@Torinir I think this is the beginning of many changes to multiplayer PC gaming. Should be interesting to see how it evolvesabout 5 hours ago from Seesmic in reply to Torinir
@Torinir That doesn't make sense logically, since Kotick is in the business of making money from gamers.about 5 hours ago from Seesmic in reply to Torinir
@Torinir I agree. I love mods..one of my favorite games for the past couple years has been the HL2 mod "Insurgency" :)about 5 hours ago from Seesmic in reply to Torinir
@Torinir I think a bit of this is a reflection of the progression of multiplayer shooter design and as modders are hired by devs.about 5 hours ago from Seesmic in reply to Torinir
@Torinir A dev is obviously going to respond to what their community likes/wants, but I don't believe they "steal" most features from mods.about 6 hours ago from Seesmic in reply to Torinir
@Torinir I think modders can be inspiration, but they aren't "the source of ideas". There are a lot of smart/creative ppl at these studiosabout 6 hours ago from Seesmic in reply to Torinir
