Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 will not be including Nuketown multiplayer map for the UK. The only ones who will be able to access this map in the UK are the ones who put money down at the retailer GAME. This announcement, of course, came at the last second for players planning on getting this game. Players who cancel their pre-orders from other retailers to switch to GAME may not get CoD: Black Ops 3 on launch day.
If there is one thing that really irritates me is when game companies make exclusive content for certain game systems, stores, or regions. I know it’s a marketing strategy, but it still hurts. It’s like a punishment to players for not doing what the companies want you to do.
Now I don’t play CoD, though I would like to. I feel bad for those people who learned about this last second. It’s a slap in the face and it isn’t right. I think gamers everywhere deserve to have the same content that other gamers get to have no matter the region, the stores, or the system they play. If there is a special deal for pre-ordered games, I think that is fine. People who dare pre-order a game deserve some sort of special gift. But I don’t think players should be punished for not choosing the “right” pre-order outlet.
I’m interested in what the rest of you have to say. Agree or disagree with what I have said – I’d really like to know.
