I have no problem with them wanting to charge some money for online play, but they are going about it all wrong.
They need to make their online play account based. Like PC games. You get a "cdkey" with the purchase, it's good once. After that, if someone else wants to use the same cdkey, they can charge the $10. Then the cdkeys tied to the new account.
Not releasing parts of the game to download while you play is stupid in so many ways, i'm not exactly sure why they are going to extremes when it's not needed.
Oh ya, because they are ran by corporations, not gamers.
