Meanwhile Activision sold 5 million copies or so of MW2 on the first day....

PS : and the above poster is right, by bitching everytime there is a change on a PC game, all you will get is less and less hyped games released on the PC...

If those games are gonna be the pile of shit that MW2 is then I'll be glad if they don't make it to the market period.

 

@people hwo say pirates are themajrity

I had a discussion with someone about this and he got owned pretty hard, don't even bother.

Lol and you are the industry expert on this I guess..

The only reliable data we have on this is the latest Stardock game that was released without needing a customer key to connect to the developers servers for online play.

Stardocks themselves ( which is a studio that is huge against DRM and only develops for PC) said that what they saw is that 80% of the players on the servers were using pirated versions of the software.......

He's actually referring to me - And I got "owned pretty hard" because he didn't fully read anything I wrote, ignored statistics, links, and developer quotes, and pretty much blocked his ears and yelled "LALALA NO PIRACY ANYWHERE LALALA."

I remember reading a similar article to that stardock game - where a company had 200,000 more people playing the game on their servers than they had copies sold.

Fortunately, industry experts (like Vlad) are here to assure us that piracy is not a big problem, and none of your fancy "numbers" are going to change that.
