Online is back up

A little funny I picked up. Don't know how many of you have followed the angry internet men complaining about how the PC is basically getting shafted a fair bit by IW/Activision. Here's one of the memberlists of a boycott group setup on Steam:

[mr.pure]

I don't get what the whole thing is about.

[DasBill]

They're all on COD when they're boycotting it.

Showin yer age a little there P! Cover up fella

[mr.pure]

No, not that bit.
Why are they boycotting MW2 in the first place ?
And who exactly ?

[DasBill]

Cos, as i understand it, PC has no dedicated servers so people have to host from their own, which suck.
And i presume Activision and Infinity ward have servers for 360 or PS3 but not PC, and have no intention of having for PC.
So the boycott is against the game and developers/publishers

[mr.pure]

What a bunch of wankers.
I hate this kind of thing.
A firm makes a decent game that gets a following then they think any old lazy shit will do from then on.
Still fuming about an 8 hour game time.

[DasBill]

Yup its all about moolah. Its bound to happen, but a game's gonna be bad in at least 1 area anyway.

[Big J]

Least you've had your 8 hours. I said to my flatmate I'm gonna pick it up tomorrow, he went quiet then admitted he bought it for my birthday, so by the time I get back from Oz I'll no get to play it until the middle of December. Least I've got the GTA games to keep me amused.

I might be just too n00b but those new maps (MW2) feels way too complicated. I know that it's only a matter of learning them but maybe I'm getting old too.

[mr.pure]

[/probably]

[ez-1]

I should use word experienced instead of old.

[DasBill]

Vintage!

[ez-1]

Even better.
