Windows Store and Steam Versions of CoD Aren’t Compatible!?

It seems that every few months we find a new an interesting way to screw with the larger gaming community, and once again, it seems it’s focused around the Windows Store, giving us flashbacks of the lunacy of GFWL days. With Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare heading to the Windows Store, gamers are no doubt going to want to play these games online, however, it seems that PC gamers on Windows Store copies can’t play other PC gamers if they have the Steam version. That’s right, no cross-platform play, despite the fact that both are on PC… lunacy.

This begs the question “why bloody bother with two versions for one format?” and honestly, I have no answer to it.

The solution to this is simple, do not buy the Windows Store version at all, Steam is the way to go and have a much larger user base, otherwise you could find yourself being the lone warrior in some pretty empty servers.

Windows Store, go home, you’re drunk.
