I think 90% is overly optimistic, if you dropped the zero it might be closer. A HUGE portion of players have no interest in frequenting boards or doing anything outside of the game itself. The Codz community is truly something unique & I'm sure quite a few people here are the info source for their respective groups/friends & likely without them would not know how to do the more hidden elements of the game. (Margwa Hat what?!) The challenge you have is reaching the unheard masses who dont frequent said boards, the tiny % of players that is represented by reddit etc has to be so vociferous but in the end it may not be enough as only your wallet matters here unfortunately! The youtubers carrying a lot more weight these days but still in the grand scheme of thinks far from reaching anywhere close to 90%. Have a little check of the below, while these aren't 100% accurate it gives you an idea of the numbers we are talking about & fully appreciate a lot of those people wont even play online. While I'm not disagreeing with your sentiment in regards to the COD points/RNG issue, if you want to effect change you should see what numbers you are working with. I'm sure ATVI work with the philosophy if the majority aren't complaining that means they are happy which we know is not the case, more often then not the majority are just too lazy or not effected enough to want to do anything about it (that's me) :)

realization is good and I would agree with you but getting enough to act in way that can initiate change is a whole other story

I wish you every success in your boycott, my fear is your audience of people who will act/speak will be too small, with that being said there is only one way to get their attention and that is with your wallet.

I agree as that was in my final load out for the successful attempt, i feel like it almost trivialized it compared to when i did not do enough damage to him previously, especially the third phase, I'm fairly certain i didn't use an entire clip but my memory escapes me there... On a side note on my successful attempt (again i could be imagining here) but it seemed my Ragnarok charged a lot faster & no idea how, as this time i stopped killing any skeletons and just kited them. I had fireworks on my drakon, does that help charge them faster?

apologies for the ignorance but can you clarify why Killing time should be taken, i have yet to make it to phase 3 so am soaking up as many tips as possible. I have yet to go in with danger closest and that will be my attempt later today.

While you are probably right, you could argue that releasing blops1 BC would benefit them as their old DLC is still original price and therefore could be a nice little cash cow as I think a lot would want at least the rezzurection map pack. But now with horror as I type this, I now have that daunting feeling it wont be released until after PS4 get DLC 4 so that as you say they can keep the focus on the current blops while still being able to generate a surge in revenue with the release of BC & the associated map packs after the normal game cycle. Youd have to imagine ATVI would want it out prior to the next COD release however. I hope im wildly & completely wrong as I have been saving Shangri-La for the occasion. Played a bit of Nacht last night & keen to play it all again but on one console.

thx for the reply & I did presume this to be one pathway, effectively when we all die their reality dies with them & not a continuous world. Haha one day we will get origins done! The reason I ask is because in BO1 - 2 we can assume that once we die the zombies simply turn their attention elswhere on the search for more humans. In bo3 with our new entities it is giving quite the headspin. However now i think about it, even though i dont have the map, there are keepers in Der Eisendrache & this would be a continuous world unlike our SOE crew. Ill tell you where im coming from, after begrudgingly watching heroes reborn it only clicked weeks after as they had a similar emphasis on 'save the children'. Im now wondering if the children that need to be saved are sam and eddie on the basis that as far as i know they are the only 2 humans so far to have been inside the MPD and as a result may have some additional powers that even they are yet to discover. They have potentially been sent back in time as children, so that they, the last hope against the destruction of the universes can be hidden from those wanting the ultimate apocalypse. At least until the right time reveals itself. for the children to save the world.

Hello codz! I tend to lurk more than anything on these boards while reading some of your phenomenal stories & dissections of lore & wanted to ask a question that may have no concrete answer ( the story of our lives!) What happens when our protagonists die in soe? specifically where do our enemies focus there attention? During the map we are met with an onslaught of zombies, margwas, meatballs, apothicans, those flying things... but what happens when we are not there for their attention, would they fight each other in our absence, would they join hands and sing kum ba yah around a smoldering, is there some unknown that can potentially control both?

Im not sure entirely how it would work with this game but in most IP cases, the digital property is never yours, even after you bought it! Glad that you got sorted as it was a glitch but flying off the handle claiming robbery is a little dramatic :) Saying that when you spend money on something you are entitled to it as advertised.

Yes, was nice log in and see all the fuss, will definitely log in for a game later, i think even the gobblegums look like they have added sparkle.

am intrigued to find out myself... but i know the answer will not be the one i want!

Welcome! I believe i tried to add you the other day but attempting to put your steam ID into xbox isnt going to get me far! see you around :)

I dont think hes the one making a fool of himself here ....

While I am in agreement that it is highly unlikely, as well as the fact that it shouldn't have such a time window, I am certainly not closed off to the fact that gobblegum could be part of this or any future EE purely on the basis that it is accessible to everyone over time. Although Dr Monty does use RNG, there are a limited amount of combos but more relevant to this, in plain sight is a first tier already unlocked gobblegum that everyone would have access to straight away. As I say, I agree with the other points but I wouldn't rule out gobblegums use in the future.

Cheers, TLAlex, very hyped for this. I doubt I will ever return to the PC so custom zombies is a no go & the more maps I have at my disposal the better! Cunambula, I will certainly do so as my last experience of Moon was not leaving the starting area because noone wants to teleport together, someone dies, game over lol :)

1 - Is there an official date? Or any confirmation of December? (Sorry cant see the video currently) the only reason I ask is because I'm thinking this wont happen until 2016 Q1 & I remember coming across a UK site that indicated January. 2 - In terms of how backward compatibility would work, I'm presuming the discs were no longer needed as the original implementation or concept was working around detecting if you had the game & downloading you a digital copy. As someone who never played all bo1 maps and as recent as a few months ago invested in all of the DLC while waiting for Bo3 to be released this is news has me very stoked! cant wait! I may finally have people to finish start moon with!

I think the dialogue was between tank & Nikolai or Takeo?? Something along the lines of believing they were enemies at which point the dialogue you have put here is given in response, i was wondering wether it was suggestion 3 different world wars ie: 1, 2,3 or that they had maybe lived/fought through a particular war multiple times...

Cheers for this, will be reading in its entirety on my journey home after work as i get ready to re visit the giant :)

NabrZ, this weekend man this weekend!

Excellent! Is there a way for me to delete my current group/post? Last thing I want to do is have 3 entries from myself all next to each other.
