Im not really sure how this is much different than people watching it in a movie or doing it in the GTA games. Apparently some people are getting their feathers in a ruffle. Its vile, Ill agree but if you dont like it dont buy it!

I still cant wait for it!!!

Of course parents will go out and let their parents play it with a M rating

I'm far more concerned with the fact that this game no longer supports dedicated servers on the PC side. All MP games will be hosted on client side, meaning on someones computer with a broadband connection, so goodluck with anything more than a 8 on 8 match and even that is probably pushing it. Not to mention the guy hosting who has a 0 or near 0 ping having a clear advantage. This is about as direct as a console port as you can get. No more familiar 24/7 servers that you know will be there at any time of day or night with people playing on them. I pre-ordered this game the day it showed up on steam but have since cancelled it. I may purchase it again sometime after it's release if I read favorable user reviews of how the new match-making system works.

Actually isnt 'dedicated servers' what they are going with?

This is why there is a petition to stop the dedicated servers so peeps can run their own with mods etc....

Absolutly not, there is NO dedicated servers the system will work like xbox live. The games will be hosted on someones computer who's actually playing (listen server)

The petition is to ADD dedicated servers, not stop them.

Source? That's worse than I thought, I figured they would matchmake and host...something like WoW.
