JMHO. In the end I think it is about game sales. If 1C/Ubi wants to maximize revenue, it will make sure CoD allows for the use of Freetrak devices or risk losing market share. I would not expect 1C to answer officially in this thread because that would probably not make NaturalPoint happy and they do business with them. TrakIR is the industry standard and logically, CoD has to support it. In the meantime, they make NaturalPoint happy during the release run up by providing advertising in their promotional videos for CoD. But that makes no difference to me since I am a Freetrak user and spendthrift, I will simply wait to buy CoD when I have assurance from the community that the game supports Freetrak. In the meantime, I'm happy to keep playing good ol' IL-2. But given the history that there was this encrypted interface with Black Shark, then there was a "fix" and also that Eagle Dynamics was going to do their own thing, then didn't at NP request? It all seems very scripted to me. Also, I see nothing in the system requirements for CoD that says, if you use TrackIR it has to be a newer model so you can get the new version of the software that works with the encrypted interface. I guess the wait could be prolonged in the DRM? Then I look at my mouse. It is a Logitech mouse not a microsoft mouse and I am using windows software/drivers. Ok, I guess I'm really not worried about it now. Going to bed.
