    if a game company doesnt support me, then i dont support the game company.

    fomo is hard to get over at first, but after missing out and realizing its nbd you will realize that companies attempting to enforce behavior you disagree with will no longer be able to hold you hostage.

    Activision is Microsoft and Microsoft is just trying another route to force their control tech.

    So server side cheat prevention is out.

    I didn’t even known they were at 6 now… Just more of the same.

    I bet the only new feature is the “secure boot requirement”, which I don’t really think this worth $90 + a battle pass…

      The bug riddled bullshit they lauch with is never worth what they expect people to pay. I don’t even buy games anymore until they are 3-5 years old. By then it’s usually getting close to an acceptable finished product.
