Petition 2 - To Infinity Ward


Recommended Posts

i have to LOL @ the petition like TW is going to listen like others have said 3 million + people bought the game ( not counting who downloaded the game :shifty: ) and only 200k and signed ? what's that tell you ?

oh and the graphic's are just fine so are the controls

pc gamers shouldn't feel lucky they got any game and they should demand quality just like any good gamer will. If it wasn't for PC users, COD wouldn't exist. Games like cod4, wow, total war, etc show that you can make alot of money on the pc very easily if you just make a quality game. All of these games show that if you make a quality game and respect your fanbase like all of those developers do, the PC community will reward you.

IMO the effect of any boycott of the PC product was diminished when people bought the game and then thought activision would change it after they already had their money..i say -_- to those people. Anybody with a brain knows that IW did all of this for money and to charge pc users for content from this point forward. It had nothing to do with piracy, an easy multiplayer experience or nothing, just simply them wanting more money and I'm proud to say they won't get any of mine.

Maybe they wouldn't exist, maybe they would. Regardless their consumer base has moved on to consoles they have more money, they are happy to pay through the nose for features we expect for free and they are as ignorant to any missing online features. Sure PC gamers maybe more loyal but if you compare 500k sales to 3 mil. Guess which the publishers like more?

Activision don't give a **** about quality any more, they don't care about games, they care about franchises. The people who cared about games at the top are long gone and replaced with scum from the music, food, marketing industry who are all about profit margins and casual gamers. This attitude appears to be slowly seeping down in to developers, look at 402 for example the dense prick has no idea who he's talking to and constantly has a condescending attitude like he's talking to his tween demographic. He isn't a gamer he came from the music/publishing industry and doesn't know how to communicate to gamers.

Will anything change in the future? Maybe when the casual gamers clue up and we go for another gaming crash of the 70's.

You can pirate games and add them to steam as 'non steam games' and I believe one of the pirated versions kept the steam component in-tact but I'm not aware of how that works with the online services thing. Point is people may boycott it and yet still download the pirated release and believe they are still boycotting it by not paying.

Non-Steam games will show up as "In non-Steam game' instead of "In-game." And I don't see people risk getting their Steam account banned for loading a cracked Steam DLL alongside the legit Steam DLL.

It is clear the reason why they shafted the PC so much is because they didn't want to expend the effort other than pretty much a straight port from the console. If they were too lazy to do it then, no amount of petitions would make them do it right now since clearly they don't value PC gamers.

I would sign it, if you didnt add all the extra crap. We just need the basics of multiplayer. not all the addons you're asking for.

How do you expect them to give us what we need for pc gaming, if you're making it pointless with the requests?

All of the features we're asking for with the exception of a little effort on their part are already coded into the game.

The listing is the feedback from the entire PC Community - it might not all effect you but it effects others. If you want something on the list the best way to get it is sign it takes 15 seconds. Worst case we get no where, best case we get somewhere and you get what you'd like.

Sorry, but I think this is stupid as well. If you didn't like the features, you shouldn't have bought the game. You can't buy a game and expect to make demands. They've already got your dollar, what do they care if you're angry?

I didn't and a lot of people who said they wouldn't didn't. However a lot of people did and they're releasing we were right. It's about one last fight and then if it fails moving on, for the effort of 15 seconds to sign the community who believes in this isn't asking a lot.

