What’s worse than not being able to play the exclusive maps of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 season pass? Getting called out for not having it in the first place.
Activision money grabs at any chance it gets, and your reaction is to tell them to get a job? How about use the money from the dots for everyone to have the season pass? Shaming people who enjoy your game is a quick way for them not too.
No. Or people can buy the pass. Is the game I have the most fun for years, so I hope they DONT go out of business. EPIC with fortnite can go out of business. EA can go out of business.
It's a psychological tactic. It will promote people with the pass to troll and make fun of others for not having it, making young and susceptible people (namely, the entire CoD demographic) more likely to try to spend money to get the pass.
I really don't see a point in getting the season pass for that price. There is nothing substantial added. I prefer real expansions like the old days. Like frozen wilds
I've generally only ever bought the season passes for the Black Ops line of COD games as they were the only ones I felt gave enough to Warrent with my love for the zombies mode at the time but am I fuck paying £40 with massively reduced content compared to previous years, that and I haven't really liked the direction Zombies has moved in.
They should of moved to what everyone else has done and gone the free route with the maps, stops map and player segration and keeps the dlc relevant. They even came out and said most of their revenue comes from the cancer that is MTs anyway.
Yeah, it just confirms my decision to not buy a season pass because i know there is hardly anyone around who can play those maps.
Work paid as a bonus one of the earlier version of COD because we played after work. That included the season pass, but when we connected on line, we found hardly anyone was playing these maps. We actually had to uninstall the season pass so we could join the normal players and actually find a game to join.
Because their fans are bunch douchebags who buy any shit Activision pulls out. Actually nobody should blame Activision, because they are fishing in the right place, People can always vote with their wallets to stop this type of practice.
I'm more shocked the people who made that piece of shit didn't mind being named and shamed in the credits. I was almost going to say "end credits" but....
I can't believe that they thought forcing people to buy a pass if they want ANY of the DLC was a good idea. Sure, you used to save a few bucks buying a pass as opposed to buying the packs separately, but I can more easily justify 15 dollars every other month than 50 at launch for content that isn't all available yet.
LOL Wow. That's actually worse than how they handled DLC in Destiny 1.
It shouldn't be humiliating for the player but it is obviously pointing them out to try and push them to waste their money. Activision is unbelievable. I really hope they go out of business.
Or......and this might sound crazy. But don't force people to buy a more expensive season pass and try releasing content as separate expansions.
Since when did Season Passes become a requirement to get any DLC? It used to be an option for people who knew they would still be playing the game by the end of the season so instead of buying the DLC separately as it released, they could buy it all up front for a discount.
But Destiny 2 just did this also. Forsaken has been awesome, but they also are forcing their players to buy the Season Pass in order to get any of the DLC content. I believe its $30. But I'm willing to bet if they released the content separately for like $10 or $15 then more people would buy it.
As if we needed any further examples, how greedy, underhanded, and devoid of any Integrity (or creativity) any of the developers, or Activision themselves are... wow 🦇🤑😈
Naming and shaming? No disrespect but people have serious insecurities if they think this is naming and shaming. Who gives a fuck if it has a warning symbol nxt to your name. Seriously I hate Activision and cod but if this shit is naming and shaming then the world has simply gone mad. I can seriously see a game crash with all this BS, cause people won't want to be associated with loonies (gamers) what a bunch of fucking cry babies gamers have become. I don't even use the word gamer anymore as I'm embarrassed to call myself one.
Great way to piss people off shaming them for not buying a season pass I hope this back fires and kills the franchise. I would have expected EA to do something like this glad I stopped playing COD.
makes it easier when in a party to see who hasnt got the map packs... we'll play with them for while then tell them we want to play the new maps please... all our freinds know this and are fine with it... I wouldnt expect mates who play with me be forced not to play the full game with all the added maps if I didnt have them...
still think companies should just charge extra and give everything all from the start, instead of all this money grabbing after purchase,,,
Or just don't charge extra artificially, how about that? Games do not need to go up to $70/$80 for the base game, the companies already get so much f-ing money to begin with.
Develop the game in full and fill it with plenty of content for $60 then MAYBE DLC would be a decent idea, but clearly Activision avoids this.
They should really stop selling maps and separating their user base ... Overwatch gives all maps and hero updates to all users. i know it's blizzard but still the same company and it's been successful enough
That sucks. I'm sorry you went through that. Live and learn! You don't like the game at all? I've just been waiting on a good sale on it. $30 is okay but I'm not in a rush.
What's so shameful about not having the Season Pass? I want to be able to buy certain map packs when I see one that I like and actually want to buy. More than likely, the map packs are just recycled old maps from other COD games anyways. And I don't play Zombies, so those maps are just a waste of money to me.
How do we get people to buy the season pass? Point at them, tell them to get a job.
Really hope they go out of business
Safe spaces should be optional for the warning signs.
Activision and EA need to die.
It isn't working well though. Most people in lobbies don't have the season pass, so it just highlights how few people actually bought it.
