    Enhanced Headphone Mode will be available to all players for free.

    $20 is for 5 years subscription of Personalized profile for EHM.

    If the personalized profile actually provide higher precision audio then yeah it is probably ‘worth it’ if Cod is the only game you play/or play competitively.

    After all a good pair of stereo headphone is more ‘pay to win’ and also cost way more.

      So dumb, just sell me the game, don’t nickel and dime parts of it.

      Want better graphics? Oh that’s 20 bucks a month for Nvidia optimized drivers??

        I am not defending Activision. The title made it sound like the whole audio system is locked behind paywall but it is actually just the personalized profile that is.

        Less shitty but still shit nonetheless. I can’t imagine it being worth paying and any improvement should be minimal. But hey I am sure there will be fanboys who swear the difference with and without is night and day.

        Yes it is dumb. We are now one step closer to pay to reload and I am glad I don’t play modern COD.
