Demand Activision to Stop Creating Pay-to-Win Games and Return to Classic Gaming Style
Demand Activision to Stop Creating Pay-to-Win Games and Return to Classic Gaming Style
The Issue
I have been an avid player of Call of Duty since its inception. Over the years, I've watched as a beloved franchise has slowly morphed into a money-grabbing machine, eroding the essence of my childhood memories with each new release. The developers seem to have lost touch with their community, neglecting the needs and wants of their loyal player base in pursuit of profit.
Activision's recent games are riddled with purchasable content that provides in-game advantages, undermining fair competition and turning our favorite pastime into a pay-to-win model. This is not what gaming should be about. It's time for Activision to revert back to its old style - three perks, one or two gun attachments, no battle pass or purchasable content that gives players an unfair advantage.
Moreover, skill-based matchmaking needs reform. The current system often matches less experienced players against seasoned veterans leading to unbalanced gameplay (source: numerous user complaints). We demand a return to the old matchmaking system where skill was rewarded rather than penalized.
Lastly, we call for balanced weaponry in games. The presence of overpowered weapons reduces diversity in gameplay as players gravitate towards these select few options (source: game data analysis).
We're not asking for much - just for Activision to listen and act upon its community's concerns instead of prioritizing profits over player satisfaction. Please sign this petition if you believe in fair play and want Activision games like Call Of Duty to regain their former glory.
