    They are smoking unfiltered crack at activision-blizzard. Just don’t play them. Or pirate. Not like they are a very wonderful company to their own employees.

      In fact, it’s actually better to pirate them and use Plutonium for Multiplayer. This is due to the fact that many pre-Infinite Warfare Call of Duty titles have unpatched RCE vulnerabilities that Activision never bothered to fix, but have been in Plutonium.
