(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Something people don't really think about when saying "just release an update and fix it" well it is genera that simple but to release an update they have to pay $40,000 for it to go on XBOX Live, and (unknown) amount for PSN.

So basicly when you have to wait for a patch blame MS and maybe SONY (depending if the charge or not, no one knows) because they charge to release the updates this is the same thing that prevents indie games from being patched and fixed cause they carn't afford it.

Can't afford? LMFAO This Activision we are talking about here....
Treyarch will most likely make a big patch when the DLC comes out.

Can you please post this source where it says that Microsoft charge $10,000 for the update to go on Xbox live?

Microsoft's patches are $40,000, not $10,000. But ya it's probably more of an issue for indie developers then it is for Activision anyways. And it's probably why they use hot fixes more then actual patches all the time too.

The following user groaned Stone for this awful post:

Source please?

Also being able to afford something doesn't mean you WANT to pay. Companies are about profit and the more extra money they have to spend could cost someone their job in a layoff.
