The nonsense of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare already has consequences in the form of financial compensation

A multiplayer game without players or rather, with very few. How do you see it? That is the problem posed by one of the most anticipated games for the end of this 2016 such as Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, the long-awaited Activision title that deals with like every year to offer news that makes the franchise interesting.

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare is a cross-platform title available on PS4, Xbox One, Steam and the Windows 10 Store Activision launched one of the outstanding titles at the end of the year with the purpose of achieving an important player community... but nothing could be further from reality.In the end, everything has been a nonsense.

And it is that while from Microsoft they try to break borders with projects like Play Anywhere that we have already talked about here, it seems that other companies they choose to go in the opposite direction, in the case of Activision. But let's see calmly what has happened and what are the consequences. "

We are not going to ask for pears from the elm as they usually say and pretending today that we can play the same title under all platforms is a chimera. Yes friends, Cross Play is almost a utopia, a summer night&39;s dream But with decisions like Play Anywhere it seems that we are on the right track. And in those we are when they arrive from Activision and say stop."

From Activision they have covered themselves in glory

It is best to separate the platforms. What is that that players under Windows 10 and Steam can interact? Nothing of that, so Activision has decided to prevent users of the Windows 10 version from playing with those of the Steam version.No Crossplay. no Play Anywhere or anything like that

This movement has made the user community of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare on Windows 10 quite (and logically angry) after paying for a game that loses much of its main attraction A multiplayer title with fewer players than expected for which they have paid money and which is now weighed down.

These complaints have thus reached Microsoft, which, although it is not directly and responsible for this mess, has chosen to make a surprising decision and very successful of each with its users. To make up for the inconvenience, the absence of players, the servers practically empty, from Redmond have chosen to refund the money from the purchase of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare to users who purchased it from the Windows Store.

This way if they wish and once with the money back they can buy it for another platform, if they still trust at Activision.And it is necessary to emphasize that this was the one that should have stood up for its users at all times, in many cases faithful followers of the saga, who have thus been disappointed. For their part, Microsoft has generated an image of speed and immediacy in a decision that will surely have been liked by more than one.
