Remij 4,745 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Just now, jehurey said: they will buy it on the platform in which they're COD buddies are playing it on. Because if you're playing CoD continuously into 2024, its because you have friends in which you are playing the game with. And none of those people on their friends list, almost none of them, will be on an Xbox. I think you might've overlooked that. If Microsoft had just GIVEN AWAY 50 million Xbox Series X consoles over the course of 3-4 years.............it would've only cost them $25 billion. Imagine if Phil Spencer is still planning something and thinking to himself "............I got one more trick up my sleeve to save GamePass!!!!" Nah, that's irrelevant. COD is cross-play and cross progression. It literally doesn't matter to these new generations man. They play on what they have first and foremost.. and if not that, then what's cheapest. These are people who haven't bought into anything Sony has been selling for PS5 thus far.... I don't think they care as much about the difference between the consoles as you think. They just care if they can play COD on it or not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But you would end up buying the one that has more compatibility with everything, if the prices were the same. They're not idiots, it doesn't take more than 20 seconds of thinking. -This plays Xbox and multiplats -This plays Playstation games and multiplats........oh, and I'm finding out that Xbox games are also coming to it. AND all my friends have this one Remember, if you said that they are still playing a PS4 well into 2024, then they will make a choice base on what is best to play LONG-TERM.

Sure some of them will... and some might just think... hey.. Xbox now owns COD, Diablo, Overwatch, Fallout, Elder Scrolls... and I can play them all on Gamepass... and play with my friends on PS consoles.... I'll just go with that. These people don't care as much as you think they do. The console is a means to an end for them... to play one or two single games.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jehurey 3,299 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 This is going to be an incoming train wreck. Lemmings are now converting into GameFly customers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Remij 4,745 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 What if it's a cheaper COD only tier for $7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It would be over $10 by itself, and they would give you some free skins and stupid shit like that, every month. Like I said, you're basically just a digital GameFly customer, at that point.

I could see them doing some shit like that. If you think about it.. their goal would ideally be to have people subscribe for their own first party games and not rely on 3rd party deals at all. Imagine some shit like an "Activision package", "Bethesda package", and "MS Studios package" and you could create a bundle you wanted or some shit? lmfao I think they might try something like that when the ultimate tier becomes too costly that nobody buys it.

jehurey 3,299 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 If there's people out there thinking "I Loaded up on THREE YEARS of Game Pass Ultimate, I'm set!" They will simply call it "COD Pass", or "Activision Pass" and that will be their workaround so that the guy who already has Ultimate will still have to pay money if they want to play CoD. I can absolutely see a scenario in which they start introducing weird categories to have different gamePass bundles. Its going to look like a bad webpage for a cable TV new subscription list of bundle options. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
