Yeah, that still doesn't prove people who actually and truly like COD buy the games for its singleplayer campaign. They care more about multiplayer, zombies and now Blackout. The people who actually care about a singleplayer campaign are probably less than 5% of the playerbase. That's not enough to be considered.

And your point is... ? Everyone who is playing the game thinks it's great. 

You just said EVERYONE? Yeah ok thats why some people are trading it in at gamestop after 1-2 days

Sure bro ... sm0k w33d 3v3rday

It's obvious COD is more of a multiplayer focused game .. has been for a long time. But that doesn't mean less than 5% (unsubstantiated number) cares. 

That's why I said "probably" and I'm pretty certain it is around that figure anyway. I play the new call of duty every year, I'm an active member of the COD subreddits and discords, so I like to think I actually know the playerbase. But you go ahead and believe what you want to believe.

Aren't you the guy who kept sighing in the COMG thread whenever you saw COD doing good? Yeah, keep doing what you're doing.

I could say the word "everyone" can be used as a generalization on the internet but would that really matter? You're gonna hate the game no matter what anyone say to you.

Honestly not surprised at this point how people enter a positive COD thread only to downplay a game they haven't personally played. Pretty pathetic.

But its multiplayer focused, and if Im not mistaken, you need to have internet connection to play them.

Wait wait ...

You think you know a playerbase because .... you hang around hardcore subreddits that 99% of players don't read or care about, and that only hardcore members of the community (which are obviously going to skew towards multiplayer fans since that has more replay value than the COD campaigns) care about ... and you think you know the percentage of campaign players because of that?

Bruh, by that logic the Switch would have been a flop. Lmao. 

I mean, Black Ops 4 is undoubtedly going to be the best selling COD this gen, so I don't think it's up to debate whether they'd sell more copies with campaign mode or BR mode ... but  that's because it's adding people to the fanbase not catering more to the existing fans (BR fans and people who weren't interested in BR until it got a massive AAA release). Certainly if there was a campaign mode, more than 5% would have played it. I mean ... 5% is the amount of people that platinum most games, so that's already 5% covered. 

Though it all goes back to the fact that honestly, Treyarch do not make good campaigns. 

People playing a campaign just because it's in the game isn't the same as people caring about said campaign's absence. And I used extrapolation, you should look that up. Anyway.. 5% of a, 20 million playerbase, for example, is one million. That's one million people who care about a singleplayer campaign not being in the game. Maybe that sounds better to you. To me, that sounds too much when it comes to COD, but whatever.

Also, the subreddits are made up of " hardcore" players? It's actually the opposite.
