The OW2 backlash was "you re-released a game with almost no changes for a bunch of money and you want us to just.. buy it?"
Although to be fair I guess that's what CoD does every year. Hmm.
But Blizzard has been spending its goodwill for years. Ever since, I think, ever WoW expansion was worse and more pay-to-win than the last.
- danaris 4y agoDo they brick all previous iterations of CoD whenever they put out a new one? My understanding is that they shut down the OW1 servers after OW2 came out...
- pests 4y agoA day before OW2 came out!
- goosedragons 4y agoNo they don't. They aren't even shutting down the free to play CoD: Warzone 1 when 2.0 releases. I can still play CoD games I bought on PS3, online. But somehow OW1 had to go.
- streblo 4y ago> "you re-released a game with almost no changes for a bunch of money and you want us to just.. buy it?" Except it's free to play
- ajkjk 4y agoOh yeah true. But i think everyone felt they were just being screwed with though.
- belval 4y agoSomeone who didn't pay for OW1 might have no ground to complain, but in my case I paid for OW1 which now doesn't exist and I am left with OW2 which locks away any kind of progression unless I pay. It's a bait and switch and the community is rightfully angry. If they wanted to make a f2p OW they could've released OW2 as a standalone, except they knew no one would have migrated so instead they killed the old one.
- gwill 4y agoheroes used to be released and everyone would get them. now there's a pay/play a LOT to unlock mechanic. same goes to cosmetics.
