One of the key things that have kept the company’s products consistently brilliant was the low employee turn-over. Now that the two heads of the studio have been dismissed and one of the key community facing employees [Robert Bowling, pictured above] is rumored to have left the company, how many more people will leave and how will that affect the quality of the games Infinity Ward is famed for creating?Full article here (http://www.dailyinformer.net/2010/03/06/infinity-ward-scandal-dlc-most-definitely-under-conflict-product-quality-to-suffer/)
As I said just a rumor for now has not been confirmed.
Rudedog: It should be noted that the above source does not name any of it's sources for Rob Bowlings departure and only states, that this is a rumor. However it's a fact that fourzerotwo's twitter account has been inactive since the firing for Jason and Vince (the past 5 days). - Also removed the picture from this post solely because of front page formatting.

My blood boils when I see his face tbh.

I think this might be a load of tosh as he has tweeted that there should be DLC details this week a few minutes ago.

Was fun while it latest.

[rudedog]

Yep was just coming in here to post the info about his tweet. I would assume they told EVERYBODY to stop all communications until they talk to the new guy in charge.

The DLC is rumoured to contain 5 maps. They are porting over overgrown and crash from cod4 and there are three new ones.

[rudedog]

It will be interesting to see, how they handle the PC DLC and will they charge for it.

I am betting they will be charging for it. If they do, I think it will finish killing off the online play on PC. God what a let down this game was, so many of us were really looking forward to it, and it would have been epic.

As much I as truly believe it was all IW's fault regarding the dedicated servers and PC support but I would like to, one day find out the whole true story.

and ask who is responsible, Why?

Completely turning your back on an entire community had to come from the very top.

My opinion is MW2 is getting played a lot now, but I do not believe it will last for two years like the other CoD titles have.

Here is one customer that will not buy anything IW unless it has Dedi's.

You realize they want you to play 365 days and no more. And then buy the next CoD title. The games are designed with this model in mind.

Curious, if the PC does have to pay for it, how would they protect it from public distro? Key? Steam? Or no protection at all?

Interesting!

Steam of course - i would bet it will not be free.
