TL;DR
You can only get season pass at launch via special editions (season pass to be sold on god-knows-when later date), and the major dlcs can be purchased only through seasonpass.

GG, Activision. You guys have out-did yourselves once again. Enjoy all those sale decline

Well, there was the whole "attaching the Modern Warfare remaster to Infinite Warfare super deluxe addition" thing. Infinite Warfare wasn't a bad game, but the fact they made you buy IW to get the MW remaster was shitty as hell.

Hopefully activision is literally just the publisher with no hold on the IP at all. That will probably limit the amount of crap they can pull.

Hmm. What if CoD threw a party, and nobody came...

I don't think we're there, yet. There seem to be some fans who will put up with just about anything from their beloved franchise. But any small stumble in the sales figures might be a step in the right direction; it seems like the only way the brass at the top learns anything.

Chances are that?s not the case. Why the hell wouldn?t they just stick with Bamco, or even another PS4 exclusive would be better. It seemed like Demon's Souls and Bloodborne still had the best quality control during production anyways.

Actually, even if some people actually did refuse to buy BO4, they could still run a pretty decent peofit since they saved money from the singleplayer. Like a lot of money . Those VAs, Actors, etc... dont come cheap

Activision have reached cartoon villain level.
Having people choose between not buying any DLC, or the whole set is cartoon villain level? Sounds like a pretty garbage cartoon.
