Trust me mate, there will be cracked servers, AFAIK there has been no DRM that pirates haven't cracked, should be easy.

Signed a few times, probably wont make a difference. 402 said on the cast "Don't freak out till you've tried it, if you've tried it and still don't like it, let us know"

Yeah thats right pay good money to find out what we already know!!! 402 we DON'T LIKE IT NOW!!!
I listened to the whole thing and its absolute bollocks. You said I was fucked up for wanting to see it, but EVERY IW staff member can line up and get headshotted in super super slow motion and I DO really really want to see that.

lol, +1.

I've signed the petition as #10358! :)

If it is as everyone is saying, and IW don't change their mind, then I honestly don't know what path the website should take. Perhaps we should move into jumping in ALL games generally (I've considered this in the past, but decided against it for the meanwhile as it would be an enormous task) - it's starting to look as though I may be forced to do so.

I don't doubt that the community/website can still run with MW2 as a part of it, but with so many key members of the community not buying the game (including pretty much all of the CJ Team), I don't know how the jumps would be integrated into the site other than just links and links to YouTube videos in an unorganised manner.

I just signed it and when I checked my signature on the list (which was 3 seconds after I signed it), there were 10 more signatures after my name :lol:.

double post.

Was gonna post earlier but forgot...
The news spread so quickly that even 4chan decided it was worthy a raid. Apparently they posted porn and generally spammed the fuck out of threads (there was a thread title "I FUCKED 402's MUM", which was a mild amusement).

Eventually the 150 page thread (my last count, but apparently 400) for the petition had to be deleted.

tbh, I don't blame 402.

Don't shoot the messenger. Start shooting at Vince Zampella (Studio head) and Jason West (cco), they are the ones who are responsible for this shit.

I think that all this is pretty pointless since the game is coming out in 3 weeks. How the fuck should they put dedicated servers in when the CDs are already burnt onto the disks? With a patch?

If this is is pointless, then IW simply doesn't care that they have now lost potentially 15k customers (number of people who have signed the petition as of now). let's do some quick math. 15k*$60 (price of MW2 where I am) = $900,000. they have just lost nearly one million dollars. I don't know about you, but if I lost one million dollars, I would care.

What I REALLY dont understand is why the fuck they woukld take them out in the first place...why not just leave them in? What P[OSSIBLE advantages do people who play on PC's (who generally have a good enough deal of computer knowledge to know these things) get from no dedi's?

No cracked servers, so less piracy.
