Marvin 1296 Posted February 18, 2013 It's designed to be a console game...Yes, and that's fine, but how hard would it be to port a game to the PC and reach a large market in the process? Not only is it good for us, but it would bring them more money at the same time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only PC game on steam that comes close is Dota2. Nearest shooter is behind that by over 100k.

Until I can make annie explode and have entrails scatter the turrets and inhibitors, LoL is still a MOBA and is exempt from all comparison. What bungieman is saying holds true: more people are playing FPS games with controllers instead of KB/Mouse 1 2 Lvl. 100 Latias, Gerald and Name reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be perfectly fair, considering that console figure is only ps3, bungieman has a pointI'm pretty sure there's more PC Blackops players than both consoles combined and if console has more, its probably due to.the fact that consoles are cheaper than a gaming PC, not a mouse vs a controller.Having played Call of Duty on both consoles, its usually around 300k but it probably died down.quickly after release.

Why does the digital delivery service of steam matter at all in this situation?

Let me restate my original point:It's designed to be a console game...The quote still claims that nobody wants to play a shooter game on the PC anymore, which is ridiculous.To which you replied that Black Ops 2 had more PS3 players. A valid point. But not one that disproves mine.There is still an audience for shooter players on the PC, and a large enough one to make a profit off of, as evidenced by games like CS:GO and, as you said, Planetside 2. Hell, CS:S is still popular given its age, and the fact that Bungie is ignoring that audience is disappointing.So go ahead, ad hominem more. It doesn't make you any more right.
