COD: Infinite Warfare's not had a great launch. After the news that the included Modern Warfare Remastered game wouldn't work without the Infinite Warfare disc for those who had bought the physical copies of the double-game set, it was revealed that for some reason Activision was against cross-platform play. Xbox One and Windows Store players cannot play together and neither can Windows Store and Steam players.
The utter ridiculousness of the situation has just been highlighted in the news that one Windows Store gamer has managed to get a refund on his game. The reason? Because when he went to look for a Deathmatch game he discovered that very few other players were also currently online in the world. How many other players? One.
That's right. He was one of only two players in the world at that moment looking for an online match.
No matter what you think of Windows Store, you've got to admit that Activision's decision to disallow any sort of cross-platform or even cross-digital distribution interaction is not helping Infinite Warfare any - and this is the game that's been pretty much an unfavoured child to the series ever since the fans first saw its announcement trailer.
No wonder they wouldn't allow people to trade in the disc.
