nib95 said:There are times where I'll decide to play SP over MP, and from what I've played of the BF3 BETA, it wasn't exactly such a spectacular effort that I could justify the notion that all development quality was being injected in to the MP alone, though I do appreciate it was only a Beta. As a consumer I want more value for money and part of that involves getting a more whole gaming package. I think if more gamers felt like this, instead of being apologists that don't even bat an eye lid to a sub standard or average campaign, we might actually put more pressure on devs to deliver a better experience in both MP and SP.
No this is how things are. Increased consumer awareness does not bode well for devs like DICE, who specialize in one thing and then have to put resources into something they are not good at, just because fanboys can't buy an MP focused game without some sort of campaign, when the competition has one. It's a shitty situation, and pouring even more effort and resources into this nonsense will just drive all non god-level, 1st party assisted devs to oblivion.
Some crazy folk would probably like that vision.
