassle, not worth all the complaining to income ratio" and simply
focus on console only and/or drop said community entirely. I've seen
developers forums such down due to too much complaining (see Raven
Software). I understand that we pay for a product and want the best
support possible, but all jeers and no cheers may turn the developer off
from our communities.
