No Free Fall DLC map for Call of Duty: Ghosts on Wii U at launch (if ever)

A new advert has revealed that the preorder Free Fall DLC map for Call of Duty: Ghosts won't be coming to the Wii U. Vooks contacted Activision to confirm and they have confirmed the map won't be there at launch 'a chance that it will become available at a later stage'.

I know how we will generate sells for the WiiU versions of our games, we will treat them like nothing titles that mean nothing to the company. Then when they don't sell well we will say it's because of lackluster WiiU sales as oppose to the crappy way we handled our IP on the WiiU.

I don't own a WiiU and this is something that really irks me for the people who do own the console.

i bought blops2 on my wii u and the same thing happened .
i already decided that i wouldn't buy this title cause i expected it to happen again guess i was right

The worst aspect of this news is that there are people in this world that still buy CoD games. What is wrong with you people?

ape0073846d ago (Edited 3846d ago )

um we care about gameplay

internet nerds seem to forget about the first thing in gaming.......GAMEPLAY

KrisButtar3846d ago

My friends and I all by COD because of local multiplayer. What other FPS has 4 player split screen

Mikefizzled3846d ago

I haven't bought one since Black Ops 1 but I can promise it will have the same fluid and inviting gameplay which is usually the reason why people buy it over Battlefield. They have opinions and to suggest they have something wrong with them for enjoying gaming then you sir are the one with something wrong.

I switched my pre-order to PS4 from WiiU. These are the types of things that are going to kill sales of certain games on the WiiU, so it is almost the fault of the devs themselves for not including it and shooting themselves in the foot.

My PS4 is going to need a game at launch, glad to see COD runs at a higher resolution on PS4 than Xbox!

lilbroRx3846d ago

Your first statement and second statement do not correlate.

If you were looking for the best version of the game then you would be getting it on the PC instead of any console.

Announcing how you favor the PS4 instead of other system for petty reasons just makes you look like a Sony fanboy trying to boast about his preferred console.

MNGamer-N3846d ago

Your right, I'm just an *sshole and my opinions and experiences don't count. I guess I'll just go hang my head in shame and sit in the corner then.

"Later stage"... Just say never to get this over with Activision.

JackieCruise693846d ago

Oh great. Activision, Ubisoft, and WB are all looking like HUGE assholes to me right now.
They give the Wii u shitty ports of their games and then bitch and whine when sales suck worse than they need to. This is why I HATE third party developers.
I'm getting to the point where I'm just gonna rent 3rd party multi-plat titles.

Mikefizzled3846d ago

Surely thats the worst thing you could do in a situation like this. Renting the game as apposed to showing that there is a real market for the game on the platform?

JackieCruise693846d ago

So what, you're saying is, I should buy their shit ports and show them that this is alright? It's alright that they're giving me half assed ports, taking away features, and refusing to give me DLC that the other platforms are receiving? No.
I'm not payig full price for a game that doesn't have everything it should. Either way the Wii U gets fucked and I'm sure these devs know it.

Ol_G3846d ago

no don't ever give them the impression we want butchered versions of their games

Another L for Xbox, when are they going to have good news?

MrDead1d 18h ago

I would read the article but the giant pop-ups from the top and bottom of the screen made me close it.

Without reading $23.4 million isn't a deterrent for a company that size.

peppeaccardo1d 17h ago

Boss: Let's fire a few people to recoup on that loss.
Slave: Cortana has decided to get rid of Arkane Austin and Tango Gameworks.
Boss: Let's get those Firing Letters "Copilot Approved" and send them through the power of the cloud.
Slave: Long Live Phil !!!
ALL in the room: LONG LIVE PHIL !!!!

Look, to be honest the FTC should just stop.

MS has A/B and nothing has really changed yet...if you are worried about 5-10 years from now...just drop it cause the future is unpredictable.

Take this week's news, that 4 Xbox exclusive are going Multiplatform.
