Remember how MJ realistically reacts when a person swings with Spider-Man in Far from Home? Perhaps you’ll get the same feeling when you dive in here.
I could swear Xbox bought ABK.
I really wish they would communicate when…you know, some of those games finally are coming. It’s just silly at this point.
Obviously CoD, but not only that, there’s THPS, there’s Crash Bandicoot, there’s BC games like Prototype, and so on.
Did anyone ask one of the team about it? It felt like it was gloss over it due to studio closure and multiplatform.
Sometimes it really does feel like patience isn’t a virtue anymore

It is almost like purchasing and integrating the world’s largest game publisher is a complex process that doesn’t just happen overnight.

I don’t think anyone did no, unfortunately.
I would say we’ve been quite patient. We’ve had all kinds of plausible reasons posted here and there why it was taking longer than usual, so I guess we’re gonna do that again.
I don’t expect them to drop all CoD games on there in one month, but something, anything? Why has only Diablo 4 been added? Why not the older ones? Why none of the Crash games? I’m just saying, whatever the reason truly is, communication on the matter would go a long way.
Thats good, because from what I’ve been told, CoDs aren’t all going to happen at once.
I don’t know, I don’t think they owe anyone anything. They are juggling global legal issues, licensing and streaming rights, games that don’t have windows store versions, the list goes on. None of it matters until they can actually deliver something to you. Until then, who cares. We aren’t the ones who paid for it., and will be the ones to reap the benefits when the content does come.
And if you want to know how in the weeds the licensing stuff can get, for a CoD game it goes as far as ensuring that the tire tread on the fictional in game tires doesn’t resemble the tread patterns of real world tires.

I have so many games on my list that I am personally not bothered by when ABK games hit Game Pass. I think my interest in it is primarily for less important ‘business’ reasons.

They have millions of other things to worry about than putting Activision games on Game pass right now. I would love that too, but if we’re talking about Activision games themselves, they have to try to get a window store version and that takes time to Port that and try to integrate blizzard stuff primarily battle.net so yeah it’s going to take a good while we have other things to worry about than Activision games
Its so vastly different than the MS Rewards program, where if its down for even 15 minutes you see all sorts of posts asking about it.

Yep, no dice. The status page doesn’t acknowledge any problems though.

Ok, I saw green checks across the board and thought I was the only one having issues.

Okay, who do I have to blame today? Was it The First Descendants when they realize it’s not censored (to my knowledge)? Was it FFXIV DawnTrail? Who!
I’m trying to get back into Dawntrail. 
Bought the expac on Xbox this time instead of PC.
