Copy+Paste too hard, mkay

If atleast half of your user base puts it to use, thats still alot of people to screw over with removeing it.

Battle Royale rumours, MP being not CoD MP rumours.... this isn't sounding great.

The reason i didn't buy FF15 was because SquEnix were trying to 'update' their gameplay to match other popular titles, more action style. If CoD is doing the same, just copying trends and fads instead of keeping their style then that's not why I like the game, so I won't be getting it.

Why don't game companies know that what people like about game series is that games gameplay style, not another games?

it will sell the same nonetheless.

I do not have much faith in people choice.

That's the problem with this franchise ... delay is not an option.  

as someone who has bought the game every year, played single player. dabbled in multiplayer and then return to beat the campaign on veteran, and if I liked it enough I would buy it for my other console and play through it again. Welp, not anymore.

Lack Ops IIII will be the first year I do not by it at all, even on sale.

The sad thing is, if Battlefield wanted to get rid of single player campaign, i wouldnt even care... but CoD, they can eat a bag of dicks.

1. That 50.4% finished the first mission so they didnt just press start on it.

2. Most single player games average like 30% completetion and since CoD is multiplayer focus and has 222% completetion thats actually not bad. Also WW2 has a total of 25m players so a little bit more than 12.5m played the campaign and 5.5m finished it. Thats a large number to make the campaign worth it. Most single player only games dont even reach 5.5 or 12.5m in sales.

3. For Bo4 they already started the campaign but stopped it because they did not have enough time to finish it.

I got ghosts on the cheap second hand and played for a week and sold it, same with WW2 except it took almost a month.

BO3 was great, played that game throughout the year. Advanced warfare was good for 2 months until all the issues became known and I couldn't stand playing it anymore. And I completely skipped and didn't buy Infinite Warfare, but from what I've seen of it it was terrible. 

At this point I can tell whether I'd like a COD or not without playing it. 

1. Cool, 50% people followed an AI soldier and watched a few cutscenes. Great!

2. 22% is less than 30% by quite a lot. Especially since COD campaigns are short.

3. They should have never continued it and should go all out on multiplayer. They probably didn't even get halfway through and realize campaigns are worthless for COD.

Yep, perhaps they don't know their Roman numerals. IIII is not a number, it's just four lines...
