Now it'll be like this:

Guy buys game,
Puts disk in console,
Selects multiplayer,
Selects TDM,
Gets 1 assist,
Primes,
Wins a game with 1 kill 10 deaths,
Gets Prime 100,
Sells game because the multiplayer was to short,
Smokes bath salts...

Becomes zombie,
Eats a guy's face,
Bites policeman,
Starts zombie apocolypse.

Dammit High Moon, you've doomed us all!

Agreed, this is an incredibly foolish move.

I wonder if the numbers have gone down quickly and they are trying to entice players to come back already. It's hard to tell when they took the counter out.

It would be different if they had multiple Primes to obtain but as it is, many of the players are going to play this weekend, hit Prime 100 and then move on to other new games coming out such as Borderlands 2.

I know what you're going to say, we don't need people like that, we have dedicated fans and we'll always be able to find a game! Well we still need that fodder, those people who fill out the games and make it entertaining.

Speaking of moving on to other games, I'm playing Starhawk now not FoC. The only thing keeping me playing FoC quite often is my place on a leaderboard.

Plus Starhawk has free map packs and no extremely high priced DLCs.

Yay! I just Primed yesterday (right before the whole Massive Fury ordeal) and now I'll be able to get myself back up to speed!

G1Vanguard · 09-14-2012, 03:59 PM

Yes! Can't wait! I stayed at level 25 on all classes for ages until yesterday when I decided to Prime, and the game has been hell for me without all my loadouts and upgrade choices. Hopefully now I'll get myself back up to 25 and rock CTF again!

2 hours until double XP launch!

I just can't believe they're dumb enough to do this, I get the appeal of keeping your customers happy by giving them more XP but not this early, especially when your game already grants far to much as it is.

Most gamers these days need a reason to keep playing, double XP only works when it helps you reach a goal, when everyone is already max level it's pointless, by the second double XP, there will be nobody excited because after one weekend they're through.

I'm getting Borderlands 2 on Tuesday and I'm buying their season pass for $30. You get access to FOUR full-sized campaign add-ons for as much as you get for three character packs in FoC.

Sweet. Now I can get those MP trophies without devoting all my time to them.
