Surerly it's obsolete for future CoD expansions?

XP is no longer supported, nor is Vista from MSFT.

Yes, we know there are a world of XP users still out there, but the priority should be on the later systems. Most users of COD are upgrading their systems daily to accomodate the improvements in COD.

Even the kiddies are emptying their piggy banks for new video cards.

There may be considerable demographics not in N.A. or Europe that are COD clients and critical to it's success. We tend to measure everything by our own standards without consideration for the rest of the world. I'm sure that if it wasn't important to the sim the devs would have dropped integration with the older platforms.

+1 (being a smartass: note that MS still have extended support for some customers until 2014. But mainstream support was retired in 2009)

So why in the world do 1C say they will support a retired OS?
And why in the world do they want to support an API from 2002 that was superseded in 2006 already (DXv.9)?

Who the h€ll made that decision? IDIOT!!!


EDIT: Just checked and 19,5% of Steam users got XP32/64. Like someone said in another forum "2001 called and wanted it's OS back".

EDIT 2: Close to 5% of steam users run macs so I demand that 1C port CloD to mac os x ASAP or...I'll fart in their general directions!!!

Why would someone kiss their cow?

How could anyone eat squid and call it delicacy, when it is fish bait?

The answer likes in the irrationality of mankind.

Right!!

Edit: However the other way around (eating a cow and kissing a squid) is perfectly normal.
