    Like I said before, so many of them are just kids screaming for chocolate milk. Shame really, as it puts a stereotype on the few that are actually normal.

    Edit: 17,020 = Approximately £680,800 / $1,113,328 / €748,761 in 24 hours.
    thats alot of moneys :laugh:

    we will have the last laugh :laugh:

      For the console fanboys....

      If you have never played on a PC, and your multiplayer experience has only been delivered to you via matchmaking, then you will never really understand. But try to imagine a host hosting a game while never turning his console off, and you can always reach that room and play there whenever you want, night or day, because its always on. Now imagine that host has a Pentagon grade internet connection and his X360 can handle 64 players in that room. On top of that, the guy whos the host is actually resurrected Ghandi, so you will all be treated with respect, anyone using racial slurs, being offensive or just detrimental to gameplay experience via TKing or exploiting glitches, is going to be removed from that server forever.

      Now imagine dozens and dozens of custom maps running on that server, which you will get for free, because IWs not making them. Then imagine entire communities and forums built around that one room (server). You recognize people who visit that same room, you befriend them, you have fun with these familiar folks.

      The story goes on, and thats what were missing. All of it is gone.

            I would +rep if you were a forum member. I truly think that the console gamers who have never played PC gaming with dedicated servers who are saying we're just 'whining' have never truly experienced the greatness that is PC MP gaming with dedicated servers. I tried playing more console MP games lately b/c I wanted to be fair and just give it a shot...it's not the same. I miss the free custom content, I miss playing on a same server where I get to know the people, a server where I like their rules, a server where the asshats are kicked...console mp gaming is just not the same. And with consoles becoming more and more like PCs, I thought they would keep revolutionizing to the point of practically being PCs, but sadly, it looks like they may try to bring down PC MP gaming down to their level instead of rising up to the level of PC MP gaming.

                This response from DICE can't go viral fast enough.



                Dedicated servers FTW. What ever secures a better online experience is a given for us.
                reflect on that one IW!

                  To persuade CONSOLE players on why this is such a huge deal, this might help explain the whole point of modding to us:

                        But why would console players give a hoot about something they'll never get to experience?

                        The console players are already e-knighting for IW

                            Its incredible how those softhouse kill a entire franchise in a single phrase.

                            As I sayd for Medal of honor: Airborn: "This will not se emy money."
