(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); In my continuing crusade against the injustice of buying a game for £50 and experiencing a bad multiplayer experience lag, frame rate ussues, crashes, and more I called Activision.

They tried to put me through to an 0845 number for customer service but I said have you got a press department as i am going to organize a protest and I am representing the views of many.

I got through to a very helpful woman who was the UK PR Manager and explained what was happening in the game and the fact youtube, and multiple forums INCULDING the official COD MW3 forums are literally buzzing with unhappy ps3 gamers experiencing difficulty with lets face it a premium priced game!

She said she is actually going to do something and said that if there really is a community of people that need information about what they are doing to fix it she will help. She is going to go to Activision USA and go to SONY and find out what is being done. She is calling me back with the information. She sounded genuinely concerned and like she was going to do something.

SO bookmark this thread and I will post what happens...

I am taking a stand if nothing happens and will organize a facebook petition and gather 100 gamers together and have a fun day marching on and presenting it to Activision in the UK whilst calling local press =]

***First Email***

I removed her name and contact details out of respect and im not sure your meant to share things like that.

Hi Rich



Further to our discussion earlier, I just wanted to let you know that I have been trying to get some further information for you and I will be back to you as soon as I have any feedback.



Hope you have a good weekend in the meantime.



Best wishes

We're watching you
Seriously??? Over a little bit of lag, dude you are going off the deep end. After they fix the problems after a few updates your gonna be like "Omg my 200 phone calls and 30 pointless threads did something Smile" nope thats just how COD works. If its that big of a deal where you need petitions and stuff over a game, seriously just sell it, I mean c'mon your gonna die from a heart attack from COD lol :dumb:

Well someone has to do something because clearly the 1000's of people posting on forums moaning saying i wish they would fix this isnt working. How will things ever change if the people do not stand up. Posting on the internet is easy to ignore but when real people take real action it is hard to ignore. Also it feels good to go on a crusade you should try it the next time you feel an injustice.

Also its not a bit of lag it is me spending £50 thats like $75 on something that is not playable because I am hosting.

So I am paying for a good internet connection so others can game well? then I am paying for the game too?

As did i, As did everyone else, you can't say you never had this problem on black ops when it came out last year. Terrible matchmaking servers etc, It will die down soon.
