Not sure if any of you have seen this-

I (like the majority of Call of Duty Black Op's PS3 gamers) have been experiencing a huge number of connection problems for the past 3 month of release of this game. I've been in dialog with Activision with respect to the problems associated with this game, and following the call of duty forums (PS3 forums are filled to the max daily on complaints with connection problems with the multi-player of this game). I've posed some questions with respect to what Activision and Treyarch are going to do to keep the loyalty of the PS3 gamers to the Call of Duty titles due to the consistent problems PS3 users have been having and reporting to Treyarch since release. Activision offered the following and startling response:

Well I have nothing else to offer and I too follow forums and have many friends who play and enjoy the game for all of its features. As an avid gamer, I would also disagree with any legalities involving a single aspect of a game as online experience may change at any time. The publishers have the right to shut down the servers for their game at any time as well which based on the number of reported posts from users may be a viable solution over the free PSN.

In any event, if you would like to send your game disc into us, we can either;

a) Exchange for a sealed (unopened) copy of the game that you can take back to the retailer
b) Swap for another platform
c) Exchange for another Activision title of equal or lesser value.

These are the options that we are able to offer to you as a one time courtesy.


Let us know how you would like to proceed.

They never fail to amuse me this lot, whether its true or not.

Out of principle, do they have a title of greater value?
 
They will not pull the servers. They cant.

The PS3 servers are a joke, I was on the other night and it took about an hour for me to actually get to the end of a game! all the others had connection issues......its very frustrating.

The end of the day they knew they could just throw this game out and people would buy it regardless of ANY issues. Every gaming forum has pages and pages of gamers complaining about COD BOps on the PS3 network but the game is still flying off the shelves and I don't see activision doing anything about it due to PSN being free. Xbox live apparently does not have the same issues......so there attitude will probably be "its free for you PS3 gamers so don't complain".

This issue will never be resolved imo
 
Yeeek! Stop with the knee-jerk!

I don't see any threat to pull BlOps from PSN there. The mod was just reinforcing that the online experience is not guaranteed.
 
shutting down servers, or giving exchanges because they cant be bothered to fix the problem isnt going to do treyarch or activision any good tbh.

Most of the console owning morons that buy Call of Duty games would still buy them, no matter how much Activision screws them over or raises the price.
