Has anyone else noticed how COD just keeps getting more money hungry as every game comes out, even though they are making billions off the games alone? For example: Back in COD4 the only thing you could buy for an in-game add-on was a map pack. Time progresses a little and in BO2 you can buy like 20 different camos for your guns, extra class slots, special titles, special guns and more.
Now with the upcoming release of AW, the pre-order packages have special armor, helmets, primary and secondary weapons, camos, titles, supply drops and more that you can buy. I wonder what other kind of stuff COD is going to charge money for, and I hope it does not get to the point where you need to buy things to remain legitimate competition.
What do you guys think? Will it ever stop??

They are not money hungry they're adapting to today's marketing, You say COD4 Had no Micro-Transactions but back in '07 micro-transactions weren't a thing. But games such as CS:GO, Dead Space, TF2 And others with Micro-DLC flourish and all the money people are willing to spend on knives and hats or other related prducts goes back into games to help dev's fix it. Look @ COD4 there was 1 title update throughout the entirety of it's life cycle and it had no Micro-DLC.... Black Ops 2 has had 15+ TU's in 1 1/2 years and it had tons of purchasable camos and you shouldn't be angry if they want to release a Tiger camo and playercard for 2.99 because YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY IT!

Don't jump to conclusions, I'm not angry. I buy tons of camos and such, I'm just making an observation bro...don't get your panties in a bunch.

Anyone who says they're just money hungry is just wrong lol, its just todays marketing. If people are willing to buy the stuff why wouldn't they put it out? It also helps keep the longevity of the game, new stuff makes you want to keep playing. I can get where you're coming from, but everyones doing micro-transactions in todays markets.