    • I think he means you haven't reviewed previous UFC games. Of course it doesn't matter... Every time you just report on something that involves the President even if just simply what happened you guys usually get accused of being anti-Trump. We live in fun times.
    • So how did you solve the problem? Disabling Secure Boot isn’t a solution.
    • Another devilish issue surrounding these certificates is what can happen with old, unsuspecting PCs that nevertheless have Secure Boot enabled. In my case, it was a Dell with a 3rd-gen Core chip (so about 13 years old). As of the last few weeks, it was suddenly BSOD'g within about 5 minutes of booting. Turns out it was because of MS's "Secure-Boot-Update" scheduled task, which is scheduled to run 5 minutes after login. It's explained in gory detail here (this is not my post, but it was where I found the answer), but the short version is that this legacy system would need fairly elaborate, manual certificate intervention since MS's automatic cert update method cannot work. How to do that is linked late in the thread. https://www.bleepingcomputer.c...od-caused-by-scheduled-task Secure Boot wasn't at all important for this particular PC, so I disabled it to be done with the problem.
    • Winhance 26.06.12 by Razvan Serea Winhance is an open-source Windows enhancement utility designed to help users debloat, optimize, and customize Windows 10 and 11. It provides a user-friendly interface for removing unwanted apps, legacy components, and optional features safely, giving you more control over your system. With Winhance, you can improve performance, reduce clutter, and enhance privacy without the need for a clean install. Beyond basic debloating, Winhance offers extensive optimization tools. Users can tweak power plans, adjust gaming and performance settings, control notifications, and manage Windows Update behavior. Privacy-focused settings allow you to limit telemetry and data collection, while system customization options let you personalize the taskbar, Start menu, Explorer, and Windows themes. Winhance also supports installing or removing software efficiently, including external apps via WinGet integration, streamlining both new setups and daily maintenance. New AI privacy groups have been added for Windows AI, Microsoft Edge AI, and Microsoft Office AI, giving users clearer control over AI-related telemetry and feature usage. In addition, new settings in Gaming & Performance introduce AI taskbar pin toggles, options to remove AI apps, and controls for AI services and scheduled tasks, allowing users to better manage how AI components run in the background and appear in the system. For advanced users and IT professionals, Winhance integrates WIMUtil, a tool for creating custom Windows installation ISOs with automated configuration. You can generate autounattend.xml files, inject drivers, and apply your chosen Winhance settings automatically during installation. Most changes are non-destructive and reversible, with clear explanations in the GUI. Whether you’re optimizing a single PC or managing multiple systems, Winhance delivers a faster, cleaner, and highly personalized Windows experience. The Winhance.Installer.exe includes both Installable and Portable versions during setup. Winhance supports both Windows 10 and Windows 11 64-bit versions.

Winhance 26.06.12 changelog: Features Builder Mode — build a Winhance config file or autounattend.xml without changing anything on the PC you're sitting at. Flip the new mode switcher to Builder, set everything the way you want it, and save the result as a Winhance config or an autounattend file ready for deployment on other machines. Sponsors & Supporters page — the exit donation dialog is gone. In its place, an in-app page (heart icon or the More menu) recognizes the businesses and individual supporters who keep Winhance free. It works offline and is fully localized. Change History — Winhance now keeps a receipt of everything it does. ChangeHistory.txt records every setting change (before and after values) and every app install or removal, with clear headers for config imports and bulk actions. Open it from the More menu. Hebrew language support — Winhance is now available in 29 languages. New Explorer customizations: desktop icon visibility toggles, This PC folder visibility, an icon cache size setting, and automatic thumbnail cache cleanup. New "All apps view" setting for the redesigned Windows 11 Start menu, and the Windows 11 system tray icons setting is now a dropdown with more control. App-local UI zoom — press Ctrl +/-/0 or use Ctrl+MouseWheel to scale the whole app, just like a browser. New External Apps: EA app, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, Rockstar Games Launcher, PowerShell, and Helium Browser. Bug Fixes Layouts no longer clip when the Windows text size slider is set above 100%. Accessibility: Narrator now announces setting names on toggles and dropdowns, previously unlabeled buttons are labeled, and progress updates are announced. Silent updates now respect your custom install location instead of reverting to the default. Cancel in Review Mode no longer clears your app selections. OneNote is now detected correctly for Win32 Click-to-Run installs. Clean Start Menu applies more reliably by also writing the group policy path. WinGet errors are no longer silent — error details now show in the terminal output. Fixed a startup crash on older Windows builds caused by a .NET runtime regression. Config import now converts power setting values correctly and no longer re-applies an already-active power plan. Improvements App icons load noticeably faster and cover almost everything now, including legacy capabilities and optional features — they come from a dedicated, checksum-validated icon repository and are fetched in parallel. Software & Apps polish: per-icon tooltips, extra table columns, an app sort dropdown, relocated search, and a cleaner compact view. A warning now appears when the Connected Devices Platform Service is set to Manual or Disabled, since some Windows features depend on it.
