On PC Black Ops II

[May 02, 2012, 09:53 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

PC Gamer grills Mark Lamia about Call of Duty: Black Ops II, asking the studio head at Treyarch about the just-revealed first-person shooter sequel, focusing on questions about the PC edition. This doesn't yield a lot of concrete answers, as he effectively dodges the question about dedicated servers, saying "we haven’t yet announced exactly what that setup is going to be." He does speak of how this uncertainty related to cheat prevention, and how their aggressive development cycle does not include time for beta testing, but also defers questions about LAN support, though he does speak of eSports support, which would obviously benefit from things like LAN support and dedicated servers.

Proof that gaming industry has become a business, all about making money and profits at the cost of skipping certain steps in the process--rushing out games, and thus we the gamers suffer because of.

It's also proof that CEOs/PMs are clueless about programming, and the overall value of a bug-free app.

If you don't have the budget to do a game good, then don't do it. Don't do a half-ass job, rush it out, lie/announce it as a full-done golden job, and have us the gamers/testers report bugs for you and have overall bad experience.

Ever heard the expression "Haste makes waste." ? You probably have, but you don't care, right? You POS companies.

Your first line/paragraph is the reason for what is outlined in your second & third line/paragraph. As long as the sheeple are happy with continuously forking out $60+ over, and over, and over, and over again for the SOS that has NO originality or creativity, then Activision will continue feeding the beast.

I predicted CoD would finally die off after BLOPs, but as you can see I was WAY OFF!
