What we have with CA is a classic business study of how not to conduct business. Take a successful product line with a strong customer following. Release a new product with shoddy quality then refuse to address/recify the quality after customers complain. There are dozens of companies that followed this same pattern, adopted arrogance, then went under as their customer base fled. The once mighty Avalon Hill and SSI are prime examples.

Blaming Activision for the situation is ridicious. CA is the developer with the reputation on the line.
