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.

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. 

Probably more than 5% care but they don't care enough to skip the game if it were not included. Black Ops 3 the best selling CoD this gen only had 1.65% of players compete the campaign on Xbox one.

There are specialist missions with cutscenes and a story. Also the 4 zombies maps has a story.

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

Zombies can be played 100% offline.

That's right, the singleplayer campaign wouldn't be dropped if it wasn't played by just an irrelevant % of the playerbase. I don't know why people find it hard to understand this simple fact.

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.

I know what "extrapolation" is, you're just being too dramatic. 

I don't disagree with your point, I responded to this specific statement: "Yeah, that still doesn't prove people who actually and truly like COD buy the games for its singleplayer campaign" 

Which imo is a little too far, it's basically saying anyone who TRULY likes COD only buys it for x and not y ... almost elitist 

But it's not a big deal anyways, since I don't disagree that focusing on BR is going to be more profitable. 

People definitely cared more in the 7th gen lol ... MW trilogy

No. I usually play zombies by myself. It's more fun with other people but playing games with others is always more fun. It's still very enjoyable solo tho.

MW2 was the last one I enjoyed and put serious time into. Will be watching this but I'm sure the scores wilp drop.

I still would have wanted a tradicional single player, but its nice to know!

I havnt bought a call of duty game since Modern Warefare 2, a game I was good at with an average KD of 4+ but jeez have people gotten better and things have changed. I bought Blacks ops4 and I’m genuinely terrible at it, I very rearely get a positive KD and it just seems so much faster paced now. I’m still enjoying the game but I really need to improve, I guess it doesn’t help that people spend hours upon hours on it while I’ll play for 2-3 hours maximum, I can’t believe the level of most players, it’s as if they’ve spent 90% of their time since release on this game.

It definitely is the type of game where you need to be in a certain rhythm to do good and it's been a long time since MW2. You'll get there, just keep grinding :P.
