@xg247 Call of Duty developers get a hard time with the mainstream press, mostly from your 'Big News Conglomerates' (i.e Fox News, NBC and the like - Oh, and the BBC/ITV in the UK), so it's also interesting to find out how the Call of Duty developers feel about the whole thing.

A friend worked there in production and was miserable due to working with IW and with ATVI. When he complained to his VP about it, he was told...be glad you have a job and are making games.
Sounds about right, but is also sounds like something Infinity Ward would say. They made their own bed and cashed in hard to do it. F em.
That sucks, but that’s corporate America. I mean, they could’ve turned down the money and leave to Respawn too. At least they got something, my corporation would’ve probably expected everyone to go back to normal.
