Thanks for the clarification Luthier. I -for one- will of course buy the game on day one but I have to admit that I am a bit disappointed that the game will be crippled like this. I recently invested in a HD6850 that I actually couldn't afford in the hope that I would get a good gameplay experience just for CoD. Of course I play other PC games too but I specifically upgraded for CoD, this sucks so hard....
