Honestly speaking, Activision will look at the petition and start laughing. They know people will continue to buy the product they offer.

Now I know some people are and will be discouraged from buying the product but that's where the new $10 higher price comes in.

PC gamers can not dream of shunning activision blizzard, they own the market and will continue to own it. As long as Call of Duty franchise world of warcraft and starcraft exist.

Negative, sir.

 

 You have to understand, that this is not the case for the CoD or FPS PC gaming community. Not having a dedicated server equate not having a reason to play, at least on PC. It is true that they will still sell millions to 360 and ps3 owners and do not need the PC gamers, and that is fine. It is their choice, to tell PC gamers to basically screw off. But among PC gamers, this is not going to lose some business, it will lose most business.

 Its easy for someone who isnt a PC FPS gamer to write this off, but I honestly doubt a double-digit percentage of the folk who bought CoD 4 on PC , bought it for the single player.

 Luckily Activision doesnt own the market, thankfully there are plenty of AAA FPS titles available on PC. EA\DICE has already confirmed continuing dedicated server support for example. FPS players who need a new game will either take another look at WaW or chill until the next BF game.
