What is this? Activision NOT being evil?
|
I remember reading about them shutting this down.
It's cool that the game is given a green light to continue, but from all the other stuff I've read about Activision I think it will be rather hard for them to change their public image 
|
I don't know if Activision is trying to become nicer, or they just received enough hate mail regarding the shut down that they figure it will still be profitable.

The only reason any corporation does anything is for money. there is no 'nice' in the business world

Maybe they realized that long-term that strategy of ruining gaming is not profitable?

Guess some companies just value (or realise the value of) goodwill more.

Its profitable- look at all the shit they pulled with sc2, yet they will make millions anyway. gamers are too hard core, and too addicted to not buy the next new game.

the only value of good will, is the PR that it might get you- so you can make more money.

Exactly, it means you can't continue, thus why I asked for you to continue.

i don' t know how you haven't realized how fallacious that statement is... but until you can come up with counter points to the above stated, the burden of proof is on your shoulders not mine...

Wow, thank you so freaking much for posting this. I am so excited! I was crushed when Activision pulled their little redlight stunt on this game.
SO EXCITED! THANKS MOTBOB!

That's enough of a list to warrant the phrase "Look at all the shit they did"
